Opa!: Reviews & Ratings
I had the Chicken Pita with Wild Rice Pilaf and Fava with Bread. The pita was awesome, I wasn’t too wild for the rice though. Overall, great tasting food. My friends plates were also delicious. Nice friendly staff, congrats to server Hilary, she is having her first baby boy! :)
Amazing place with quality greek food and top notch service. The best part was following the recommendation from Anthony (our attendant) and get the Galaktoboureko for dessert - so good! All the food was pretty tasty but I'm sure I'll be back just for the dessert at some point in my life :)
We came to the restaurant pretty late, around 8 but was still able to get seats. Service was a bit slow but the servers were really nice. The food was great and the portions were generous especially the Gyro platter. The ambience was relaxing with good lighting. There was heaters for outdoor seating.
Previous reviews and Thrillist recommended this place for their lamb chops. They don't disappoint. I came on a late Sunday afternoon and the place was still super busy at 2 pm. The service was fast and my food arrived fresh and piping hot. My lamb chops were moist and the meat was easy to tear into. It paired really well with a side of noodles and the corn. It's a big portion and worth the visit.
Dinner and drinks at the bar. The "Acropolis" cocktail awesome. Also a Manhattan with aged Woodford Reserve satisfies. Seafood appetizer, Greek green salad and steak skewer were all excellent. Fun place.
Great food! Food had lots of flavor and was fresh. The beef souvlaki was so tender I could fit it with a fork. The staff was friendly, attentive and helpful.
My first time trying Opa, loved the food here. The place and ambience are nice, they have a decent bar but the food was amazing. We had the zucchini fries with avocado dip. The dip was fantastic. For main course we had the rustic veggie flat bread which was very well made in wood oven. Second entree we tried was special of season called vegetable briam, which was a combo of well cooked veggies, aka delicious. The staff is very friendly and service is great. Plus the location is really good
Decorated spot with savory greek dishes. The waiters were friendly and offered recommendations if you aren't sure. Food: I ordered the "Pasticio" which reminded me of lasagna with noodle for pasta and nutmeg as an herb. It was very tasty and a pretty safe dish to order for meat lovers. Service: Regular check-ups, nice recommendations, very helpful waiters! Overall, I would come back. If there was only one thing I would order it would be the "Gyro Fries."

As a food reviewer of Res Menu, I had the pleasure of sampling some of the delectable dishes at Opa!. The Opa Fries were a standout for me, with freshly sliced kennebec potatoes topped with crumbled feta cheese and their signature Opa! Vinaigrette. The Gyro Fries were equally as impressive, combining gyro meat, feta cheese, and a fiery feta dip for an addictive flavor experience.
