    Three Greek Sausage with Two Eggs
    Jeck F.

    I had a great experience grabbing breakfast on a weekday morning. The server was friendly and attentive. The Greek sausage is super tasty and good came out quickly. I'd recommend for breakfast if you're near campus.

    Greek American diner around the UDistrict area. Parking is available in a lot but is very limited, though there is decent number of free street parking. I went here for a brunch on Friday and it was not busy. They open really early also, and apparently allow people to chill before the kitchen opens for some coffee as they wish, which is nice. I got the Greek Hobo which is one of Guy Fieri's favorites. It's good but a little pricey at $19.50, but large portions. The typical American style diner that is large portions for high prices, thereby limiting the amount of variety you can get. The dish comes with choice of toast so I got wheat, and they slab on a good amount of butter on it. The dish had Greek sausage which is a beef sausage, egg, hash browns, and feta, all of which mixed together well. I'd have loved if the hash browns were crispier but otherwise, decent dish that emphasizes more in quantity than quality. The portion is huge that I did not feel the need to eat another meal after consuming 2/3rd of the dish. I took the rest for leftovers which reheated up well. Service is okay. For an American diner, I expected more prompt water refills and checking up if I needed anything. There are some people that bus the tables better but the waitress assigned to my table was fairly absent during the dining experience.

    Overall, I'd say it is a 3.5/5. For Seattle it is a smaller, more affordable breakfast location. The food is good, I got a more traditional breakfast and it was decent. The ham was very fatty and greasy and the bread is just toast from a vendor, not homemade unfortunately. They have more options on the menu that are more "exotic", if you would so it really depends on what you order. The service isn't great, my water got refilled maybe once so after having waited to be seated it was nothing special. The restaurant itself is sort of compact however, they seem to seat a lot of people. The prices are good, the food is decent, the service is not great so, I probably wouldn't return.

    Greek Hobo

    Voula's thoughtful staff & kind loyal patrons are great! Voula's went out of their way to make my Greek Hobo delivery (w/ added cheddar cheese, sour cream & sourdough - a friend suggested yrs ago) is so good. The effort deserved praise...not that Voula's needs it.

    The service was pretty speedy for as busy as it was! The food was good and is very generously portioned too. We had to take it to go. Also an unexpected delight was the fact that you can sub vegan sausage for any dish. The ambiance is kind of what you'd expect from an older diner. The tables are small and somewhat crowded into the T shaped layout with the kitchen in the middle of it all. Would definitely recommend trying the Guy Fieri recommended items and either coming hungry or knowing you'll be taking left overs. Also to be clear there's no outdoor seating anymore - just indoors.

    Voula's café feels straight out of a hallmark movie with the kindest servers, cutest retro decor, and yummy diner style food. I came to Voulas because my friend recommended me and it did not disappoint. I came around 9 am and the service was pretty speedy and even more importantly the waitress was so kind and helpful. She came to ask if we needed anything multiple times. I got the naked hobo and it was pretty yummy. I would say definitely get the house made hot sauce with anything you order because I added that on top and the flavors were automatically enhanced. I think this order would be perfect if I added avocado and more veggies to it but honestly it's such comfort food that it was amazing anyways. I would definitely try Voulas out on a rainy day or whenever your in the mood for some solid classics!

    Eating here made me feel like I was in a diner from Twilight. I'm not even kidding, I heard the waitress ask someone if they wanted their usual! It was very welcoming and overall super yummy too. The portions are really big and I ended up having lots of leftovers. I ordered the biscuits, hashbrowns, pancakes, and greek yogurt with walnuts and honey. Although this was split between two people, we were so full. My favorite was probably the yogurt bowl. It was one of the best I've had. I can see why Guy Fieri took a visit here, it's a very old-timey and delicious spot.

    Ordered from this cafe since our first choice didn't work out and i'm glad we did! This was our first time trying a greek cafe and I was pleasantly surprised. I thought the salmon worked nicely with the eggs (though I didn't expect it would be scrambled together) and wasn't fishy at all. My friends thought their omelettes were great. I didn't love how the pork in the benedict was sliced (texture similar to turkey) but it was fine, and the sauce was delicious. My only complaint is that the hash browns were unseasoned, and didn't even have salt or pepper, so some sort of sauce/condiment is definitely necessary. Overall, the food is a great price for the huge portions and I would definitely come back! Note: we ordered for takeout and the wait was around 10 minutes, which is really fast!

    I had breakfast here several years ago and had forgotten how to get here. Happily, I was able to find them this morning and ordered Billy's biscuits along with a side of bacon. Perfection. The gravy was nice and thick. The biscuits were soft and eggs cooked just right with some cheese on top along with hashbrowns. Will come back. Service with a smile from Alicia E and short wait for food. Ambience is typical diner-type experience. No thrills, just good food.

    This was my second trip in less than two weeks, so I could get the Freagy Greegy. The good and the bad: Once I find something I like about a place, that ends up being my go to dish. In this case, it's the Freagy Greegy omelette that comes with Greek sausage, red onions, spinach and feta. The bad would be the resistance of veering from my favorite dish to try something else on the menu (eg, Ragin' Cajun B&G, Piñata Benedict, Smokey the Salmon w/ light cream cheese - thanks Quinn!) and finding out they are equally delicious. My husband got The Oddinator with BBQ sauce on the side, which is smoked pork, mushrooms, green onion and swiss cheese. It was tasty and came with generous amounts of shrooms. I generally prefer a scramble over an omelette, as I like everything mixed together. However, Voula's has changed my mind about the omelette. The egg is a thin, smooth layer that is evenly cooked and wrapped nicely around all the filling. Thank you fellow Yelper, Marie B. for the first introduction to Voula's and the Freagy Greegy. This place reminds me of the old Stoneway Cafe from back in the day. Delicious food with quick and friendly service. Voula's serves decaf coffee in a different mug - brilliant! Don't be discouraged by the wait outside, it goes fast and worth it for the delicious food!

