Both were very good! Well stuffed with Plenty of gyro and feta ! The hash browns were perfectly fried, crunchy the way I like them! The place is well maintained, clean friendly attentive service!

Learned the hard way if you have your heart set on something and you end up eating somewhere else, it just doesn't work. I the restaurant we wanted for breakfast was packed as was our second choice so we found this down the street. I had the chicken souvlaki breakfast. It was very tasty but what I had to settle for. I probably wouldn't go back here as the menu is everything I can make at home. The food is good but not exciting. read more

The Olympic Family restaurant is the quintessential Greek diner. They really care about making their customers happy. The food is always good, the service is always good, and although the prices have come up dramatically in recent years, that seems to be the trend throughout the whole spectrum of the Restaurant industry. The restaurant is laid out nicely, with display cases for wonderful desserts strategically placed, the restaurant is nicely lit, the bathrooms are clean, and whether you come in to eat by yourself or with a party of 10, they will find a good spot for you. Stacy took good care of us tonight, refilled the coffee regularly, and checked on us often enough. I had the Philly omelette with home fries, and I asked that the home fries have both onions and garlic and this place really does make I think the tastiest home fries of any restaurant anywhere. That's saying something. Usually when I come, I get their excellent rice pudding, but I was just too full this time. Plenty of on site parking. read more

Great waitress she was fantastic. Wonderful to see that. It hasn't changed since I was there last. The food is always good. You will walk away full. Had the eggs & polish sausage with breakfast potatoes. Really good. will definitely eat here again and again. read more

The food was always what you would expect, it's not the best in the world but it's also not horrible, the desserts are always the best part, definitely recommend the rice pudding, it's great. The service was surprisingly fast, it always is, the waitress was nice and always asked us if we wanted more or needed more of anything. The decorations fit well with the color of the restaurant, we sat under bird statues which gave me lots of nostalgia, me and my mom would always sit under the bird statues when I was small. Would recommend. read more

The service here was friendly and attentive... the restaurant was clean, the bathrooms were clean... My friend and I got together for a late lunch here, we ordered two of the Monday specials... both of which were only OK... I got the fried bologna sandwich with fries... it came stacked with bologna, fried onions, and orange American cheese... not my favorite, but I wasn't asked what kind of cheese I wanted and didn't think to specify... it was a nice sized portion with a side of OK fries and a dill pickle spear... I'm not sure what I expected, but this was pretty ordinary... My friend got the Reuben, which looked pretty good, but she said didn't have a lot of flavor... sad for a sandwich that should be packed with strongly flavor items... sauerkraut, Russian dressing, Swiss cheese and corned beef... but it didn't have that flavor profile you'd expect ... So, we got an average lunch, nothing inedible, but nothing fantastic either... read more

I stopped here for breakfast one morning during the week. I ordered two eggs over easy with sausage and bacon and a pancake instead of toast. The food was good and the service was prompt.

Wednesday is burger night and they have a variety of burgers to try. I went with a simple bacon burger but I must say I was very impressed. Fresh ingredients and packed full of flavor. Prepared just as I requested. Couldn't ask for anything more. Even the fries tasted fresh. One of my biggest pet peeves is fries that are over cooked or dry from sitting under a heat lamp. Great lunch meal. read more

I was craving Spanakopita yesterday and hadn't tried Olympic's before for this so thought I would. I was expecting what I've had at Natalies on Millersport - I didn't get that. The filling was dry and the phyllo dough overcooked. The Greek salad wasn't anything special and the dressing is just meh. I will stick with the Pitaomlette in the future at Olympic - those are usually good. read more

I was here with friends this past Sunday. It was noon, so it was incredibly busy. We waited for about 15 minutes for our table, which isn't bad at all, considering how packed they were. Our waitress came over immediately and throughout the meal ensured our every need was met. I ordered the open face gyro souvlaki, which I've had from here before, so I already knew it'd be good. And it was! The gyro meat was seasoned well and the side of tzaziki sauce really gave it an extra depth of flavor. Unfortunately, my friends didn't fare as well. My one friend ordered BBQ chicken fingers and received hot. Her daughter ordered a side of fries that didn't come out until the very end. It wasn't great, but they were so busy that I'm not shocked. I've always loved it here, especially since it's not your average run of the mill Greek diner. The menu has a lot of great options apart from the standard breakfast fare, which is especially important because I'm gluten free and can't eat anything with it in there. The food is always good and comes out sooner than you think it will. The waitstaff is friendly and the prices are decent. I recommend this restaurant. read more

Love the open chicken souvlaki, kids love to eat here , service can be a bit iffy depending on time.

