taverna the garden

This was one of the best meals we’ve ever had! What an incredible experience. The literal crew of people who take care of your every need to the attention to making sure your meal is cooked to perfection, to the fresh fruit they serve to end your meal… WOW! Spectacular! We were blown away. Go out of your way to try this place. It’s worth it.

"I usually don't give reviews, but..." is an overused phrase, but in this case it is definitely true. This place is absolutely fantastic—the food, the service, the atmosphere…everything was spot on. I loved it here!

Amazing food, beautiful area with lots of trees and lights. Amazing views of the sunset! I would highly recommend the pork chop or the lamb casserole.

I wish I could give this restaurant more stars. Everything was over the top perfection. Food: fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. I am still dreaming about this meal. We enjoyed the cheese with grilled veggies, dips, and some other delicious appetizers. Everything tasted perfect. As a huge foodie in Greece I was worried about ordering chicken but I kid you not, their chicken fillet special was the best meal I’ve had in a very very long time. It was nearly a dinner version of eggs Benedict and my mouth is watering as I write this. It’s perfect. My partner had the lamb casserole, which was stunning delicious and soft. Don’t think a traditional American casserole - think a pot roast flavor profile. It was unreal. The banoffee is my new favorite dessert of all time and theirs is truly the best. It appeals to the fruit lover and the chocolate lover. Not too heavy, but totally worth every bite even if you’re full. Service: top tier. The staff appear to be so well trained and professional. We were always tended to and given incredible recommendations. Everyone was also extremely kind! Atmosphere: if the service and food weren’t enough, the ambience of the Olive Garden al fresco puts this restaurant in my top 5 of all time. It’s honestly magical. I would return to Olympia just to go back to taverna the garden. Will keep dreaming of chicken fillet and banoffeeeeeee!

From the moment we arrived at Taverna Garden, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. The service was excellent – friendly, attentive, and always with a smile. The food was absolutely delicious! We started with the Europa salad, which was simply fantastic – fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every meat dish we tried was perfectly cooked, juicy, and full of taste. You can really tell that everything is prepared with care and quality ingredients. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a great meal with friends or family. We’ll definitely be coming back.

Location: the view and the atmosphere was absolutely amazing. Although it got colder once the sun set down, the staff offered me blankets and a heater. Also the other guests were all reserved and I enjoyed the romantic filled air. Staff: very helpful, super efficient and they articulated with a proper English. Menu: the food was delicious and the portions great. The price / quality was excellent. Bathroom: clean Extra: from the very beginning I've never felt so welcomed in a restaurant, as I was allowed to experience here. For me it felt like the Greek version of what I would expect when visiting a Four Seasons Restaurant (in case you've read the restaurant book recommendation 'Will Guidara - unreasonable hospitality'). During the restaurant experience they amazed me with several surprises and extras. My favorite surprise was the homemade liquor. After tasting it I asked, if I could buy a bottle. Not only did they sell me one, the host wrote down the receipt by hand and explained it to me <3 Definitely a YES! You can feel live and passion regarding their hospitality.

Excellent restaurant attached to the Hotel Europa Olympia. Set in a grove of olive trees with views over the valley it provides good Greek food in a beautiful setting. Be sure to be ready for the sunset. Food is simple but well done. Wines are mainly local and good value. Staff were pleasant and helpful as well as being efficient. When we were there they had at least two bus loads of American tourists having a buffet. They were closer to the hotel pool and the crowd didn't make any difference to our relaxed meal. I would happily recommend the restaurant and the hotel separately. The fact they are together is an added bonus.

Easily one of the best restaurants in Greece. The service, the food, the ambience and the value are exceptional. It was such an incredible experience. We are so happy to have dined here.
