The wife and I had cravings for gyro this past weekend so we were very happy to find this place. Had an original gyro and a spicy chicken kopanisti as well as the hummus and falafel appetizer. Everything was delicious and the gyros were about the biggest I've ever seen, kind of had to start eating it like a salad before I could comfortably pick it up and continue. Everyone was very polite and our bill was lower than expected. We will be back for more! read more

We stopped at Opa Vera's after spending the day in French creek. It was fabulous! We were greeted like family upon entering and the food was delicious. We will definitely be returning. read more

I can only review what I tried, which is their Kopanisti chicken and their regular gyro. They really pack these pitas to the maximum. I want to try their other dishes or their hummus but I keep getting the Kopanisti...its just is spicy and sooo good. Highly recommend for fellow gyro lovers. read more

They have the best gyros in Pottstown! They really stuff them so you're getting your moneys worth in quantity but also quality! The pita is always fresh and the flavor just has you going back after every bite! If you ever wanna try someplace new I recommend Opa Vera's! read more

A really nice place for lunch, as the food was very well-prepared and delicious. The staff are some of the friendliest people you'll ever meet, and in all, I just got a good vibe from this restaurant. I work in the area often, and will definitely return. read more

I'm a boston guy and know Greek food In and out ! Recently stayed locally searched yelp for this gem. The portions and flavor were truly out of this world 5 stars truly earned !!!! read more

Ordered take-out and can't wait to order again! I went with some of the Greek favorites...falafel with hummus and the gyro. It was all great. Everything tasted fresh and just exactly as I ecpected, maybe better. I can't wait to try other items from the menu. read more

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamazing! Our first time here. Food was phenomenal. We had a little bit of a wait for our food but it was so worth it. I had the bruschetta haddock and my husband had the rack of lamb. We will definitely be back. read more

Was okay, got the platter that many raved about. Asked for it to be spicy, got charged 2 or 3 bucks. For wasn't spicy. Only got a few small pieces of peta bread with the platter - asked for an bit more pita bread -- also got charged a 2 or 3 dollars for that. Was never told it costs more to make the meal spicy or get extra pita bread. read more

was there a couple weeks ago. I had the pasta athenia, GF had gyro platter. Was all excellent, greek salad was great too- they use some garlic dressing that is so tasty. Tzatziki was excellent. Can't wait to try the pizza read more

Phenomenal! The gyro is so large I had to eat it with a fork! Well seasoned. Had to try the great potatoes and grape leaves. To top it all off there is American fare for those that turn their nose to Greek. You can tell the traditional gyro meat was freshly shaved off a spit. BYOB and friendly staff. read more

Very excited to hear Opa Veras is coming back ! It was unfortunate to hear the owner was involved in a serious car accident but he has pulled through to give us the food we all love. I spoke personally with him and he told me they will be opening October 1st 2019. Lets all support our local family operated restaurant! read more

Overall food was very good and wait staff was super friendly. Had the hummus and pita for appetizer (fresh and most likely homemade). I had the spicy chicken gyro and fries (was not too spicy but was very tasty), girlfriend had the veggie panini type thing (she said it was pretty good... Not mind blowing but a satisfying sandwich). Would definitely come back. read more

My girl friend and I had a delicious dinner date last evening. Two main dishes, one chicken and the other the mixed seafood pasta and Greek salad! Greek favors were some of the best I have had in the US. Friendly service too. Full plate of food for an entree, may need to get a take-out box for the lighter eater, two meals. Restaurant is not fine dining atmosphere, tables, few booths however comfortable with a good take-out business and growing dining affair. I believe business started May '15. The only drawback is it is not in a more trafficked area, but only 2 miles NE of downtown Pottstown. It is worth the drive and is found easily on gps. $$ very reasonable & BYOB. I wish the owner and staff good luck and much success. Continue the high quality of food and service, value, keep the chef and advertise a little more. Ed & Patsy. read more

Our second visit. The first was so great we had to come back. The first time we didn't realize it was 15 minutes before closing. They treated us like royalty without any rush. The Grecia Pasta and Pasta Athena were both outstanding. They use all fresh homemade ingredients. Service was superb. We had baklava for dessert. It was amazing! Don't miss this great dinner spot! read more

Found them on yelp so me and my wife figured we would give them a try. Like everyone said the portions were huge and everything was very good . I had the pork chop meal and my wife had the chicken parm . I can't wait to finish the left overs . The staff was friendly and appeared to be a family. husband and wife in the kitchen and the daughter was the waitress. read more

