Great authentic Greek experience!

by cuisineaficionado

We were impressed from the second we were greeted. We sat down on a lovely outdoor table shaded by a nice umbrella. The indoor atmosphere also appeared to hold a nice ambiance. The waiters were friendly, helpful, and quick! Service was excellent and so was the food, minus one slightly burnt pita. The Spinach spicy feta cheese spread was fantastic! We also thoroughly enjoyed the mussels, calamari, and hummus. Would highly recommend if you would like some authentic Greek food, atmosphere and people.

I wish I could recommend

by millerdj

Zorba's, I want so much to like you. But alas I cannot. You delight my carnivorous eyes with numerous meat choices, but then you bring me hopelessly overcooked skewers of spiced meat and charge me $28 for it. You coax me in on a weekday evening with your tantalizing oversized display of tasty gyros and kabobs, but them leave me crestfallen that you don't serve these after lunchtime. What reasoning could possibly lie behind this? You should add another neon sign to your already glowing neon store front that reads "gyros/no gyros," like a Mediterranean motel. For now, I will look for Greek cuisine at window vendors and my aunt Monica's kitchen.

  • Pros: service, atmosphere
  • Cons: pricey, meat often overcooked
