Taverna Opa

Five of us stopped in for lunch today. I ordered an ice tea and they brought an ice coffee. The server quickly replaced once I brought to her attention. I was given a refill and Yep… Ice coffee!
One of us ordered a Bloody Mary and it was not good, I’ve never seen my friend order a drink and NOT finish it!
We had a 9 year old that ordered chicken strips, which he lives on but would not eat them. We tried them and they were very dry.
Greek salad was good, not to much could go wrong with that. Will not go back.

Made a reservation about a month in advance for 5 people, requesting an outside table. When we arrived, the hostess informed us that we would have to sit inside. We asked to speak to a manager, and the hostess said he was «out back smoking a cigarette, and couldn’t come speak with us.»
Outside, there were 4 open four-​tops. 2 of these tables were conveniently located next to each other, and could have been pushed together to accommodate our party. The manager, apparently finished with his cigarette, arrived and refused to push two tables together, first saying that it would create a «fire hazard» (bullshit, that absolutely would not constitute a fire hazard) and then saying that «new city ordinances» prevented him from seating us together at one table (I took some time this morning to review the municipal code, and found this was also bullshit. The code says you can’t block the sidewalk. The two tables were both located against the restaurant. There 100% without a doubt would be no code violation from pushing them together, as neither the tables nor the chairs would be located in the sidewalk right of way.)
We left, and ate across the street (where tables were pushed together to accommodate our party.)
Very disappointing experience. Hostess was rude, manager seemed confused and was not accommodating. Food is always so great here — really disappointed with the customer service.

We love the food here but the service is pretty bad and the place always looks very dirty! It is very loud but the atmosphere is super fun so it’s worth it… but I still haven’t gotten on a table:)

This place was great. We had a big group and only ordered appetizers (about 10 of them)! Everything was delicious. We love greek food, and this restaurant certainly knows what it’s doing in the kitchen. The lamb was especially tasty, and the homemade hummus was awesome. The service was fantastic, too. Can’t wait to return!

We returned ounce again to Opa tonight even if it was chille, we had an excellent evening with new friends and our excellent service from Miles!
We had grilled octopus exquisit, mousaka, eggplant Opa, good wine and enjoyed Miles enough to invite him to have a glass of wine with us which he acceptep!
A pleasant evening with peasant people and excellent food, and of course an excellent service from Miles thank you!
We will be back soon :))

No one here for brunch? Sadly, we figured out why… The service took forever to seat us in empty room, the service was very slow, the service forgot half of the order, the coffee tasted like gas station quality, the table was sticky (was it cleaned), the seafood was oily to hide the flavor, the hummus arrived in overused wooden churn, soda drinks were watered down with ice, we had to find our own condiments from another table, gyro meat was leathery, and the list went on and on. We have been here once before and had been snubbed by the service before. But really? The food had soon turned sour to? Shucks. I once recommended this place but sadly, now have to change my mind. The wait time maybe long for other grand restaurants on same street, as a customer you should expect better things, so better to wait and be patient at another restaurant.

First off I will say that we came here on Valentine’s Day with my family. It was a bit rough service wise from the start. The hostess couldn’t find our reservation and ended up seating is in a corner in the back room of the restaurant. We got the free VIP cold platter (my uncle had a VIP card). I really liked the spicy feta spread, the fresh hummus and of course the warm pitas. We then ordered our meals and the ‘flaming cheese’ as an app. This is where things got a bit messy. We were waiting a decent amount of time for the food, and when the main meal finally came, there were a few mistakes on the orders. We then realized that we never got the flaming cheese! We brought this up to the waiter and he said he would be ‘right back with it’, but we ended up finishing our meals and still waiting for the cheese. Once the cheese came we wanted pitas but by the time the pitas came, the cheese was cold. I would give the food here 4 stars, but the service 1 star for the night given the very slow and disorganized service.

My favorite place to surprise my out of town guests with great food and a fun atmosphere. Belly dancing on the bar and great assortment of apps to share for the table. Some nice reasonable Greek wines to try and friendly service.

This was our first visit. Food was very good except the hummus. I would have rated a 4 star but the service was extremely slow. Our waitress was very nice but she had way too many tables. I would give them a 2^nd chance because of the food and would hope the service was faster.

Very good food but the service left a lot to be desired. They unnecessarily rushed us when the restaurant was mostly empty and we were ordering a steady stream of appetizers and wine, and their attitude was unfriendly. Especially towards my kids.

From NYC. This was the single worst experience I have ever had. Starting with the two hostesses. One with a lot of curly hair and the other with tats. They have no business being front of the house. They were simply not nice, friendly or professional. They just didn’t care. The bartender was three days on the job and very nice.
The two owners were nasty and didn’t care that six guests were unhappy.
We sat and got cold pita and hummus and that was it for 35 minutes. Asked for drinks for a while and they came piece meal.
While the waiter was very nice it was his third day and was overwhelmed.
The table next to us has a huge problem and also had an argument with the owner.
The room temp was way to hot and uncomfortable.
I am from out of town but my local friends also had lousy experiences and won’t go back
Never had food because we were tired of waiting for the apps, tired of the awful service and left.
Stay away and give your money and time to restauranteurs who care. These guys at taverna don’t care, aren’t nice and don’t deserve to be in business

Terrible. Reso at 6:30. Seated at 7:30. Dinner arrived 8:45. Check took 15 minutes to return after card tendered. Slow, slow, slow and loud to boot. Couldn’t hear anyone at the table. Food hard to judge as the plates came out at random times and in the wrong order. Chicken overdone.

Hh food ok, bar service horrible! ! Have no idea how this lady still has a job. Never been so turned off from a restaurant ever.

Food is good, service was quick and its in a great location.
I have never been to a place so loud in my life. I get the Greek culture and everything, but at 7pm on a Wednesday if I see 4 dudes dancing on tables throwing napkins in the air, with music so loud you can’t even hear it is a bit much.
Food is good, I’d rate the food a ⁴⁄₅ but if you are looking for a quiet evening there are other options.

FUN Saturday night ! Good food ! Good drinks ! Great Belly Dancer ! Stuff pepper delicious ! Spinach pie not like my Moms Which is a good thing

This place is all about the vibe. Celebrated my daughter’s 17^th with her friends. Was a lot of fun: dancing on the tables, throwing napkins, belly dancing.
You don’t really expect much of the food but you will be surprised at how good it is. All the appetizers are excellent and there are so many it’s difficult to choose.
Main dishes were great too and for dessert the best chocolate cheesecake.
Wait staff were exceptional and the manager was involved and helpful too.
If you’re celebrating this is the place to go. Will be enjoyed by all ages.

I have continuously had great food here. I mostly go for their delicious and great priced appetizers and meals! Lots of protein!!! Happy Hour is now until 8 pm i just found out. yay! an hour later than everyone else. that’s a huge plus down here.
Andre the bartender makes the best drinks and they have a good, full bar! cant go wrong.

This place was great! We were in town for Labor Day weekend and decided to catch happy hour here. They treated us like family and everyone who works here is incredibly hospitable– they treat you like family. Raya really made our evening great!
Will definitely make it back here whenever we get a chance.

Awesome bartender, service, food, and drinks!!! Not to pricey. Clean place. I will come back for sure. The gyro was delicious. Nancy did a great job!!!

SO UNDERWHELMED!
1) they raised happy hour prices
2) they raised happy hour prices
3) they raised happy hour prices
4) the hummus isn’t as good as it once was
5) we weren’t actually impressed with any of the food– the ceviche and grilled calamari were more like super drenched salads, the beef tips are off the menu… it’s just not what it used to be.
EXCELLENT service, though!
