Anyone who has helped me order there is always super pleasant I've never had a bad experience. The interior is more for take out but they do have like 4 tables so you can enjoy the food there. Just a heads up if you order ahead for catering do it online. Prices are the same but it helps to track it better!

LOVE the 2 for $5 mini pita pocket special on Tuesdays! They have chicken, chicken fingers, beef,…read morefalafel, and gyro! My favorite is the chicken finger and falafel. I'm not a big red meat person but all my friends have said great things. They have green salsa that is spicy but has the perfect kick. I prefer to call in our order as they can be pretty busy. They're friendly and always confirm our order. They have seats inside and always have the fans running. It's great to enjoy the pits pockets and sit in a cool area.

I stopped by this Wednesday and was absolutely thrilled with my experience! The Greek Salad was…read moreamazing, and the Greek Chicken was just as delicious. I love the ambiance at Elsa's Kitchen--it's warm, welcoming, and a great place to enjoy a meal. I noticed they had a lot of to-go orders, which says a lot about how popular they are. Gabriela is incredibly kind and makes sure every guest is well taken care of. The cook clearly takes pride in his food, and it shows in every dish. This is a very well-run restaurant with excellent service and outstanding food. Highly recommend!

As an example, I ordered a egg burrito with hashbrowns and sausage to my disappointment. The sausage was burnt to a crisp. I was also disappointed to learn that they no longer offer their green salsa. Do we have a new cook on board?

I can for the viral Wagyu Shawarma Cheesesteak. It was very tasty with a mix of peppers, onion…read morecheese and sauce. Whatever sauce they used gave it a bit of spiciness. I went at 3:30 pm on a Saturday and was surprised that it was pretty busy at that weird time The sandwich was huge ( probably 12 inch sub) so depending on how hungry you are, you could easily split it. I loved the fries. Whatever seasoning they used gave is perfect

Man I really wanted to like this place due to all the rave reviews. Our first experience was mixed…read morewith some meats being great and others dry beef bits that weren't very tasty or appealing. Our second experience we got the chicken shawarma Brian's way. Everything was cooked well, but I guess although I like pickles, I'm not as big a fan of Mediterranean pickles. The first bite or two were actually good, but subsequent bites the pickle tanginess was overwhelming and just not so pleasant as I finished it. I thought maybe I'll get it without the pickles next time. However, after eating I got an unexpected headache that usually comes from ingestion of MSG. The fries were tasty... maybe there was MSG in those? Not sure. I've honestly had much better phenomenal shawarma in San Joes CA. I have yet to find a great Shawarma here in San Diego. Feel free to recommend.

First time here. I'm a huge fan of Greek and wanted to try a new place. After reading the reviews I…read morewas excited. I ordered the Greek chicken salad and the gyro sandwich. Honestly I was super disappointed in my salad- 2 cucumbers, 2 tomatoes and 2 pitted Kalamata olives and the smallest amount of feta cheese. For a large salad I felt this was very inadequate and for the fact that it was $17+ dollars. The chicken had good flavor. My understanding is that white and yellow onions are for cooking and red is for raw consumption, this gyro was packed with white raw onion and the outer skin. I called and the girl was nice and offered to remake my salad and expressed that I could have asked for more veggies on my salad, had I asked. If you're getting a salad make sure you check it before you leave. I politely declined the offer for a remade salad.

As usual, had such a great meal at Olympic Cafe. This is one of those places that feels comfortable…read moreand welcoming the second you walk in, with generous portions and food that tastes homemade. The Kokkinisto was the standout for me. The beef was incredibly tender and rich without being heavy, and the tomato-based sauce had that slow-cooked flavor that makes you want to keep dipping bread into it long after you're full. Comfort food in the best way. We also had the chicken skewers with rice, salad, pita, and tzatziki, and everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly grilled. Even the simple side salad and feta felt fresh and thoughtfully prepared. San Diego has a lot of Mediterranean spots, but this feels authentic, unfussy, and is consistently good, clearly has heart behind it.

Giro Sandwiches-- good but worst…read more tzatziki -- a Greek sauce made from: * Greek yogurt (thick and strained) * Cucumber (grated and drained) * Garlic * Olive oil * Fresh dill (sometimes mint) * Lemon juice * Salt I've ever had... horrible. Never going back. I used to love this place. Not really sure what they gave in little plastic containers... bad!

I have eaten at over 50 Greek/Mediterranean restaurants and not one comes close to this. The food is fresh, flavorful and the portion size is awesome. The owners of the restaurant are really kind and you can tell they genuinely care about the customer experience and put a ton of effort into making sure the food is delicious and authentic. After eating here it will be very difficult to enjoy any other greek restaurants. I enjoy trying new places but this is definitely going to be somewhere I will frequently visit.

Their Greek potato salad had a flavor profile that did not disappoint ... zesty ... citrusy. Yum! I love the new owners.

Came in to grab some food…read more They have a couple different options. I got the chicken kebab plate. The portion size was pretty big. I like that the plate has a variety of carbs, proteins and salad. Flavor wise the food was good and Salad was fresh. Plenty of seating options inside and a small patio area. parking was a bit tight.
