This was one of those places that was on my list for a while but I never got around checking it out since it is close to home. I can't believe I waited so long to try this place. Food: Breakfast all day (they got me in already with this). Lot of different items on the menu to try, many mediterranean and turkish specialities that are not available in other places. They also serve standard breakfast and lunch(soup, sandwich, etc.) as well, for those who want to stick to American dishes. Plenty of bakery items, mostly turkish treats. I tried Revani and that was the best of all the other items that I tried. We also tried the Gyro omelette and Kavurmali Yumurta. The latter wasn't too great. Seating/Ambiance: Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The ambiance inside is pretty good. This might be my goto breakfast/coffee place now. Reducing one star because I was supposed to get pita bread along with my dish but the server forgot to bring it. He mentioned, it was on the way when he first came to serve the food but never came back. The place was fairly empty when I went and there were plenty of staff, so it was kinda odd that they forgot my side order. read more

Great service, reasonable food and nice location. I love the outside seating they have here. it makes the perfect lunch spot after Running The Dish. I really did hope that the food be better as I had been looking for a replacement for Pilita Grill in San Carlos after they closed over a year ago. Chicken Pita $7.95 (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=gyl21F9lmyAK8t8bEAJYGw#ukUasCaTSULY-7UkCJJGuQ) - Comes with a large amount of Salad. The Pita Bread is warm yet on the thin side. Chicken was nicely season with really good flavor but honestly could have done with a bit more as the majority of the contents was Salad. I do love my Salad but i love my Meat more. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=gyl21F9lmyAK8t8bEAJYGw#UYl1E89YKycpAKSDqLso_g) You can also find lot's of baked goods here - Various Cakes, Cream Horns, Chocolate Eclairs, Flan Maracons, Profiteroles, Cookies and Baklava along with various other Turkish items I am not familiar with the names of. They also have Turkish Delight yet on the 2 occasions I came here they had sold out, I guess you have to get there early in the day for that. Soft drinks as well as Beer and Wines are available along with a self serve water station near the side door and there is lot's of both indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Decent little coffee shop in downtown mountain view It's hard not to notice this place going through downtown mountain view, since it's literally the store right at the start of the downtown area, and has a pretty big outdoor seating area. Inside, there are lot of pastries, and the vibe is also very warm, with warm lighting, a lot of decorations, and down-to-earth furnishing. The wait staff are also very nice--they use a system of "number tags" to hand out after you pay for your food, and actually walk over and deliver your coffee to you. In terms of drink quality, the expresso was pretty legit--small, but heavy and dense. Overall, a decent, casual coffee place read more

I've been here before. Although never sat inside. This time meeting with two friends we chose to stay for a few minutes and catch up inside. It's confortable. Warm. And homely. The amount of goodies waiting for me at the register was mind blowing. A row of cannolis, macarons, eclairs etc! I settled for something not too big to save some space for our lunch. A banana nut bread. Requested warm. A hot cup of Apple tea. You get a number. They bring your order to your table. Hot tea. Almost hot banana nut bread. I'm guessing they nuked it too long. It made the bread dry. Oh well. Dat apple tea tho...#getthis Across from CalTrain. Next time will be that cannoli with my name on it! read more

The Turkish coffee is weak, without the robust flavor that I'm looking for: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#s2foCvneoJUyUSyEK_EKew The Su Boregi has layers of dough, almost like layered chow fun, with a small amount of cheese: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#SUqu0i7vNydmagyjH6A5Ng It has a nice al dente snap to it, and is very good. The borek is a layered bread filled with ground meat: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=M0MOuG4WlrnbUoe5JwovFQ#M0MOuG4WlrnbUoe5JwovFQ It's kind of bland, but has an interesting texture. You really need to heat this up in a toaster over, otherwise it's rubbery. I also recommend the Gözleme, a pan fried flatbread: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#0hV0XepJhWcNnfJtIyW-lA slightly chewy, and nicely charred, with great flavor. It comes in three versions: potato/onion, spinach/feta, and feta/parsley. The crepe batter they use is great; nice al dente snap: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#xhrEdtEXyY4Z1MDqUpeNZg In fact, the batter overshadows the filling: I scraped out an discarded most of the filling, except for a little cheese. The hash browns that come with the crepes are horrible. The Sucuk Yumurta is a breakfast mini-wok containing eggs and pepperoni-style sausage: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#I9qKQwj-mBLibtGPvAMYyA It's as good as it looks. The pita bread that comes with it is hard as a rock: get a side of poğça instead. The poğça (their spelling) is a soft fluffy bun-like pastry with a layer of cheese inside: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#TeYGmihTU4V4Xz6JP2ZXUQ It's really good, and goes great with the Eggs and sausage (Sucuk Yumurta). The rice pudding (Sütlaç) is great; nice caramelized top, and great texture/flavor inside: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#WksBayEPLxN4CZyvstw0aw The Turkish cookies are as hard as a rock: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#6OOTFNpfk6p75cR0VnEO9Q You'll need to soak them in coffee to be able to bite into them. The kazandibi is good; It's burnt milk pudding: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#zqFkYB32FF5EmBzODskfIQ the top and bottom are nicely burnt. The inside is not exciting, so I actually ate only the top and bottom layer. It's worth trying once. The regular style baklava is OK. the burma baklava (the roll shape baklava) is too soggy: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/olympus-caffe-and-bakery-mountain-view?select=MrIKy0NEW-sxsdDoINOEvA#absAV7Icims1kuQGIFT8cQ The espresso is good: nice rich flavor with bitterness and acidity, but lacking some complexity.

