★★★★★ 5.0 S King · Feb 2026

Orapax restaurant has been a family-run local favorite for many decades. Their menu is varied and they offer lunch and daily specials with many options for vegetarians and vegans. Their food is fresh and well prepared and never disappoints. The restaurant is clean, comfortable and inviting. It is the perfect place for a date or special occasion. Prices are competitive. Service is always professional and welcoming. They can get very busy so call ahead for wait times or reservations. Service can be a little slow during peak times but their food is worth the wait and their meals are meant to be savoured. Orapax has the very best Greek and Mediterranean food in Norfolk and is not to be missed.

★★★★☆ 4.0 KakuBites · Dec 2025

Orapax is a warm, family-run Mediterranean restaurant in Norfolk. It combines a large, accommodating dining room with a genuine neighborhood feel. The Food: 🇬🇷 Greek Sampler Platter. A great introduction to the menu. It features nine different offerings, but the Dolmades were a standout with spiced ground beef finished with a bright lemon sauce. 🔥 Saganaki. Served with wonderful flair! The flaming cheese was a great companion to the complimentary basket of fresh baked Greek bread. 🥣 Grain Bowl: A fresh and hearty option. The mix of fresh and pickled vegetables on a wild rice base was excellent, especially when paired with the feta and the cooling tzatziki/spicy cilantro sauce. Service: Special thanks to Hanna for the attentive and professional service. It was also a pleasure to meet Ni

★★★★★ 5.0 Lita Staskey · Dec 2025

The food is so fresh and delicious. There’s so much to choose from I can’t wait to go back. We were with a large party and I was impressed with the customer service and speed. It was very packed. Parking was a little difficult but nothing too crazy. Everyone in the 13 person party was extremely happy with their food selection. That doesn’t happen very often.

★★★★★ 5.0 Alexis Dease · Oct 2025

We went here for my husband’s birthday dinner and it was delicious! My husband has been to many places in Greece & was searching for authentic food in the area to fill his craving. Orapax hit the nail on the head for him! He loved the Saganaki, as well as the gyro platter and drinks (Santorini sangria & a mule). I got the pasta with Alfredo sauce which was great, as well as their Greek salad and bread. Orapax has beautiful ambience inside. We will definitely be back to try more and recommend to our friends.

10/10 experience . Our server Natalie was the sweetest most welcoming person ever! Food was amazing (their portions were bigger than expected so that’s always good ) & the atmosphere over all was perfect. Came on a Thursday night for table for two & was seated immediately. Think I found my new favorite restaurant & will definitely come back again!
