Whether you wander the lower reaches of
Ocean Drive alone or with a gaggle of giggling girlfriends, Taverna Opa
wants you to hop up on the table and shake your tail feathers. This Big
Fat Greek Wedding of a restaurant is family friendly, first date fun and
great for groups of revelers looking for a casual atmosphere that always
leads to some wild Photo Moments. You will definitely want to have a
camera ready when one of the sexy-friendly servers coaxes the shy gal in
your party to down a shot of ouzo and break a few plates for the crowd.
OPA! Is the chant that gets everyone up and dancing and makes for happy
memories long after the meal is done.
With traditional Greek fare from roast
lamb to freshly grilled fish, the best options are the "mezze" -
appetizer portions of greek salad, spinach pies and garlicky hummus
served family-style to get the meal started. As the evening progresses,
the music gets louder and the crowd more rowdy. This is no place for a
serious business conversation or an intimate reunion. Everyone in the
restaurant starts to feel the energy and excitement of the Greek Islands
when South Beach moves to the rhythms of Santorini. OPA!
