Acropolis Opa — Restaurant in Town of Amherst

The Santorini Salad was phenomenal! Best salad I've had in more than a year!

The mixture of classic Greco ingredients...tomato, onions, cucumbers, chickpeas on top of a Romaine & Spring Greens mix will bring in any Greek food lover that passes by. The traditional light, fresh, & rustic everyone looks for in the landfare of Greek food. Incredibly fresh and well presented with grilled pita, and two dressings of lemon vinagrette & tzatziki.

The nuance/different take of the plate was the subtle addition of sunflower seeds & dried cranberries. Sunflower seeds lessened the zest of the acidity and bring a new texture for dinners to chew over. Too subtle to notice out of the entire salad but enough to have an impact. The cranberries had the same effect but with the use of sweetness instead.

Combining the greek-style Lemon Vinagrette, Tzatziki sauce, dried cranberries and sunflower seeds made this plate a symphany of flavor! Every bite was a sublime dance between texture and flavor!

One could enjoy the acidity without being overwhelmed in one bite, taste the lemon overtones in the next bite, acquire the texture of sunflower seeds or cucmbers to cleanse the palette within the next, have some sweetness/chewy fruit from the cranberries in the next!

The Feta cheese was just the right size to blend smoothly with the salad. Not large chunks the size of one of your teeth, as if it was a cold pasta, and thus distracting the eater from the rest of the plate for a moment. Not the size of dust particles either, as if it was added cheese on a slice of pizza, and thus inperceptable in a salad with strong flavor. Intentionally thin slices of Feta that one could note and enjoy. Added a pleasant note for both flavor and texture on this salad. You don't see that everywhere.

Our server Anthony noted the enjoyment on my face because this salad was truely phenomenal! Anthony is a gracious & professional server who I can tell cares about his dinners' experience! Please come to Acropolis and try this salad!

A burnt romaine bacon ranch/caesar salad at a high end establishment was far below this amount of...

We came in for brunch on a Saturday. We came in through the front doors and one waitress greeted us and let us know it would be a 10 minute wait. 15 minutes go by and the another waitress greeted me while I was waiting and she was bussing a table. She did not come back and have us sit. Then another waitress came to the group of groups waiting to sit at the front door and we told her we were first. She then told my significant other to calm down. We were seated at the bar and served. While ordering a beer our waitress didn't know what craft brews were in cans in the fridge. Ended up getting an IPA. While ordering food, I got the dip trio and was told they ran out of the spicy feta dip and I would need to get something else. Asked to substitute a dolma or a falafel instead of choosing one of the other dips (neither that I wanted). Ended up ordering something different and then 5 minutes later was told they did have the spicy feta and I could get that in my dip trio. Food came out and was tasty. While we were dining at the bar, we were seated at the far end of it, which turned out to be the congregating area for all the wait staff so it was not very quiet or private. We heard one of the wait staff call one of the patrons who left while waiting a "b*h."

They seem to have 2 entrances for customers to come in, and just a notepad to write out who is waiting and how many. We watched an older couple wait for a solid 30 minutes before getting seated, and I heard them say their name was already crossed off the list, so the wait staff forgot about them.

They need a hostess to fix the waiting problem and they need to have 1 entrance for customers, as that seemed to add a lot to their confusion. Wait staff should know what they have in their fridge and what is available in the kitchen. Our waitress Ended up forgetting to add my beer to the bill.

If I were to go again, I would hope they are better organized...

I wish there was an option to leave ZERO stars. Truly disappointing experience. We came there for breakfast hoping to have some healthy Greek food. First of all, the server took forever to get our order, while people who’d gotten there later than us already got their food served. Also, the server had absolutely no clue what the difference between the souvlaki and gyro was. She said it’s just the same thing written twice. Quick google search later: they’re NOT the same thing and for someone working at the “so called” Greek place, they need to be trained on knowing the menu. Second of all, the FOOD itself… We ordered the breakfast Gyro. I’ve been to Greece many times and I’ve been to other great American Greek places but THAT was not Gyro. It was probably closer to a Kufteta or a beef sausage but it was not something you could call Gyro. To describe the dish: it was just this ground beef sausage with NO cucumbers, no tomatoes, just plain overly salty sausage topped with two eggs, bread soaked in butter and tasteless fruits. As someone who tries to eat somewhat healthy and chose this place over the diner down the street, I really wish we chose the diner, it would have been way healthier and more positive than this place. I’m not sure if it got bought out by someone who has absolutely no idea what Greek food is because I see the reviews a year ago used to be better but seeing the reviews lately (which I wish we did beforehand), I wouldn’t be surprised if it goes out of business. Now we’re spending the rest of the morning with pepto because of how salty, buttery and overall upsetting the breakfast was and hope this will save someone else’s morning...
