Opa Greek Yeeros

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this hidden gem in Davis Square Opa Yeeros, and I can’t recommend it highly enough! This family-owned and operated Greek restaurant is the epitome of hospitality and warmth. From the moment you step inside, you’re treated like family, with the kind of genuine care and attention that makes you feel right at home. The food is simply outstanding. Every dish is crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients that burst with authentic flavors. Whether you’re indulging in their perfectly seasoned gyros, savoring their rich and creamy tzatziki, or enjoying the delicious Rice Pudding , each bite is a testament to the love and tradition that goes into their cooking. This is more than just a meal—it’s an experience. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed dinner or a special gathering with loved ones. If you’re in Davis Square and craving a truly authentic Greek culinary experience, this restaurant is an absolute must-visit. Don’t miss out on this slice of Greece right in the heart of the city!

I’m visiting from Orlando, FL and we ran into this Greek restaurant and we enjoyed it. The food was delicious and they give a generous portion of food. This is a family owned restaurant and they have mom cooking and you can taste the love in the food. Ask them about their village and they will give a wonderful full tour. I highly recommend this place locals and people visiting Boston.

This place is one of my favorites around Davis square. The food is great and the family that runs it are so kind and welcoming. Multiple times I've eaten here and gotten small sides for free like sauces or even a dessert. They really treat you well. If you're not sure what you want, I've seen them give people samples of different meats or sauces when ordering so you know what you're getting. It's a small place, so there's not much seating inside, but there's normally at least 1 or 2 seats open. They've got a nice little patio with outdoor seating too.

Food was incredible and the absolute friendliest staff!!! They offered us a bit of meat to try first to decide which to get (and I went with the combo because they were both so good), and even brought out some additional dips for us, all of which were so good I seriously would go there just to get a big thing of the spicy feta or eggplant dip just to have on hand to snack on. And the fries were the best kind - battered and crispy. Kind people, great food, you have to go here!!!

This place is so good!! Family owned & the people that work there are so friendly. The portions are very generous and prices are reasonable. We had 2 chicken gyros and the baklava << this was amazing!! Deff. Coming back. Thank you!

What an amazing find! The service and food were both so incredible. I’ll be coming back any time I have a chance! What’s even more amazing is how kind the staff is. We were enjoying our meal and they asked us what type of loukemades we would want, and brought some out for everyone on the patio to try. Seriously, go check this place out ASAP, you wont be disappointed

Wow this place was impressive! I had the chicken gyro. I also got the lakamos donuts with the walnuts. Omg so delicious! All of it was fresh and tasty!

This is the best place for gyros in the greater Boston area. We love the Tzatziki and Chicken Gyro. The outdoor dining area is also nice for a quick lunch.

I ordered from here tonight after discovering them on Uber Eats and I liked it. My order was made promptly after placing my order, my issue is more with Uber which I'll leave in my rating over there. It took an hour for my driver to pick up the food and another half hour to get it to me. I ordered the falafel pita, pita, tirokafteri, and loukoumades with nutella and crumbled greek cookies. My food was delicious, just a little let down it wasn't super warm. The falafel pita was packed with flavor and they accommodate my extra add ons that I left in the comments. The tirokafteri had a nice kick to it and was great with the pita. The loukoumades were unreal! The portions for the price was fair/reasonable. I think next time I will visit in person instead of relying on Uber Eats. Overall, this is really good authentic greek food.

The service is 10/10 and everyone there was super friendly. The man working the cash register made small talk with people so it had a very home/family vibe. He even gave out free samples for some dish. I overheard him talking to some other customers behind the thought process of making the gyro which was insightful and made me appreciative of what I was eating. I ordered a gyro plate which came with pita and fries. I would've liked the white sauce to be more flavorful and the meat was a bit dry. The portion size was nice and it came with a salad. I ordered some Greek pasties as well. Not much seating inside. Overall a great place but I had to deduct a star for the texture/taste of the meat and sauce.

I love opa. My food is always quick! And delicious! Staff are always friendly. It is a great local spot!

