The Owner and Chef George Vasilarakis is a Greek native with over 40 years of experience in the kitchen.

Some of the restaurant's highlights include gyros, dolmades (stuffed grape leaves), moussaka, spanakopita (spinach pie), and of course, sweet treats like baklava and walnut cake.

Those are all things my late Greek grandmother used to make. I can't wait to go try them all.

The name "Opa" comes from the Greek expression of joy, meaning “Hurray!”

“I know everyone in Hamilton loves the Greek Festival, so when we don’t have the festival, I’ll bring the festival to you," Vasilarakis said.

Opa also offers catering. Perfect for the upcoming holidays.

Opa Greek Restaurant is open seven days a week, with hours from 11 AM to 9 PM Monday through Thursday, 11 AM to 10 PM on Fridays and Saturdays, and 11 AM to 9 PM on Sundays.
