Greek Cuisine
Greek food is a fine melody of the finest pressed olive oil, fresh fermented bread, colorful vegetables, juicy meat, sea food all cooked in spices and fresh rosemary. The people from Greek were great scholars who aimed to excel in everything they do. The results are quite visible in their food as they are the inventors of olive oil which is beneficial to health. Greeks also made different type of wines from the best quality of grapes fermented in controlled environment.
Today, you can find hundreds of restaurants offering authentic Greek food or popularly termed as Mediterranean cuisine in New York city alone. People wait in line to taste the exotic Greek dishes like saganaki, taramasalata, souvlaki, loukoumades, spanakopita, moussaka, and many more. One thing which most people like about these authentic Greek dishes is abundant use of lemon juice, olive oil, fresh rosemary and sea salt. A smart mix of few ingredients can virtually take you on the pebble streets of beautiful city of Greece.
For those who don't have time to enjoy fine dining should try tasting the famous souvlaki with pita which is type of meat dish, also a trademark Greek fast food. For those who are vegetarian, or vegan can try different versions of Greek Salad. So, if you wish to enjoy a hearty yet healthy meal that tastes divine then try dining at the best Greek restaurant in your city. Greek cuisine not only tastes good but also help maintain your body in a natural way through healthy diet.

Another independent small eatery. I have only had the omlets & they were always fair, with a good amount of ingredients. Many smaller establishments make dry, scrambled omlets, not true here you get far more than you pay for. Whatever your breakfast or lunch preferences, I am sure you will be pleased with them at the ympic Cafe. It has been in business for many years & the staff reflects customer satisfaction. A great independent to try for breakfast or lunch. What's a girl to do? Yup, gotta love those independents that keep you coming back for more!

Small cafe-restaurant inconspicuously located across the street from the airport off W Hillsborough. You can easily miss it if you're not looking for it. I'm a big fan of brunch because I'm not an early riser yet still love breakfast. I can eat it anytime of the day! Today I was heading to Nicki's but saw this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. Overall opinion: pretty good. Speaking solely on the breakfast menu, here is why you should give this place a try: a) big fluffy pancakes - if you can finish two of them then you must be really hungry b) nice sized sausage patties c) very reasonably prized including the à la carte items d) nice casual atmosphere with quick + good service As Michelle said in an earlier review, it's a "solid place to eat if you happen to be in West Tampa." The tables have glass countertops and the menus are placed underneath so you have easily see them. Oh, and they offer free Wi-Fi as as well, which is a nice added plus that many businesses do not think about :-)

This is a solid place to eat if you happen to be in West Tampa and need a quick lunch. You seat yourself, and the menus are the placemats. The waitress was prompt to take my drink order, and she was fast and attentive the whole rest of the time. I had the avgolemeno soup, and it was okay. I think it had a little too much oregano. But it was creamy and lemony, so I can't complain too much. Then I had the hot pastrami sandwich on toasted rye. Heavenly. Honestly, it was as good as I've had in Florida. I'm happy that I've found a place in Tampa for my pastrami fix.

Let's get this out of the way real quick. Had lunch with wife. This is possibly the worst meal we've ever had. How does this place stay open? It started out bad.- 2 Diet cokes please. Sorry out of Diet Coke. O kkkkkkkk. 2 Unsweetened tea. ----Ice water, no taste tea. Order Please, wife orders a corned beef sandwich, Sorry, out of corned beef. We should have left right then. Wife settled for a Greek salad, $6.25 and I ordered the beef teriyaki lunch special, $6.75. Out comes the food. Mine first. Beef teriyaki is a bowl of cooked rice in some kind of sauce with bits and pieces of dried up steak sprinkled on top, with some chopped green onion. This was not teriyaki in any way, shape or form. It tasted like it was sprinkled in vinegar. Greek salad was swimming in oil, vinegar and water. Just 2 horrible messes. Olympic was recommended to me by co-worker friends , I'm rethinking who's opinions I value after this.

Amazing food. Try the Dona Omelette and if you are lucky the Bananas Foster French Toast is on the daily specials. Great portions. Great find! Highly recommended!

Been coming here for breakfast lately. Getting their veggie omelet with cheese, comes with hash or grits and wheat/white toast or biscuit (I think there might be an extra charge on this). I usually can't finish the whole thing in one sitting, I end up eating it throughout the day. So order that and large sweet tea I usually end up having breakfast and lunch.

The Olympic Café is a great little diner located along Hillsborough Avenue, just east of the Veteran's Expressway, and in between Anderson Road and Hoover Boulevard. This breakfast and lunch spot is located on the end of a small strip mal, directly across the road from the Tampa Airport runways. The café specializes in traditional American diner food with Greek specialties which is a favorite of mine. The breakfast menu offers a variety of breakfast sandwiches, omelets, standard breakfast plates with eggs, pancakes, French toast, and breakfast meats. There's also a section of the breakfast menu called Odds & Ends which has bagels, Cuban toast, grits, home fries, corned beef hash, and oatmeal. Most everything on the breakfast menu is well under $7 which makes for a very affordable eye-opener meal. For lunch you can choose from a mix of cold deli sandwiches, Spanish pork with rice & beans, homemade soups and salads, grilled cheese, Cubans, cheese steaks, burgers, gyros, and seafood baskets. For sides they have yellow rice & black beans, French fries, potato salad, and so on. I was there for lunch on the weekend following some shopping next door at Furniture Distribution Center. Howie and Victoria from FDC had just eaten there for breakfast, and they were raving about the size of the blueberry pancakes. I walked the few steps to the front door of the Olympic Café and stepped into a very clean and cheery little eatery. There was one lady working in the dining room, and a second back in the kitchen. The menus were printed on placemats which were covered by a sheet of glass on top of the table. Lunch was a cup of very tasty Greek Lemon Chicken Avgolemono soup, followed by a gyro with a side of fries. The soup was homemade and quite flavorful. The gyro meat was hot and freshly sliced, and the pita was stuffed with slices of tomatoes, onions, dill pickles (that was a first!), and finished with a generous shot of homemade tzatziki sauce. The fries were fresh out of the fryer which is always a great sign. Good food, big portions, and a fair price. Add this to your must visit list if you're in the area.

I came here at 7am to get my brekkie before picking up my car at the nearby shop. The service was quite friendly and my eggs and bacon were made properly. The price ($4.25) was incredibly low so I have no complaints at all. Add in free WiFi and I just might eat here every morning if my car continues to provide repeated epic fails. You might say it is hard to mess up eggs and bacon but they did it right! Thanks!

We decided to give breakfast a try based on the positive reviews. I ordered my egg over medium and it was barely over easy. Husband's pancake was not fully cooked through; center was uncooked pancake batter. Maybe the cook was having an off day. The coffee was good.

Excellent combo of a classic diner and Greek restaurant. The blackening mix here (available on fish, chicken, etc) is a little different than most places in the best possible way! Friendly and courteous staff, a regular stop in our lunch rotation since we found it.

I visit the location because it's close to my job and the wait staff is nice. They offer breakfast and lunch items -- Greek and American food.
