"We have been here twice now and while they prepare a reasonably tasty gyro, it has been a 3-star experience for us both times. This is an eat-in or take-out place that serves Greek/Mediterranean fast-food of various kinds including pizzas, soups and salads. In particular we are always on the search for delicious gyros so this is why we have visited Olympus. I grew up eating what I consider to be the best gyros outside of Greece which are in NYC. Olympus makes chicken, pork, lamb or beef gyros with the requisite tzatziki sauce inside a pita. We each ordered a pork gyro. The meat was tender and flavorful but we were disappointed that the sandwich was not warm. It was nicely filled and the pork was flavorful but I think it would have been much more enjoyable had the meat been warm or hot even and then each bite of the cool tzatziki would do what it does best which is to provide a cool, herby, garlicky, delicious contrast. The pita itself could also have easily also been warmed up. Instead it seemed taken as is out of a wrapper. The French fries were cut big and thick and were just okay. This may sound overly picky but the cut of the fries was not right for this plate. I would have preferred a smaller, thinner cut fries. Perhaps if I was at a restaurant serving big cuts of steak these fries would have better fit the bill. These fries were pale and bland and needed salt and pepper to jazz them up. Another minute in the fryer might also have helped. During our first visit, we ordered the gyros with a Greek salad instead of the fries; this was the better choice. Olympus is staffed by extremely friendly staff. You order at the counter and your food is then brought to your table. You bus your own table when you 're done. There are no signs asking you to clear your table; it just seems like the right thing to do. But if cleaning up after yourself at a restaurant is not something you feel you should do, no one is going to stop you from leaving. We have been pleased to see how clean Olympus is kept although that said, I have not used the restroom. I hope it is as up to par as the rest of the place. It is bright and cheery inside and the prices are reasonable. We will definitely return and next time will try something other than the gyro. There are certainly quite a few things to choose from for a quick lunch or dinner. I suspect my rating will go up when trying other items as so many other reviewers have given Olympus 4 and 5 stars...I want to be clear this review is based just on my gyro experiences. I 'll update when I return for something else."

Generous portions. Ordered the pork gyro and salad ... favorite was the greek salad. Baklava for dessert is always a treat.

Spanakopita has to be the best on the South Shore. I highly recommend coming in for some great Greek food. Owner is super friendly

The Avgolemono soup is amazing. I had been sick a few months ago and a friend brought me this soup. I usually only eat my homemade soup but this was so good. I can't tell you how many times I have been back to order it. Denise S View menu

The food here is incredible! Having grown up in a Greek household, I can honestly say that dining here took me back to Greece. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this restaurant! I tried the souvlaki, gyro, and Greek lasagna, all of which were fantastic. I can't wait to return! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the menu items—such a positive experience!
Victoria
The food is fantastic, and the staff are extremely friendly. I ordered takeout for lunch, and I found the prices to be reasonable, around $10 to $20 per person. I would rate the food a solid 5 out of 5 and the service the same. The atmosphere was also pleasant, giving it a 4 out of 5. I highly recommend trying the Moussaka, Greek Salad, and other Greek dishes! View menu

I got a quart of avgolemono soup last night and it was the saddest, wateriest thing ever. It had maybe 2 inches of rice and chicken at the bottom of the tub and no carrots. When a thing calls for only 5 ingredients, it's strange to leave it out. The soup totally lacked that silky taste and instead was chicken water with lemon? The rice was really nice, what there was of it. It was a bummer but hopefully just an off day!

Excellent Greek style food in a fast casual environment, this place is located next to the Cohasset commuter rail. There is plenty of parking in the strip mall complex. It offers seating both inside outside. The service is friendly and prompt. I highly recommend the lamb wrap $11.76 w/tax , and beef wrap $11.76 w/tax . The pork gyro $11.76 w/tax is good, but super salty. It offers Greek food specials Mondays-Fridays so don't miss out! Bathrooms are available in a hallway behind the restaurant space. It shares the bathrooms with the other tenants in the same complex.
