This week for Sips we went to Opa.  Asides from the obligatory beer, wine, and cocktails, they offered a few appetizers for their sips special. 

Mussels, Veal Meatballs, and Greek Fries were offered.  The Mussels were a little chewy and didn't seem as fresh as other places that offer them.  It may have been due to the fact that they were a sips item but I was rather dissapointing.

The Veal Meatballs were decent although the sauce was more impressive than the actual meatballs which did have some seasoning and spice.

Lastly we sampled the greek themed french fries.  They were covered in a cheese sauce with peppers and felt more like cheese fries with a minimal greek spin but they were probably the best value dish of the sips appetizers.

Ambiance-wise Opa has a nice layout and had it been less warm we might have explored the outside beer garden like area.  This is one place that I will probably go back to when it's not sips to actually sample their food for a do over.
