Moved our daughter into college this week and stopped here for lunch! The restaurant is very open and airy. The staff was very kind and helpful, also very quick! We ordered several appetizers as we like to share! They were ALL very authentic and close to the region of Greece my family is from, so the flavors reminded me of my Yiayia i highly recommend this restaurant especially for it's authenticity! When we come back, I will definitely be trying their Pastitsio! Opá!! read more

Family dinner! We came here before going to the movies. First time, drinks were yummy! They do put cheese on a lot of the stuff, so next time I have to say no cheese. The Greek style fries were regular fries instead of the typical truffle fries, my family said those were okay! Service a little iffy, quite rude - at the end she literally asked us "so are you gonna come back?!" We were unsure how to answer by her delivery... I said yes, I liked the convenience of the location and the food. She then took my number and added it. We'll see.. read more

I had never had Greek food but I'm glad this place was my first time! It was phenomenal! We had the Greek fries which were addicting. A couple desserts that were great, and the pizzas were amazing honestly better than most pizza places I've gone to. Plenty of seating indoor and out and just a great atmosphere, I definitely need to check out their signature cocktails next time! read more

Opa Life Greek Cafe - 12" Mediterranean (amazing) - Greek Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

I have phenomenal service every time I walk in here. The food is delicious, especially the dolma! Other places would serve it from a can. It is delectable here, the olive oil tastes so good on the dolma. I also love the spanakopita, avgolemono soup, and hummus here. The best of all is the top tier service. The servers are always happy to make conversation and share laughs. read more

We decided to try Opa out after an event near by. It was packed... and I don't think the kitchen or wait staff were really prepared for the crowd. It took a really long time to order them an even longer wait for our food. We sat on the patio because it was a million degrees in side there were misters so it was nice and surprisingly way cooler than inside. The food was good the hummus was amazing and everything was fresh. If I was in the area I'd try them again I think it would have been a better experience if it wasn't so busy. read more

Have been coming here for years. Food quality has definitely taken a downward turn. Chicken was dry- again, sliders were super thin and overcooked, buns stale. I miss the days when Angie and Jerry ran it. read more

Delicious food and great staff! We came after a fitness event at the stadium and had a great time. We definitely overwhelmed the staff but they handled it with such a great attitude despite only having 3 servers for the entire (completely full) restaurant. Ambiance was cute and casual. We had the Greek pizza which was soo tasty and also tried the baklava cheesecake which was to die for. Definitely a great place for a quick bite! read more

Opa Life Greek Cafe - Soggy salad. Low quality. Gross. - Greek Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

Could've been a four, but missed a few things. Party of five. Two orders of falafel. Two burgers, one wrap. The fries, one "Greek" the other sweet potato, were fine. The burgers were judged, OK. The falafel pita was thick, lacked tzatziki sauce, were dry, and largely bereft of tomatoes (small barely identifiable chunks). Not juicy. A side order of hummus was also...OK. Had more cucumbers than pita for the hummus; one kalamata olive hidden. Service was fine. Overall value: Just OK. Nice clean facility. Just not enough value or flavor or panache. read more

The food was great. The table order every type of gyro and not a single person was not satisfied with their choice. The service was great. I waitress was patient and very friendly. She helped us select what we wanted. The ambience was very family driven. However, it seemed like during the evening it could feel like a sports bard. Highly recommended!! read more

Amazing service!! We came during a super busy time and they had great communication on how long the wait would be and once we were seated all the staff was super friendly and the food came out timely!! The food was amazing, pita bread was off the charts! read more

It's been a while since I've eaten at Opa and first time at this location. Menu is smaller. Service is good with a sport bar vibe. Had the gyro platter. Meat was good but a little on the dry side. Tzatziki had separated in its plastic container and the shoe string asparagus was grilled to a dried out texture. Their Greeks fries were excellent. Lots of choices in the area.

It's one of those restaurants that is a little confusing when you first walk in without explanation. There's a counter, there's a refrigerator, and there's a dining room. So where do I go? Apparently, you go to the counter and you are and then you go sit down and they bring the food out to you. There's really no explanation when you first come in though it looks like a regular restaurant it's set up like I said a little confusing. They do have wine, but it was fairly uncomfortable to drink wine in a place that seem like a fast food joint. Possibly some signage could help them. The food was very nondescript it was very generic, unfortunately I don't think I would return, but everyone has their own taste. read more

My go to place for a great meal and drinks ,food is always good and healthy for me lol and service is great. The vibe is so nice!

