    So excited to have gotten to try out Downingtown's newest food venue! Can't say enough about the whole experience! The food was delicious and our waiter was great! We sampled their cobb salad/risotto/ pizza and seafood dish. All had their own spin and take- highly recommend this newest gem but get your reservation in early as they book up for regular table times!!

    George (there are two of them) and team are extraordinary waiters. The food is authentic Greek and extremely well prepared. I mentioned the service first because the warmth, enthusiasm and level of attentiveness sets OPA apart from most restaurants.

    Had a great meal! First time being there under the new white dog name. I will definitely eat here again. Just a little chilly at the window with a two seater table in the back room, where we sat. That made it a little bit more difficult to enjoy the experience fully since we were cold. I do believe our server did turn up the heat a bit for us. Thanks!! To be fair, the seasons are changing and temps dropped recently, and it was raining and windy. The food was amazing and the place is beautiful, despite being cold near that one window, I would definitely enjoy a meal here again.

    Once we discovered this gem, we keep coming back! Our favorites are the short rib bolognese (with potato gnocchi-yum), the short ribs, the pork chop, and the fruit with ricotta flat bread. Love this place!
