Olympus Dining

My partner and I went for dinner on a Tuesday night, and the place was fully booked and buzzing with energy which I wasn’t expecting on a weekday! The ambiance was absolutely amazing, with beautiful sculptures and a stylish interior, plus a full open kitchen that added to the experience. I ordered the lamb brain and kokoretsi (lamb sweetbread), while my partner had calamari and octopus. To finish, we shared the lamb shoulder it was cooked to perfection. The food was high quality and full of flavor. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the service was excellent despite how busy it was. We really enjoyed the whole evening and will definitely be coming back to try more dishes.

Me and my friends ordered the Olympus Banquet, every dish served was flavoursome and delicious (the photos attached are my dishes). We were also served Gluten and Dairy free options, appreciated detailed explanation of each dish being served. Complimenting the atmosphere presented high quality of standard all round from the food to service. Big thank you to Lucia who delivered exceptional customer service. It was my birthday, received a dessert with a candle and sweet Happy Birthday song. Heartfelt appreciations, thank you Olympus Team

We drove over an hour to get to this beautiful restaurant. There is parking downstairs no problem !!! From the minute you walk in to being seated to getting your food it’s absolutely gorgeous and the service was excellent not wanting or needing anything. We went for lunch and we had the set menu which was so much food but it was great to try everything. It was really lovely. I can’t wait to go back and I highly recommend you making the effort to go to this restaurant in Redfern. It’s actually really easy to get to.

We brought a large group of customers and colleagues here for lunch, and Olympus Dining delivered an impressive experience overall. The restaurant is absolutely stunning - beautifully bright and spacious with that famous olive tree centerpiece that creates such a unique atmosphere. The layout works perfectly for larger groups, though I'd note it can get quite warm on sunny days with all that natural light. The food was solid across the board. While nothing completely blew us away, everything we tried was well-prepared and satisfying. For a business lunch with varied tastes in our group, the modern Greek menu offered good options that pleased everyone. The portions were generous, and the presentation was consistently attractive. Where we noticed some room for improvement was the service pace. With a group our size, things moved a bit slower than expected, and we found ourselves waiting between courses longer than ideal for a lunch setting. The staff were friendly and professional when they were at our table, but the timing could have been better coordinated. Despite the slower service, the overall experience was positive. The stunning interior design and that incredible tree make for great conversation starters, and the location in Redfern is convenient with decent parking options nearby. It's the kind of place that impresses clients and colleagues alike, even if you're not getting lightning-fast service. For corporate dining or special group occasions, Olympus Dining delivers on atmosphere and food quality. Just allow a bit more time than you might at other venues.

Lunch here for 6 people was superb, seated under the bougainvillea tree felt like you were transported somewhere else. Grear service by our waiter Josh, food was exceptional with tastes and flavours that compliment the modern Greek cuisine. The fresh bread was divine, fresh from the oven to the table as were all the other dishes we ordered.

Amazing Greek restaurant. We love the food, the vibe, and the interior. We had to book five weeks in advance, but it was worth the wait. Nothing to fault, as we enjoyed everything. We ordered extra servings of bread and saganaki because they were so delicious. I also loved the octopus, eggplant, and lamb. The vinaigrette on the oysters was amazing, truly one of a kind.

We had lunch at Olympus Dining in Redfern and absolutely loved it. The food was delicious. Dishes were well-balanced, compliments to the chef. The service was warm and attentive without being overbearing, and the overall atmosphere of the Eve Hotel and Olympus made the whole experience even better. A perfect spot for a 5-star meal. Highly recommend!

Ate here on a Saturday for lunch. Having secured a reservation nearly two months in advance, my anticipation for this popular restaurant was high. The decor truly is amazing, standing out as a highlight in the area. Unfortunately, that's where most of the praise ends, apart from the delightful juices accompanying the octopus. The taramasalata was a letdown, overly whipped and bland, completely lacking depth despite its appealing presentation. The lamb brains were just "okay," but the accompanying sauce was a misplaced chili explosion, even for a spice enthusiast like myself. The saganaki looked good but offered nothing memorable. The standout dish of the meal was the octopus. It was perfectly charred and moist, a testament to excellent timing by the kitchen, and its sauce was very enjoyable. The lamb, while having a decent texture, was disappointingly short on flavor. And the Greek salad was pedestrian; I've had better pre-made versions from woolies. Overall, the meal felt incredibly disjointed. The limited non-alcoholic cocktail options also added to the less-than-stellar experience.