I wanted to like Opa more than I did. Staying in the area and out for dinner on a Monday night, Greek won out over the other choices at Westgate. Opa offers up standards (pitas, gyro, souvlaki, moussaka, et al) in an airy cafe setting. I ordered a platter: protein + pita + tzatziki + two sides, opting for gyro with veggies and salad. The salad and pita were the highlights of the dish: the tangy vinaigrette lending a brightness to the salad while the pita was fresh and soft. Unfortunately, the vegetables (squash and zucchini with shredded parmesan) were limp and the gyro greasy and too salty. On the plus side? Service was excellent read more

I wasn't sure if I really liked Greek food but after this visit I can say that I LIKE Greek food. I ordered the Philly Pita with Gyro meat. It was soooo delicious!! The meat was cooked to perfection, and all of the flavors went together so well. My friend ordered the other dish with the chicken. It was grilled & super juicy! They have outdoor seating that was super cute! And a bar inside as well. read more

First visit experience: Upon arrival, I waited at the front to be seated and was briefly told "someone will be with you in a minute" in a rushed, unwelcoming manner, without a greeting or smile. Shortly after, your server who was the only one working approached us with a warm glowing smile, ,greeted us politely despite having food in her hands, immediately made us feel welcome. She was attentive, professional, and truly a highlight of our visit. I later learned that the initial individual was the manager, which was disappointing, as I did not observe her assisting the server or engaging with guest. The only reason I am leaving a 4-star review and not a 3 is because of the excellent service provided by your server. While the service from your server was excellent and appreciated, I hope future visits reflect stronger leadership support, as the level of engagement is what elevates a restaurant experience to 5 stars. Over all I recommend this place A Must Try. read more

It has been a good while (2 years) since I have been to Opa Life Greek. It is best to look at current reviews (recent reviews). I do not live in Peoria AZ or Phoenix. The food was always tasty and fresh (then). read more

While out and about on Saturday afternoon we decided to stop by west gate for some drinks and possible food. Our first stop was a dud and the music so loud our ears needed time to calm. We saw Opa Life and no wait so we decided to give it a try. We were greeted and seated right away. The noise level was great and a few TV's at the bar were playing sports. The menu is small, but had some great options. We weren't too hungry as we'd ate earlier in the day so we decided to share the chicken souvlaki skewer which comes with two sides. We chose the Greek salad and rice. We ordered some beer and water. Beer was cold and water refreshing. Our food came out quick and was plated phenomenally. From the first bite to the last it was all delicious. I'm so surprised at the lack of customers. It's bright and clean inside, service was good and we had no issues. The other patrons inside seemed happy as well. This was our first time here and of course I've not tried other menu items, but I felt portions were huge and enjoyed it. The servers I will say looked bored, one sitting chatting with someone not sure if customers or owner, others just grouped near the front. Hopefully it's not this slow everyday. read more

The food and the ambiance is so good and relaxing on the patio next to the fireplace that we didn't want to leave after finishing the delicious dinner! Charlie made us feel special and Chef Justin cooked a super-Moussaka for me and a scrumptious Gyro plate Thank you Opa Life Greek Cafe and the entire team! Highly recommend dining here! read more

Ambiance was nice on the patio, stopped in for a bite. Ordered the Moussaka with the Greek salad with crown royal on the rocks. Food was ok not the normal way that I have seen this prepared. Service was not the best especially when the closed the patio door on me after I paid my check. I still had a full drink and food on my plate. They were also not closing for another hour. I won't be back which is sad because it's in a very busy area. read more

I popped in here with a group of 6 on a busy Saturday night and got in pretty quickly. The staff were friendly though we didn't get a ton of service. I ordered water and the gyro plate. The food was good - nothing extraordinary. The Greek fries were pretty plain from other Greek restaurants I've been to. The kicker for me was price. Felt a bit steep for what I got. But I did walk away full. Overall a decent option but walked away feeling like "meh! I'd eat here again but not seek it out" read more

We stopped here as our 2nd stop of the night in Glendale on Saturday the 16th for our weekend trip to watch the 49ers/Cardinals game. This place has a super cool staff, and what I would call Greek bar food. We had a pizza with gyro on it, and was a cool idea. The drinks & food were reasonably priced, the location can't be beat, right on the corner of what starts countless bars/restaurants past the movie theater. We would 100% return here when we go back to Glendale someday. read more

