When I walked in, I was immediately greeted by who I’m assuming is the owner. Extremely nice lady who helped me and gave excellent recommendations. I had the regular gyro, my date had the kabob plate, we shared a pita appetizer, and had baclava and tiramisu. Everything we had was amazing. I left way too full. The only regret I have is not taking pictures of this delicious meal. I would definitely recommend and I will definitely be back.
I LOVE this place and have for a long time just now getting around to reviewing. The food is always good and quick! The gyro with the Greek potatoes is one of my favorite lunch with the extra greek sauce 15/10 the lady who I am assuming is the owner is always friendly. You really can’t get better greek food in Albuquerque. Yannis and the other greek place in nob hill do not compare!
This is a favorite for one of my friends and I. At least once a month, we eat Zorba's. My favorite Greek food in Albuquerque. I always keep the staff guessing because I like to order a variety of things from the menu.
I've been here a few times, always trying something different. Ordered and got my falafel sandwich within about 10 minutes of being there. It's not the best I've ever had, but I've definitely had worse in ABQ. I wish the falafel pieces were a bit bigger as they kind of drown in the pita. The sauce is amazing though! All around, it might be on the blander side, but I think it's worth trying if you've never been. The atmosphere is nice and can be a bit loud at times, but overall, it is mostly calming. All the staff are incredibly friendly so I don't understand the negative reviews about service. I think people expect full table service, but it's very cleary not *that* kind of restaurant. They may seem a bit understaffed, but that doesn't take away from the experience.

Holy smokes! There is not a single bad dish on the menu. The meat is so tender and delicious. And don't get me started on the sauces! Service was fast, and the people were so awesome. My new favorite restaurant.

Wonderful food and people. We had a gyro which was amazing, a half Grecian chicken which was similarly delicious, and the chicken souvlaki. Everything was perfect. The family that runs the place is kind and considerate, and it was also very reasonably priced. Can't wait to eat here again.

Food was disappointing. It was old, stale, rubbery, and looked like it had been reheated multiple times. Not worth the money.

Been going to Zorbas for many years. The quality has definitely gone way down and I dont think the owners really care. Today i paid $22. (For my food plus tip) for a Chicken salad that had old lettuce, old tomatoes and dried out chicken that was like old leather. Dont bother complaining, management always has great excuses for why the food is not fresh and tastes bad. If anyone had suggestions where to get good, fresh Greek food in ABQ please share. Wont be going back , its too bad.
If I could give zero stars, I would. I ordered the Greek chicken salad. The lettuce was old, wilted & brown. I tried to send it back, the owner refused. First she stated that it was that way from the oregano. Then, she stated that it was that way because it had just been cut. It was old bagged lettuce and she just didn’t want to re-make it for me. I will never eat here again and I’ll tell my friends as well. With prices the way that they are, food should at least be served fresh.

I just enjoyed a lovely lunch with my dear friend Sandy. She had the spanakopita plate, I had the southwest chicken gyros with fries and a side of spanakopita. We also had dessert, tiramisu and baklava cheesecake. The food was delicious, the atmosphere is lovely, the service was fantastic, but the absolute best was the owner who visited with us and enhanced our experience! She is phenomenal; we loved her! Enjoy the wedding and thank you for a wonderful lunch experience.

It was the worst Greek chicken I ever had it was dry also the rice was really dry and had no flavor supposed to taste like lemon it didn't I asked for extra lemon to give it favor was told I had to pay for it. The saganaki was okay but that also needed a lemon flavor. There was so little lemon I burnt myself trying to put the flames out. The waitress was horrible she stood there the whole time gossiping.

Worst falafel ever. One old, mushy half-square-inch piece of tomato, with some limp, old, see-thru lettuce, oily sauce, and falafel like a pasty, scorched cow patty. On a greasy, fried flatbread, not even a pita. My dog wouldn't eat it either, so I threw it out. Waste of $10. The fries are great, so, if you're trapped here, eat a plate of fries. If you're not here by force or obligation, LEAVE.

Just absolutely delicious. I ordered the gyro Greek salad and an iced tea. It came with a piece of pita. I used to eat at Olympia Café growing up. I'm not too far from this new location and I can't wait to come back. Huge portions and you pay after you order. Delicious iced tea and I highly recommend you take yourself here. Or meet a friend. Or...go on a date. Or....ok- you get the gist. Thanks, Zozorba!
