Everything was amazing! Food was sooooo good, service was great, they had a tremendous amount of team work watched lots of servers helping each other. JR and Isabel (I think that's her name) took great care of us! Overall great experience we will definitely be back!

Chris was so welcoming and attentive. Top notch food, top notch service, amazing and very cost friendly. Their house salad dressing is the best I've ever had. We got the KritiKos platter split between 2 people and a toddler and still walked away with leftovers. Will definitely make this a must have everytime in the area!!

The food was excellent and our server was great!We'd never been to a Greek restaurant before, however our waitress was very helpful!We ended up getting one of the sample platters in order to try a variety and didn't regret it. The food was great quality, big portions, and well priced.We'll definitely be going back!

First! The staff was amazing! Ultra friendly and very helpful. We ordered the feta, appetizer, and the cheese was delicious, the olives firm, and flavorful.For a meal I got the soft shell crab platter on a bed of rice….. MY GOD! IT WAS AMAZING!!!!! Prepare to eat the red sauce it came with on everything!!!! I’ve been to Greece multiple times and lived in houston my entire life. THIS IS THE PLACE !!!We felt full, but not overly stuffed after eating here! The whole family loved all their dishes including the kids! This is hands down the place to sit and enjoy an amazing meal for everyone.The restaurant and atmosphere was very beautiful, and inviting. It was fast, easy to get to, and our food came out perfect.We will forever come back here every time we come down to Galveston.

If you like Greek food, you MUST visit this place! The service was outstanding! The food was amazing. There was no wait at 8:00 PM on a Saturday night. The hummus and Tzatziki sauce with pita and veggies was INCREDIBLY good! Spanakopita was rich and full of flavor and just the right amount of spinach and cheese. The salmon was fresh and flavorful too. My only regret is not having room to try their desserts! We will be back every time we visit Galveston!!

There are few places that my child can eat due to allergies and preferences. She was able to eat a couple of items that they offered. The food was really good. We will definitely be back.

Oh my goodness! What can I say, this place is AMAZING with both food AND service!Came in with my elderly mother after finishing up some of the Galveston Historic homes tour, and just beat a line of bad storms. We used to come here to this location years ago when it was just called Olympia Grill, and we always knew we could get the best Greek food here, and seeking respite from the storms, we were in need of comfort food. Let me tell you we got EXACTLY what we were seeking, and special shout out to Michelle, our server! This lady's shining personality and infectious laughter was just delightful! She was so fun and lighthearted and truly made our expectations and experience top notch!I am SO GLAD we stopped here for dinner this evening!And to the back of the house, WELL DONE on the gyro meat that was perfectly seasoned, and the baklava is absolutely the BEST I have ever tasted! Not too sweet, not too syrupy, but spot on just right!If you are in Galveston, and looking for some delicious Greek/Mediterranean food, I urge you strongly to give this place a try! Ask for Michelle for your server! You won't regret it!

Our dinner was fantastic and the food tasted great. The only issue was my waitress never came back to check on us or offer a refill of our drink glasses.

It is not fancy but great Greek food and service. Their portions are generous. I love the salad with gyro meat and gyro tacos. I frequently travel to Galveston and it’s my go to!

During Restaurant Week, my wife and I like to order different dishes and share. We had the Greek salad and seafood-packed bouillabaisse soup for starters. Main dishes were shrimp pesto pasta and avocado cilantro haddock. We finished up with strawberry cake and bread pudding. Marvelous lunch for $15/person.
Delicious Greek food. It is usually pretty quiet and not busy, which is nice. Service was good. I enjoyed their avocado haddock. My husband had their burger & said it was cooked well. Our only comment is that both of our meals could have used a little more salt & pepper. My fish was cooked well & delicious. Would love to try their brunch menu bc it sounded delicious! We will definitely be back.

Kritikos Olympia Grill had outstanding food at one time, now not the case. The presentation is appetizing however the dishes are lacking in flavor and proper preparation. In particular the grilled shrimp pita WAS my favorite but not anymore. The shrimp were over cooked and lacked flavor. My husband had the gyro which also was lacking in flavor. Hope the quality improves but I hesitate to return and spend $$$ on so-so food.

Found this little gem on our last night in town! Fresh fish/seafood for my hubby and vegetarian options for me! Tried some new things, and enjoyed it! Exceptional service and clean and comfortable atmosphere. We would come here again if it wasn't 1300 miles from home!Vegetarian options: Several options for vegetarians! Vegetarian moussaka, lentil soup, hummus, etc...

Ate here for dinner last night and it was as good as I remember from 2 years ago. The octopus was FANTASTIC and everyone else thoroughly enjoyed their meal - even our 9 year old!

DELICIOUS. This was definitely authentic Greek food. Very tasty at a reasonable price. Friendly, kind people. It's difficult to find a really good vegetarian meal. But they surpassed our imagination. Totally worth the trip!!
