Bala Cynwyd ( /ˈbælə ˈkɪnwʊd/ BAL-ə-KIN-wuud) is a community in Lower Merion Township which is located on the Main Line in southeastern Pennsylvania, bordering the western edge of Philadelphia at US Route 1 (City Avenue). It was originally two separate towns, Bala and Cynwyd, but is commonly treated as a single community. This came about when a single US Post Office served both towns (the "Bala Cynwyd" Branch) using ZIP code 19004. The community was long known as hyphenated Bala-Cynwyd. Bala and Cynwyd are currently served by separate stations on SEPTA's Cynwyd Line of Regional Rail.

We started with some amazing hummus - garnished with cucumber and a pickled turnip. The wines were delicious and the food seemed very authentic.My vegetarian moussaka was different from others I have had, but very good.Others had the arctic char, salmon and chicken -- all with rave reviews.We finished by sharing some cake made with rosewater and topped with almonds.It was a nice end to a great meal.

True, it was a Sunday evening but when we walked into a totally empty restaurant warning bells should have gone off. That being said, it was a mixed bag and thus a mixed review. Our server, Jenna, was fantastic. She could not have been nicer or more accommodating. Warm bread was accompanied by a garlic olive oil dipping sauce that was, if you like garlic like we do, superb. We ordered two entrees, Shrimp Glyfada (Extra jumbo shrimp, sauteed with olive oil, garlic, shallots, ouzo, Greek olives, feta cheese and tomatoes, over rice pilaf) and Pastitsio, a Greek version of lasagna. The shrimp dish was great, the pastitsio not so much. The cinnamon and clove flavor was overwhelming and was really not to my taste. We finished up the meal with a generously sized piece of baklava, but it was obvious it was refrigerated and I prefer my baklava room temperature. So you have one happy diner (shrimp glyfada) and one unhappy diner (pastitsio & baklava).

Zorba's Tavern

Reviewed By MomofShadow

We went here for our anniversary and were not disappointed. It's BYOB which keeps the price down and their is a liquor/wine store a few blocks down the street. The cold appetizers were fantastic. For dinner I had the octopus and my husband had the meat sampler. Both were amazing! We also ordered dessert and coffee but had to bring most of our dessert home since we were so full from dinner. We will definitely be back!
