Iossif (we call him Joe!) Gressis has been around the restaurant business his entire life. The Gressis family, led by their (and our company’s) matriarch, Asimina, became a permanent part of the Charles County restaurant community in 2002, when they opened Ouzo’s Greek and Regional Cuisine in La Plata. Ouzo’s provided a regional culinary experience relatively unique to Charles County at the time.

Over time, the need for a better location was becoming more apparent, and the family found one when Galazio Restaurant opened in March 2014, combining the family’s traditional recipes from Ouzo’s with a new energy. Over the past six years, Galazio has grown to be one of the most buzzed about restaurants in Southern Maryland! Come by and see for yourself!