Me and my brother stopped by for some gyros 10/08/24, after looking up the place in Yelp with older pictures. He has posted a review on same day as trip. Food took maybe up to 15 minutes, if that. The beef and pork combos I believe from memory is not an option from past pictures on Yelp, it's from old ownership and management I believe.. Someone came in after us wanting the same thing and the son running the counter explained they don't do that there, only authentic only. I got the Bifteki pita, Bikos aka Vikos Classic cola, and Mastiqua Sour Cherry drink. Bifteki is seasoned ground beef, with egg and bread crumbs. Since I like trying new things it was perfect that day. I will look into getting it back home going forward. Delicious. I was asked how I want it cooked, I went with how they would normally cook it. I was later asked if I like it spicy, I turned that down. If I was in Boston again I would try it that way one day. The soda taste like Pepsi but we were told less sugar. and natural mineral water instead of being carbonated. I will look into getting this back home as well. The Mastiqua Sour Cherry drink was explained by the son as something that is used to either make natural gum, this drink, or a dessert. The taste is hard to describe. I can't even say if I do or don't like it. I'm adventurous so I went for it. I would drink it again if in the mood, if it was available in my area. It can also be used in mixed drinks for alcoholic beverages I was told. There was one other flavor, but I did not get that one. The place itself is small, there is seating inside for maybe 6 people on stools counter sitting.. You can sit facing them and watch them make food. Two seat are facing window instead. There is outside seating as well. They have parking there too. I highly recommend the place. You can try some samples. The son was very informative.

Very cozy, friendly family owned business. The pork was amazing and portion size was huge, enough for 2 meals. Highly recommend!

Wonderful food and even better service. This place is small, but welcoming. There isn't a lot of seating inside but they have a super cute outdoor seating area and there's parking! The guys who work there are really friendly and attentive with everyone who walks in. The menu is straight forward and the food comes out fast. Food was tasty and fresh. Seems like they make all hot food to order. We even got an order of loukoumades on the house! All the five stars reviews are well deserved!

Perfect. Just go. They are wonderful people. The falafel is excellent and don't forget to try the Mastica drinks. This is a piece of Greece that was a wonderful discovery. This is a small, family owned restaurant and a jewel to be discovered.

Good gyros and bowls. I often get the falafel wrap or bowl and it's really good. They put fries in the pita, which is tasty but also can be really heavy.

Pork gyro outstanding, falafel excellent and frappe delicious. Nice out door seating and they actually have parking in Davis Square. The son of the owner was very gracious and helpful. Highly recommend and will def go back.

I'm the lone carnivore in a household of vegetarians. So when I had a craving while the family was away, I decided to check this place out again. Did not disappoint! Healthy portions of pilaf and protein. So flavorful! Freshest veggies in their salad. Condiments/dressing were perfectly seasoned. Friendly mom-and-pop place, I will be returning sooner!

Absolutely amazing Greek. Some of the best gyros around and the wings are delicious. They're great people as well; friendly, kind, and courteous.

Ordered the pork gyro and some loukoumades, both were incredible. Pork was crispy and flavorful, great balance of fries and tzatziki. Ate too quickly to take pictures. Food came with free coke since we ordered around 2pm. Service was attentive and helpful. I have a tomato allergy and had no issues getting my gyro with no tomatoes.

New owners and it's super tasty, possibly even better than before. They even gave us a free mini dessert. So happy Opa is back!

Highly recommend, the gyros were so juicy and had crispy edges, delicious baklava and loukoumades and AWESOME staff!!

I was staying near Davis Square and was searching for a late-night place to eat. I haven't had Greek food in a while so when a friend suggested this place I agreed. At first glance, it seemed like any other store from the outside. As you entered you see the decorations and the rotating meats. I went ahead and ordered a Chicken Yeero Pita. There was no indoor or outdoor seating in the restaurant which was disappointing. We had to go back home to eat our meals. The pita was very large and packed with chicken, tzatziki sauce, tomatoes, red onions, and french fries. You don't usually see many places offering large french fries on a Yeero. The food filled my hunger but it was not great. I love eating Yeeros ever since I visited Greece several years ago. The food here was not the freshest or packed with a lot of flavor. Now on the other hand it was late at night shortly before they closing. If I had arrived earlier the food probably would have been better. I plan to come back here next time I am in Sommerville. I love Greek food so it will be hard for me to stay away. Judging from all the five-star reviews here the food is excellent I will try a lunch order next time in order to make up for my late night dinner.

