While I go to restaurants to eat, the restaurant decor to me is equally important for a great experience. This restaurant is in a great high-ceiling room with "trees", clay pots, beautiful bright and simple Greek decor which already puts you in the mood. I have several times had the three-dip tasting menu, hummus, tzatziki and taramasalata with pita bread,... More

Stopped by at 1:00 for lunch, the place was packed. Had the chicken souvlaki lunch special which included rice and a greek salad. Very tasty and filling. Service was great too.

Great atmosphere, great food and would have rated higher....but unfortunately the service was very very slow and poor. Our waitress did not even offer us water until we had sat waiting for 15 minutes for the menus to be brought.

A note that Opa is now called Ela, and is still delicious. One of the best places to eat in town. A warm atmosphere combines with amazing food with something for anyone.

This was my first return to Opa or now Ela in about 8 years. So you can guess I wasn't very impressed the first time. We started with a selection of dips including hummus, tzaziki, all of these were very flavourful and the Greek pita they were served with was fresh and delicious. I had a bottle of Keith's with...

One of our favs for City trips :) Never tried Greek food before? Go here. No need to worry about anything super spicey, just ask. Want it more spicey? Just ask. Staff is prompt, and very hospitable. Our kids aren't such big fans - they're more the chicken nugget and fries types, though. Definitely a little more of a grown... More

Opa! is now Ela! It seems there was a dispute over The name with a Calgary based restaurant chain of the same name. I can't claim to be an expert but I have had better Greek food. Now the food is good but there is a tendency to "dumb down" food in Nova Scotia due to the provincial nature of... More
