“Stopped by for the first time after a UL game last night. Food was awesome but what really made the stop was the Manager ,Joe. Joe was very friendly talked with us for about 15 minutes, very professional you could tell he enjoys his job. KOK, give this man a raise or promote him to GM because I can guarantee you are not going to find a more dedicated partner, or worker than this man. WAY TO GO JOE!!!“

“Me and my fiance went eat tonight. food was great but the bartender/server was horrible. her name was Miranda. No energy, no smile, was sarcastic when we ordered like we were ignorant and she just wasn't good. Would love to eat there again but definitely when she isn't working. !!!!!!“

“I took my kids and friend there on yesterday to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. After receiving our food, the waitress asked if everything was ok. I informed her that my shrimp was over cooked and was very hard to chew. She said she would inform the manager….we waited 8 minutes and no manager came. We watched him walk back and forth without ever acknowledging me. When the waitress passed back I asked her what did he say, she said oh, he said that how they cook it. Finally after 5 minutes or so he came, saw and said him self that my shrimp was overcooked and that he’ll be back. I waited and waited he never came back. I had the shrimp poboy that had a total of 5 and a half shrimp on it. It was like they took pieces of crust and stuck it between bread. My friend got up and stopped him to ask what’s going on because he never came back. He told her that I couldn’t be accommodated because I ate some it. They were all very unprofessional. I’ll never go back there. That definitely not how you handle business and the customer.“

“I searched places to eat on Google maps and chose to visit Zorbas which was approx a 4/5 min walk from the Doubletree hotel.
I walked in Zorbas and was pleasantly greeted by Esma. She was extremely helpful explaining the menu and went out her way to help me choose what was right for me. I was impressed with all the cuisine choices and chose the spicy feta cheese chicken. Awesome!
Von was fantastic in actually preparing this wonderful meal for take out (extra added). Esma gave me a sample to ensure what I ordered, was what I wanted to eat.
I highly recommend Zorbas and will definitely come back again and again!
Zorbas with the outstanding staff/food, was absolutely what I needed.
I appreciate the personal effort and quality of food that I received today.
Thank you!

“One of the great lunch locations anywhere. The menu is changed every week, and the chefs are amazing.

You have a front row seat around the giant kitchen area. You see your meals prepare right in front you every time.

The wine is selected just for the meals. From appetizers to entree, dessert and coffee… it is terrific.

The store has one of the best selections of great cookware of any place shopped.

For great dining anc great shopping, this is the place.“