Small family type of restaurant, lovely people. I ordered the chicken Greek salad which came with freshly made pita's. Was absolutely delicious!

Solid spot for cheap! I love Greek food so I'm trying to find good places nearby. Opa definitely fits the bill. I got the Chicken Souvlaki Pita which was delicious. The chicken was really good as were the other fillings. The French fries hit the spot. Sometimes it's hard to find gyros with French friends in them these days. We also got some zucchini fritters which were very delicious. They didn't have falafel, so we got this instead. Definitely just as good if not better. The tzatziki was a good mix with the fritters. My girlfriend got the beef and lamb yeero, which she enjoyed. That pita was not for me, though The service was very friendly and helpful. The prices are also very reasonable. Highly recommend if you're looking for some solid Greek food and aren't trying to break the bank!

I have been on a quest to find a gyro sandwich here in the states, as I had in the little shoppes of Greece. To say that my quest is a bit of a fool's errand is an understatement. Each time I pass by a shoppe with a spinning rotisserie of meat, I pop in ... sometimes after having already eaten a full meal ... just to ensure with a few bites, at least, that I did not pass by my eventual US gyro soulmate. Alas ... I still have not found a gyro that compares to Greece. But this place is as close as I've come! I've had gyros in Los Angeles, Massachusetts, NYC, Long Island, Florida, etc. and on a scale of 1 to 10, my results have usually not moved past a 5. (1 being high school cafeteria ... 10 being Athens) I'd rate this spot a solid 7, maybe an 8. The shoppe has 3 meats ... pork (my go-to), chicken, and lamb/beef mix. The rotisserie are spinning and the meat looks favourful. I got a single gyro as for the New Year, I have vowed to take off the 'quarantine fifteen' I've put on since the lockdown thanks to takeout and washing my travel frustrations away in beer and whiskey. These gyros come with french fries already in them. That's a plus ... many spots you have to beg for them to put a few fries on, or pay extra for a whole order of fries and do it yourself. The fries are fantastic. Stay with me on this thought ... when McDonalds fries are on point (which sadly is 10-20% of the time) they are fantastic and amazing. Crispy, salty, savoury. These fries are like 'on point' McDonalds fries, only thicker. Perfectly seasoned and crispy. You'll likely have to eat a few off the top before being able to close the gyro, which is a bonus. The meat ... well, I came an hour before closing ... so I am sure earlier in the day it would be better than what I got. It was a little dry and rubbery. But ... the flavour was still good and when it's sliced off the actual rotisserie vs. kept in a bin pre-cut, it would be one step above. I think the biggest reason why Greek gyros are so much better is because the meat is fresh sliced off the rotisserie vs. the US. I blame Chipotle for instituting this habit. The tsaziki sauce is the star of the show. I can't tell you how many gyros I've thrown out after one bite because the tsaziki sauce sucked. I've seen basically sour cream with chives, watery weird sugary paste, etc. at other places. Here it has the consistency and sourness of a good Greek yogurt mixed with spices and garlic that give the sandwich a great taste. The tomatoes are fresh. Next time I will ask for some diced cucumbers, which are a sort of non-standard item but my favourite gyro stand in Rhodes made them this way and it stuck. The shoppe is basically a typical New England pizza shoppe. Sort of stuck in the 70's or 80's decorwise ... no seating ... but a friendly staff who you could tell appreciated the business during these crazy times. The staff was friendly and polite, even though I came in an hour before closing time and they were starting their close down routine, they still made me a heck of a gyro. Being so close to Boston, I was surprised that it was fairly inexpensive. For $9 you get a fresh tasting authentic gyro. A big appetite might be left a bit hungry if not ordering a side or dessert. Woukd I pay 25% more for a 25% bigger gyro? Heck yeah!! But judging by some of the other reviews on here, it seems like there are a lot of small, in shape females eating here ... so I am sure a Chipotle-sized loaded gyro would not appeal to the masses. I will certainly be back when in the area. A good Gyro is so hard to find ... if you've only had the typical weird reheated strips of meat that comes in one flavour, "gyro" at your local pizza shoppe, ypu haven't really had a gyro until you've had something like this. Great job in restoring my faith in gyro humanity here in the US!

