Reviews of Olympians Family Restaurant (Restaurant)

Willard Lewallen

Terrible service. Rude waitress. Waited 15 minutes to be served then left the restaurant. These folks act like they are doing one a favor.

Ashley Stearns

The service here was very quick. Our food came out faster than expected. I felt the quality of the food was only ok.

Aaron Kurtz

best beef and family prices

Chester Freedenthal

Overall this is a good restaurant. Good menu variety for lunch and dinner. Weekend breakfast is very good as well. Food is lightly seasoned and portions are large. Good service. Prices reasonable.

Karen Miller

Great food! Something for everyone! The service is friendly and warm. Try the homemade bread pudding. You won't regret it.

Lucas Haas

Arrived for brunch at about noon thirty. We were able to choose the table we wanted to sit at and were greeted right away. I ordered the Greek omlet, which way very good but a little dry. The bottomless coffee was very good. I would consider going back here again.

Tony Braswell

Awesome food and hospitality!

Veggie omelette with feta cheese, hash browns with a side of sausage links Florentine benedict, and hash brown The food is amazing. We got there early but the crowd came in after us. Service was sufficient but it does get abit busy.

Olympians is a Greek/American restaurant that serves breakfast on Saturday and Sunday. The restaurant is clean and well lit. There is seating for small and large parties. The food is fresh, hot and filling. I usually order an omelette with bacon. The platters come with home fries, grits and toast. The coffee is fresh and plentiful. The staff is attentive and friendly. I will be returning regularly.

Went here for lunch with my co workers. Initially weren't seated to a booth for which we requested but when we started to leave they got us the booth we wanted - a little awkward but the food ended being decent.

Alesia Conley

Great restaurant, good food consistently, great service, love the music

Daniel

My go to restaurant. Friendly staff and great food

Jah Bre

Order the Linguini Alfredo with extra Shrimp and a side salad. Everything was served to almost as soon as I ordered it. I was surprised by the size of the shrimp. Much larger than expected. Everything was cooked to perfection and exploding with flavor. The only thing I did not care for was the abundance of sauce. The noodles and and shrimp almost began to swim in it. But otherwise everything was great. Wish I had friends in the area to recommend this place to.

Joe Erne

Thank you for a wonderful warm cozy meal

Jay R Johnson

Great authentic Greek food, reasonable prices

Caterina Littleton

We've been going to this restaurant for years - always get very good Greek food (never ate Italian here.) The quantities are generous and consistent in quality. This restaurant is perfect for families - not fancy but warm atmosphere with friendly staff.

Stacy DeBenedictis

I had a greek salad with chicken. My husband had the meat lovers flat bread. I'm never really excited about salads but the flavor of this salad was delicious and I ate the whole salad in one sitting! My husband's meat lovers flat bread was great as well. I would definitely visit again! And the service was with a smile!

Maria Fox

The food and service is allways good. The price is right, what's not to like.

Julia GUERRA

Food and service.

G Campos

We had the Greek Omelette today. Added spinach for a $1.00, but probably got .10 cents worth, as for Gyro meat, well it was mored like small crumbs that u had to really look to see if any was added. Extremely disappointing, to say the least since I have always loved coming here. I will stick with Mama's Kitchen @ 7601 Fordson Rd, Alexandria, VA 22306 especially for my breakfast options going forward.

Ann Vitari

First time visit to the restaurant. Ordered no salt sweet potato fries and were served as though they were refried, so oily and oil wasn't changed in awhile. Server left the gross fries on my plate while a new order was being made. The second serving were hot (just as I like) and okay. They lacked the sweet potato taste as their famous for.

Julie Halperson

Great food and laid back atmosphere. Great to sit with friends and enjoy the food.

Christopher P

Excellent Greek food. Delicious gyros. I highly recommend this place. Large menu. It's almost always busy, but they have a smooth operation and the food is delivered surprisingly quickly.

JRK JRK

Good neighbor spot, good Greek food

Christopher Cannon

Fast service and the food was tasty all at a reasonable price.

David Costanza

Always good, friendly service, lots of menu variety. Gyros, salads, chicken parmesan are all excellent.

Russ Townsend

Always eat here when in the area. Reminds me of visiting Greece.

