Had my first visit ever there today, after hearing about it for so long. Thier burger was excellent. Fries were great and the chicken strips I tried were really unique and awesome. And they have Orange Crush in the fountain soda jerk!! Also the staff were friendly, efficient and even during the rush, stepped out and took orders on the line, making things faster! Good hustle and care about the customers. Was very impressed by that. Place was clean too! Will definitely be back! read more

Just love the chicken strips and the fried mushrooms. Great food.. It's my favorite go to restaurant

Fast service, great food (coney dogs), good price! I'll be back for sure Picnic tables along the River make it a great place to experience your lunch read more

This is a cool, funky local fast casual lunch diner, where you can eat outside. The food comes out hot and fast. Now, they are not likely to win any Michelin Stars, but they it's an acceptable fast casual lunch place. I got the bacon cheeseburger combo for ~$7 and it was acceptable - fast, hot inexpensive. Don't expect super high quality, but also don't expect an inflated price for a lunch. They have plenty of spots to sit and eat on ~10 picnic tables outside. There are about 10 tables inside as well. You can also park under the overhang and eat in your vehicle. Overall a decent, fast, casual and inexpensive lunch place where you can eat al fresco! read more

Olympic Broil - two hot dogs and french fries on a picnic table - American Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

In the 50 minutes to drive to Lansing's Olympic Broil, two meals seriously enter my brain depending on the time of year. During Lent, you can not pick a better fish lunch then the Olympic Broil. The savory fried fish, fries, slaw, drink is the ultimate during fasting. However, once Lent is over, Olive Burgers!!! Forget condiments, just ask for extra olives and mayo (sauce) on the sandwich with their delicious curly fries and you too get a taste of Heaven. Off the beaten trail, this is a culinary delight within the shadows of this wonderful capital city. Take heed, this is a justly busy place during lunch, I go around 2pm and the food is worth it! Bravo to the cooks! I bet everything on their menu is delicious but I crave olive burgers! Popeye loved Olive, I love her burgers! I won't"wimpy" out! LOL. This is a hidden gem, worth your time, money and hunger cravings. read more

We went last night (12/15/20). It was beyond disheartening to watch not 1 not 2 but 3 employees use unsafe procedures. One didn't even have a mask on and was texting on her phone while near food. The woman taking cards and handing food had on gloves that she never changed in between and also had her mask under her nose. The young lady who bagged the food had her mask under her chin. When I expressed my concern, I was told "sorry" but sorry doesn't stop the spread of Covid. We wanted to support a small business. The next time we do, it won't be them. read more

Oh, Olympic Broil, how much do I love thee? Let me count the ways: I love your shrimp platter. Your fish is amazing. Your onion rings are almost orgasmic And your fried mushrooms marvelous. Your burgers are delicious and filling. I have never disliked anything I've ordered. Your service is quick and efficient. My picky twins enjoy your food more than McD's, And believe it or not your prices are lower. I do not know if it is a blessing or a curse that I work only five minutes away, but I will partake of your yumminess until death do us part. read more

Olympic Broil - Now this is a fish dinner. - American Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

After writing a review (see earlier) about my experience at Olympic Broil, the owner contacted me. Not only did he apologize, he offered us some coupons for free meals. That says a lot about this place and we will give them a second chance .. I am impressed that the owner listened, then personally dropped of the coupons at my place of employ. Kudos for that for sure! Thank you! read more

Good olive burgers but they use a lot of mayo, but good! Clean environment and friendly staff read more

Olympic Broil - Inside area - American Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

See all

Great food, decent price! We were in Lansing visiting Preuss pet store and we wanted to have some lunch, McDonald's was busy and I really don't like much in the way of fast food. I searched my phone's GPS to see fast food in the area and that came up and what didn't have bad ratings. I decided to try it since we were already having a bad day, I thought, what the heck? It was really fast, the people were friendly and the food was great! We will definitely make this our new "fast food joint" when we go to Lansing. It was also pretty quite, there were not too many people in there although it was lunch time on a Saturday and the other fast food places were busy. This is really on par with Culver's or Rally's for fast food...like the kind of fast food that tastes like it was from a diner and they were super quick, I am sure McDonald's would have been MUCH slower. read more

Just a great mom and pop place. Great burger and fries. Service is always quick and friendly. They give generous portions of the fish and shrimp also. Can't go wrong here read more

Yet another nostalgic Lansing joint. Burgers are mediocre, fries the same. Onion rings are the highlight. Unless you grew up eating this you won't be impressed. read more

Not sure what all the hype was about this little fast food place? It's food, nothing to write home about. Cleanliness was probably a 2, floors and tables that is. read more

A great neighborhood place to grab a burger, a gyro, and some delicious onion rings with the family. It's clean too, perhaps the cleanest restaurant in Lansing. read more

Great, quality food in an awesome community. Olympic Broil has their ordering process down to a science, where most orders come out made-to-order in about 5 minutes. The burgers, chicken wraps, and coney dogs all way out match their price in terms of what you get! Definitely worth going out of your way to get here when looking for a cheap tasty lunch. read more

Olympic Broil....hmmm...coney islandish joint... standard coney fare..onion rings, burgers, fries, corn dogs, a bucket of grease on the side..hehe I used to go here for lunch all the time when I worked downtown. My heart could take that crap at age 21, but ai yi yi at the ripe old age of 26 virtual atherosclerosis is setting in, so I shy away from OB unless it's a special occasion. Best place to pick up old diner-type guys. read more

