Enjoyed three evening meals here,all served piping hot,friendly service and lovely atmosphere. Will definately return on our visit in September.
-
Have to agree with you Winkie . Olympia is our favourite , with many very close runners up. The only slight thing against it is the view .If only it could be moved to the Waves or Beachcomber area it would be perfect , always a great welcome and great food.
-
Our favourite restaurant as well. Nothing is to much trouble. Usually eat here at least 3 times during our 2 weeks holiday. Can't wait to be back in resort in 4 weeks time and sampling the great hospitality

I believe cash is king Waspy ;)

Seems to be the case Winkie
-
Just had a wee look on TA, seems to have gone from the list of restaurants :o. Stelios was considering doing other things,hopefully he,s still entertaining us as diners this summer.
-
Even if it had closed old reviews would stay on there. I can't actually remember there being reviews for Olympia on TA - but that's probably just my bad memory

Should anyone wish to call them. They are actually doing some work in the restaurant right now I have been told, so would take it that they will be open this year.
-
Having read a previous post I felt it prudent and also relevant to contact the owners directly. I can confirm Stelios, Vassilis and the family will be open as always at OLYMPIA from May until October once again this summer 2017 and look forward to seeing both regulars and new guests at their restaurant which is open all day from Midday until late evening..........
They are looking forward to seeing everyone again this summer on both the outside decking area and inside the main restaurant.
-
Thank goodness for that. My favourite eaterie
-
So relieved to hear this! Our favourite!
Thanks, Lesley.
-
Great news. Always enjoy eating there.
-
Yes great news. One of our favourites

We had our evening meal at the Olympia last night. It was our first meal there having returned to San Stef for the first time in 25 years. We had intended to just order a main course but the waiter very gently persuaded us to order a starter and dessert. We were pleased he did. The food was excellent and the service was attentive without being intrusive. A very good evening and as we are here for 3 weeks i am sure we will eat there again.
-
Spent another two nights eating dinner here last week,no change in service,ambience and food,absolutely perfect.Our top eaterie in the village,was busy each night we were there,and almost every other night we passed by. Class oozes out of this place,the background music is superb,non intrusive as are some others,be back in June next year definately. Thanks to Stelios,Vassilis and George for your company.
-
We ate there at least 3 times and was as good as ever if not better. Our personal favourite place.
-
Sad to report the passing of George, such a lovely guy, always on hand to help with any queries re menu or wines. Always a big smile or a wave if passing by, will be so difficult to replace, and a huge loss to Stelios and Vasillis and of course Olympia diners. RIP GEORGE. :'( :'( :'(

Goodness me...how sad.... :(
-
Really saddened to hear of George passing away. Always polite and professional, always friendly but never over familiar. Shocked by the news. Condolences to his family and friends and to all at Olympia.
-
Some friends went to eat at Olympia last night and said is was just ok, nothing special. I think we have to try different places and see what suits us. :)
-
Some say the food is lovely but we had a mediocre meal there and never bothered again as there are so many places.

Sounds a bit mean I know but you only have so much time-and money.

It's not mean at all, Maggie. It's nice to spread our spending around, but it's our holiday, so go with what you enjoy :)

Help me with my memory.....we ate here last Sunday, it was lovely, but we thought the front of the building and the outside area at the back was refurbished in recent years since we were here last in 2011. Is our memory playing tricks or has it changed? ???
-
They built a decking area a few years back with sofa chairs and also since the Olympia Villa has been refrurbished a new beautiful stone wall below has been added.......

Yes they have done quite a bit of work on it over the past couple of years,it looks very nice now.

Thank you. It looks brilliant now.

We ate at the Olympia tonight, the first time since 2017. Lyn had Sofrito and i had lamb with spinach and feta. Both meals were beautiful and the service was great. We will definitely go back.

Great restaurant with lovely staff.
-
Chris I guess you did not go out naked and have the meds to survive.... Ha! Hope the cases turned up or you got something sorted, many thanks for the updates....
-
Ha! Right on both counts. I now have a couple of weeks supply of the most important meds, so i am ok on that front. Still no luggage though, last heard of i Dublin. Have bought a couple of shirts, so alternating. Footwear is the hardest. I may be a Kiwi now but i have never got on with jandals!

Great restaurant with lovely staff.
We ate here four times, it is so good, and a fabulous menu. The staff Athina and Louisa are lovely, and of course behind the scene Vasillis and Stelios are always on hand to make you so welcome.
-
Olympia now has a swimming pool to the side
-
Bad news .....we were speaking to a couple that are staying at olympia in the apartments they told us they are not serving food anymore and turning the restaurant into an apartment

Heard about that last year Carl, so sad, it is our favourite place to eat.
-
Is a nice restaurant but there are so many other nice restaurants in SS I don’t think it will be missed too much. Is probably one of the more expensive ones.
Will make that side of the village a bit quieter though which is not good for neighbouring shops/bars etc
-
That really is a shame, loved the food there. We ate twice in the Olympia last June and with just 3 weeks to go was hoping to do the same this year.
-
Mrs J celebrated her 30th Birthday back in the day, they really made her feel special, she wont be happy.
-
So sad to hear about the Olympia most definitely our number one restaurant.

We are here now and the Olympia does still do food but you have to book in advance as limited availability.
-
Oh, so is that limited tables with usual menu? Or limited everything? We dont mind booking in advance if that s the case.

Limited tables but same menu. They just need to know exactly what they are cooking for.
-
That's good to hear, love the menu at the Olympia. No problem booking in advance.
-
Its one of our favourites too-those courgette fries and the potato cakes... ;D
-
Oh yes.
-
Lamb shank for me, Vasillis is a master chef in his kitchen, great funny guy too, our go to place in the village.
-
Have read online, that Vassilis had heart troubles over the close season, and Olympia now offers a much reduced menu to ease his workload in the kitchen, booking is now advised too. Fingers crossed he makes a full recovery, and is able to get back to his kitchen magic very soon.
-
We were just told it was a health issue that was improving. The meal was still amazing when we visited, we both had their mixed grill.
-
Did you have the courgette fries? or, gasp, the potato cakes? if so please describe them to me in loving detail... ;D

Why not both and double lashings...Yummy. ;D
-
Does anyone know if Olympia is still doing meals this year? Can't recall seeing anything this year about it. Its currently on our list at least once whilst we are there (nearly single digit dance time ;D)
-
Yes they're open, doing a slimmed down menu but still excellent food.
When I was there in June with my family Vasilis went to the trouble of making briam for my vegetarian granddaughter and her husband as there wasn't a vegetarian option on the menu.
-
Thats a lovely thing to do for you-I'm pleased they are still open for meals, some of the best food in San Stef!
-
Ate there last week, slimmed down menu, but still a good choice of fabulous food. Busy most nights we were there, it is also open during late morning for lunches, either overlooking the pool area, and inside too, best chef in the village, in my opinion, is Vassilis.
-
It indeedy is open ate there twice 8-15 September. Food as good as always.