Michelle Morgan

Good ethnic food

Heather Webber

To the manager at the lovely "family" restaurant I just took my beautiful family out to eat at, Yes, I noticed you watching our every move from the moment we walked in, to the moment we got up to leave. I noticed as you whispered to the waitress to come ask us "what we wanted", instead of if we were ready yet while we glanced over the menu and balanced our toddler. I noticed you cringing every time she laughed or babbled to her mommy and daddy. I noticed you staring at us throughout our ENTIRE meal, making us too uncomfortable to even eat. I noticed when you walked past and glared at each and every one of my husband and I's tattoos up and down. I know what you were doing, I know you thought "people like us" couldn't possibly afford to eat at your wonderful restaurant, or be responsible for the child we brought along, I know you thought we would skip the bill. I hope you enjoyed being proved wrong as we paid our check, left an honest tip, and smiled at you as we left. I hope next time you'll think before you judge a book by its cover.

Olivia Clements

Some what pricey for food that isn't always super amazing.. avoid pasta, mozzarella stick, and the stuffed challah. Friendly staff but even when it's not busy in here I find myself waiting a very long time just to get my check, which is weird in comparison to how quickly my food comes out. Also breakfast is weekends only which works for me.

Glenn Graziano

Nice mom and pop restuarant. Pleasantly surprised.

DY H

Great food and excellent service! Reasonable prices for portion sizes. Will always come here or the sister location Spartans when I want Greek!

Miss Jensen

Pleasantly surprised with their selection of food. Their omelets were quite chewy and not the most delish, but everything else was on point.

Charlie Mankin

Very pleased with the service. Never had a bad experience.

Crystal McKenzie Incorporated

Great portions. Quick service.

Arelis Villafane

Food is very good almost as good as our favorite NYC diner. Only thing is takes long to get your food, might be just busy weekends

Troy Houston

Best gyro I've ever had.

Glenn Fischer

Love thier sweet chili buffalo wings. This is a great place for good comfort food. They do double fried french fries, which are easily the best fries in northern VA.

M. T.

Great food! Haven't had a bad dish here. Love their Greek salad and the fresh warm pita bread is great

Amanda Thomas

Good, solid breakfast, great service.

Leslie Gill-Brassfield

Very nice staff and good food.

Jennifer Hudson

Food was great, family atmosphere, great service.

Derp Gear

Delicious. Mmm

Jonah Bea-Taylor

Reliably good but never fantastic. The fries and the omelettes at lunch are a good bet!

Gill McCarthy

Pita and saganaki were good. Fries were decent. Greek omelette was cooked until dry, and they left off the feta cheese. It was gross. Gyro meat on the gyro salad was very well done (meaning overly crispy and dry, not nicely cooked). Tzatziki was bland, store bought has more zing. Server was slow, did not remove empty dishes without prompting, could not refill water without prompting. Worst of all, they only have Pepsi products. I will never go back, the greek place in the mall is better (and that is a pretty low bar!)

Wayne Wheeles

Greek salad with chicken is awesome

KAREN AQUILANO

My husband and I went here tonight and we were so disappointed. The quality of the food is not worth what they charge. The service was just horrible. Our waiter never came back to our table after taking our order. My husband's food was dry and flavorless, so unedible. Needless to say, we will not be back.

Bob Mosser

Great food and even better service

MICHAEL ROYFE

Great family restaurant with good food and good service.

Amie Mikell

All I can say is excellent everytime

Nancy Berry

There Greek salad with grilled chicken is AMAZING

Zen

Only had them one time but very tasty! Extremely nice staff. The place had a good amount of people so that was a good sign. Nice dine in area to sit and eat! Would def come back!

Richard Heathcote

Consistently great comfort food served by friendly people. Exceptional value: if you left hungry, it was your own doing.

Lou Burgess

Great food, good prices. Love the variety, always something to please everyone.

I AM Teleshia

Customer service and food is good! I had the gyro sandwich.

William Jaffe

Love the place, especially the Greek salad with chicken

Joanna Lanoue

The food is good. The service is really bad. We went to this restaurant the first time and waited an unusually long time for our food. We watched several customers pick up take out orders while we waited. Since we liked the food, we decided to do takeout in the future. Today we ordered takeout, when we went to pick up our order, not only did we have to wait longer than expected, they were out of 1 item and declared it would take 30 minutes to get another entree item. We opted to simply go with what was ready. On the ride home, we discovered they had failed to include our pizza. We had to send a family member back to get it. We are extremely unimpressed with the customer service and will take our business elsewhere.

