Review Zorbas - Boksburg

Zorbas was amazing, had an amazing time with friends, and eventful evening with great entertainment from belly dancers, excellent singers and some crazy plate breaking and a wonderful Greek experience. Most friendly staff and Owners. Wow. It was good. Highly recommended on a Friday or Saturday night.

Best Greek food around. The lady called Memory is definitely an asset to your company. Such helpful service. She is the reason we will keep coming back. The kitchen messed up our take away and she took it apon herself and delt with the situation brilliantly. Thank you so much

Was a very quiet day to go, went on a Sunday but let me tell you, the food, and the service is well worth it and the staff after very friendly

We celebrated a birthday with a group of 18 guests. We had pizzas, prawns, lamb ribs, lamb chops and seafood platters. All good value and tasty. The desserts were not as good. The service was good.

We came with a big group of friends after the highlands gathering. This place was epic. The food was good. The service was top notch and the entertainment was awesome. There were belly dancers, plate breaking and some Greek dancing and singing. It was an amazing experience. Will definitely go again.

The restaurant is situated in a calm and cosy area close-by East Rand Mall, it is great for weekend outings with friends and family. I went there thanks to our boss who took our whole team out for lunch (whoopie lucky us! 😜), the staff was super friendly, with some apamiano music to dance to (if you don't mind being starred at), and their service was top notch!

Beautiful Greek resturant with amazing food lamb chops are superb and sea food is just as awesome. Milkshakes are amazing chocolate and strawberry. Chips are crispy and soft. Service with a smile and very friendly. Resturant has a very nice feeling to it as well as some amazing deco. They have some items for sale from necklaces to wine to different pastas. Overall I'd give this resturant a definite stop on your journey.

I never write reviews but.. On 25th of March we had experienced over 12 hours of load shedding, and were desperately hungry. We arrived an hour prior to opening time and yet were given warm coffee and an amazing breakfast on a rainy morning, despite that we were so early. The food itself was without fault and exceptional on every level! I had a sunrise pita that blew my mind and my wife had a breakfast stacker that she loved. Real Greek hospitality and superb food. And great service as well! 10/5

Place was lovely the food was delicious Prawns were so yummy and so were the Lamb chops. The salad was soooo fresh 👌 Will def recommend this place to everyone. Welldone guys Keep up the good work

Great food and service, would love to visit again

Excellent Greek food Great place for Lunch... Ouzo - Greek Coffee and 1920 all good We will be back again

First time eating there enjoyed the food had a hamburger that didn't look like an ordinary hamburger but tasted really good.

Love Zorbas , check your bill , we absolutely love it , great vibe , great food , we had some drinks , Bill came and we paid 10% as we always do , the waitress will be the reason we do not go back , we where not told tip is included in the bill , very sneaky from the waitress , so now we double check everything, why ??? Why did she have to be sneaky ? Can we please be told that tip is included in the bill instead of thinking we doing something nice only to be screwed ?????? We have now limited our visits because of deceitfulnes.

Had a great dinner and some cold beers. Will definately be back.

Great Service, Awesome food, Reasonable prices and tons of smiles

Greek food at its best! Mouthwatering is an understatement! Thank you Zorbas for consistently amazing food and service every time I visit you..

This place has the best quality and tasty food. The vibe has a real Mediterranean feel. Lovely place to go when you have an exhausted day at work. Michali the owner of this wonderful place. Really goes all out to make his customers feel at home. Greek socials Michali sings with so much passion and energy. Really amazing singer.

The food was fresh and delicious and with no corkage it was a serious value for money lunch. I would definitely recommend this place.

Wel had An awesome evening, the food was delicious, the drinks the best and the best vibe ever. Zorbas you will indeed see me again.

Had awesome food,something different to try,service was ok our waiter did not know much about the menu,would have been awesome if they had a wider range of cocktails but will definitely go back. Thx Zorbas.

Had a great time, chilled vibe, staff was very friendly and I enjoyed my meal, will go back again

Thank you so much for an unforgettable evening, The food, Entertainment and service was nothing but perfect,we will definitely be seeing Zorba's alot more in future. ���

Excellent food, wonderful atmosphere. Awesome talented singing Michalis. Friendly staff. ☆☆☆☆☆

Had my daughters birthday celebration there. What an awesome evening. Great entertainment and food. You guys rock.

My wife and I went there for the 1st time on Sunday 24.06.2018. Wow delicious food, we will be back.

Always serve the best food in boksburg and have the friendliest staff !!

Great food. Excellent value for money. Stella is a superb waitress .... always ask for her!!

I absolutely enjoyed my lunch yesterday with Donald Fowkes and friends awesome food awesome atmosphere and friendly staff. Been there now 2 weeks in a row

Went for lunch food absolutely delicious highly recommended. Will definitely go back again.�

We always have a great meal there. ..staff very friendly. ..

