The Greek gods of Olympus never got their own comic-book franchise, although some of them did get cameos in Thor, Marvel Comics' take on Norse mythology. Opa! offers Greek food that is heavenly and never comic, although the flambé dishes, especially the flaming saganaki cheeseburger, have an entertainment value that matches their culinary appeal. Of special note: Opa! is a local leader in offering incredibly tasty gluten-free options for people managing celiac disease. Perhaps that's one reason why Opa! has taken the top spot in this category away from Fronimo's Greek Café and Athens on Fourth Avenue, who had see-sawed in the Best Greek slot since 2002.
