People had recommended this restaurant to me several years ago, but I never made it in. We moved away 4 years ago and were back in town for a visit. My sister suggested this place after going there with a group of people. We were duly impressed. The food was very good, the portions huge, the prices excellent, and the wine list adequate. Be prepared to take half your dinner home with you. Excellent value. We will be back.
Dined for an early supper on a Saturday without a reservation. Were seated in a separate front room away from the main area. Too bad as it was small with nothing to look at. Service was friendly and efficient. Buns and butter served pre- dinner as well as a Greek salad. Salad was exceptionally good aside from the fact that there was only 1 olive. Would have definitely liked a couple more. Ordered the Greek feast (feeds 4). It came with chicken souvlaki, ribs, rice, 4 small lemon potato wedges and 2 appetizers. Deep fried ham and cheese roll ups and rice and beef stuffed in grape leaves. We also added on chicken liver appetizer as we didn’t think the platter would be enough for 4 people, but it would have been just fine as we were stuffed by the time we finished. Everything was tasty, ribs and chicken very tender and moist. Only complaint was that the lemon potatoes were mealy in texture. Unfortunately no room for dessert but maybe next time.
The servers were pretty chill. The place started out moderately quiet, but as 6pm turned to 7 the place got quite loud. I was seated at the area up the stairs and I found the lighting to be a little dim. There was a belly dancer who started interacting with guests, while special music played. The food itself was good. The pizza had nice fluffy dough, it was tasty. I had the Athenian chicken, and the chicken was a little dry but the toppings on it were good. The rest of the veggies had gotten a little cold, likely waiting for the rest of the bill to be made. The same sort of thing happened with the other dish (the seafood chicken plate, I am not sure the name). The chocolate cheesecake was delicious and plated beautifully. Overall, a very good family-run restaurant.
I recently took my mother out to Olympia Greek tavern. This was Mother's Day and we just walked in off the street without any reservations. The hostess was able to find us a table. Thankfully as they were booked to capacity all evening. This place was a buzz and very Lively. The atmosphere feels I bit cramped with all the vegetation growing in the space. And the decor style seems like from the eighties. Aside from that I had a great time. The food was delicious. I had the 10 ounce New York steak with Poseidon's toppings. And my mother had a seafood pasta. My steak came to the table still sizzling and cooked to perfection. The seasonal vegetables were fresh and the rice was Tangy and delicious . The chef was on fire that night!

Thank you to the owners and the staff for accommodating Us in such a busy evening.
We enjoyed a lovely Greek meal at this establishment. We have been coming to this place lots over the last 20 years. Family owned and very friendly and warm environment. The food is always top notch. Highly recommended!
Holy moly.
The hosts were wonderfully polite, our server was knowledgeable, efficient, attentive and prompt.
I ordered Mousaka with a side of lasagna (because I was crazy hungry). I've never tried Mousaka, and thought I'd try something new. I can NOT rave enough about how delicious this dish was!! It was perfect, tasty, and filling enough for me to take the "side" of lasagna because it was filling. SO impressed and amazed at just how delicious everything was. My family also stated that they've never had a bad experience here.
I will 100% recommend to my friends, and anyone else who cares to listen!
Great food and atmosphere, we had new years eve dinner there and it was a lot of fun. They had a belly dancer but wish and can't wait for ano6new years party!
A nice greek resturant, lots if choices, great food, nice ambiance and friendly service. (They have belly dancing on special nights.) It's a great place to take your date. Love their Chicken Souvlaki and moussaka
I ordered the Lamb Trio (which also came with Greek salad), which is perfect for the undecided lamb lover as it comes with three different lamb cuts. The portion sizes were big and the food was amazing. The staff were very friendly and fast, and the atmosphere and decor added to the experience.
Amazing food. Ingredients were very fresh. The Saganaki was a show but honestly the best I’ve had in a while. Service was phenomenal all night and we were well taken care of.
A Gem in rutland!
Last night we tried out Olympia after living nearby for 3 years.
We were so impressed with the experience here, from the decor & vine, right down to entertainment as we dined. A belly dancer was performing in the restaurant as we were sat.
Good wine, great menu! They have so much to choose from and we were impressed with everydish!
Get the Olympia platter if you want a true taste of their Greek food. Best Greek salad & tzaziki in town!
Love this place! Atmosphere is fantastic with all the plants and the service is beyond amazing. One of our favorite places!

The gluten free pizza is amazing, mine without cheese due to allergies. Probably the best thing I've eaten in ages!
Came here for a table of 11. The food took quite a bit of time to come out and the restaurant wasn't that busy.
Ordered the meat lovers pizza and it was really good. One of best pizzas I have tried. My wife ordered the calamari and it was quite good as well.
Some other families we were eating with ordered that $60 platter and it looked massive/huge.
Anyways, I'm quite happy with this place. Check it out.
Love this place best food in town
Good food and lots for the price, best service we've had in town in a while, nice atmosphere that was not to fancy but still nicely themed.
Sad to have arrived after the belly dancing was done but that's just another reason to return.
There is also a great list of appetizers if you just want to grab some with some friends.
This place is deceptively wonderful. I say deceptively because from the outside you'd never know how nice of a restaurant it is inside because that part of Rutland isn't generally eye pleasing. Not only do I like the inside look of the restaurant with the decor and architecture, the food is delicious, well priced for the portions and quality you get, and service has always been pleasant. For a nice evening out, you got to eat here. As a suggestion to the restaurant, some of the tables are in awkward positions (in the middle of high foot traffic of servers and customers) and may benefit from being relocated/repositioned but that's just a personal opinion.
We recently ordered food from the restaurant for my Dad's 90th birthday celebration. Every dish was fantastic, tasty and plenty of all. They offered to pack it family style which made it look attractive and easy to serve with the current social distancing.
Thank you to Mike and his team for making this such a great experience. Your restaurant is an asset to our community!
My husband and I came in for the first time and had an amazing experience! The food was perfect, delicious and large portions. Our server Emma gets an 11 out of 10 she was so pleasant and very accommodating. Our evening out was one of the best we have had in a long time. Thank you so much, we will definitely be back next time we are in Kelowna.
