    We were craving gyros so we ordered carry out. Olympus has been around for decades and doesn't disappoint. Their gyros prices are steep compared to other local joints, but the amount of food makes up for it. One gyro dinner plate ran us $17 and change after tax, but was enough to feed 2 with some gyro meet still left over. Staff were friendly and quick. The interior is pretty sparse- you come here for the food, not the ambiance.

    Best gyro I've ever had! Wow! I don't even like gyros but this is top tier. I will be back! Highly recommend.

    Straight forward Chicago style gyro joint.

    We wanted to try somewhere new today and went with Olympus Gyros due to their high rating and reviews. Upon entering, we were greeted by the lady behind the counter. She took our order promptly and we sat in a booth. The dining area is simple but clean. We received our meal in about 5 minutes. The portions are more than plenty. The fries and basic fries, but their gyro meat comes on the side with pita, tzatziki sauce, onions, tomatoes, and a small Greek salad. I like that they leave it to you how much sauce and everything you want on your sandwich! The salad was tasty, and all ingredients seemed fresh. The chicken gyro meat was delicious. Not too oily and not dried out. Overall, we were very happy with Olympus! The prices are slightly high, but not enough to deter us from returning. Excellent lunch!

    YUM, Olympus Gyros - you are a find! One of my favorite foods is the Chicago-style gyros - I can literally eat this on a daily basis and will never get sick of it. HA. Olympus Gyros has been around for years, and this family -owned and -operated business is loved by the locals - you can tell that they have a great relationship with their patrons, as I've overheard conversations that included how the family/children were, health, etc. - so nice! Besides gyros, they also have soups, salads, Chicago-style hot dogs, sausages, burgers, sandwiches, various sides, and 'meal deals' - look for their specials of the day by the cash register. Stopping by for a quick bite, I ordered the Gyros Sandwich with extra onions and extra tomatoes, well-done. The gyros themselves were sliced perfectly and tasted so good; the onions and the tomatoes were fresh and plentiful. The pita bread was fluffy and one of the better pita breads I've had. The service here is very friendly, welcoming, and kind. The place is set up like a small diner, with some booths inside. A small parking lot if available to park your vehicle. I'd like to return again for their gyros, but also to try out their 'famous' tacos, fish sandwich, and burgers. YUM! +tasty gyros! +friendly service! +private lot available for parking

    We were in the are doing a delivery and when we searched on Yelp for a place to have lunch this one was less than a mile away on the street we were driving on! They have a private parking lot. We placed our order and got it really quickly. We ordered two Gyros sandwiches and the meat was a little over cooked for my husbands liking but I thought it was great! The weather is in the 30's today and the restaurant was warm and had heaters running which we appreciated. The lady who took our order was very sweet. We will be back for sure if we are in the area! They have lots of great menu items and variety. Check it out and see what you think!

    Date: 25-June-2024 Time: Lunch Total (before tip): $14.97 Payment type: Cash Server: Counter order Grade: C- I was in a mood for a Gyro and decided to come here. The place looked a bit outdated both inside and out. I came up to the counter and placed my order, which was #10, Gyro Sandwich (no onions) with Fries and a Drink. It did not take long for my food to come out. I picked it up at the same counter. I was a bit disappointed... The Gyro looked a bit anorexic... And the fries looked overdone. I started with the fries and they were okay, the pre-frozen kind. Gyro was a bit dry and over moistened at the same time... Just a weird experience overall. What was even stranger, was the fact that someone came in and their food was brought out to them... So certain customers get different treatment... Overall a C- experience! I will be back to try something else.

    Had not been here in sometime.  The gyros are still as delicious as I remembered.  Fries crispy and fresh.

    I had not been in a while and decided to get a Gyro and as always did not disappoint. Thanks you.

Since there was a total of 11 and the seating is first come first serve, we decided to call to see if they had reservations. They did take our name and reserved a table. When we arrived we noticed a table was reserved and we were informed that it was our table. We sat and looked over the menus. When we were ready my 2 boys and I went up to place our order. My one son has major allergies so we spoke to the chef and he came back out to recommend the dishes he can have. It was great that he did so and gave us confidence that my son would be able to eat without worrying too much about the ingredients. I ordered the Shrimp Kalamakia with a side of the Greek Rice. My son with the allergies ordered the Pork Kalamakia with Greek Rice and no pita, my other son ordered the Traditional Pork Gyro with Greek Rice. The sides we ordered: Saganaki Fritters and Spanakopitakia. My son that ordered the Pork Kalamakia devoured it. He said it was tender and juicy and probably could have eaten 4 skewers. My Shrimp Kalamakia was nicely charred and seasoned, I squeezed some lemon and it provided a nice tang over the seasoning. The Lemon rice pilaf was soft and cook just right and was nicely balanced. I had one Saganaki Ball and it was delicious. My son had the Pork Gyros said it was really good and the Tzatziki sauce was creamy and rich with flavors. My in-laws bought the table desserts and I got the Baklava and my wife got Loukoumades (Greek Donuts with Nutella) and both did not disappoint. I really loved the citrus honey syrup in the Baklava. The Loukoumades had a crispy shell and nice a fluffy on the inside and the Nutella amount was perfect. This place is very good and well worth the price in my opinion. I loved the fact that they took the time to make sure my son with allergies was safe.

A few "highlights" of our visit: Dishonesty: A server lied and said there was no kids' menu (which is clearly listed on their website) just to avoid a meal substitution. When I asked about ordering chicken tenders, the server told me they didn't have a kid's menu and were only making an "exception" for my daughter. I later found the full kids menu on their website. Instead of simply explaining an age policy, he chose to be dishonest and was visibly annoyed that I even asked. Being Ignored: It took 20 minutes and multiple people flagging down a server just to get one bottle of Coke. I asked the female waitress 3 times for the Coke and she repeatedly looked at me and ignored me. It took 20 minutes and 3 family members calling out to the server to get her attention. Disrespect: The hostess literally put her hand in my face when I politely asked for a to-go bag. I politely asked the hostess for a to-go bag, she actually put her hand in my face and told me to "hold on." When she finally returned, she mean mugs me and handed me the bag without a word even after I gave her an underserved thank you. If this were my party, I'd be demanding a refund. This place makes other local diners look like five-star establishments. Unbelievable and completely disappointing. Will never be returning.

Option 1: Drive 30 to 45 minutes into the city and eat in Greek Town. Not ideal, but the worst thing in the world. Option 2: Avoid the cumbersome drive and eat at Naxos! This is a GREAT option! So, we were in Schaumburg for a reason and we stopped in for lunch. First thing you notice is that the place is nicely decorated. Appropriately "Greeky," I'd say. It's clean, bright, ethnic enough, and welcoming. The service was excellent. George (yeah, he's Greek-American) did a great job of explaining the menu and making suggestions. Service was fast, friendly, and accurate. We loved: The red beets, the garlic spread, the Greek bread, the potatoes, and the avgolemono soup. Although the pastitsio was not the best ever, it was still very good, and the portion was BIG! We left satisfied. The price?

She has dark hair with tattoos, going up her right arm. I had Saganaki which was delish, the egg lemon soup, which is to die for and for my meal I had a hot appetizer-Shrimp Naxos. It is big shrimp in tomato sauce and garlic with crumbled feta. So tasty. I definitely will return and try some of the other dishes. Surely this place is authentic.