Olympic Broil restaurant is a must-visit for Lansing. It's local fast food, dripping with deliciousness. Everything on their menu lifts me up when I'm having a crappy day. My go-to is the chicken strip combo, or if I'm feeling a little nutty, the olive burger combo. If you live in Lansing, are visiting, or are just driving through, you owe it to yourself to eat here. read more

The food and the service have generally been excellent but there is a gotcha. I ordered a to go order and when they brought the order to the counter they told me what was in the bag but they were wrong. I did not find out they left two items off my order until I got home. Being 15 minutes away I decided to go back the next day only to be told I did not call so they can't do anything about it. Well I can and have done something and it is a shame because I really liked that place. Don't let that happen to you; check your order since you apparently cannot trust them to get it right. read more

Your regular greasy spoon, good food though! Typical of coney-island type food, with burgers, fries, onion rings, hot dogs and even gyros! My personal favorite is the olive burger! Two patties with lettuce, tomato and all that green olive goodness!!! Om nom nom.... Anyways, the crowd sometimes can be a bit odd considering the area of town, but definitely check this place out if your'e in the area of love a good olive burger!! read more

Not a very inviting looking place, but service is fast, even during lunch time. Coneys are made with hotdogs, not right. But, the double olive burger with cheese is very tasty! Get one right away! read more

Olympic Broil - Double olive burger with cheese... Awesomely huge for just over three bucks! - American Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

This place has great food and a home like atmosphere. Everyone who works there is nice and the food is served quick. I love me a humdinger and some chili cheese fries! Can't go wrong! read more

Fast, delicious and greasy - just what you would expect. I haven't had anything that wasn't great; regular cheeseburger and fries are the go to. Affordable and never disappoints. read more

If you are in the mood for something quick, cheap, and familiar Olympic Broil is your place. It's clean and the staff is always welcoming. The food is the nothing spectacular, other than consistent. I've never had a poor quality meal, but nothing is especially great. They hit their mark every time by besting McDonald's efforts, but it is a low bar. It is an honest and basic meal, which is always a welcome treat. read more

First off the onion rings are great. They are big and well cooked. No greasy affair here. The greek side salads are great too with feta and a creamy greek dressing. The downgrade was for the gyros. The pita was steamed and soggy. Such a disappointment. I was really hoping for a great gyro in great pita bread. Still searching. read more

Another absolutely necessary establishment for Lansing! The burgers are amazing and my dog will eat his own foot for their hot dogs. Also the staff is pretty consistent and awesome as well. read more

his place is bright. The food was oh soo yummy! the chicken and the burger! I will be coming back for sure. I didn't realize how close this was to work. ill be back to get dinner. I even love the name of the place!! read more

Being going here since I was little favorite thing on the menu is the coney dog and gyro and their milkshakes

I have been eating here for years it's like a old town drive in good food good service fun place good prices and if you want a burger and fries that remind you of the old days this is your place!! read more

Great old time dinner burger joint! The coney dogs are by far the best I've ever had in LANSING. The chicken strip combos are extremely generous and I haven't had the fish yet but I'm sure it will be just as great. The burgers are exactly what you would expect, just your typical broiled to perfection burger. This is one of my favorite find in Lansing, they are doing great work here. Stop by and check it out, and the prices are great!!!! read more

Who doesn't LOVE Olympic Broil? My only dilemma is deciding what to order....Fish Platter? Olive Burger? Veggie Gyro? Chicken Strips? Don't forget the onion rings and fried mushrooms.... Mmmmmmmm......it's all so good!!! read more

Cheap, greasy, and delicious burgers. Come hungry and leave happy. This place is so great for the price. It reminds you of a pull-up dinner. You will leave with a smile after chowing down on a big burger and fries. read more

Excellent food excellent service. Ordered my usual Double Olive Burger Deluxe and within 2 minutes are ordering had food. Ate in restaurant atmosphere was friendly and food was hot, prepared correctly and excellent as usual. Been eating here for over 27 years since high school every time I come back to Lansing. Recommend everyone try this restaurant. read more

It's an area staple. Crispy crinkle cut fries and an olive burger no lettuce. If your hungry get a double because the patties are thin. The fried mushrooms are good just don't burn your mouth. read more

Great place to eat delicious things that will most certainly kill you in large doses. But it's a tasty death! read more

Best Coney I have found in many years. Great little retro eatery.

This is a great local restaurant to visit and the food is always good! In addition, the prices are low and the service is quick.

There is no place in America like this place. The strips special is my favorite thing to eat when I am home. I have not found anything like them ever. Get the steps special with a mill shake and be happy. read more

Amazing fried food for great prices. Not for those that don't like greasy food.

A north Lansing treasure. House made breading is amazing. Huge portions for a great price. Fans of greasy goodness will be happy.

part two of our tuesday night progressive fried dinner extravaganza was olympic broil. we'd driven past it on the way to the airport numerous times...we knew we had to stop to check it out. with a cheesesteak already down the hatch (see our best steakhouse review), we had to focus our efforts on just one taste. we ordered the chicken tender basket with onion rings. the food was delicious. more tempura-y, had good seasoning (we didnt need salt or ketchup!), and of course--pretty greasy. the chicken seemed to be all white meat...and not disgusting or chewy like a nasty nugget. ob resembled a mcdonalds on the inside. except not even as nice. note to anyone interested in going: they have a policy where you cannot return food 30 minutes after purchasing it. so if you change your mind--do it fast. also--who has ever returned food at a fast-food restaurant? are you effing kidding me? it was good. we will go back. but we dont feel particularly moved to go out of our way to do so in the near future. but definitely worth going to. read more
