What a suprise

by robertlugg

I arrived in Buffalo late and was looking for some late-night food. I was about to go to Denny's across the street, but glad I didn't. The Olympic Restaurant is a winner. It has "American" food, but also a fair selection of Greek. It's certainly casual and has a "diner" feel, but is clean with a nice staff.

• Pros: Nice service and food

A restaurant as close to perfection as it gets

Walking in to the Olympic restaurant by the airport, one cannot complament this place enough about the cleanliness, the service and the food. Everything is above par. The ownership should be commended.

good food, questionable entertainment

by baklavalover

My visit was to the Olympic on Genesee Street, near the airport. The service was great, the food was better, but the whole visit left a very foul taste in my mouth. Something was going horribly wrong that day, because the owner was storming around and blustering at the help. You could hear him screaming in the kitchen. I was reminded of the 'Napoleon' character from Saturday morning B. Bunny cartoons. He was blurting out personal comments and verbally assaulting the servers. If you enjoy that kind of sideshow, I recommend a weekend morning -- maybe complain about something to get the ball rolling... Personally, the whole episode turned my stomach and made me feel very sorry for the poor employees.

• Pros: great food, very clean place, large variety on menu
• Cons: troubling atmosphere.