Came here one evening while visiting the entertainment district. Not many customers so I would have thought the service would have been a little more attentive. Frequent waiting for server to take our orders, check on our drinks, etc. Ordered the flaming haloumi (fried cheese) appetizer. The bottom was completely burned and charcoal. Unfortunate as I was looking forward to it since having it at other Greek restaurants and in Greece. Also ordered the ouzo lemonade which was really good and refreshing. Given the haloumi and service, we left after finishing both. read more

It's been a while since I reviewed here...and honestly, I hadn't gone back since then. But, hubby decided to pick up dinner and have me give it another go. He got me the lamb skewers with their Greek fries. I have to say, the lamb was tender and really good. I also liked the charred green peppers mixed onto the skewer. And, the Greek fries were a delight! My only issue is, all the fixin's are on the top and underneath are lots of bland, plain fries. It would be nice for them to be mixed together, since the cheese kinda melts and it's hard to mix it up once it's done that. I do like the sauce over the top, though. Hubby got the chicken skewers and was a bit disappointed, due to them being very dry and overcooked. However, he loves their mixed veggies (so do I). We've ordered take out from here a couple times and, so far, I'm very happy with it. read more

We recently ate at Opa Life Greek Cafe before seeing "Stars on Ice" at Gila River Arena. My friends and I were originally planning on going to Ike's Sandwiches at Westgate, but they were closed when we got there at 6:00 pm. We decided to give Opa Life Greek Cafe a try, since it is a quick-serve restaurant versus a sit-down restaurant and we didn't have a lot of extra time. We looked at menus while we waited in line to order. Their prices seemed quite reasonable, which was fantastic. The cashier was very friendly and helpful and answered our many questions when we were ordering. I ordered the veggie wrap with Greek fries and my boyfriend ordered the gyro wrap with Greek fries. We figured that we had better try the Greek fries at a Greek restaurant, right? We were not disappointed. The Greek fries were topped with feta cheese and had lots of garlic flavor. Delicious! Both of our wraps were large and satisfying. The food was delivered to our table by a friendly staff member within 10 minutes of ordering. He even brought extra tzatziki sauce to me when I asked for some. The restaurant was quite busy while we were there. The manager made sure to stop by every table to see how everything tasted. All in all, an excellent experience! We were in and out with plenty of time to get to the show on time. read more

I enjoy this spot. I've gone since around the time it opened, however it's been a few years since then and it's changed a bit. The portions are very decent. Their Greek fries are probably my favorite thing other than the baklava cheesecake. However the service was quite slow, and while the staff were friendly, for the most part they were inattentive. Tables weren't very clean, and management seemed to be focused on everything else besides the restaurant. It's a shame for me since I enjoy their food, and there are so many other spots at Westgate now, that I'm concerned people will go elsewhere. To be quite honest, we almost left before finally ordering. read more

Stopped in here for lunch and had the grilled chicken entrée. The food was good. The chicken was a little dry and nothing exceptional.

Loved the hummus platter with pitas and cucumber. Super tasty. Split the gyro meat pita which had lots of fresh veggies on it. Fries were crispy and hot! Staff all pleasant.

Absolutely loved it. I had the chicken kabob my husband had the lamb. Service was great, food was great. We will be back

I feel bad when I have to write negative reviews, but it's only fair to give this place 1 star. We have been to Opa life Greek cafe's other location, so I was very excited about my meal. The plate is identical to what I always have at Opa, but the taste is not comparable to other locations. Very salty and no other flavor or spice! It literally felt like eating salt. I could eat only a few bites before I felt sick. read more

Huge miscommunication today but it was definitely made up for by great customer service. It's a long story how my order got messed up but the people working here did a great job of fixing it and making sure my friend and I were taken cared of. I ordered a chicken pita with greek fries. The pita had marinated chicken, lettuce, tomatoes and tzatziki sauce. The Greek fries had a sauce on them with feta cheese and another type of shredded cheese. Both were delicious! My friend ordered a pepperoni pizza. For a Greek place, they make pretty decent pizzas! Overall, it was a good experience. The patio seating was nice to sit in and we were checked on often to make sure our food was good etc. read more

I like Greek food a lot, but this place fell short. I do not like when places use the crumbled feta. It's doesn't taste as good. That was the first miss... the gyro was very bland as well. My daughter did get fries and a chicken Caesar wrap - those were both good. read more
