Beefteki

The Beefteki at Zorba’s Taverna Restaurant and Bar made me nostalgic of my recent trip to Greece. Consisting of ground sirloin stuffed with fresh garlic and herbs, diced onions and mozzarella cheese topped with sauteed plum tomatoes, the Beefteki was cooked to perfection and the sauteed plum tomatoes gave a nice dimension to the dish. I chose Greek Lemon potatoes instead of the mashed potatoes, which were great tasting but could perhaps have had a little more lemon added.  I truly enjoyed the flavors and presentation of my food which played well with the excellent atmosphere of the restaurant. I would say at perfect choice of restaurant where you get a good value for your money.

Chicken Souvlaki

Chicken Souvlaki

Chicken SouvlakiThe Chicken Souvlaki from Zorba’s Taverna Restaurant and Bar was exactly what I expected from a restaurant specializing in Greek cuisine – delicious!  There was a generous amount of tzatziki sauce, which made the sandwich messy but wonderful.  I didn’t taste the Greek dressing, but its flavor may have blended with the tzatziki.  It would have been nice if there were a few more pieces of chicken in the wrap to make it feel more substantial and to keep me from picking at the side of generic fries.  I did discover, however, that the fries were improved upon dipping into the extra tzatziki sauce.  This sandwich does come with one warning – don’t make this a date night choice unless your partner is indulging in something with tzatziki as well as the garlic flavor is quite strong!
