We go here fairly often, and the food is always good, and a fair value for the meal you receive. However on 2÷21÷2016, after what I witnessed and heard, I doubt I will go back. The waitress, was there, just a person to wait on us. No big smile, or pleasantries, and she seemed to be in a poor mood, which I shortly discovered why. We ordered food, I got a very tasty chicken sandwich on a croissant, and my lady got a huge chicken wrap. Mine came with soup(Chicken noodle which was very tasty as well) and steak fries. The meal came in good time, and was as I said very good. The food quality is the only thing save this from a 1 star. While we were eating I was observing the owner. He was in the crappiest mood and was acting like a total douche bag to pretty much everyone he came across. His interaction with his patrons was poor at best, and with his staff, I’m surprised he has any at all. He started yelling at one of the waitress’s in front of his customers, some of whom were sitting at the breakfast bar eating their lunches. I felt embarrassed for the woman and later found out from the woman who waited on us, is his usual treatment of his staff in general. To the owner… If you should read this… You need to treat your staff better, its a direct reflection on you, and your restaurant. Buy treating them poorly, they in turn will treat your patrons poorly. Step up man, it doesn’t cost you a penny to be a good person!

Hubby and I went there a year ago for breakfast. He ordered some kind of traditional bacon and egg plate and said it was«fine.» I had a fruit cup. It was old and moldy and had obviously was prepared and put in the fridge some time ago. The waitress was very nice and took it off the tab but I was too grossed out to order anything else. A year later, with a hankering for comfort food and an attitude of second chances, we went there for dinner last night. Hubby had a cup of chili(«very good») and a traditional club sandwich with sweet potato fries(«it was«okay» and he «might order it again»). I had traditional spaghetti with marinara sauce and a cup of minestrone. The minestrone, while unlike any other minestrone I’ve had, was very good. But when the pasta came out it was super wet. Like, at least a half cup of pasta water on the plate under the food and diluting the already thin sauce. I hated to do it, but I had to send it back. I couldn’t look at it. Again, the waitress was nice about it. I ordered something else, which was fine(and the mashed potatoes were excellent). But that’s 2 for 2. I think we’re done. Too bad, as the place seems to have quite a following so I feel like I am missing something or maybe was just there on two off days… At least the staff didn’t make me feel bad for sending things back. I seriously hate to do that.

I was going to order the regular gyro pita sandwich but decided to order the dinner. The menu doesn’t mention that it’s not going to be a pita sandwich, so that is what I thought I was getting. It wasn’t. It was just 4 little pita squares with a tiny bit of taziki sauce some beef/lamb strip and grilled onions and peppers scattered on my plate. The rice pilaf hardly had any taste. When I mentioned this to the waitress this is not what I thought I was getting, as the menu didn’t say it wasn’t a sandwich. She didn’t seem to care that I was not happy with my meal and did nothing for me. The Greek salad was pretty lame. It was not very good. The soup was ok. I didn’t want to complain as we were not going to be there for long, and I just didn’t want to upset the person I was with, so we both vowed not to come back. The person I was with got a meal and said it wasn’t very good either. We won’t be back. The prices for the food are too high and the quality of the food is not that good. If u want a, good diner to go to, go to Ezzy’s down the street on the corner of dewey and Latta road in Greece. They have good food there.

Quality of the food was more than sub-par. It’s possible this place was responsible for the food poisoning both myself and my girlfriend experienced the following day. For a Greek diner their attempt at Greek food was laughable. The spinach pie was atrocious. Avoid this place if you can.

The best Greek food! They have many specials each day. Their food has always been exceptionally terrific. Breakfast is superb. Huge meals. Friendly service. The kind of place where«everyone knows your name». Family owned. The kind of establishment you want to patronize. Far superior food than another«family restaurant«on Long Pond Rd in my opinion.

Not just your usual breakfast fare; unique variations of omelets, french toast, fritatas. Service was excellent.

Been to this place several times now and the food is great, good sized portions and cooked up just right. It’s true on Sunday morning it’s quite packed inside and there usually is a line but it’s worth the short wait.

