After the jump, have a look-see at the official dinner and dessert menus for Opa (1311 Sansom St., 215-545-0170), the new Midtown Village hang we sneak-peeked last week. Chef Andrew Brown (White Dog, Django) so far has us hyped for his grilled octopus (braised for four hours and served with chckpea fondue and chili oil) and his "bifteki" (a feta-stuffed beef burger ... nice!), but the gyro sliders, pastitsio and rabbit are also eye-catching.They'll serve food Monday to Saturday from 5 on. Opa is technically open right now, but brother/sister owners George and Vasiliki Tsiouris are calling this Thursday, Feb. 10, their official Day 1, with a grand opening party coming toward the end of February.
