Reviews
"The Greek-style atmosphere makes for a fun date. Grapes on vines, paintings and murals, decor; it's just all around inviting, warm, and fun. We got Pasta Primavera and the Trio. For an appetizer; bruschetta. I felt the bruschetta was lacking in flavor...as if there wasn't enough basil or something. It just seemed bland. A greek side salad and a creamy parmesan side salad. The creamy parmesan was amazing. I recommend getting some on the side to dip the garlic knots (which are delightful) into. Pasta Primavera was okay, nothing special, but no complaints. It was expected. The Trio. Let's begin with the chicken. Flavorful, perfect crisp, golden brown, delicate size, and plentiful. The fettuccine was quite delicious; creamy sauce and al dente noodles. The penne with meatball...the meatball was not to my liking, a little more well done for me, but it wasn't terrible. The marinara sauce was exceptional. I've not had a good red sauce for too long and found Opa!s to be quite good. The penne was perfect al dente, as all the noodles were. Overall, a great place for a date or an evening of culture. I will be returning to try the buffet so I can sample more dishes."
"Great service and excellent food that is homemade and fresh. Had two appetizers and shared the Greek Trio with added side of pasta. Total was $45. We left stuffed and will definitely be back"
"Amazing food! Between our family we tried the Greek, Italian, and children’s menu. Everyone enjoyed their food and we’re definitely going back! I got the Souvlaki Platter with Chicken and Shrimp which I highly recommend."
"December 2023 update: Still highly recommended! Having lunch at Opa monthly this past year and choosing both the menu and buffet options, every single time the food has been great, service has been friendly and excellent, and everything has gone well. Food, service, and atmosphere is all beyond excellent. Perfect for business lunch, family dinner, or a date. Highly recommended."
"Went here for a birthday dinner, party of 12. Restaurant was packed and service was outstanding. Our waitress ran around and kept up with all of the request and food orders without forgetting anything. Stopped by multiple times throughout dinner to make sure everything was good. Food was also prepared timely and everything was delicious. Will definitely return in the future. The restaurant was well decorated and there was a good sized patio outside."