Who's hungry and on a budget? If you answered yes to both, then this may be the place for you. That is, if you are willing to face this awful intersection and parking lot to get some grub. It's a Friday night and my cohort agreed to what we equated to diner eating, despite being officially labeled a restaurant. Walking in, we immediately noticed a tower of desserts that I imagine was there to fuel our appetites. It did catch our attention until the hostess called out, leading us to a booth for two. The perky waitress arrived pretty much immediately, asking for our drink orders. We both got waters that come in far too short cups with bendy straws and ice, no fancy lemons (which is fine by me, less potential germs). I had already poured over the menu at home and was still making final decisions at the table. A lot of their offerings are things you can find most anywhere, though there are some different choices, like the spanikopita I was tempted to chose, one of their small listing of greek specialties. I considered an omelette, and almost did when I saw that you can substitute your side, as most places force home fries. But then, I found the one thing that I still struggle to pronounce, but don't struggle to eat. God bless the mind behind the Pitamalette. I am a sucker for eggs, and I'm a sucker for pitas. To be served both at the same time, count me in. You can add on home fries, which I opted out of, as I've been eating my way through a five pound bag of potatoes all week and am kind of sick of them. I went for the mushroom and cheese variety (the waitress said I could pretty much pick any of the omelettes listed for my wrap) and was presented with a sizable plate of food. The pita was warm and puffy, which is a bread lover's wet dream. The egg was cooked well, not rubbery nor under. I appreciated how the mushrooms seemed to be stripped, and although the cheese definitely tasted american, it harkened back to old school diner food that didn't need to be fancy, at least not at the price they were offering, a mere ten dollars! I personally chose to eat with a fork and knife, though it came wrapped in foil so you could go burrito style if you so chose. My cohort ordered off the printed menu, deciding on the fried clam dinner. Her roll (too hot to tear in half along the precut line) came first with two packets of butter and a cup of coleslaw that she remarked was quite enjoyable. The rest of her meal came very shortly after (the wait time for a weekend night is remarkably quick) and she was less excited. The kitchen had sent fries instead of home fries, which was easily fixed, at no additional cost. I stole a few off her plate that had cooled down sooner than I had expected. Perhaps she should have stuck with them instead of requesting the missing home fries, as they were the worst part of her meal. Chunks of potato instead of diced cube (which we acknowledge is up to interpretation) with not much char and no seasoning, not that she could taste until she added amply from the table shakers. The majority of her potatoes remained untouched and didn't even make it into the offered to go box. The potato salad, however, was cleaned off her plate with zeal, a buttery yellow smear left behind. The supposed star of the plate, the fried clams were neither divine nor abysmal, merely on par with what she said was a frozen clam dinner. Maybe she'd be better off returning to her usual salad, as she says there they do not usually disappoint. The food is the best prices you'll probably find in today's inflated world, as long as you're not looking for your socks to be knocked off. Which is probably a good thing, as you're in a public restaurant and you should keep your feet covered. The floor did squeak beneath my feet, and the overly clean smell of the bathroom made me glad I waited until I was done eating to use it, but this is a place you go to be fed, not to dine. It passes, and I'm compelled to try to replicate that pita that I still can't pronounce, but I'm not risking that cluster of traffic to rush back. read more

Good food and fast service! We came in for a couple of salads and they were HUGE, which was a delight. Definitely two meals worth at least. Waitress was super friendly too.

Love Olympic! They always have good food at great price and friendly service! Highly recommend!

Sometimes you need a fall back to options that don't work out. In the times we live in we all need back up dining locations just in case our first choices don't work out. And, that's what THE OLYMPIC continues to be for us! The perfect pinch hitter that always hits a home run when you need to score a great meal!! Breakfasts are incredible treats and yes, sometimes through the years I have been smart enough to start the day with the OLYMPIC as the first choice. It is a classic diner offering an extensive Greek leaning menu. The wait staff successfully meets all of the stereotypical standards from uniform to keeping your coffee cup filled! This week I tried their Chicken Souvlaki PitaMellette and believe me I could eat one of these everyday. The delicious flavors of a Greek Souvlaki within an omelet and a pita It was oh so good! The home fries crispy as requested but not burnt with a good flavor amazing texture just yum! My brother went for a more classic breakfast with pancakes bacon and eggs and he just loved his pancakes. Our waitress was fantastic although I wish she had worn a mask. In fact I wish the entire staff was wearing masks and these days of covid-19. Actually I wish 90% of the people eating had masks but my brother and I showed love for all as we wore our mask into and out of the restaurant. If you live in Buffalo you need to make sure the Olympic is in your breakfast and lunch and dinner lineup especially if you're trying to figure out where to go this is always a great choice! read more

