This is the best Greek restr. ever. Have you tried the Gyro pizza? I love the Gyro but can't get past the pizza! And love Eva too. Such a sweet host and keeps all her recipes top secret. I have to go out of my way to get here and it's well worth it.
We are so fond of Eva and Angelo, of Michelle and the other staff at the Olympia. And we love their food and their friendly service. They are extraordinary.
We live in Spokane, so the Olympia is a destination restaurant for us, the only restaurant in Couer d'Alene that we'll make the drive just to visit.
I recommend Spanakopita with a bowl of Avgolemono soup. I call it "Wayne's combo". You wouldn't go far wrong asking for a skewer of lamb medium rare to go with it.
This is a hidden gem in Coeur d' Alene. The chicken lemon orzo soup is TO DIE FOR. And they have the best hummus in town served with a warm fresh pita. I can't get enough!
Had lunch there today, charming family owned place and loved the food. The chicken is out of this world. Masterfully done.
We love this downtown place. Food & service are spot on & the owners are very friendly. We are locals so we go there quite often & have never been disappointed!
The BEST gyros in town!!! The Olympia is a definite must try! Highly recommend!!

Visited after another restaurant downtown turned us away rather rudely. From moment we walked in were given wonderful service. Hostess was friendly and our waitress was an absolute darling (she always is). Food was delicious, arrived quickly. My extremely picky son decided next time he is s getting the gyro as it was much tastier than his kid's grilled cheese. Mom win!
I have grown up eating food from his family. Not only is the food superb, but the owners and their staff are truly caring, kind people.
Run by some friendly, hard working, good cooking Greeks! I recommend the beet salad and the retsina Spritzers made with Malamatina wine imported from Thessaloniki. Delicious!
We found the best Greek food. Taste like home. The staff is wonderful also.
What a great home spun delight and a fantastic restaurant. The lemon soup is the best. I love the authentic dishes and old world appeal.
A family-friendly restaurant that seems to be popular with the locals. We had lunch twice there during our visit and each time the food was very good for the price. Much better alternative than burgers and fried fish at some of the other local establishments. Service was very good and the location only one block away from Sherman Street and a short walk to the dock. Would highly recommend this restaurant.
This place is awesome! It was recommended to me by a colleague who is Greek and they said this place is the closest to authentic Greek food there is around here. I have never had it before so I thought I would give it a try and I'm so glad I did! If you've never had Greek food, this is the place to go to test it out. Food was amazing, staff was friendly and in the ball with customer service, and for two of us to eat, with an upgrade to a soup bowl it was $40. Go check it out. A+++
I’ll start with the baba ganoush- yum! The eggplant purée was perfectly salted with a pronounced garlic flavor but not overpowering! (Side note, I don’t like eggplant.. but this. I’ll have again and again!)
The gyro took me right back to my favorite Mediterranean restaurant in another state! I had such a craving for the salty gyro meat and tzatziki sauce, and they nailed it! The gyro meat was cut thicker than most restaurants which helps with that pronounced meat flavor! Yummm. I will be back!
This is the best Greek food I've ever had as a dinning out experience. The Gyro is the best of the best as in dining at a restaurant. I come here at least once a month to treat my self. Prices are well worth the food, and I'm not waiting long either no matter how crowded it is for my food. Which you kind of would expect due to the popularity of this place.
Great food and service. Stopped on in for lunch and had the Chicken Gyro. Quick service and the falafel was a great appetizer.
Delicious and authentic hole in the wall Greek restaurant. Great seasoning. Will definitely return!
Always delicious and served with a smile. Regardless how busy/hectic the lunch crowd is, the staff are kind and helpful (from my experience). If you haven't been here yet - do yourself a favor and give it a go! You won't be disappointed.
