Live Greek entertainment @ the Olympia Restaurant's Acropolis Room could not accommodate the growing live Greek music scene.  So in the summer of 1974, Socratis Tingas & Peter Cocalis bought the vacant adjacent building and transformed the building into a function hall that could accommodate up to 300 people.  
The renovations for the Zorba Room were completed in 1975 to supersede what is now the Acropolis Room.  Many well known movie stars & musicians from Greece were brought to the Zorba Room include the folowing:
