  • "This was def a great place to rest before the comedy show on Sunday, awesome service. I normally don't like hummus but this restaurant's hummus is the best!"
    Dined on 3/2/2014
  • "Although the entrees were amazing, the saganaki appetizer was very disappointing. It was also frustrating the number of times the server got Iced Tea and Coke confused...with our initial order and during refills. It appeared that she gave up as she just left a pitcher at the table midway through the meal."

  • "Taverna OPA is always a favorite place to bring visitors, family and friends. The food is out of this world delicious and the high entertaining atmosphere makes you want to jump out of your chair and join in the fun!"

  • "We had an absolute blast at Taverna Opa!! Food was terrific and there was plenty of it on all plates. The belly dancer and the rest of the staff were energetic and kept the entire crowd entertained! Lots of dancing on tables and throwing of napkins made the noise level tolerable. We were entertained and well fed and will certainly return!!"

  • "I've spent more than 6 months in Greece, and rarely find Greek restaurants in the US with authentic food. The Xoriatiki (village salad) came just like it does in a village in Greece, with deep red, ripe and delicious tomatoes. The mousaka was excellent, and the service was excellent. Highly recommended."

  • "We decided to go to Taverna Opa for a Singles Valintines night out. This place was fun, energetic, unique, and delicious. This is one of my new favorite places. I will deff be back. It is very kid and family friendly yet still fun for a date night or singles night. I don't know about day time or weekdays but if you like it quite and mellow this place prob isn't for you. Bring danceing shoes....you will prob be on the table by the end of the night."

  • "We celebrated my husband birthday, lamb was so good and gyros is so so tender, calamari was perfectly cook . Except my chicken kabob it was very dry inside and outside. its very expensive for the amount of food they give you."

  • "I went to opt with guest from out of town this past weekend. . We all had a blast, both adults and kids. I would definitely recommend this restaurant especially for groups."
    Dined on 2/1/2014
  • "Food was decent, nothing special. Mixed drinks, we had to send back because mojito tasted like Sprite, no alcohol in it at all. We went both pitchers back and they redid them. Place is way too loud, could not even hear person next to me unless we screamed. Good to have loud at times only to dance, but not all night. Dessert was awful."

  • "I took my mom for her birthday. She absolutely loved it! So much fun & lots of dancing! We'll definitely be back!"
    Dined on 1/18/2014
  • "Used to love this place and always looked forward to a fun evening at Opa! Unfortunately the entertainment budget has apparently disappeared, and the primary goal is customer churn. Move you in and out before you realize the reason you chose Opa never materialized. With that said...food is still excellent and the serving staff efficient. If my expectation wasn't set around the entertainment it would have otherwise been a good meal."
    Dined on 1/18/2014
  • "This place in pointe Orlando is quite the find, You can easily walk pass it with out even realizing it. Yet, once you enter it's like a spendid trip to another world, music is live and vibrant, belly dancers are on the tables with customers young and old alike with everybody cheering and jeering. Food was amazing. pricing was reasonable. My personal favorite was the hummas freshly made a la cart. feels lighter and healthier than any store brought."
    Dined on 1/16/2014
  • "Awesome food! I got the 33$ per person group meal the lamb was to die for very juicy and chicken and all veggies were delicious! Even the coffee was yummy! The dancer was amazing just need more than one belly dancer, it's very loud there but fun ambience! Strongly recommend! Greek food is yummy!"
    Dined on 1/5/2014
  • "Really enjoyed this place and will return. We have eaten at Acropolis Greek Taverna in Riverview, FL (Tampa/Brandon area) and thought this would be the same. There are some similarities like the belly dancing girl and the throwing of the napkins but the atmosphere is different the way the tables are very close together and the menu is different. I had the Greek Paella which was delicious! Others at the table had a Gyro, Kleftiko, Dolmades (Stuffed Grape Leaves) and Hummus with pita bread. Everything was very good. The belly dancer was great. She really worked the room and after doing her routine she stayed out and got the diners involved, some even getting on the table tops. Children and adults really enjoyed this."
    Dined on 12/31/2013
  • "What a welcome break from the chain restaurants! Food was excellent, and portions generous. Greek music was pulsing through a high end sound system that made it seem live. Seating was taverna style in long tables. And those tables were strong enough to support dancers!"
    Dined on 1/1/2014
  • "My wife and I planned a night out with three other couples for New Years Eve. We had been to Tavern Opa with our children before and enjoyed it. We were not disappointed! We had a great time - Atmosphere was energetic and food was excellent. Our friends are still talking about the great food and the fun that they had."

  • "We requested when we reserved to be in the main dinning area which didn't happen. We also asked for my 8year old to dance with the belly dancer which took about 45 min for her to come back. We have been twice in a month and the first time we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The second time was good but it didn't compare to the first time."
    Dined on 12/27/2013
  • "This place is a great place to take friends and have fun!Food is not a great deal but good, service is average. But is loud, fun and fun!"

  • "The resturant was wonder and a great experience we have already made reservations for the entire family in a few weeks"
    Dined on 12/7/2013
  • "We ordered the hot mezze platter and the grouper plaki from our outdoor seats. The music, especially during the live entertainment portion, must have boomed through the shopping center but it made for a fun atmosphere, especially for those inside. With entrees costing at least $20 each I found the quality to fall a bit short, with the mezzo platter especially, but the service and grind your own "hummus" we're nice touches in chain-ridden Orlando. Overall I was hoping for the food to be a bit lighter and more grilled from the descriptions but that might be my CA bias."

  • "Great for kids adults of all ages. Table dancing by all. Go here and you will love it great red sangria too"

  • "Taverna Opa is an excellent restaurant for special celebrations such as birthdays, anniversaries, etc.. They have lots of fun, bellydancers and a very special attention. It is safe for families with children."
    Dined on 11/24/2013
  • "Dined at this restaurant Friday night. We enjoyed sitting outside (I have to admit inside looked at little too noisy for our taste), and enjoyed delicious Greek food. The waiter was very friendly. He was attentive at the beginning, but toward the end of our meal, his was way too busy and practically disappeared from our sight. The restaurant should seriously consider increasing the number of the wait staff on the weekend. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our dining experience at this restaurant."
    Dined on 11/22/2013
  • "Great, fun restaurant. But beware, it is very loud!"
    Dined on 11/19/2013
  • "My sister and I were in the mood for Greek Food and were not disappointed. The food was excellent, and the people watching great. I don't usually care for loud crazy crowded places, but thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Taverna Opa and would recommend it to anyone looking for great food. I would let everyone know that it is loud and energetic, but if you go in with the attitude that you will have fun, you will. Plus you will have a wonderful dinner to boot. This place is especially fun for larger groups and parties. Loved the belly dancers."
    Dined on 11/23/2013
  • "Superb Greek cuisine; flavorful, tender, fresh. Indoors and outdoors are almost like two different restaurants when it comes to atmosphere - indoors there is music and napkin throwing. Outdoors you get a quieter version of the music, and the quieter ambiance of the patio area. Fantastically stocked bar. Very pleasant host and quick courteous server. Definitely recommend!"
    Dined on 11/12/2013
  • "Taverna Opa is a totally fun way to spend the evening. The food was very good and the atmosphere was really terrific. I've eaten here twice now and my only complaint is that the bar switches wines after having ordered a few. It happened both times. I ordered glasses of Pinot Noir both times, but after a couple, I got the house Cabernet. It was clearly not what I had been drinking. I have no idea why they think they can get away with this, but aware that this does happen."

  • "This place was rocking all night. The food was great and the energetic aumbience was unlike anything else."
