SecretNYC's Astoria Greek-food guide names Omonia in the same breath as Taverna Kyclades when discussing spots in the neighborhood known for drawing lines, specifically calling out its baklava (including a baklava cheesecake) and traditional sweets like touloumba and portokalopita (SecretNYC).
The guide recommends sticking to Omonia's bakery side rather than the attached restaurant for these dessert draws, suggesting the demand is concentrated at the counter/pastry-case rather than for table seating (SecretNYC).