Angie Trijo

I love the non chain restaurants! Great food and staff. They're always busy but great service

Tom O'Malley

Cool local restaurant. Wine Wednesdays are great

Mike Lambert

One of my all-time favorite local eateries....has a distinctly Greek bent to the cuisine, but their Italian-themed dishes are equally outstanding. Most reasonably priced, fast and friendly service, and one other thing to keep in mind...if you need catering, DEFINITELY keep Olympians in mind! HIGHLY recommended!

Julia Mechlin

Yum! Family food and amazing baklava!!

Pamela Reid

The food was Awesome as usual.

Mariamelia Zuleta

Love this place and of course the food.

Jef Flanagan

Always good. Has been for years and years. Nice people and always friendly and consistant. Many times that is what I want. THX. I get almost everything they make. Simple chicken salad sandwich is the best cuz it stays simple. Fedachini Alfredo with Grill Chicken is UFB. You try it out if you are in the area.

Bonnie Tarsia

Great food! Service is wonderful even when crowd. Will return soon and often. Have told family and friends about this family restaurant.

Wayne Q

Absolutely deplorable customer service. I have visited this restaurant on many occasions but never again. Ordered from grub hub and due to some type of glitch on their end they lost my order. When the driver to pick up order for delivery arrived instead of calling me (the driver did) they just canceled the order. This was after the order was placed and the grub hub app showed they had the order and it was in the works. I understand that problems happen, what I don’t understand is the restaurant making Zero attempt at trying to solve it. To flat cancel the order with out even attempting to communicate shows a complete disregard to me. Sorry Olympians but you just lost a customer

Matthew Smith

What a wonderful place to celebrate my wife's birthday. The music, the murals, the great choices on the menu, and attentive wait staff was an excellent start to our meal. The food was all delicious and the portions were generous. It is understandable why they would have more than one location.

John Robey

Very fast and efficient service. The Gyro dinners are great and come with generous portions.

Kev Ben

Great service and food

Libanos Girmay

Wide varieties of selection in the menu. Food taste is good. Service was excellent.

Wayne Deck

Love the food here, slowly trying it all.

Jim Downing

Olympians is A GREAT place! Family atmosphere with wonderful Greek-American food that is reasonably priced. We LOVE eating there. Their meats are a high grade - for example, their hamburger steak is delicious; it's my favorite.

Barry Pitkin

Excellent food and wonderful service! Greek salad with chicken souvlaki is our go to default. The Chicken Decker sandwich is delicious and has two chicken breasts on it and bacon!! You will never leave hungry.

P - String

Tasty, good prices.

Clark Kelly

Very family friendly. Our Grandson played with his legos and worked on his buttered spaghetti and glass of milk. All the big kid food was good. I had the chicken souvlaki. The tzatziki was outstanding. I wished the pita bread was a bit fresher... hence 4 stars instead of 5.

Jason Duerstock

Great food and friendly service. Always busy but not too busy. A local favorite of mine.

Andrew Griffiths

GYRO's! They make the soul happy. Then I found out they served breakfast all day! The manager came to the table and chatted with us for a bit. He seemed to really enjoy his customers and passed that on with his overall attitude. Good eats!

Thomas Martin

Always great!

Alexander Lamont

Had to travel from NC to DC to pick up my mother-in-law from the airport. Found the place by pure chance. Loved it. Reminded my of the awesome Greek Diners on Long Island, but better service.

yodit. {judy} gulelat

Good coffee and Good service . Way to go.

Robert Sprackland

Hands down, this Italian man's favourite Italian restaurant anywhere in the NOVA-DC area. Staff is very friendly & courteous, cooks wonderful, & food... mamma mia, it's the best. Their pizzas have no rival in the area, chicken dishes always tender (never rubber), salads generous, & kebabs outstanding. The Greek dishes are wonderful--great taste, but more subtle than more common Greek fare; the flavours ate there, but they don't try to mug you tastebuds. If you don't love this place then you don't like real Italian or Greek food.

Ruben DR

The food was delicious and good portions. Great atmosphere.

Chewayne Harrod

Great place

marissa scutt

The best thing about my "dinner" was the salad. The pasta I had was not that good, the sauce had barely any flavor other then tomato. My server was also very slow, it took her almost 20 minutes to notice that I was done with my meal. I was looking forward to trying this place but I don't believe I will be coming back.

P Pate

Solid comfort food

Stephen Williams

We have eaten lunch here several times. It's Greek/Italian w. a fairly large menu. We've found some things we like: chicken souvlaki, gyros, pastrami, excellent French fries. Service can be a bit slow when busy.

