Enjoy the "outstanding" service and vibrant atmosphere, especially with outdoor seating. Highlights include the "OPA Chips" and creative cocktails. While occasional service delays occur, the overall dining experience is exceptional.

The food is authentic Greek and extremely well prepared. I mentioned the service first because the warmth, enthusiasm and level of attentiveness sets OPA apart from most restaurants.

My dinner companion had the lamb shank which was excellent! The noise level was extremely loud so I could barely hear my dinner companion during our conversation. The service was excellent as well. I will definitely return but hopefully find a quieter time to visit.