First time here on a slow Sunday night. Place is really clean and pretty inside. Service was somewhat slow but ok. We had spinach pie app which we did not enjoy - too much mint. The 4 dip platter with pita was wonderful. They made a huge plain pasta dishes for my 9 year old daughter and husband and I split the panini with pepperoni which was very good. Owner checked in on us. Overall very happy with this restaurant and we will return. read more

Been here three times and each time the food has not disappointed!! Tasty each time - complete visit to flavor town!! Gyros and linguine with capers are all great examples. BYOB. Pottstown best new food stop. The only down side is the service can be spotty. Hope that is fixed read more

Really enjoyed our aioli pasta, classic gyro, spanakopita and spicy feta. Not too fast not too slow, time between courses was just right. Our servers were fantastic. read more

We ate lunch here on a Sunday afternoon after going to Jake's Flea Market. The food was awesome and the owner and waitress were very friendly. We ordered the Saganaki Opa Vera appetizer, which was goat cheese which the owner poured liquor and lit on fire right at the table and finished it off with fresh lemon juice. It was served with wedges of pita bread. Yummy! I had one of the most delicious panini sandwiches ever - the Greek panini which had gyro meat and tasted like a gyro in a panini - but less messy! Portions were huge and reasonably priced. We took home doggy bags. Highly recommend if you like Greek food. Saganaki Opa Greek Panini 8.50 Gyro Meat, Feta Cheese, Grilled Tomatoes, Kalamata Olives, Red Onions and Garlic Sauce read more

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. My wife wanted something different for her birthday. She discovered this gem. There were 6 of us for her birthday meal. All I can say is WOW! The food was fantastic! Needless to say, we will be going back again. read more

I like trying different culture's food and I like Greek food. Food is good, but the portions are small.

Incredible food!!!! The gyros were absolutely fantastic and the fries were some of the best I've ever had! The baklava was also just perfect! Service was quick and the entire staff was very friendly! This is now one of my favorite places to eat!!! read more

Been here 3 times now in as many weeks. Truly great Greek staples: hummus, gyros, salad, and pitas/dips. Service is uniformly attentive and genuine; brought kids and they enjoyed their food as well (hand-breaded chicken tenders and calamari). The appetizer dip combo was the show-stopper and I actually was jonesing for it a few days later. Homemade with warm pitas to dip... It's lick-the-plate tasty. read more

We went to his place for father's day. Our waitress was quick to greet us and wish me a happy father's day. The food was a little slow to arrive, but otherwise quite tasty. My son was not a fan, but what 11 year old would be. read more

What a pleasant surprise!!!! So I read the reviews and I travel past this restaurant all the time and never thought about trying it out. I have to say all four of us would most definitely go back... that is how good the food was. I never write reviews but thought this place was worth noting. So happy to have awesome Greek food in the area!!!! read more

For authentic Greek food there isn't anywhere better in the Philadelphia area! Very friendly service and fantastic food from appetizer to dessert. I've had Greek food from all over the area and nothing compares. Everything is made from scratch and you can definitely taste the difference. Would recommend to anyone who is up for a true Greek taste. read more

These guys are the best in town! I have a shop right next door to them so I eat there often...kinda dangerous....lol. I love the staff and the owners are amazing people! The food is so good...I have a hard time deciding on a favorite! read more

We stopped there for our anniversary Sunday. It was after the lunch rush so it was relatively quiet. Our waitress Judy was extremely friendly and helpful. The place is nice and open inside. My wife had hummus and a Greek salad. I order the Spicy Gyro. The gyro was enormous!, The spicy feta chicken was so good. Just the right amount of lettuce and tomatoes. Some place load it with onions and shredded lettuce and skip the meat and flavor. NOT Opa Vera. The hummus my wife ordered was to die for. The absolute best hummus you will ever eat. The owner was very nice and pleasant as well. The plus: it was all homemade! Even my fries were cut there. read more

We are never disappointed . The service is delightful and the food is delicious. This is a great experience!

So glad a Greek restaurant opened in Pottstown and just 5 minutes from my house! I'm 25% Greek and the only time I used to get good Greek food out is 2 times a year at St. Sophia's Church Festival. The Greek salad is great. I love the creamy garlic dressing that they serve with it. The gyro is good and has feta cheese on it, which I have not had before on a gyro, but really like. I love the tzatziki sauce, which I have them place on the side. They always give me a nice large side. The gyro meat is not overly salty or overly dry like other restaurants tend to serve, and is nice and tender. I am guessing it is made with mostly lamb. The chicken lemon rice soup is terrific. It is similar to my mom's Greek soup, creamy and tasty. I highly recommend trying it! Baklava is also good with lots of layers and drips with honey sauce, just like I like it. Service is friendly and attentive. I like the food much better here than Greco Roman in Norristown and Olive Tree in Exton. We get take out often. I would love it if they offered delivery. read more

