Ode to a Grecian Way

Opa! Greek Restaurant: If the food doesn't win you, the floor show will

It's all Greek to them at Opa!, from the baklava to the belly dancers.

It's all Greek to them at Opa!, from the baklava to the belly dancers.

By the time the dinner plates had been cleared and desserts and coffee ordered, the belly dancer was gone, replaced by a singer looking for all the world like a Greek Stevie Nicks. As the baklava and galaktobouriko (both $3.50 and delicious) and the strong, sweet Greek coffee ($2.50) arrived, the singer had broken into her rendition of "Never on Sunday" (in Greek of course) and half the patrons were on their feet dancing. I leaned back in my chair content, with silly grin on my face. I may have walked into Opa! a stranger, but I certainly felt at home by the time I left.

Opa! Greek Restaurant and Club, 13155 Westheimer, Suite 117, (281)558-4925.
