I would highly recommend calamari, yummy :) it was the largest meal i have ever eaten....lovely service as well
The food was delicious. We ordered the pita and tzatziki to start followed by the pasta royale and a pepperoni and smoked ham with added pineapple pizza. Can hardly wait to go back and try more of the menu.

This Greek restaurant is located at Denman and Nelson in downtown. It is still in the popular area that attracts tourists or local people to come in and enjoy the Greek food.
We came here for lunch as we saw an a-board outside the restaurant that listed $12.45 for lunch specials. Their lunch menu had a wide variety of items and most of the dishes were at a great price. We ordered two dishes from the lunch menu - roast lamb and moussaka. What a great deal! The portion was quite big and the quality was good! Even the pita bread was very fresh baked from the oven. The roast lamb was very tender and tasty. Moussaka was quite big with a lot of beef in the middle. Very delicious!
The server there was very friendly and polite. We ordered two cups of hot water with lemon. When she delivered the hot water to our table, she mentioned that the water was boiling hot from the pot, so she asked us to be careful when we drank it. She was very caring about customers.
Interior design was a bit old inside the restaurant but the style and ambience along with the Greek music made it more authentic. We love this restaurant and would like to come back and try other dishes.
Still the best location for calamari, pizza and lasagna. Had the $10.45 calamari lunch special. Calamari was stacked high, done tender and to perfection. The entire meal was exceptional. Rice and Greek salad portion was generous and tasty. Also comes with roasted potato and pita bread. Have had their pizza and lasagna before and have no regrets meals are always done right. If you are in the west end you should give the Olympia Pizza a try.
My partner & I eat here often
We always have quality food served promptly and hot
Friendly staff always
Have had no problems at all with delivery at all sometimes
On a Friday evening it is a tad longer
But it's Friday in the city
Great place great service great food
A Classic, Greek/Italian Family Restaurant!. Very happy that I listened to my wife and ignored the reviews. This is a classic, neighborhood Family Greek restaurant. The service was swift and friendly. We had menus within 2 minutes of sitting down, and my glass of Retsina was never empty for more than a minute or two. The food was prepared quickly and served hot and without any fanfare or pretense. My Souvlaki was properly seasoned and served with all the classic fixings. The Saganaki was good, the Pita was warm and fluffy, and the Ravioli and Spaghetti were served slightly al dente and with a classic meatsauce. NEWSFLASH: This is NOT a place for Foodies, Stuffed Shirts, or people who take themselves too seriously. This is a GREAT, family-friendly, down-home, 70s-style "Greek/Italian" restaurant. If we had a restaurant like this in our neighborhood back home, we would eat there every weekend. Eat, enjoy, and don't expect pretentious nonsense. We will come back here again!
Food is good, service...not so much.. Typical Greek food served up. No complaints with the food but the service could be better.
Pizza!. The pizza here is the best in the city in my opinion. It's on the mid to pricier end, but I consider it justified since they use more toppings than most pizzas I've tried and their crust is also my favourite. I've had a few other items, like BBQ chicken and ribs and some pastas which were good, but the pizza is my favourite.
The place does get busy in the evening so sometimes you're waiting for a while, but the food makes up for it.
Liked the food but not the service.. We were very impressed by the food there. It was really yummy and tasty, did not order pizza or pasta though. The decor is nice but we felt a bit cramped as the tables, chairs seem so close to each other but it does bring a more European touch. The service was effective but the servers' attitude were poor, not the friendliest restaurant.
At first i thought it was weird that a greek restaurant would have pasta and pizza, but the restaurant was awesome! Ambiance was very pleasant, owners and waiters were good, and the food was outstanding! The calamari was melt in your mouth and the spaghetti was very homemade, all the food overall was very good with a homemade feel to it, portions are very good for the price! I would highly recommend it
Nice service and the food was great. Was exactly what we were looking for!
Calamari is superb (as you can see). It’s so tender. Pizza is amazing and the crust is super crunchy. Layers of flavour is top-notch. But I find the roast lamb lacking. Greek salad is not dressed properly, lamb is a tad dry and they don’t have moussaka just like stepho’s considering it’s pricier. overall experience is great!
Good food, nice staff
We asked the waiter about their popular food and he suggested pizza and one of the grilled chicken. The pizza was very delicious and different from any other pizza that you have everywhere else. You have more than 25 choices of pizza. The grilled chicken comes with rice, Greek salad, potato and pita bread. Everything was good but the chicken was on the dry side and it could be marinated better. If I visit again I will have the pizza again for sure.
The waiter was very helpful and polite.
Really good greek food! Loved everything we ordered. The service was amazing as well. I will definitely be back. Also, such a cute place with Greece vibe
We had a lovely meal here the best we had in our trip so we will be back.
The roasted lamb was generous and delicious
Jug of beer for $15 also great deal it was nice to get reasonably priced meal that was also outstanding food.
Nice patio on street
Great service
I cannot say enough good things about Olympia pizza. The staff is always really friendly. They make good pizza but I like the baked tortellini with meat sauce. I eat in if with someone else but if its just me I get it to go and scarf it down in the privacy of my own place. Dinner doesn't last long. Some garlic bread to get the rest of the meat sauce. Then it's time to undo the top button on your pants cause there feeling tight
My friend and I were walking around there one night and were trying to find a restaurant with a patio. Turns out many restaurants on Denman and Robson still weren't opening theirs and we got annoyed until we came across this restaurant. We asked for a patio and got one with the heater right above us, which kept us very warm! The food we ordered was quite good and nicely portioned for the price. I'll definitely come back here in the near future!
The West End's timeless classic. Arguably the city's best pizza. Good service. Modestly priced. Vancouver casual. One of the most consistent long running establishments in the neighbourhood. Their Moussaka is my personal favourite. Enjoy!
My friend and I just came across this place and decided to try it, totally happy that we did! The lamb was honestly one of the best things I've had in a while, and the price is totally reasonable for what you get. We got takeout and I was super impressed cause I usually don't have high expectations for takeout. Will be back again
