We stopped in from out of town on Sunday. Hadn't been here in a while. It was still as great as I remember it being. The people were so nice and friendly. Thank You for not changing... And the food is still as good as ever.

Delicious vegan pizza and fries! Very good indeed! I've had the vegan Zorbas several times, and it's amazing. Adding onions and mushrooms takes it to the next level!Vegetarian options: The back of the menu is entirely vegan! You can have it all here. Appetizers, healthy options, heavy options, desserts, pizza, sandwiches, and great service and atmosphere to top it all! I definitely recommend.

Sat down, waited and waited, did not get a menu. Had to ask for a menu. Ordered a sweet tea, did not get my sweet tea even though others that ordered drinks at the same time as me got their drinks. Waited to see if she was coming back with my drink; nope, never did. Had to ask for my tea. When my glass was empty, had to ask for a refill when others at my table automatically received refills. After my second glass was empty still no refill. Even though people who got sweet tea at my table are on their third glass, not only that, they got a new glass with fresh ice and lemon. After my second glass, never got another refill after that; and I got tired of asking. So why should I tip you? People complain about not getting paid enough, not getting a livable wage, ok...so what are you doing that makes you deserve higher pay?!

Update2:See Update1. Things are consistent with the exception of the serving staff.Update1: Still the same good food, good service and staff is still turning over. They still maintain good wait staff.Update:food was good and service was great. Always new faces so staff still turning over.The wait staff seems to have turned over. I only recognized maybe two people. Service was still good food came out fast and hot. Good consistent food and service.Good food and excellent service. Sat at the bar but I think that's where the best service is. The bartenders tend to stay longer so there is more consistency. Had a good rme.Another new waitress but others on the staff helped out. Still a very good place to go for reasonably priced food with good portions.Update: food is still delicious and plentiful and inexpensive. They were very busy and service was slow. Waitress may have been new. Took awhile to get our salads and dinner came out before we finished them. Ordered wine and that also was slow coming. Wasn't too bad but could have been better.The review is based on our visit to the restaurant at their peak hour on Saturday. The waitress was very good, always there when we needed her, and the food was hot and came out quickly. The only problem was our drinks were rather slow in coming. We ordered our second drink when our meal was delivered but didn't get them til the latter part of our meal. So they lost one star in the review. Overall our experience was enjoyable.The restaurant itself was remodeled recently and is very welcoming. The menu has a variety of Greek food with about 20-30 local brews. Food and service as always was excellent.

I first went to Orapax with my dad in the early 80s. I most recently went with my beautiful wife of more than 30 years last week. Although the building has changed, the food is still great. A glass of Retsina and an order of Pastichio with a nice Greek salad. Great atmosphere and service as usual.I grew up in the area and I come here everything I'm in town.
