Below average diner. For a diner with history, it's sad to see an apparent decline. From those I spoke to in the area, there has been a decline and now experiencing it for myself, I'd have to agree that the quality isn't there. While it's a 'diner', there are certainly better out there. Inside is standard enough with seating and design. Some booths have the jukebox and others don't. The menu is varied, deep, and huge. With so many options, I played it safe with the bacon cheeseburger. The burger was average - not terrible, but I've had better. When a place messes that up, it's not a great sign. I was lucky, since others who I went with were less than satisfied with their meals. A table full of different plates, the odds of messing more than half up is telling. Staff were okay, not great but not terrible. They have a hook game in the entrance, so for all those like me that can get addicted to that, you've been warned. Parking is decent. With so many diners out there, you'd expect better but sadly this place is less than average. Perhaps they had better days and perhaps they will again, but as of now it's a place I won't return to. There are better diners out there and while most of them are relatively standard, it becomes obvious when one is below that standard. Shame.

Breakfast menu

When we walked in we were greeted by a strong chemical smell that resembled turpentine. All of my local Mahopac friends tell me that is normal here nowadays.......? We ordered our brunch items which included a waffle with sausage links for my wife and a western omelet w/Swiss cheese for me. The eggs were sloppy and didn't hold together well (nor sure why, this isn't normal for an Omelet. Instead of toast, I asked for a bagel and all they had was plain bagels and these were extremely boring and tasteless and I doubt they were ever boiled, technically making them just rolls with a whole in the middle. The turpentine odor did not dissipate at all while we were here and as we were leaving I think it might have actually gotten stronger Last time I was here (about ten years prior) this place was a great greek dinner - now I don't think I'll ever go back...

Mediterranean salad without: mozzarella, olives, eggs, anchovies, salami

Parking is super easy for this ideally located staple of Putnam County/Mahopac NY area. You can easily view your car from where you chose to dine. Waitstaff Is quite patient and attentive for indecisive customers such as ourselves. Never did we feel rushed to finalize our meals to leave. Food was crisp and fresh having ordered a Mediterranean Salad and a Panini both times share. They didn't charge a sharing fee. Waitstaff wasn't annoyed at our little requests in between ordering(more napkins etc) They truly wanted you be serving their customers! 4 stars because the diner was noticeably cold. We needed to keep our jackets on. It would have been beneficial to order some soup! Will return again as this isn't my first/last visit to Olympic Diner

There's a parking lot. There's a full bar. There's a full menu typical of diners. They're open 24/7. We had breakfast for dinner of bacon egg and cheese on a bagel and eggs with home fries and toast. Everything was fine.

No social distancing :(

The place was clean, food was ok. Bacon was so bad I had to spit it out into a napkin.

My Cousin's - Meatballs appetizer

Cute restaurant with nice ambiance. Not too large, so feels intimate. Staff were attentive and…read morefriendly. Large drink list and great menu options. The lavender basil mocktail was delicious, as was the eggplant bruschetta appetizer. Pasta was tasty and had good spice. Rack of lamb was tender and cooked perfectly. Prices were reasonable too. Would stop by again!

Five stars. One of the few places I have reviewed where I have given a full five-star review…read more Restaurant itself is beautiful. Great lighting, ambiance and bar. Casual but in a fancy way. I'm glad I glowed up for the occasion. Service was phenomenal. Can't say enough. From the hostess (her first day-nice job!!) to our server, bartender and busser. Owner came over a few times to chat. Food. Omg just look at the pics. Delicious. Everything was cooked perfectly, lamb was a tad overcooked but that was my friends' bad for asking for it medium. My salmon--perfection. I like my salmon on the medium-rare side wowsa. Loves every bite (and I do mean every bite 'cause I ate it all). Did I mention the creamed spinach? Best I have ever had. Anywhere. A smidge salty but still had to order a separate side of it as my friend was not sharing hers I nearly forgot the candied bacon. Enough said. Because it was, you guessed it, amazing. Hats off to the chef!! Drinks-my tolerance for a poorly made margarita is zero and the bartender, again-amazing. One of the best margaritas I have had in a restaurant. Cucumber martini, delicious. Only comment is that the bourbon was not cold enough. Then a bottle of Decoy, it was their 'house' wine-say what? You mean the house wine wasn't some obscure wine drastically over-priced? No Virginia, it was not. Dessert-tiramisu out of this world. The Italian ricotta was a little salty. Highly recommend. Make a reservation though.
