Olympia Pizza brings rich culinary history to the heart of Vancouver's famous Kitsilano. Six brothers originally from the island of Evia in Greece who now call Vancouver home, had a vision of opening up an authentic home style eatery. Their extensive resume in entrepreneurial food and beverage ventures made them the perfect canditate to accomplish this. In 1967 their vision came true and Olympia Pizza was born. It has been a land mark in the local neighborhood and has been highly publicized and revered by local food critics. Our friendly, professional servers and the perfectionists in our kitchen want you to enjoy your time with us at Olympia. Our ambience is one of exposed structural brick, rich timber beams and high ceilings. This ambience, combined with a diverse yet straight forward menu, brings a new culinary experience to Kitsilano.more...See more text
Six brothers from the Greek island of Evia opened this Kistilano restaurant back in 1967. Today, the neighbourhood pizzeria delivers a crowd-pleasing menu of hot and cold Mediterranean appetizers (spicy feta dip, vine leaves, calamari, saganaki), fresh soups and salads, pizzas, pastas, souvlaki and traditional Greek dishes like moussaka and dolmathes (stuffed grape leaves). The sprawling patio here a lively hot spot. Visit early to grab a seat, order a pitcher of sangria and enjoy people watching from this prime locale.
Enjoy the best of both worlds at this casual local favourite in Kitsilano. Whether you’re craving classic Italian cooking or fresh Greek fare – you’ll find salads, pizzas, pastas, souvlaki and a number of meaty mains to suit your Mediterranean cravings. The traditional Italian lasagne is a cheesy baked tower available in small and large portion sizes. Alternatively, opt for a Greek-style casserole dish; Moussaka has the same stacked look of lasagne but features layers of beef, sliced potatoes, eggplant and a creamy béchamel sauce. Best of all, these layered wonders are also available via delivery.
