The food was incredible and the folks working there were friendly and great! The belly dancers and party atmosphere was fun. Only one minor drawback was that the music was a touch too loud for us. But that could have just been us; if you're ok with loud music, I highly recommend Taverna Opa.

Fun & good food. No shade in the extended outdoor seating, brutal sun & heat.
Taverna Opa - OrlandoResponded 7 days ago
We understand the heat can be a bit much at times. The extra seating was added recently to provide more opportunity for guests to dine without having to wait for a table. Unfortunately it is not all completely covered but maybe we can add some extra umbrellas! Glad you enjoyed your food and had fun!

Great place and yes, I would go back. However, I specifically selected this restaurant as they had lamb shank listed on the menu. When we got there and ordered they did not have any because ‘it was in short supply and they were unable to get it’. I call BS as I found it at my local grocery store today, in decent supply. I had the lamb chops which were amazing. Then also did not have Espresso after offering it as one of the coffees??? It is pretty loud, so conversation can be difficult, but the vibe is great, the belly dancer was fun and overall a good time was had.
Taverna Opa - OrlandoResponded on 5 May 2022
Hi Wendy, We are glad that you had fun! I am so sorry we are out of lamb shanks! It has been extremely hard to get supplies for us lately. I hope we see you again soon and that we will be able to provide you with the meal you are wanting! If you send us a message prior to coming I can check with you on if we have it or not!

Read Carefully both good and bad. We will start with the Good. The food and servive were excellent. Food tasted great and was reasonablly priced for I-Drive. We were a party of six and all stated they would go back but not inside. We would only eat outside. The belly dancers were very good and very engaging with te customers. Funny in that they threw thousands onf cocktail napkings in the air with the dancers, Confetti would have probably been easier. The Bad. This was a Greek resteraunt. I guess we were stupid to expect to hear Greek music with the entertainment. To put it mildly the music was deafening. More of what I would have expected at a college bar with dancing or a rave. It was impossible to talk to anyone at the table, My ears were still ringing on the hour long car ride.

Hi Dave, I am glad you enjoyed your food and that your server treated you all well! I am sorry to hear that you experience was hindered by the loud music.