What an amazing and awesome place to go to and feel so at home and loved by everyone. Food excellent entertainment the best.

Beautiful food, lovely homely place.... They will certainly see us again.

Went for lunch. Not busy but took over 45 minutes to get our food. Food is good but the wait is way too long.

The food was good and fresh..Greek entertainment with Rosanna and Mixali was to dance for�� efxaristo��

I absolutely love Greek food and the food at Zorbas is amazing! It is fresh, delicious and satisfying.<br/>Yesterday, after a long and busy day, we chose to get a takeaway instead and the food was so, so good 😋<br/>The food was very neatly packed (compared to how other places pack food when ordering a takeaway) and looked so appetizing.<br/>The only reason this place gets 4 and not a 5 is the decor.. but the delicious food makes up for it...

We received the best service, the food excellent.. Definitely one of my must visit again places. To support my argument, include photos. Excellent<br/><br/>

Food was good but the service wasn't that great. Staff need to be trained on the simple things, like bringing a spoon when serving a cappuccino. Menus are very outdated and torn with the prices covered by tape, I hope this means we'll be seeing new menus soon.

The food at Zodbas is decent however it comes with an serving of attitude and snide comments behind one’s back. Speaking in greek doesn’t mean you can say what you want. Rule of thumb - others might also understand your language.

We love the food. Love the staff. The takeaway side of things could do with some improvement. Its either wrong or it is never ready the time i ask for it to be ready.

Went to Zorbas for the first time on Saturday for lunch. Vibe was relaxed and pleasant. We had cocktails to drink - strawberry and mango daiquiri's - they were lovely. Both had the mixed grill - absolutely Divine - fresh, tasty and some of the best chips I have ever eaten. Meat was tender, tzatziki great an all round sampler of so many delish things. Our waiter Stella was very attentive and friendly. For dessert the yoghurt nuts and honey - sublime. Great food, great pricing, relaxed way to spend a pleasant Saturday. Will definitely be back.

Good Mediterranean food with a great selection of Greek authentic food. They are quick with the food as well. Prices are very reasonable for average size portions of food, maybe not the best t in East Rand but well worth a stop.

I can only speak for take away orders we just placed. Not a quite a 5 although most people do rate Zorbas a 5! My meal was very good and I will be back for more. Unfortunately my colleague specifically requested no garnish and his pita was loaded with tomato and cucumber. When he called the manager on duty he said sorry about that have a good day?? Another colleague of mine jumped on the phone and only now will they replace their mistake. I also note there are quite a lot of complaints about the staff and other reviews......that said my meal was really good!

Had a fantastic time at Zorbas Taverna. Awesome ambiance, typical Greek culture - fantastic vibe! Our food was truly delicious. Good friendly service and a great variety of traditional Greek cuisine. Food is well priced and value for money. East rand need more decent resturants like this. Will be back next time I am in Jozi.

Bad service. Went there over the weekend. Along with our food, i ordered a single glass of wine. The head waiter brought two glasses of wine. When the bill came, we saw that he had ordered us the most expensive wine on the menu, that wasnt even available as a "per glass" option - came to R110 just for the wine. We refused to tip for this. Once we went home, we realized that there was an additional R40 that could not be accounted for on our bill. Upon calling them, we were informed that the head waiter had MANUALLY entered a tip for himself (we were a small table of 3, not a large group where an automatic tip could be applied) Very upset over this bad service, which is unfortunate because the food is fantastic quality, 10/10 for the food, it was very tasty and fresh. ------------------------------------------------- we were offered the option to have the wine removed from the bill, but we declined as we had already drank it, error or not. Upon calling the store about the additional R40, they apologized and offered a refund for this amount, which we can collect from them. The matter was handled well, but we will still choose not to return

Lovely relaxed vibe, well priced food and the food is delicious! We always order mixed grill platter and squid heads. Meal portions are relatively big. You can also smoke hub

Fantastic. Love the atmosphere.<br/><br/>The entertainment and the food is phenomenal. <br/><br/>I'm going back and having my next party there. <br/><br/>Thanks for such a fantastic restaurant.

Food is excellent, service good and entertainment just as awesome. Love the authentic food. They even have a deli selling Greek specialties, love it.

Upon arrival it was good we were greeted by friendly staff. The entertainment was a bit slow in the beginning as we expect a bit more Greek music and a greek vibe. But as the evening went on the Greek music was playing and dancing and breaking plates and the food was great we all were very happy with the food and service. The owners wish my mom a very happy birthday which made it really nice and the Greek singer well his a brilliant entertainer. Well done zorba.

I agree with some of the other comments. Really bad service. Looks like a cool place. Staff has got a stupid attitude like the don't want to work. I think it is to do with the management. I wouldn't recommend this place. A waist of time. So many other place around to go too. Haven't tasted the food yet.

