Griechisches Restaurant Olympia Mannheim in Mannheim

I'm a frequent customer at the Olympia Restaurant, and because we've always enjoyed the food, we went there this year with our family (10 people) for Christmas dinner. We ordered a generous portion: 5 Athenian platters, 1 Athenian skewer, 2 children's plates with schnitzel and fries, and 1 garlic skewer, which unfortunately contained a hair. We immediately informed the waitress, who had long hair and was very slim, and explained that my brother had just pulled the hair out of his mouth. It was disheartening that they suggested the hair might have been ours, and the manager, who came over, simply stated that the chef was hairless. However, there are other staff members in the kitchen, such as the kitchen assistant, the sous-chef, and even the waiters and waitresses, from whom a hair could easily fall into the food. I'm disappointed that the situation wasn't resolved in our favor. We would have been pleased if, for example, they had said they were sorry, or if we had received a replacement plate, a price reduction, or even a complimentary gift as compensation. Let's be honest, nobody likes finding a hair on their plate, and certainly not in their mouth. A few days earlier, I was at a Christmas market and ordered a steamed dumpling with vanilla sauce, and two hairs fell onto the rim. Before I could even say anything, the saleswoman completely remade the plate for me. That's exactly how it should be, and nothing less.

Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, portions always too large (doggy bag)

Looking for good value for money, good food and atmosphere.

Very good food and friendly service

A typical Greek restaurant with a delicious selection of meat, fish, and vegetarian dishes. Large dining room with plenty of seating. The atmosphere is very cozy and quiet. Fast, attentive staff.

There's nothing to complain about. This restaurant can be recommended without hesitation.

Excellent restaurant, great atmosphere, good service, highly recommended.

It's okay to try it once, but it's not a must. The appetizers and dishes with meat skewers were all very tasty. However, the pan-fried gyros didn't go well with the other dishes; it tasted like it came from a can. Any criticism of this was met with ridicule. This is a sure way to lose customers, but I suppose there are plenty of other options. 😉

Best Greek restaurant in the area! We came spontaneously, it was full, and luckily we still got a table.

Highly recommended, super friendly staff, the food is very good (I recommend the lamb), we always love coming back here. Very family-run atmosphere.

We are very satisfied with everything. The staff is very friendly. We feel very comfortable here and would recommend the restaurant to friends. Keep up the good work.

Great atmosphere, fantastic food, and excellent quality. I've been going to Olympia for decades (even at its previous location on Rhenaniastrasse). The quality is consistently excellent, and the food is prepared quickly and reliably. Plus, they always offer a complimentary ouzo and a small dessert at the end. I'll definitely be back.

We've been going to Restaurant Olympia regularly for a long time and always feel completely at ease there. The ambiance is very pleasant – nicely decorated, not too cluttered, and in the summer you can sit outside. The music is also pleasantly unobtrusive, so you can easily have a conversation. We especially appreciate that you can even see into the kitchen – it inspires confidence and shows how fresh everything is prepared. Our go-to appetizer is always the grilled pepperoni, followed by a meat dish like bifteki or the Cretan platter. Everything is always fresh, beautifully presented, and simply delicious – you'll eat with a big appetite! To finish, they offer a complimentary Greek yogurt with honey and an ouzo – a lovely gesture that we always appreciate. The staff is incredibly friendly – ​​both the owner and his wife, as well as all the employees. You can tell that they work with heart. The parking situation is also excellent: there are plenty of parking spaces right in front of the restaurant. A little tip: Be sure to make a reservation in advance! Olympia is very popular, especially on weekends, but also during the week. They even occasionally have great coupons (e.g., 20% off), which is a nice bonus. We definitely always enjoy coming back – for us, it's one of the best Greek restaurants around! 💙🇬🇷

Great restaurant, and the food is excellent too. I highly recommend it. The staff is also very friendly.

The food was very good. Everyone enjoyed it. We'd love to come back.

I haven't eaten at this level in ages. As a vegetarian, I couldn't be happier. The grilled feta cheese, the garlic bread, and the mushrooms were outstanding! The Aperol Spritz was potent. The service was equally excellent, super friendly, and even the children felt very comfortable.

Good service, pleasant atmosphere. The menu is very well-balanced. There is nothing to complain about in terms of quality or quantity regarding the food and drinks. Reasonable price-performance ratio. Ample parking available.

It's actually a really good restaurant. Good food and professional service. But the prices have now reached a level I'm no longer willing to pay. It's a shame.

Top-notch! From the ambiance to the service to the food, everything was perfect. We'd love to go back!

Food is a matter of taste. Service was quite good.

The restaurant is recommended; the staff is very customer-friendly; guests are greeted politely and shown to their table.

Very good cuisine and nice atmosphere!

Simply TOP!!, best Greek restaurant in Mannheim

It was busy, and we didn't have a reservation, but we still managed to get a table. The food was served quickly, and everything was perfect. Superbly organized and welcoming.

I'll be happy to come back again ☺️

The world's best restaurant in the area. The food is top-notch, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Beautiful outdoor area in the summer, with a fantastic atmosphere. We'd happily return.

