Taverna Opa Delray

The food that was served to the table was great but the service was horrible! We were ignored most of the evening and it was hot because the air conditioning wasn’t working right they said. I was dying for a glass of water and the server didn’t come. I went to the bar and waited while staff stood around. It was too loud for them to hear me and when someone finally came over, she shot me a nasty look. She was not happy about having to fill my water cup. Then we waited for over 20 minutes for the check. I wanted to pay right away but again was ignored. I asked another waitress but she said she couldn’t help. I had to go to the back of the restaurant twice to get someone to finally take my card. I’ve been here before and it was never this bad. We also ordered a burger and fries to go. We should have looked before we left bc it was burnt and not edible and the fries were soggy. It was my birthday dinner too. Also, valet service was terrible. Wr waited over 25 min to get the car.

I had a great experience thanks to Sofia! What a loving hard working lady even tho the place was busy she still managed to take care of us. Food was okay but she made the experience memorable.

Arrived for a 5:30pm reservation. 2 tables were seated inside, a few customers at bar. A few tables outside. We were not treated for about 30min and finally when a server did come over he simply stated there was a “shift change” and walked away. Rather odd that he wouldn't even take a drink order for whatever server was coming in or behind. Our server finally arrived to take our order after 45min of us being seated. We were obviously ready for our order to be taken so we gave a drink and food order. Drinks took another 15min. Prior to drinks arriving we debated leaving based on this experience and as we were about to get up the drinks arrived. Appetizer (olives and feta) was what you would expect. Main entrees were bland all around (filet mignon, beef kabobs, lamb chops). A disappointing Mother's Day dinner to say the least. Won't likely repeat.

So a very noisy place with a Turkish belly dancer v loud music in a Greek Restaurant simply does not work wrong culture mix was delayed waiting for entree for 1 hr having to listen to that ... Food was good and good value we made res and still had to wait even though empty tables ...

The food ranged from delicious (Spanikopita) to meh my allegedly grilled shrimp definitely were not grilled and weren't that tasty. Our waiter, Trevor, was terrific and delightful, including returning my wine which I knew wasn't what I had ordered and I was right.
