I have to tell you, I was so incredibly impressed with this whole place. When I first walked in, the atmosphere was great. Not crowded, they had the absolute coolest table lights. You could control the light on your own table for menu viewing purposes. It really set the tone. Then the food. Omg was it amazing. I met the owners of Albanas, they were very nice people. The wife is the head chef that actually is from Greece. Her food is Cooked so fresh. While talking to them, they were very clear that they wouldn't have it any other way. You can't find that anymore. It means so much. I read a few of the other reviews on here about how long it takes to get the food, to me, these must've been people looking for fast food in a sit down restaurant, this aint burger King people... it's worth the wait. My food didn't take long at all. The appetizers were sooooo good. Omg this spicy crumbled feta cheese was to die for. I'd love it if they sold it by its self I'd order it online and have it shipped to the house. I was so impressed with this place given the location and the end of a mini strip. I gotta say, the reviews that I read and their Google score pointed me here. If you're reading this trust me, go here, get the appetizers, and grab you a Gyro. You won't be disappointed, if you are you probably need slapped.
The owner here is actually Greek!!! So it is authentic!! I have been waiting a long time to find real Greek food, and finally have. Being from NY, I was used to having authentic Greek food at Greek restaurants.. but never once in Virginia have I found anywhere as good as this, until now!! The grape leaves, yogurt dip, tzatziki, and Greek salad with chicken we had were absolutely delicious..and the pita too..it was so fresh and warm!!
The owner is so nice and welcoming as well, overall excellent experience!!
Can’t wait to return :)
Stumbled upon Albana's when we were in Culpeper shopping. Hands down, without question, the BEST meal I have had in quite some time. The restaurant is clean, inviting, cozy and very nicely decorated. Everything we ate... from the warm pita bread, to the zucchini fries, to the salmon... downright AMAZING!!! I will be back over and over again! Do yourself a favor and stop in. You will not be disappointed!!! I can't stress how highly I would recommend Albana's!
Best Greek food I’ve had since moving to Virginia! Olive plate and zucchini sticks for appetizers, plus a house offering of pita and tzatziki.....excellent!
Four different mains, all very, very good! Alicia, our server, was prompt, helpful, and genuinely friendly...
Wonderful experience and fantastic food - definitely coming back!
Just had lunch — once again, best Greek food I’ve had since moving back to the US! Everything, and I mean everything, was delicious! Albana and Vic are wonderful hosts - made us feel like family! I encourage all who like Greek food to visit this treasure!
11 SEP update: had lunch again earlier today…just as good as the last time!
Great food and service. Went there for dinner after our hike at Shenandoah. Must try there is their Zucchini fries. Chicken souvlaki was great too. We also ordered Mousaka and Pastitsio. The food was delicious.
I'm so happy my husband and I decided to come here for dinner! The food was amazing! Everything we had was delicious- the pitas, the sauces, the chicken, beer, everything! The service was excellent as well.
If you are passing through Culpeper, don’t miss this restaurant. In fact, it’s probably worth going out of your way. Food is excellent. This visit I had the stuffed peppers. Absolutely delicious. Menu is just right. I will dine here again!
What a great experience at Albanas! My daughter and I drove 1.5 hours just to eat at this restaurant and we were not disappointed. The service was perfect and friendly. The authentic Greek food was hand-made and prepared by Albana herself, simply fantastic! We will definitely be coming back with our entire family and will tell our friends about Albana’s Taverna!