A bit noisy, but great food (flavorful and large portions), great service...

Delicious food, great service, I recommend it 👍🏻

Everything is great We're from Fulda and we were there with my children. We were very impressed with the food and atmosphere, as well as the chef and staff. They were very attentive. We would recommend it and come again.

Unfortunately, I have to correct my 5-star review from a few years ago. The service has deteriorated. The ground beef was too salty. The sauce tasted a bit like pre-made ketchup from a bucket. The wine was sour. The prices were very high for the quality and the mediocre ambiance. I can't understand the current, very good reviews.

Visiting family members The food was delicious, and the portions were so large that I could barely finish it all. The staff was also very friendly. We would definitely love to come back.

We've eaten there at least 10 times in the last two years and have never been disappointed! The best Greek restaurant in the Rhine-Neckar region, highly recommended.

As a couple, we go there often and have always been satisfied. Unfortunately, the food today wasn't as well prepared. The fish was completely oversalted, and so was the gyro (which you can't call a gyro because it doesn't taste like one at all. It was kebab meat from a spit, or at least it looked like it, covered in sauce with onions and peppers). The dish was partly raw and had a lot of fat and tendons. I only tried a few spoonfuls and took the rest home (threw them away at home). Unfortunately, gyros is not recommended.

Very nice restaurant with an outdoor seating area. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The food is delicious and served without long waits. The portions are generous, although we couldn't finish them yesterday and had some packed. It was our first time there and definitely won't be our last. Definitely recommended!

Super friendly staff Great food 100% recommended

Good value for money. Nice team.

We come to this restaurant once a month. The quality of the food is consistently good. Unfortunately, the portions get smaller each time, with fewer fries, less salad, and less yogurt...

Very tasty, great atmosphere, and good service. At the end, Greek yogurt and ouzo on the house—a wonderful gesture.

The food was excellent. What was particularly thoughtful was that the three of us shared an appetizer. Without even asking, we were immediately given three plates. As mentioned before, we found that very considerate. The portions are very generous. We each had a main course and were quite satisfied. We've been eating there for years and will continue to do so. 👍👍👍👍👍

...and even 5 stars aren't enough for this magnificent, unique, and irresistible restaurant! My husband and I eat there at least 2-3 times a month and are speechless every time at how damn good it tastes! EVERYTHING there is simply perfect! I love everything about this restaurant, from the outside area to the staff to the food, everything is top-notch! I wholeheartedly recommend eating there; you won't regret it, I promise 🤞🏽 You do a fantastic job, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!

Wonderful food, super nice, friendly staff. We love coming back here again and again. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Super delicious, fair prices and portions! Super friendly service!

This is our fourth time eating here and we're thrilled. Both meat eaters and vegetarians will find something to suit their tastes (compared to other Greek restaurants), as there's a very good selection of starters that can be combined to create a main course. It's a bit dark inside, but the outside seating is wonderful, the service is extremely friendly, and parking is available. Everything is top-notch!

A very nice restaurant, very friendly and attentive staff and the food is delicious. We would love to come back.

It's always like a little vacation when you enter the restaurant. Very nice ambiance and delicious food, always happy to return.

Four of us went out to eat and everything was excellent! We will definitely be back! Thank you 👍👍👍

A truly lovely restaurant. Plenty of parking outside, air-conditioned inside, and room for eight people at short notice. Friendly service, beautifully presented food, more than plentiful and very tasty. Absolutely reasonable prices. Definitely a recommendation, and we'd love to come back!

Visited for the first time today. Super friendly staff, incredibly delicious food that was served very quickly. The staff is very attentive and constantly checks on guests in case they need anything else. In summary: Extremely good 👍 we'll definitely be back 😊 highly recommended!

A wonderful evening with a great atmosphere and excellent Greek food!

We had a pleasant evening and would gladly return. Thank you for your hospitality.

Great service at the Olympia Mannheim Rheinau. The food tastes fabulous, just like in Greece. It makes you feel right at home. A huge compliment to Ms. Evmorfili. Best regards

The food is good, but you should be aware that there are no vegetarian options – I find that a real shame these days. Unfortunately, the ambiance didn't impress me either. It's consistently quite dark, which doesn't seem particularly inviting to me.

We always enjoy going there For about 40 years now Back then, the Olympia was somewhere else in Mannheim Rheinau

We ate here with five people. One of us was disabled and in a wheelchair. Therefore, we checked online beforehand to see if the restaurant was wheelchair accessible and chose it based on that. Unfortunately, despite the advertised claim, it wasn't. We had to climb two steps to get to the restroom, which was an obstacle for our wheelchair user, and only with the help of two people. The restroom is not wheelchair accessible at all. Therefore, points deducted!!! Otherwise, the food was good, the portions were large, and the service was okay.

I highly recommend it if you want to go to a restaurant with friendly service and good food. Everything was great.

Super delicious food in a super nice ambience

Everything was simply perfect. And that was without a reservation for 6 people. Highly recommended

The food was excellent, and the value for money was 100% spot on. The portions were really generous. The service was very friendly and the food was really quick. The restaurant looks nice inside and has a relatively large outdoor area, which is nice and very quiet.