    Super cozy, American aesthetic brunch spot near the UW waterfront. This feels like one of those breakfast places/diners that you would find in the midwest, and the decor is pretty good. The food is really large portions, but is pretty mediocre. I feel like I can make better breakfast food at home, but Voula's is nice for the vibes when you're feeling lazy or hung over.

    Whenever we go out of town we like to find a Triple D (Diners, Drive-ins and Dives) restaurant to try out. We visited Seattle this week and found Voulas. It was conveniently super close to our hotel. We ate there twice in the 3.5 days we were there. We all got breakfast both times. (I'm sure lunch is good too). The portions are generous! The side of bacon was scrumptious. The pancakes fluffy. The hash browns crispy. The fresh squeezed OJ delicious!! Try it out if you're in town.

    Veggie Burrito
    Shannon Victoria M.

    Absolutely loved my experience here! After a short wait, had the veggie burrito, hash browns, coffee, and hollandaise. The sauces on the table are a must try, too! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an awesome classic diner and quality brunch with good portion sizes. Service was prompt and on the ball with the water and coffee refills.

    Greek Hobo. Mushrooms, Greek sausage, onions, peppers, hash browns and topped with feta cheese.  It's really good with the fresh salsa.

The café has around 20 seats, including a mini couch, a table in the middle, and a few seats by the window. It's the type of place where you might end up sitting right next to someone, so be prepared to make a new friend! The vibe was definitely more for people who need a quick place to work and not for big groups and loud conversations. Parking on the side street that it's on is limited, but I was able to find a spot easily around the corner since there's free 2-hour parking in the neighborhood. You'll need to ask for a key to use the bathroom after you order. They sell coffee beans and a selection of merchandise, along with a small range of pastries like muffins, cookies, and quiche. You order your drinks, and then you have the option to customize them with syrups and drizzles. The ordering process was quick and simple. I had an old gift card to use, and they had to transfer the balance to a new system, which is now linked to my phone number. Overall, it's a good spot if you're looking for a quiet coffee break, but it's not exactly the most exciting place to linger for long. Lastly, I ordered a latte with a white peach flavor. Which was subtle. Didn't really stand out like I hoped. Went with something different because why not! I also had their quiche which had veggies and goat cheese and that was magnificent. Highly recommended. Food ranges from 5-8 dollars and lattes range around 6 dollars. I had the jumbo which is 20oz.

The service was also great, considering there were many people and only one server. The coffee was good and people were all making an effort to speak Spanish, which I very much appreciated. The tortilla de patata, was also fine. That was the good. Overall, the food, as simple as it was, was really, really dissapointing. First, they rely exclusively on a microwave and a toaster oven. This should probably mean they serve only a few premade pastries and maybe come fiambres and call it a day. But I did not realize this when I ordered churros con chocolate for the whole family. Instead of having freshly fried churros - the only way to serve these, and the only way you will ever have them in any cafeteria in Spain - they preheated some pre-baked abominations along with a schmear of cold fudge sauce in a saucer. For a place so infatuated with Spain to serve something so wholly inauthentic really surprised me. Is it that hard to make chocolate a la taza? Is it that hard to have a frier and serve up some fresh churros? That's what we thought we were getting.... The ensaladilla was also a poor imitation of a Spanish classic, with mostly mayo, hardly any tuna, and punctuated with a smattering of pale peas. Even the pan con tomate, jamón y queso was bad. I confess that I've never understood the Catalan tendency to grate tomato on bread for these montaditos, but Ole doesn't even do that. Eschewing this easy opportunity to use a fresh ingredient, they squeeze some cold tomato sauce on a slice of toast instead. Almost as bad, the jamon serrano they use is cold and presliced (meaning that the salt is brought to the surface of the meat), instead of room temperature like jamon needs to be, rendering it dry and hard instead of warm and tender. In short, Ole cuts corners at every turn, relying on premade dishes for nearly everything, a decidedly un Spanish approach to food. Seattle desperately needs an authentic little Spanish cafeteria where folks can get good, simple freshly made tapas made with love. This place doesn't even try. With all that being said, if you want a good coffee and to be surrounded by people who love the language, Ole offers this. And that's pretty good too..

You hear and read only Spanish, and if you're well versed in the language, you will spot everywhere the signs of Castilian Spanish from Spain. Watching people struggle a little bit ordering drinks and tapas brought back similar memories from travels to Spain with one big difference. Here, the owner is also a Spanish teacher (there was a class in session in the back room while I was there), so she helps you through the experience without breaking the spell by resorting to English. It wouldn't be fair to comment on the food barely 24 hours after opening. We'll see how that develops. Their intention is to provide a rotating selection of Spanish tapas. They have no kitchen, but neither do many Spanish bars. The beauty of classic Spanish tapas (jamón, queso, boquerones, pan, aceitunas, etc.) is they don't require cooking. The key is quality ingredients and as they say in Spain, "poca floritura." Olé café is the perfect remedy for Spanish nostalgia. As I stepped outside and returned to Seattle, USA, I marveled at how small our world has become.
