“This diner's service is always great. I think there is so much to choose from it can be intimidating. When it was time to pay the check, I noticed their new pay system had already added a 15% tip to the bill. I think tipping should ALWAYS be the discretion of the patron. Because my server was great, I didn't have a problem paying the 15%. I wonder if her tip is shared. FYI, you can change the tip amount at the register, but ya'll need to pay attention.Food at this diner is always yummy. The staff is great and at my visit they were on top of everything. There is someone ready to clear your plate if you're done. Our server was attentive. Making sure if we needed anything else during our meal.Kid-friendliness: They have paper placemats for kids to doodle while waiting for their meal.“

“Olgas place is a land mark in the Elizabeth Port. To know Olga's is to know Elizabeth. Tucked away on a quiet one way street. Just on the other side of where the Turnpike divides the Frog Hollow Section of Elizabeth from the rest of the city.Olga has been one of the best places to enjoy. Recently remodeled and updated. This family owned an operated Restaurant/ Bar.Has been serving the best ?? Costa Rican Cusine for over 20 years. The menu is full of all sorts of great dishes. From a surf and turf to a Chifrijo. One of my personal favorites.White Rice covered in black beans with small pieces of Chicharon mixed in.( fried pork bits) topped with pico de gallo and sliced avocado. A hardy meal. My go to after a long day and an empty stomach.The prices are really reasonable.If you are just looking to have a good time and catch up with some friends.Olga's Place is that place. Where the music is playing just loud enough to make you dance in your seat. But not so loud where you can't enjoy the conversation with your date.You can sit at the bar or dinning room. TVs align the walls. You can catch the latest sporting event. Don't see the game you are looking for. Ask one of the friendly managers. They will be happy to look for it and put it on for you.Talking about the bar. They serve the latest and trendiest drinks. The bar tenders and wait staff are on point. Everyone is super friendly and go out of thier way to make you feel at home.The place is really busy on the weekends. As it has it share of local regulars and people who come from all over the state.There is plenty of parking on both sides of the building.If you know me and follow my post and reviews. You know I really enjoy my Cappuccinos. Ximena is one of the servers and makes it perfect every time. Ask for her to make your Cappuccino.You won't be disappointed.They have something going on every day of the week. Karaoke,Salsa Night and even a game night. You can enjoy singing along with the staff. They seem to know all the songs. Claudia will entertain you with her singing. Karla will charm you with her great smile and personality. You won't ever have to wait long. For your food or drink. I enjoy Thursday Nights when Kelly and Hariana are working. They make sure my order is right everytime.Olga's Place is trendy,hip yet they maintain a great family atmosphere.I just can't say enough about this place.I dont offer 5 stars often but this place is really that good. Follow them on Instagram and Facebook to stay connected with what's going on.I have quickly become a regular. I bet you might to. #ElizabethStrongParking: The Building has off street parking on both sides. On th weekends you mayhave to find parking on the streets.Kid-friendliness: Olga's has a family atmosphere and is kid friendly. On any given day. You will see families enjoying and eating at Olga's Place.“

I’ve had gyros all over the state. But this place was the best. Marinated steak over lettuce and tomatoes with the sauce drizzled over top. More than enough food for the price. Highly recommend and I will return whenever I’m in the area.“

“I've passed by the restaurant a couple of times and never thought much of it but I heard they sold pupusas and so I went in. My father was born and raised in El Salvador and is very picky when he eats pupusas because he knows what they originally taste back home. I bought 6 pupusas, four with chicharron and cheese and two with chicharron, cheese, and frijoles. They were absolutely delicious, I made my father try them to see what he thought of them and he said that they were the best pupusas he's had and they were the closest to what they taste like back in El Salvador. They were amazing and about $2 each. The restaurant itself is small and has tables and is set up normally, the staff doesn't look like they're having fun but they're friendly. overall I loved the food, if you're looking for good pupusas, buy them here.“

When you walk in it's a decent size restaurant seems family owned the waitress was very nice, it felt like your auntie was taking your order. I had the lomo salteado and chicha morada and it was one of the best lomos I ever had. The meat was nice and tender and very flavorful definitely recommend. The chicha was also good. They also had an amazing spicy green sauce, I used almost 1/3 of the bottle it was so good.“

“Very good baliadas. But the service could use some improvements. We waited a very long time for someone to take our orders. As we were getting up to leave some came over. We were hungry so we decided to stay. They are very busy with delivery orders and neglect a bid the customer they have sitting there. We also had to wait for food and got our own drinks from the fridge. A customer from the next table got up and order at the counter and them to bring his order to the table. He got his before us. At least it was worth the wait. The baliadas were fenomenal. But next time maybe I will order instead.I went for lunch on Saturday maybe this contributed to us having to wait so long. We spend 10 dollars each. They place is kid friendly. Parking is tricky. You either park on the street or at the municipal parking right next to it. The place is wheelchair accessible. Is right off the sidewalk.“