Hello everyone and good day to you all, I'm Panda you already made have heard of me and the work that I do as a documentarian and Profession Photographer. I have been traveling in the state due to Covid-19 and visiting unknown places many people do not want to visit. My purpose for this visit and my first was to see the local Japanese and Asian community businesses. I would like to support but I was a little too late for lunch. So, I happen to stop by the Olympus for some Onion Ring "I didn't finish" end up giving those to a homeless man in need. The beer was good as well and the onion was good too. But I wanted to try something different other than Japanese and Korean foods. Yes, I did notice after, they do use a QR system to order, therefore no contact. The manager or owner was asking me an odd question as I was in the middle of a Livestream and someone told him some false information. "Why are you filming and they said "I wanted to talk to him" Yes, I had no clue what was going on, So I show the owner my credentials to the Media and Press. I came here to show and support local businesses in the wake of this stupid pandemic. I did explain this to him and he understood. I want to help as much as I can, even if it's just for a moment. Yes, you already know me, I support everyone because I am in a fight of my life being back here in the states. The seating was excellent, service was fast and easy to order. Now I did Livestream this event "I'm ThePandaPhotographer and Mountain View businesses make me hungry. I will visit again someday or soon. https://youtu.be/U5sZ5gCqhew read more

So because the Caltrain schedule sucks, I always find myself waiting at Mountain View station quite frequently. Most early evenings, I'm not in the mood for any sort of pastry or coffee, but this particular day was an exception. Many things aren't exactly a bargain, in my opinion, in downtown Mountain View. So I noticed Olympus first, since it's right next to the station, only to come back to it after circling through downtown really quickly. I found myself ordering a turkish coffee and a persekare (probably messed up the spelling). Turkish coffee was pretty good; but if you don't like strong coffee, stay away. The persekare (sp?) was quite good, was a little messy trying to eat it in a to-go box with no fork. It's essentially a pastry soaked in some sort of sweet syrup with an almond on top. Don't really know how else to describe it, but it paired perfectly with a turkish coffee. Had I not been in the mood for a stroll while waiting for my train, I don't know how i ever would've noticed this gem of a cafe. It's also a great place to chill and get some work done on your laptop, which seemed to be common knowledge, after observing all of the patrons at the cafe. read more

Shrimp Pasta $13.95 Olympus has a vast menu that stretches beyond mediterranean food. They do burgers, breakfast, sandwiches, italian, etc. as a result, I can expect most of their items to be a hit or miss. While this isn't the best pasta i've had, it wasn't all that bad. The noodles weren't overcooked and there were plenty of veggies/shrimp. The flavor in their sauce is where i felt they were lacking. It was quite bland. I probably wouldn't order this again knowing there are better options out there. read more

I was leaning on giving this place two stars, but I felt the food was good enough to give this place a slight bump. We decided to eat outside for a nice little lunch as it was pretty damn warm and they had shaded outside seats. It's a beautiful day, so why not? We ordered inside and got some baked goods and some lemonade and coffee. Simple order right? We waited nearly 20 minutes with our number before the desserts that are made and lemonade and coffee came out. Yes, 20 minutes for desserts, coffee, and lemonade. The desserts were all great. Quality product without a doubt. The lemonade was probably the most iced down lemonade I had ever had in my entire life. While very tasty, I finished it with only a few sips. No good. Also, the two tables to our left were never cleaned for the entire time we were there and we sat down for awhile. Not exactly efficient or hygienic. Good to work guys! Overall, while the food was good, the place needs either more staff, or better staff. I was very close to giving this only two stars, but the cannoli was that good. read more

I really enjoyed this place! I came here with my sister for lunch yesterday, and I was blown away form the selections. They serve authentic pastries/desserts from Turkey and Greece. The pastry case is arranged nicely and are priced at about $3.5 at most. I ordered an arrangement of bites to try. The first piece was their Borek which is thin flaky savory dough w/ ground beef. This is served warm and has a similar taste to an empanada but with the flaky dough. This is delish! I'd recommend pouring hot sauce on this lol The second thing I had was their Spanakopita which is another savory pastry with feta cheese and spinach. This was also delish and goes great with the assortments for lunch. I suggest ordering some baklava for dessert as well! they're great tasting and has rich honey that'll make your fingers sticky! Pair your meal with either a traditional tea or a Turkish coffee. Olympus is a great place for light lunch and carries traditional food that can't be seen at most Greek/Turkish joints around the area. I'm definitely coming back to try lots more! read more

