    Chicken dinner with stuffing, gravy
    Catherine R.

    What a gem! First visit . We both got the Lemon Chicken Soup...perfection. Fresh, warm pita bread brought to the table. He got the chicken dinner with stuffing and gravy and a side of traditional Greek potatoes. Excellent. I got the Greek Combo dinner and it was fantastic. Stuffed grape leaves, Moussaka, Spanokopesda, Pastitsio...so, so good. We split a piece of Baklava warmed and extra honey drizzled over. Service was great, ambiance is warm and homey - lots of Greek pride. We will most definitely be back.

    Gyro.
    Hester A.

    Olympic Cafe has always been a favorite of mine while visiting Anna Maria Island and Holmes Beach. However, sad to say, this time was the exception. The ambiance is definitely Greek with lots of Greek memorabilia on the walls. The service was excellent although they were closed unexpectedly the day before due to a staffing issue. The food wasn't up to its usual standards. The Gyro was dry and the cabbage roll was tasteless. I won't be back this trip, but I will give them another shot when we're back in the new year. To bad as our party expands tomorrow to ten people.

    Large Greek Salad

    Great Greek Salad I love Greek salads, the dressing carries such bold flavor. Include some feta cheese and kalamata olives and you have an explosion of good tastes, and there is so much more. From traditional to whatever other ingredients work, it is a bowl of bright colors and flavors. Lettuce, no lettuce, onions for sure, as are tomatoes and cukes. The one I had today from Olympic Café even had a few banana peppers. I fondly remember one where there was a scoop of potato salad on top. The Greek Salad I had at Olympic Café ranks very well. It was on a deep plate or a shallow bowl, looking very attractive. I enjoyed making the whole thing disappear. The last part, swimming in dressing, was the best part for me. Where's my spoon? I liked the place and the service was friendly and good. The tables are close together, like pre-covid spacing, I hope we don't go back to that too soon. They also added a small service charge for using a credit card. I didn't look at the menu, maybe it disclosed that. I found out when I went up pay.

    Pita appetizer

    The salad is very big and the pita appetizer was delicious. The service was very good too.

    Wholesome family restaurant; very busy but still great service. They were very accommodating to making changes to meals for the little ones (just bowl of plain pasta with butter and Parmesan cheese, and fries). The portions are pretty hearty, most of us had leftovers to take home. The eggplant Parmesan was filling and tasty. Definitely recommend getting the gyros platter.

    Was looking for a Greek diner with Gyros, this place was great! Great service. The interior quaint but could use update. But def worth the trip. Portions big also

The pizza was loaded with flavor from the first bite to the last. The combination of savory Italian sausage, pepperoni, and layers of cheesy goodness made every slice incredibly satisfying. It's the kind of pizza that's hearty, filling, and leaves you completely content after just a few bites. You can tell care goes into the preparation, and the quality of the ingredients really shines through. If you're a fan of stuffed pizza and bold flavors, this is definitely a place to add to your list. I'll be back the next time I'm craving a truly satisfying pizza experience.

To me, the beef roll was the star of the show as it was completely stuffed with meat and authentic seasonings...perfecto! Deep dish pizza was generously topped with cheese - always important, right? The thin crust also had plenty of cheese and the other two toppings, sausage and onion. Delicious meal - highly recommend!