Having not had a decent Yiro for a while i stopped in at Zorbas to grab a quick lunch take away. The decor is traditionally greek kitch but creates a great atmosphere and I'm sure it has lots of plate breaking madness come weekends. The staff and owners are very attentive and enthusiatic and take pride in their establishment. Better for a sit down meal as the take away beef yiro took a bit of a while. However was very clean and delicious. Beef pehaps could have been a bit tenderer but flavour was great overall. Would like to return to sample the rest of their menu and feel the ambiance in the evenings

Great hidden gem in Boksburg. Quaint place with a hospitable feel. Went on a quiet evening and was taken well care of. Food was good. Portions decent and flavourful.

Food is great! <br/><br/>Always enjoy everything I order but they take extremely long so if you have time, order from here! <br/>Authentic Greek food and customer service is good! <br/><br/>Must try !

Authentic decór, great food at good prices. The beef yiro was sublime and the grilled beef stripes platter kept my family quiet for many minutes. Great experience. Will definitely return.

I wish I could give you guys a better rating purely due to your authentic menu alas our dinner on Friday was a huge let down. The manager was way too young and immature to run a restaurant and the staff were confused and service was helter skelter. Our food took more than an hour to arrive. When my mixed grill arrived it had no haloumi which I queried and the manager produced this shortly after. Unfortunately our food was cold when it arrived and I asked the waitress to fix this. They proceeded to try and rectify this and microwaved it which made all the meat dry and chewy. Only good part of the meal was the Greek salad which was the best I've had in a long while.

Thanks to Zomato generously giving me a voucher to dine at Zorbas Taverna, I was able to try some delectable Greek cuisine.<br/><br/>The thing that I love about this restaurant is that it is small and intimate. The entire restaurant boasts the beautiful flair of Greece. They even have a magnificent painting of Greece on one of their walls. <br/><br/>I went with my mother and we both decided to try their platter for one. My mother's platter had sheftalia, chicken souvlaki, beef strips, halloumi cheese, chips, salad, tzatziki dip and pita bread. I ordered a vegetarian platter which also came with halloumi cheese, pita bread, tzatziki dip, dolmades and falafel. <br/><br/>The portion size of their platters were huge. One platter is enough to feed two people. In terms of flavour, all of the different elements on the platters really complimented one another and had a very distinctive taste. My favourite had to be the falafel because it was crispy on the outside and packed with spice on the inside. I must just add that the tzatziki dip was incredibly fresh and flavourful. The dolmades is an acquired taste. You will either love it or hate it. It is a stuffed vine leaf. In this case it was stuffed with rice. I have not yet decided whether I am a fan of it or not. Nevertheless, it is still worth trying!<br/><br/>To drink, we both tried a red coconut iced tea. It was so refreshing after the rather spicy food.<br/><br/>Thanks again Zomato for an incredible evening!

Who would have thought that a cheesily named restaurant in Boksburg would be THIS good? Not us!<br/><br/>Popped in for dinner this week and wow, were we surprised. The restaurant was mostly empty when we arrived, but there was still a great atmosphere.<br/><br/>We ordered the "Zorba Special" and the 3-piece Souvlaki grill. <br/><br/>The Zorba special can only be described as the ultimate Greek comfort food dish. Beef and haloumi cheese in a delicious tomato and onion salsa on a bed of chips and pita bread. It was a huge portion size which provided for lunch the next day. Deliciously tasty and flavorful.<br/><br/>The 3 souvlaki kebabs were seasoned beautifully and served with chips, delicious fresh tzatziki and warm pita bread. Again, enough for lunch the next day.<br/><br/>Service was friendly and efficient without being disruptively attentive. I got a portion of Baklava to take home and it was deliciously nutty and sweet.<br/><br/>Would we go back? Hell yes. This is a gem of a place to eat. Definitely a winner.<br/><br/>*Disclaimer: A portion of our meal costs were covers by a Zomato voucher, but all opinions remain our own*

Absolutely love ZorbaS. I have dined here a few times and have always been impressed by the service and delicious greek food. Definitely a lovely place to get a drink & eat.

First time visit and worth the drive. Authentic Greek cuisine. Definitely be back.good value and excellent service. Portions morw than enough.

Always come here when I'm missing my home country Greece, my South African girlfriend introduced me to this amazing place. The best Greek cuisine outside of Greece. Hands down. Amazing food and great friendly staff a must visit

Most times when I come to this centre we usually getting takeaways. So far we have only bought the Greek biscuits from here which are absolutely delicious. One of the days I will give the food a try.

Had a fantastic meal once again at Zorbas Taverna, awesome vibe and staff are great too! A MUST visit for a very tasty Greek Mediterranean cuisine <br/>BRAVO!!<br/>

Great Food, Great Service as usual. She'd talus, souvlakia, squid heads, loukanika are fantastic..................................................

We pop in often for a quick bite. Food is authentic Greek. Kofta and Sheftalia are family favourites. Reasonably priced, family run, friendly atmosphere.