I have been going to the Olympic since I was a teenager. I've never been disappointed with the quality of food and their casual Greek diner vibe. They are right across the street from the Royal, which is another great Greek diner. So, you can mix it up if you so choose. I tend to go for the spanakopita, Greek salad, and Greek potatoes. I really like their style of spanakopita, with flaky Filo and heavy doses of feta mixed in with the spinach. Their Greek potatoes have a delicious lemon flavor, and the portion they give you is really hearty. Covid has made their hours different, but during non-Covid times they would be open late into the night. Service is always speedy, and if you're in the mood for breakfast food, this is a great place to go. If you're looking for quick, affordable, and delicious food- this is the place to go. read more

I had a very nice 3 egg omelet filled with broccoli florets and processed cheese. More cheese was melted on top. The omelet is served with a generous serving of nicely crunchy home fries, but added onions and/or peppers are an extra $1.50 charge. 2 pieces of white, wheat or rye toast are also included, but pita or sourdough bread are also an extra charge. Olympic has a very large menu with many omelet choices. My broccoli and cheese omelet was a very satisfying choice. read more

The brunch place my friend and I wanted to check out was unfortunately closed for the day. We decided to try Olympic out because it was right down the street. I came in with no expectations and that's basically how I felt leaving the place afterwards. The food was meh and literally nothing special. I had the open chicken souvlaki and it was okay. My friend got an omelette and she also said it was alright. I will not be making a return visit. My food cost $13 and I could've honestly just made it at home lol. read more

Breakfast update- fantastic service. Coffee leaves something to be desired. Pancakes flavorful and fluffy. Omelet, chicken souvlaki generously stuffed but the omelet was a paper thin and a crepe like egg wrap. **this is not an omelet, I repeat not an omelet!** Thank goodness the hash browns and rye toast were good. I need better ideas for impromptu eats. read more

A decent diner lunch of texas hotdogs. The sauce was good but not amazing and the dogs were okay. Decent fries, especially when dipped in the sauce. I got the feeling the staff was really tuned out.

Amazing restaurant with incredible service. I stopped by for lunch this past Sunday before the Bills game (BIG PLAYOFF W). The wings are underrated and might be the very best in Western New York.

Greek American diner food that is simple and average quality. The service is good and the female only servers are attentive. The ambience is dated and tired looking. The pricing is above average for similar food and services. Fountain drinks are $3.99! You could get a beer cheaper at many bars for domestic. Meh read more

I came here a few times a long time ago & the food was amazing & the prices weren't to bad. Today,omg,total opposite. The portions were SO little & SOOOOO expensive. I wasn't satisfied with anything. I had the Beef Souvlaki Dinner with Greek Potatoes. What a SMALL salad it was. The steak was very dry & the potatoes weren't all that & I only got approx. 1 & 1/2 small Potatoes . The dressing did not taste like Greek dressing at all. It was so bland. Then,I ordered what was the smallest piece of Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie imaginable & it was I believe, $5.49 ?? VERY DISSATISFIED!! The only good things were : the waitress was very nice & the food came pretty quickly. I'll stick to a Kostas . Same price , but a HUGE plate completely full & everything is AMAZING !! read more

I'm a big fan of diners and I'm definitely a big fan of the Olympic Family Restaurant now. I stopped here yesterday morning with some friends from Connecticut who wanted some local diner food. This place is pretty big, offering plenty of seating and a friendly staff. The menu here is pretty extensive and all the breakfast, lunch, and dinner is available all day long. Since it was around 10:30AM when we ordered I decided to try the chicken parmesan melt with French fries. The food came out pretty fast (much faster then I expected with how busy it was) and it definitely surpassed my expectations. The French fries were my favourite kind of fries, something in between a steak fry and a shoestring, so basically it was the perfect thickness of fry. The sandwich was fantastic and I can't wait to eat it again. The best thing about the sandwich was that it wasn't a breaded chicken, it was a piece of grilled chicken with the sauce and the cheese and it was FANTASTIC. Overall, this diner won me over and I will absolutely be coming back. The food was great, the service was kind, and they were speedy to go with it. Do yourself a favour read more