The food is phenomenal. There are no other restaurants that come close to the consistency on overall menu items being so delicious. I have tried the chicken gyro sandwish, pork gyro sandwish, and falafel plate. All phenomenal with the rice pilaf, tzatziki and mustard. I can say if I was a local I'd eat here more often than I could count. Big thanks to Mario and his family's amazing hospitality. This is a real treat!

Yummy it's good eat it. Service is good yelp wants me to write more words so this is more words

They are such nice people and the food is unbelievable!! This place is the best restaurant in Somerville. My friend and I have started going every Saturday

This is my go-to Greek place in the Boston area. You really can't go wrong in terms of the menu here but my favorites are the pork gyro and the loukaniko. The meat is great, the fries are great, the pita is great, this place is great.

Awesome place for some delicious Gyros/Yeeros. Surprisingly close to Davis Sq too. I was lucky enough to try out their food with a pick up order on a cold day. It sucks that still not able to eat inside at the time but when i got home the food was simply amazing They served it up quite fast, like others have mentioned I appreciate how they have fries in the pita wraps that definitely adds some extra uniqueness. The prices are quite fair with the portion size. Definitely very fresh and tender meats in the Gyros. Given how close this place is I would definitely be back for repeat visits in the future.

I went to Greece a few years back and this food immediately reminded me of the authentic taste from there. I got the lamb/beef gyro and my friend got the chicken dinner plate. Everything tasted fresh, was well seasoned, and flavors paired well together. It is also very affordable--both our meals came out to $21. The service is fast, the staff is friendly, and there is outdoor seating for the good summer weather.

Great Greek food! I got the plate with lamb gyro, rice, and Greek salad. The meat was a bit dry, but the rice was very very good, it was fluffy and seasoned well, almost like a pilaf. I also really liked the tzatziki sauce. I will def be coming back again. Service was very good as well, everybody was super nice.

Seriously delicious! I had the chicken gyro. Super fresh, you could taste all of the ingredients.

Fantastic and delicious. Very nice staff and the food is amazing. Highly recommend! Get the lamb gyro

Feeling for some mediterranean food? Opa has to be on the list of place to go. It's relatively cheap, and the food here is pretty tasty. The staff here are very helpful in getting what you want and overall it's a quick in and out spot. So what did I order for my quick dinner? I ordered the lamb plate, and it wasn't a small plate, but the prices weren't bad at all. To be honest, I could've gotten a gyro and I would've loved it as well but I would have ordered two because I'm sure one wouldn't have hit the spot for me. The salad was plentiful along with the fries, but I just wanted to try something different and I sadly regret that I didn't go for my original plan. Pretty much though, if you want a good gyro or some lamb, this is definitely a place that should be on your list. If you're in the neighborhood and this is within walking distance, then I don't know why you haven't been yet.

Want delicious Greek food without a huge price tag attached? Have a desire to eat your food outside on a covered patio with sun all around you? Can't decide between gyro or a gyro plate? Opa the solutions to all these answers. Opa is more of a small eatery or hole in the wall establishment. The workers there greet you immediately when you want in and are more than happy to walk you through the menu. The menu itself is on a LED screen far in the distance. I found it easier to read the paper menu before ordering. We ordered: - a chicken yerro (gyro) - 5 stars - a chicken yeero (gyro) plate - 5 stars - tyropita (cheese pie) - 1 stars The food was delicious except for the cheese pie. The chicken was moist and crispy too. The pita was fluffy and warm. The Greek salad on the yeero plate was traditional. A generous block of feta cheese was placed on fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers and olives. As I'm typing this reviewing, I'm craving Opa! The only downfall was the tyopita or cheese pie. I took one bite of this pie and had to spit it out. The cheese was hardened and tasted like plastic. I think because the pies are kept in a glass case warmer- by the end of the day the contents over heat and harden. I wish I did t order that pie because it spoiled my experience a bit. But, next time I come here I just won't order the pie because the main meal is delicious!

