I know, it may seem as though patio weather has come and gone  -who wants to eat outside when it’s 100-plus degrees out? I for one enjoy the summer nights, and one of the best restaurants to spend them is Statos Greek Tavern on Webb Chapel.

The large patio has an upper deck, which has plenty of fans, lots of shaded greenery, white lights and HD TVs with surround sound. Stratos tends to get pretty rowdy at night, so if you’re not into the belly dancing and live music, the restaurant’s patio is the perfect retreat.

There’s half-price Greek wine after 5 p.m. on Wednesdays and Sundays. And they make a surprising good margarita in several different flavors.