I come here all the time for a weekend breakfast. I will warn you, you’re probably going to wait… especially for Sunday brunch. So don’t come in all uptight and impatient. The seating area isn’t huge and people come in with giant parties. Not the restaurant’s fault. Okay, on to the rest. Staff is SUPERFRIENDLY, efficient, and attentive. Your coffee will never be empty and they have yet to ever screw up an order in the 10+ times I’ve been here. Breakfast is delicious. Home fries are killer and all of the specialty pancakes/French toast are a treat – particularly the banana bread French toast.

Excellent food. Friendly service. I ordered the olympia breakfast. Eggs were cooked perfectly as well as the hash browns. The breakfast sausage they serve is out of this world. No salty little brown weiners here. These are thick luscious well seasoned links. I usually don’t give 5 stars but this diner won’t disappoint.

Love this place too! This place restores my faith in humanity. The servers, bussers, and cashiers are more friendly than some Disney employees. The food and prices are great! The service is quick and spot on. Love coming here after church.

I have now been here a few times and this place never disappoints. From breakfast to lunch to dinner the food is always very good with HUGE portions and extremely reasonable prices. Service is always very good, although at peak times it does get a little slower.(but that happens anywhere) You are always greeted at the door when you come in, and again thanked for your patronage when you leave. The difference here vs. most places is that you can tell they actually mean it. The menu at this place is pretty expansive. In addition to the regular full menu, they have a pretty big daily specials menu posted at the door when you come in. Breakfast is served all day and is very popular. They also have a full array of tasty desserts, although we usually get the it to go because we are so full from the huge portions. In the end you get GREAT home style cooking, in a clean and friendly setting at prices that a whole family can afford.(and enough food for lunch the next day)

I came here on Monday(Labor Day) for breakfast for the first time with some friends. The service was kind of slow but it was pretty busy in there. We had to wait about 15 minutes for a table. I assume the fact that it was a holiday didn’t help, there were a lot of people. When we got seated it took a while to get our coffees and water. The waitress actually forgot my friends water which was a little frustrating because she had important medications she needed to take. The waitress came to take our orders and she was fast and accommodating as another friend wanted smaller portions of a meal she gets there. When our food came the portions were HUGE! I wasn’t expecting that and the food was hot off the grill. I was almost excepting our food to be cold or like warm because it was so packed in there. But it wasn’t at all. I got the banana walnut pancakes and they were amazing. My friend who wanted the smaller portion of her dish was very pleased and said it was the perfect amount of food. Everyone was very happy with their food. Our coffee and waters were never empty. It did take a while to get our bill and we had to go up and ask for it to be brought over. But I chalk it all up to it just being a busy holiday. I’ll defiantly be back again, hopefully it won’t be on a busy holiday!

Arrived at Olympia there was a family of six sitting on the bench, a couple sitting on step and one other couple ahead of us. I signed in. ten minutes latter a bunch a people came, the man who was taking names stopped to step out in front to have a cigarette,(not at all professional, when there are a lot of people standing to get into the restaurant) then he saw folks that he knew as he stepped over to shake hands, then then called the table of six, then the couple who were sitting, this has already been twenty minutes, then the couple who were standing ahead of me left with out being seated, then he calls he friend in, I asked the one waiter and he shook his head, when I approached the rude gentlemen that I was next that these people were not even here when I arrived he called another couple who came after us, and then told me I was rude and he was calling from the list, I told him he did not cross of a few from the list above that they must have been his friends, that six people that he has called were NOT ahead of us. Needless to say we left… went to Chili’s where we were treated kindly and properly.

Good food, won’t disappoint. Clean and service great. Food is out in a timely manner even when busy. Consistently good, hot and portions large, ingredients fresh. The breakfasts are the best in Greece. The daily specials menu is huge and there’s always something for everyone, wide selection and many items are twists on traditional dishes. Weekend breakfast is busy so be prepared to wait for a table.