This place has great good and a family atmosphere. The hummus sampler app is a must. Gyros are great. Pasta dishes weren't the best, but that's not why you go here anyway. read more

Great Greek food, and a place that is casual and very nice

Had dinner here again last night. Of course it was fantastic! The owner is so friendly and welcoming, wait staff very attentive. The food is wonderful we had the kopanisti was deliously spicy, the opa chops were cooked perfectly along with delicious sides of sauted fresh veggies, spinach and feta infused rice, and lemon potatoes. All 3 were fantastic. The chicken platter was also delicious and included their fresh cut french fries along with the best Greek salad ever. I highly recommend you try this hidden jem. read more

I work close to Opa Vera's so they're my go-to lunch when I've got some extra cash in the wallet to eat out. My favorite item on the menu by far is the Grilled Chicken Gyro. I don't know what it is about it...the mysterious creamy garlic sauce, the moist chunks of chicken, the warm soft pita, or the fact that i need to eat some of the veggies out first before I can pick it up! If I had my way I'd have one of these bad boys every week. But that's not to say there aren't other amazing options on this menu. They have surprisingly good wings for being a Greek restaurant. The Island Pasta is terrific. There are a few others that I can't think of off the top of my head. I also really like their baklava. I'm very impressed with the menu, with the staff and their endearing nature, the price point, and just the whole experience. This place is set up more for dining in, including the BYOB option, but i think it works best for take-out. If I were to give a suggestion, that's the angle I'd get at. Maybe start delivering! Who knows? Good place all around, and definitely worth the drive up the hill. read more

Wow! What a great dining experience and a hidden gem! This place should be packed but wasn't this evening. My wife and I were looking for a new place that was BYOB and decided to try here after Saturday church. So glad we did! Started with calimari Mykonos, which just may be THE BEST most flavorful calimari I've ever had, and also spanakopita. Wife had a large spinach salad with salmon and I had chicken Argos. Lots of flavors and huge portions. We couldn't finish and looking forward to enjoying more tomorrow. Finished with backlava and Greek coffee. Our server was very attentive & also very friendly, knowledgeable & helpful with selections. This place is worth finding and enjoying! You will be glad you did! read more

This was a first visit to this month old restaurant. We had the fried smelt appetizer which 2 diners agreed tasted like "fair food" meaning greasy batter coating without mch flavor. Two of us ordered gyros. They were stuffed with a lot of lettuce, but not much meat and very little tzaziki. Another in our party ordered the calamari platter. Flavor was about the same as the smelts. That platter came with a salad with only a few toppings and fries on the side. Service was very slow. Overall, we were disappointed in our dining experience. That's unfortunate because there aren't any other Greek restaurants in the area. One positive is that the place looks newly renovated and clean. read more

I've been dying to try this place after reading all of these outstanding reviews and I finally had the opportunity this past weekend. Opa Vera's is the epitome of a hidden gem! The location is a bit interesting and from the outside it doesn't look like much, but on the inside you will find a nice, clean, casual dining atmosphere. We sat ourselves immediately as there were no other customers in the restaurant (5:30 pm on Saturday.. Eep!). Our server, Louis, was sweet, attentive, and personable. The menu is substantial- offering mostly Greek/European specialties, but it also includes several American staples as well. If you can't find something to order, you better stay home ;) We started with the fried calamari app. The portion was an actual mountain as our server described. The calamari was more breaded than I'd prefer as I tend to enjoy it best with little-no breading, but that was really easy to ignore. The side of marinara sauce that came with it was super flavorful. We also ordered the spicy chicken gyro to split. Because we mentioned we were going to share, our server actually told the kitchen who made us each our own individual one (versus receiving one large platter). I love when restaurants are so accommodating when you want to split/share entrees. It's not that we are sharing to be cheap- we simply want to order multiple items to maximize our tasting experience. The gyro was delicious! I can't remember the name of the sauce that was inside but wow.. So good! The chicken had a tiny kick to it, no lingering spiciness that I was expecting, but it was so tender and flavorful! We also ordered the Grecian pizza. OMGGG.. Our favorite!! I am still dreaming of this pizza days later! Several guests (6-7 tables?) did eventually show up after us, so I'm really hoping this place gets the business it needs and DESERVES to stick around. I highly, highly recommend :) Cannot wait to go back!! read more

Very friendly staff, giant portions of really really good food. We ordered the lemon chicken soup, calamari Mykonos (highly recommend) and two gyros and they were the size of our heads. We will definitely be coming back. read more

This restaurant is family owned. They are super friendly people and their food taste great. The portion of dishes are generous as well. Hummus are made to order, fresh and delicious. I wish the business will survive in this town. read more