The best Greek restaurant around. Delicious food and incredibly friendly service. The atmosphere is sophisticated and harmonious. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed a truly delicious meal. We will definitely be regulars!

I can recommend with a clear conscience

Wonderful restaurant, food and staff

As always, the food was fantastic. The meat was truly tender and delicious, and the service was always attentive and respectful. All in all, simply fantastic!

Yes, I can recommend it. Unfortunately, I've only been there once, but I'll go again soon with my grandson 👍🥰😋

A very chic and cozy restaurant. The food is good and lovingly presented, but every piece of meat tastes of the same spice, and the prices are now too high for me. The service is quick and very friendly.

Very good and delicious...highly recommended. Top 👍

Best Greek restaurant in Mannheim

Absolutely fantastic! I had a steak at Restaurant Olympia and was completely thrilled. The meat was large, incredibly juicy, and cooked to perfection. The preparation was very quick, and the price was more than fair for this quality. Highly recommended – I'll definitely be back!

Plenty of good food, friendly staff – always worth a visit.

Highly recommended, we think it's the best Greek restaurant in the area.

The staff is extremely friendly and attentive, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. The menu offers a wide selection of Greek dishes prepared with fresh ingredients. I can highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for delicious Greek cuisine in a great atmosphere.

Cold potatoes and bad tzatziki. Otherwise, absolutely fantastic. I'll come again. Second chance :)

I'm from Ludwigshafen and I have to say that the food tasted very, very good and I give it a top mark (1+). The service was very good, also a top mark (1+) from me.

A really great place - I'd love to come back again!

My favorite Greek restaurant in Mannheim for decades.

The best Greek restaurant I know! 1. We had a 2-year-old with us on Easter Monday, so we were thrilled that the food was delivered so quickly! That made the whole experience so pleasant 😊👍 2. Super friendly staff, drinks and service always available 3. Very delicious food! Nothing to complain about Thank you for preparing the food so quickly 🙏 We're already regulars 😂👍

Although the restaurant was full, we didn't have to wait. The staff is professional and friendly. The atmosphere is pleasant, quiet, and cozy. The food is excellent; I recommend the rump steak with mushrooms. Perfect. Absolutely delicious.

The portions were way too large. Luckily, you can take it with you.

Highly recommended. The food is delicious. The only issue was the drinks: Our drink order was taken, but all the drinks (except mine) arrived after a bit of a wait. After 25 minutes, I asked if I could get my drink, and then it took another 15 minutes. After paying, we were asked for a "Verdauerle" (a drink to soothe the stomach). Of the 8 ouzos and 2 Williams, only 7 ouzos and 2 Williams came. We alerted the waitress that another ouzo was missing. After another 15 minutes had passed, we (10 people) decided to leave.

The food is very tasty and the portions are generous

I was very good at first I can only recommend it

Great food! Great service! We are regular guests & come regularly 😊

Today was my birthday again with 10 people. Celebration was like always wonderful, great food, excellent service and a great Ambiance, our best Greek restaurant with really great staff. Greetings again from our whole family.

We have always enjoyed coming to the Olympia for years. Friendly service, flexibility in scheduling appointments, generous portions and, above all, delicious food!

Food is tasty and good. Ambiance is nice, it looks better from the inside than from the outside. When it's full, the service reaches its limits and it takes a long time. But everyone was very friendly. Unfortunately there are no fries with the dishes, just fried potato slices. Not tragic, these are delicious, but you should adapt the menu accordingly.

Great location, very modern, you receive a warm welcome, very friendly service and, above all, great food...👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Toilets are also very clean.

A very pleasant atmosphere. Very tasty food, large portions, very friendly staff, I felt very comfortable. This restaurant including the kitchen is highly recommended TOP

In my opinion one of the best Greeks in the area. The food is always very good. The service was excellent and the team worked well together. No long waiting times after ordering.

Modernly furnished restaurant. Lots of space in a pleasant atmosphere. We got our food very quickly and it was good too. Service staff friendly and attentive.

Longa the feta cheese sauce was the banger. The starter salad was great. The dressing was lit. Dignity! For real if not broke.

The Olympics can do more than one might think from the outside. Food, service and ambience are very good 👍. In the warmer months you can also sit outside.

Yes, highly recommended, everything is great

Food very tasty, atmosphere pleasant, service attentive and friendly, enough parking spaces, prices fair. The only thing missing is the Metaxa sauce.

Great restaurant with a very friendly service staff and great ambience! Nicely decorated with super tasty food and large portions! We would love to come back! Highly recommended!!!

The food is 10/10 mega delicious, top service, really recommended.

Top very tasty always good very friendly best Greek. Lg

Very nice staff. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and the food (rump steak) is good to eat

We always like coming here, really warm family and lovingly designed restaurant. Food is extremely tasty and to the point, the service is accordingly! :-)

Best Greek restaurant I know. Super friendly service, very good, tasty food. Very clean and stylish. The service's clothing style was great, always a pleasure to eat there. Highly recommended!

The service and the food are simply outstanding. Top

This restaurant is highly recommended for me and would be happy to come again. Thank you for the lovely evening.