Chris Thacker

Always a friendly place with great food!

Emi Bobo

This is one of my family's favorite restaurants. We have been to it several times and we've never been disappointed. Food is great, not too pricey, yet served fast. And customer service is great. We love the atmosphere inside it.

James Bell

The food was average at I ordered cahloun French toast they used texas toast instead and the omelet ordered was very dry

Charlie T

Awesome food, slightly pricey

Debra Stephens

Great place to get food. Awesome customer service. The room feels warm and the seats are very comfortable. Recommended!

Lisa Yaeger

All around good food and they have a large selection. I really enjoyed the Greek salad.

Kristina Wright

The service was actually really great!!!! However, we got a Togo order and when we got home it was rather disappointing. My husband’s gyro had soo much tzatziki sauce on it he had to scrape all the toppings off. Mine had no tzatziki sauce on it at all so we ended up having to share lettuce just to portion out the sauce a little. But even so the gyros were ok. My daughter had fish and chips (kids meal) the fish was so greasy even after trying to soak some of it up with a paper towel neither of us could eat it. I came here because of all the great reviews. But this was definitely not up to the 4 star rating it has.

Atalie Van Dam

No matter what I have tried from their menu, it has been great! The staff are great! This is a lunch fave!

Crystal Baltimore

The food is good

Tom Tuttle

What a great restaurant. We love the food and the staff is great. Thanks for always delivering and great experience for us time after time.

George Sypsomos

Great authentic Greek fare. Excellent prices. Nice service. Large portions. Probably the second best Greek restaurant (Parthenon in Fredericksburg, more authentic and homey) in Virginia.

Heather Heise-Reeves

Good portions and great food

Farrakh Shah

Great food and friendly environment

Hilda Kroll

The pork chop special posted at the door looked too good to pass up. Although the restaurant was packed, the service was fast and friendly thanks to my server, Janet. A salad, two tasty pork chops with corn and mashed potatoes with gravy for $13 was a bargain. Next time I'll try one of the Greek dishes.

Marcellus Collins

Delicious!

john peterson

I love the gyros and wraps. Plentiful portions, fast friendly service and reasonable prices. The restaurant is clean and there are alot of tables. I eat here whenever I am in the area.

Dee Jackson

Awesome service and the food is amazing. Deserts to die for.

Hope Jackson

Food and service is wonderful.

Mike Nguyen

Good food, good service. Their gyros are excellent.

Russell Wells

Had a good lunch. Quick and reasonably priced. Meatball sub could use a little more sauce.

Wayne Hutchins

Olympians was recommended to me by a friend and they didn't disappoint. Good service and excellent food!

Ztdubz

My wife, daughter and I were given dirty looks and could visibly see the manager staring at us whispering most likely rude things towards us. On multiple occasion he would walk past my wife and I while looking us up and down at our tattoos and make a disgusted look. We will definitely never return to this "family" place.

Gypsy Queen

Great service,premises well maintained! Unfortunately,the pork chops were dry!

Kory Bockman

We eat at Olympian's a lot! The food is always good. We particularly like the Greek salads with grilled chicken on top. The salads are very large, so get the smaller size if it's just for one person. This is a family restaurant, so the people are always very nice and friendly.

DZ Smith

Super friendly! Food is great too! Highly recommend.

David Edens

Great place for Greek food.

Terri Swift

Very bad service. Actually no service at all. We sat and waited waitresses n waiters made eye contact with us but walked past us to help others who came in after us. We ended up leaving after they served the 3rd couple who came in after us.

Shane Thomas

Great family restaurant with excellent food of all kinds. There's a dish for any appetite.

George Boosalis

I eat lunch here on a regular. Great food and service. Family run operation. You can tell they care about quality and service. I would highly recommend.

Kenny Duncan

Great service. Amazing food for price. Almost too much. Breakfasts are great but you need to get chicken souvlaki w Greek potatoes and don't scrimp on their amazing dressing have never had any better anywhere. Never a disappointment stopping here.

William Robinson

Excellent food. Everything I've ordered as been good. Love the pizza. Highly recommend.

Frieda Sts

Olympians offer a great variety of tasty Greek and international food with a wide selection of beer and wine choices. The restaurant has excellent service and has a welcoming atmosphere

Jason Siergey

Good service, friendly staff

I’ve been going here since I was little and loved it ever since