I ordered from here a few times off of Grub Hub. I love the Chicken yeero pita's here. I usually get the chicken pita yeero with cucumbers, lettuce, olives, and green peppers. The blend of all the veggies and toppings with Tahini sauce is mouth savoring. The meat is good as well, but the toppings really do it for me. It adds the perfect spice. I had re-heated the pita yeero and it was still delicious. It is always so good each time I order. I highly recommend this place and would definitely order again off of Yelp Grubhub. I'll update this review when I try more items

I just love this place. I frequently go pick it up and or get it delivered. The meat is so delicious and fresh. They have the BEST Greek fries. The Greek salad is simple with a really nice light olive oil dressing. It is a no frills, high quality, delicious place to grab a gyro.

Amazing gyros, whichever kind of meat you like. They are made with fries if you get everything on them, which I'm not a huge fan of, but they are tasty - I just eat them first and then have the sandwich! Their tzatziki sauce is AH-MAZ-ING. So garlicky and tangy, I want everything covered in it! Fresh veggies and greens round out the sandwich and a super fluffy pita bread. The greek salad is also really good, with feta. Yum! They also carry Sophia's Greek Pantry greek yogurts - the honey yogurt is better than a lot of ice creams in my opinion, and you can get away with eating it for breakfast! It is so rich and creamy. The baklava is also dripping with honey and full of nuts, so chewy and moist. Take some to go if you don't have room after your gyro or salad!

Must have Gyros & Loukoumades! True neighborhood staple. Owner is also a wonderful guy - he was super kind, and gave us fresh Loukoumades for free. He clearly cares for his customers. Interior is small, but perfect for a quick gyro or take out. Patio space on the side if you want to hang out on a warm day.

OPA!!! The food & service here are truly causes for a Greek celebration! There are so many offerings - yogurt to pastries, pitas to plates - that the minute I leave the restaurant, I'm already tempted to return. The Loukaniko pork & leek sausage is so flavorful, and, as the kind staff member behind the counter informed us, you can have it as either a plate or a pita, because "we want to make your yeero dreams come true." And they weren't kidding. When I asked him what he recommended since it was my first visit, he said his go-to was the pork yeero pita with all the fixings. So one of those for me. BF got the Loukaniko in a pita, and the staff member asked if he liked mustard and said he could add some since he thinks it goes well. What a great suggestion! He really seemed to care about what we liked and that we enjoyed our Opa experience to the fullest. After ordering, we took two seats on barstools, and he even went around the counter to hand-deliver our pita babies to us once they were ready. My pork yeero pita was a thing of beauty: PACKED with chunks of pork, great ratio of tangy sauce and veggies, and the fries inside added a nice flavor and texture. I left stuffed full of porky pita and love for Opa.

I ordered over the phone two swarma plate of lamb, i come to pick up and cashiers said here is your order open plastic plate in from of 5 peopels I said why u do this??!! Is corrona!! I know what is there!! This meat love something is not lamb meat. Very unprofessional! Will not be back!

Absolutely loved!! Went with some close friends for a quick dinner and we had such a great time. The owner was so kind, and although the place is small the vibes were out of this world. The Yeeros were delicious, and he actually gave us dessert on the house when we were having a hard time deciding which one to get. Loved this place and can't wait to make it a staple!

Best Greek food around, would make my yiayia proud! Can't wait for her to visit so I can take her. The owner was so nice and and welcoming and their selection of Greek products were amazing! The price is amazing and the food is so authentic and flavorful. I had to try half the menu on my first trip and I can't wait to come back. Thank you!

Delicious food and great service. Lot of delicious apps like spanakopita, and tyropita. For $3.50 you get a huge side of french fries that are absolutely delicious. My husband went for Beef lamb yeero that he said was very tasty but for me it was too gamey. I had zucchini fritters plate. Even if you don't like zucchini, you need to order these. They are the best zucchini fritters I have ever eaten. Just out of this world!!!! All their sides like greek salad and home made tzatziki were very tasty. The greek rice was amazing and I could eat it all by itself. We also tried Loukoumades and they were ok. They were for sure much denser than the ones we had in Greece and also were not dunked in honey, instead honey was scarcely put on the donuts making them little dry. The service is just wonderful and the guys working behind the counters are very helpful.I would definitely eat here again.

