Chef Zorba's has been a staple in the Congress Park neighborhood since it opened in 1978, beloved for its big breakfasts and Greek fare.

In 2004 it moved next door to a bigger and better spot; now it's getting its first facelift in a decade. The owners hope to have the work done by the weekend, and in the meantime they promise that the restaurant will remain open with no disruption to service.
