Zorba Lounge

Went to this spot on a Sunday night to watch a football game, the atmosphere is laid-back and inviting, our food was piping hot and my salad was fresh and crisp. They only had one bartender but it's a small place so I can see why. The two cooks they had were funny and friendly. Will definitely go back to have a drink or watch a game

Tucked away in the same rather unremarkable strip center as the Spinx Corporate offices is a true hidden gem, Zorba Lounge. Easy to miss if you’re not looking closely at the corner of Washington and Laurens Road, look for the “temporary” blue sign at the top (it’s been temporary for a while). If you’re a first-timer, don’t bother to look at the menu. Just order the steak sandwich. It’s the best in GVegas, and like EVERYTHING else on the menu, it is huge. It’s available on a onion bun with mayo only for $12.95, other condiments extra. You can add fries for $3, but just get the half order, any more and they pour off the edge of the plate. You could also get the steak sandwich sub ($13.95), which comes on a hoagie roll and already has mayo, grilled peppers, grilled onion, mushrooms and provolone- again, just the half fries, they’ll end up out on the table anyway. My colleagues chose the half chef salad (all you could need at $10.75) and the Reuben ($8.75), which is appropriate only if you’ve already had the steak sandwich on a previous trip. Be patient with Susan behind the bar, on our recent Tuesday visit (and most other days) she’s on her own and literally running to keep up with orders for the whole place. A visit to a bar and grill still stuck in the 70’s decor, you don’t want to miss.

I just ate there for the last time. As many other patrons have said the food is terrific with generous portions. But the waitress/bartender that has “served” me many times over the past year has recently interacted with my wife and I as though we were a bother and irritation to her for even being there. It’s an understatement to say that I’m the easiest customer to serve. I don’t need to even look at the menu! I’m NEVER on my phone when asked what I want to order, like so many rude people are. I place my order in literally 5-10 seconds. Diet Coke is all I ever order to drink. When I ask politely for a refill, this waitress will let me sit there with food I want to eat and fold napkins, take other people’s drink orders, chat it up with customers and then, when it suits her, begrudgingly drop off a refill without saying ONE word!! Today when she brought our food to our table she mumbled “mm- huh” and that was it! Unbelievable. I want it to be known that I have always and I do mean ALWAYS tipped her 20-25% regardless. I can excuse a waiter/waitress bringing bad food or spilling something on me, but I DO NOT excuse ANYONE treating my wife and I with such disdain and rude behaviour. I don’t do rude people.

Wow. I paid $15 for the steak sub on Saturday. It was big so I only had half and saved the second half for lunch the next day, my first half was full of meat so I thought “okay, worth the money”. Next day I’m on my other half and realize there is nothing but onions and mushrooms and 3 small pieces of meat. What a rip off. Definitely will not be returning.

Zorba never disappoint for me when comes to hot food. I had chicken tenders (bagged brand) and loaded french fries with cheese, sauteed mushrooms and onions. It was so delicious. They also serve some mixed spirits which was spot on in taste. This is my go to spot for hot food and jukebox music which can get packed with people on any given night.