The menu is simple - there are less items than a full service Greek restaurant but there are 7 options for the Yeero sandwiches. Pork or Souvlaki, Chicken, Beef and Lamb, Bifteki (Greek hamburger), Loukaniko (Greek sausage with leeks), and Veggie. All the food offered is all very very good. Every plate is cooked to order. The Traditional toppings are all perfectly paired with the meat. The flavor of the meat seasoned and cooked perfectly and was true to what was ordered. The meat I ordered, not dreaded "mystery meat" carried day and the flavor. French fries are in the Yeero, not on the side. The pita was fresh and held together to make eating the Yeero effortless. I learned Of Opa Yeeros through Groupon. It's so affordable a Groupon is hardly needed. Parking is tough but worth the effort. The owners are very friendly and upbeat. Definitely worth a return trip. Bring your appetite!

Came here during the PorchFest in May 2022. It is a good neighborhood spot with really good wraps and I love how they put the French Fries in it!

Nice local shop with good food and nice people. My favs are the chicken gyro pita or the chicken souvlaki plate with rice. Their baklava is also delicious. Good fries too.

Outstanding Greek spot right by Davis Square with the perfect gyros. We were also very impressed by the welcoming hospitality. The food portion for the price is very worth it.

This place has it all. Roasting pork, lamb, chicken, dead bodies, sausage, you name it! Not to mention the delivery is about as fast as I last in bed. Funny? Funny. Even when it's ball-tingling cold, the smiles on the workers face will warm you immediately. Helll yus A random customer in ther was mad sus tho. Kept staring at me. As always, happy eating and happy holidays! Cheels

We have been coming to Opa for years. The gyros are unbelievable. Better than the gyros we have had in Greece. The friendly service also can't be beat. Our kids our now fans and crave Opa just as much as we do.

Did you ever travel abroad and score a delicious gyro stuffed with feta and fries - possibly while drunk? Opa is the only place I have found in the US that comes close to the delicious gyros I have had abroad and I was so happy to find a local place that executes them so perfectly. Highly recommend the gyros filled with fries, dressing, veggies, and meat - make sure to add feta and olives if you're an olive lover! The grape leaves were also tasty and worth getting here because they're a little different than the typical grape leaves you can buy at the grocery store. Everything on the menu looks great - can't wait to try the soups. Everyone here is so nice.... a Greek customer came in and chatted with the staff in Greek. Very local, neighborly, friendly place. Definitely adding to the regular rotation.

Okay so the food was subpar and the prices seemed a little steep for what was given but we're within reason. My main issue here though is that while my friend was waiting for the food to be ready while I was in the car, two other groups came in, got their food, and left while we were still waiting. I hope this was not a race issue as my friend was Hispanic but I can't really imagine another reason unfortunately. Update: since the owner wants to be a jackass, probably says all you need to know about the place. I'm white, my friend was Mexican, I went in with her to order but then had to go back to the car while they waited for the food. They said another group came in, ordered similar items, got their food, and left before ours came up. I was going to give you guys the benefit of the doubt and go back but given the owners childish response this seems like a place to avoid like the plague. There are far better Greek options around to support.

Although I was totally eyeing up the spanakopita cause that's my jam, I wanted to get the chill out of my bones from walking around & got the lentil soup, which happens to be vegan which was a total plus. Holy tastiness. Although the place is small they do have a whole Greek menu from you to choose from. They even have different products to sell that are totally from Greece. Considering how lacking Greek places are n the area, nice to see an authentic place where you can get some really great items. Shame not a restaurant though.

I no longer live around there but when I did I loved this place. They have the friendliest people and best service. Food was always fresh and even my pup loved coming here. I miss you, Opa!

Great local Greek joint. Got a spanakopita (spinach pie) to start, and the lamb yeero dinner plate. You can get either grilled meat or the yeero- thinly sliced meat off a rotating spit. OMG the tzatziki was so creamy and delicious! I overheard them say it was homemade yogurt. I liked how they gave me a whole piece of quality feta, drizzled in olive oil, over my Greek salad. They were very friendly, and service was quick.
