Great food but..... I have tried this place on several different ocassions. The food was great everytime. But the thing that will keep me from going back is what happens consistently: poor service (not enough wait staff) and poor locale. It is located in an udesirable strip mall. It doesnt feel clean. In fact my feet stuck to the floor! Enough of a turn off that we wont return.

Good food, Weird hours, Service is good but crazy around lunch time due to crowds.. The food is good - not Baltimore Greektown good but good. The service is decent. It's serve yourself during lunch hour but you get waited on during evening hours.

The place closes at around 2:15 for a couple hours.

Best Greek food in Texas!!!. After moving to Austin, we looked for a good Greek restaurant.

The service at Zorbas is always outstanding. The waitstaff is so attentive and regardless of how busy they are, we never wait more than 10 mins for our delicious food. All the dishes are great, but we love the sampler and vegetarian plates! The baklava is also fantastic!

We have now become Zorbas addicts and enjoy it at least once a week. If I had my way, I would have 5 it days a week.

Hands down, the best greek food in town!!!

Large Portion, Yummy!. I am new to Greek food but after my first try, I really like Zorba. The selection of side dishes is fantastic! The gyro is tasty and addictive! I try to control myself to go there too often because the food is way too awesome.

Always a Good Experience. My husband and I adore Zorba's. We've been eating there for two years, and we go at least once a month. A very casual, almost cafeteria-like atmosphere, but the food is delicious. Try the Pastichio or the Gyro Plate--pure heaven. Don't forget to bring a bottle of wine with you; Zoba's doesn't have a liquor license, but will be happy to provide wine glasses.

Disappointing First Try. My husband & I read all of the reviews & decided that we must try this place. He did not like the "to go order" experience- he felt rushed, Maybe that was our mistake. Perhaps trying the buffett first would have been a better idea. I love dolmas so my husband ordered two dozen. I tried to eat one, but the grape leaves were extremely stringy. It felt like I was chewing on dental floss. The flavor of the filling was good so I decided to cut a couple open. I didn't know that some put meat in dolmas. They were not a success with me. We called ahead and asked if they had falafels- we didn't realize that you had to make your own falafel sandwich. We may return, but now I know what to avoid.

Best Greek Food in Austin. Love this place.... Especially the dolmas! we often get two dozen to go and just live off them over the weekend... ... tried two Greek restaurants, one in the downtown area and one in Cedar Park, but hands down, Zorba is the best Greek in Austin!

Zorba's Rocks !!!!. We went to Zorba's on Sat. Aug. 27th at about 3:00 p.m. and while the lunch buffet was over at 2:15 p.m. we were glad we were waited on by Monica. She was the best waitress we have ever had. She was so attentive and worked so hard and fast we were exhausted just watching her. The food was OUTSTANDING. We had the Feed Me Plate and the Zorba Chicken Salad they were both fantastic and the pita bread was great. The Baklava was the BEST we have EVER had ANYWHERE. Everything was so flavorful & fresh tasting, it was beyond compare to any Greek food we had tasted.

Best Greek food in Central Texas. Zorba is a great little restaurant and no one should be turned off to the fact that it's in a strip mall because the food is great. Having lived in Greece a little while, it's exciting to finally find a place relatively nearby that has food that is almost as good as you get over there.

It's also great because you can bring in your own wine if you choose.

Awesome Greek!. We've been going to Zorba for about a year now. It's the best Greek we've found. The prices are great & the food is always fresh. The chicken is some of the best, the rice is always just right, & the hummus is creamy & seasoned to perfection. The vegetarian plate (my favorite) offers a great variety of dishes - we never leave hungry. They even have a very reasonably priced kids menu offering pizza or a hearty helping of chicken & rice.