It's 103 degrees outside now, and I really wanted a Frozen Yogurt with Honey and Baklava today. So I ordered a half-portion of Nick's Fries with beef/lamb and the frozen yogurt, for dessert. I've had their frozen yogurt before, but Stephanie made it so delectable in its presentation, it could have been photographed, before being consumed. She put honey on the bottom, filling the container with a generous, heaping portion of yogurt and baklava carefully placed, midway down. I had to stop and admire it, telling her that out of 10 stars, her creation was worth 100. It was the BEST I've ever had! I'm not used to this heat, and Nick the Greek's frozen yogurt was an ideal summer weather choice. I'm downtown on Castro Street often; Nick's bowls and gyro's are always superb. With summer already here, next I want to try the cold salads, as they sound really good, filling and as with literally everything on their menu: very well priced. The location on Castro and the interior of Nick's, and the upbeat and ethnic music, feels like a holiday in Greece. I'd highly recommend this location, and if you want a *spectacular* treat, get a Frozen Yogurt, made extraordinarily special by Stephanie!

The falafel was extremely spicy - not just well-seasoned or a little hot, but spicy enough that I became drenched in sweat while trying to eat it. They tasted like pure cayenne, I couldn't finish. What I did finish really upset my stomach. After my stomach settled, I was excited about the baklava I got with lunch, but the nuts tasted like they'd gone rancid. I ended up throwing out most of a $20 lunch. Super disappointing.

You place your order at the front register and they deliver your food to your table. I ordered the chopped salad without peppers or pita chips. I added a side of beef/lamb gyro meat and a side of chicken gyro meat. I also ordered a small fountain drink. I found a table and waited for my order. It was delivered to me quickly and you can see the steam coming off of the gyro meat. My salad was huge. I didn't care for the lemon dressing so I asked the young man at the front counter if I could try the red wine vinaigrette. He was really nice about it and gave me the other dressing to try. The red wine vinaigrette dressing was perfect with the salad and gyro meat. The salad was loaded with cucumbers, tomatoes, garbanzo beans, feta, pickled onions, Kalamata olives and garbanzo beans. It was so good and the gyro meat was hot and savory. It all worked so well together. The ice machine was not working so I had to have my soda without ice. At least the soda was cold. I could only eat half of my salad and got some takeout containers for the leftovers. Overall, I think you get your money's worth with the amount of food you get here. I will definitely come back again.

Very, very, very bad service. You could come in there every single day and the owner doesn't know who you are and doesn't care. They hire new people every 2 weeks. I get that they don't want to let transient people into their restrooms, but who ever says "It's for customers only" and just stares at you? Do you know whether I'm a customer? Of course not, because it's your first day! If you want to do that, make people pay and show the receipt and put a big fat sign on the door that says "Toilet available to people with receipt only." Because every restaurant does that. Or do some marketing promotion and give customers frequent user cards. Give them 10% off their 12th purchase. If they spend $10 or more they get the card. Free advertising and tracking. They show the card and get the bathroom code. At least that will give you a better idea of who your RETURN CUSTOMERS are. And at least that's better than being RUDE to people. You can't think of anything better? You hire ignorant people who have no social skills and then wonder why no one wants to patronize your restaurant. These small-minded temp employees spit on your customers. Bad business, bad service. And I would give you my money...why? Do you understand reverb effect? You lost my business and the business of people I have formerly recommended to your restaurant. Won't go back and will recommend that no one else go there either. read more

This review was for a fantastic brunch today where we dined outside with some dolmas and…read moreMediterranean Breakfast plate. Let's start with the dolmas. I don't know what the green sauce was drizzled ontop of the dolmas, but it was delightful. I _think_ it was some kind of pesto, but I'm not sure. The dolmas were perfection, and I even ate the lemon pulp with the green sauce because it paired perfectly. Next up, the omlet with the grilled salmon and fresh pita.. I don't know what the red spice was, but the flavor was perfect, the salmon was moist and tender. The cucumbers were just the right amount of crunch, though the tomatoes were a little overripe for me. My husband enjoyed it all though. The portions were perfect for splitting between the 2 of us. I paired this with the fresh brewed iced tea and it was perfect. This isn't a ritzy place, it's a nice drop in for casual food and chat. The seating outside has shade and comfy seats and they have bowls for water for your dog if needed. If only Los Altos closed their main street from driving and followed in Mountain View's downtown feels this would be epic.

If you're opening a food truck and calling it kebab, at least use proper lavash. There are plenty of places selling lavash that actually works for kebab. Since kebab is basically the whole concept here, I expected something at least a little authentic. What they call "kebab" was basically just regular kofta on a skewer. Wrapping ground meat around a skewer doesn't suddenly make it kebab. I ordered 2 Adanas and the guy responded with "why Adana, just get kofta instead." Weird attitude for no reason. I really don't like unnecessary over familiar behavior like that. I didn't come there to be told what I should eat. And honestly, the "Adana" barely tasted different from the kofta anyway. Didn't enjoy it at all. Even if I judged it as plain kofta, I still wouldn't have liked it. I went because of the Google reviews, but after trying it, some of those reviews honestly felt like they were written by friends and family.
