" I have been to many Greek restaurants, but Olympia Cafe truly stands out for its authentic flavors! The server recommended the Pastitsio, and it was heavenly! Everything tasted fresh, and my colleagues raved about their gyros. Only issue was the high price; I felt it was slightly overrated, but the food's authenticity made it worthwhile. Definitely worth visiting. " (*Curated Review*)

" We were excited about dining at Olympia Cafe, but had an unfortunate experience. The service was slow, which was disappointing, as we were looking forward to their popular dishes. I ordered the spanakopita, and while it was alright, it didn't live up to the hype. Hopefully, they can address the service issues for future visits. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to dinner here based on friend recommendations. However, the food didn't meet my expectations. I ordered the gyros, and while they tasted alright, the quality was below what I believed it should be given the price. Also, the staff seemed overwhelmed and inattentive. I might give them another try, though, as I did enjoy their baklava! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dinner at Olympia Cafe was decent, but I left feeling unsatisfied. The ambiance is nice but slightly too close for comfort, and my meal, while tasty, was on the pricier side for a small portion. The reviews led me to expect a remarkable dining experience based on authentic recipes, but it didn't quite hit the mark. I may consider another visit in the future, though. " (*Curated Review*)

" We stumbled upon this place while wandering River Street, and it turned out to be a hidden gem! The grilled octopus was exceptionally tender, and the homemade tzatziki left a lasting impression. The service was attentive, although slightly rushed since we went during peak hours. Overall, a delightful dining experience that I would happily repeat. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at Olympia Cafe is absolutely scrumptious! I had the grilled salmon, and it was perfectly cooked – flaky and moist. Though the atmosphere was cozy, I felt like it was a bit cramped during dinner hours. The service was spot on, especially mentioning my allergies. I will definitely return for more of their delectable dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" We decided to dine at Olympia Cafe after hearing mixed reviews. Unfortunately, I must say it didn’t live up to the hype. Although the service was fine, my lemon chicken lacked flavor and felt overcooked. The atmosphere was nice, but with a high price tag, I expected much more. I’m not sure if I would return based on this experience. " (*Curated Review*)
