Cafe Zorba

Review: Overpriced, Underwhelming, and Forgotten

Dropped $56 on two entrées here and they somehow managed to forget one of them. Two entrées. That’s it. Hard to imagine how that slips through the cracks, but it did. When the missing dish finally showed up, it was as uninspired as the rest of the meal.

Most of the food was painfully average. The dips were bland, the sides tasted like an afterthought, and nothing carried the bright, bold flavors Greek food is known for. The only thing worth chewing on were the lamb chops—tender, seasoned properly, and clearly the lone item the kitchen knows how to execute. Everything else? Forgettable at best.

Service was just as bad as the food. Long waits, zero attentiveness, and not a hint of hospitality. Empty glasses sat untouched, and when the staff did appear, they acted like refilling water or checking an order was asking too much.

For $56, I expected at least competence. What I got was mediocrity with a side of indifference. If you’re craving for Greek, do yourself a favor and order from a food truck instead. How they got to 4.4 stars is beyond me!!

This place has the worst customer service I have seen to date! I ordered the other night, got canceled they turned the driver away. Tonight we had 30mins maybe 40 before closed and the guy met us at the door. When I questioned him he said it was because he had to clean the grill. I get cleaning is a thing but it’s typically once the place is closed not 30 to 40 mins early! I DO NOT RECOMMEND

Worst customer service!!! We went there 30 minutes before closing and were turned away because he had to clean the grill. I wasn’t aware 9pm closing means 830 you can’t get food. I do not recommend this place

Staff is very kind. Especially one of the cooks with the long hair. Didn’t mind giving me extra sauce and made some good food recommendations. They even wrote a note on my food container to my wife to get me out the dog house and I didn’t even ask for it. Much appreciated! The food was awesome too, my wife, daughter and I enjoyed it. Happy wife, happy life right! Anyways, I’m headed to the bedroom ;-)

Food had no flavor. Chicken was under cooked dark thigh meat and greasy . Very impersonal reception when placing order. Loud talking by owner when eating. Banging in the back when eating. Atmosphere was very uncomfortable. I know Greek food and this was the worst representation of it I have ever had. I took three bites of the chicken, bland rice and tasteless salad and left the food on the table. Went to another restaurant to eat. Very confused why this place has many high star ratings? Avoid this place.

Stopped in for a late dinner while in town visiting family. My 3 daughters and myself thoroughly enjoyed the food, especially the homemade Baklava. Everything was delicious and the family that owns/operates the restaurant is absolutely beautiful inside and out. We'll definitely visit when in the area again.
