The Olympia oyster appetizer or meal (choose grilled option over fried) is dazzling. The chef does not overcook the oysters into chewy blandness as do many others. The Greek salad is crisp and fresh, with plenty of feta. The dressing is self applied from a bottle on the table and it is flavorful without being overly tart. I was disappointed that the salmon burger came as a previously frozen pre-formed round dry patty, like you can buy at Costco. It can't be too hard to chop a three ounce piece off a fresh salmon filet and sautee it. We go to a luncheon diner in a Houston business park that does it just that way, and it is delicious. Olympia also offers turkey and beef burgers that we haven't tried. The gyro platter I ordered came largely chopped instead of sliced off the rotisseried meat, and was a little dry. Although plentiful, I got the feeling it was remnants. Greek TV game shows are playing on silent TV sets. Jewelry is offered for sale at the counter. Pleasant blue and white decor. Attentive service. A new location opening soon at Pier 21. I hope they freshen up the menu. This could be a really good place to eat.

In a world of chain restaurant food, Olympia Grill is a great eating experience. The food is wonderful From Hummus to the Gyro plate or salad - lots of food with great flavor. The owners are gracious and make you welcome. Yummy!

I made reservations here for valentine's day, and the OWNER did everything he could to make this night as horrible as possible. When we arrived my "reserved" table was one in the corner with our neighbors head resting on my table. The over booked the night and had people sitting right next to each other. I asked if they had another table, they showed me a larger table for 5 and I took it. After we ordered our drinks the hostess sat another couple at our table... yes now we were sitting next to another random couple at dinner. This would not have been a big deal, but we weren't really given a choice, the hostess put us on the spot and asked us in a way that we could not say no. 30 minutes later we get our drinks, 15 minutes later we were out the door without ordering. Needless to say we wasted a good hour here. I spoke to the owner on the way out, and he didn't even care. He told me that they overbooked and told me to have a goodnight. No apology.
