"We hit Opa! for a Friday Date night this weekend and it did not disappoint. I was a bit disappointed when my wife chose Greek for dinner, since most places tend to be a bit mundane with the menu selections and a tad greasy with the food. But then we went to Opa! Let 's start with the cocktails, something I don 't normally associate with Greek restaurants. Opa! had a very interesting and varied cocktail and wine selection. I ordered an Argonaut a rum falernum version of a Mule or Dark Stormy. I 've been using Falernum to make sours at home (it is an allspice flavored liqueur but never would have thought to pair it with rum for a Dark Stormy. But I will now. The only disappointment was no copper mug, but I 'll get over that. One taste and my wife bailed on her white wine and ordered that for her second drink. I switched to red for my meal, and they had a great Zin by the glass (Seghesio , which many restaurants don 't offer. Winner! We had a saganaki appetizer (I mean, the place is called Opa! and sopped up all the cheese and lemon with some very warm and puffy pita slices. Next was the green Greek salad. They were kind enough to split it for us, and add olives and beets to mine. Excellent! We went pretty old school for our main courses, after all those apps. We both got pitas a Gyro for me and Falafel for her. Served on the same puffy pita bread, with a generous helping of Opa fries as a side. The fries had greek vinaigrette dressing and feta cheese crumbled on top. Quite tasty! The pitas had a good size portion of protein, onions, tomato and tzatzki sauce. No leftovers this night! Our waitress was incredibly friendly and helpful. The service was prompt without ever feeling rushed. The place was busy, considering we were there fairly early on a Friday night. We just missed the happy hour, which looked to have some pretty good deals. In all, we enjoyed Opa! There were so many traditional and non traditional options on the menu that looked great, so I 'll sure we will be back and mix it up a bit more next time. Opa!"
