Food: Ordinary fare in copious helpings

The imagery of Olympic Cafe's thriller, the Chicken Teriyaki conjures up taste strings that demand to be strummed. The Pancakes have been waxed so eloquently; they could spark a foodie pilgrimage. Then there's the Fried Rice, a rice to meet you kinda dish. All good, all not an absolute knock-your-socks-off sensation.

    Fantastic prices for great tasting food and timely good service.

  • Okay Quality

    Basic, straightforward food; quality matches the cafe's simple presentation.

Vibe: Grimy ambiance, open for alteration

The ambiance at Olympic Cafe is tantamount to an undercover film location for a grunge movie, one that blends cringy service and dingy aura into a cocktail few would willingly sample. This olfactory onslaught won't be doing the restaurant any PR favors and need serious redressal.

  • Bad Aesthetic

    Dirty surroundings, unorganized service and dingy atmosphere create unpleasant experiences.

Perks: Snug parking and hostile outdoor seating

The parking situation here shares more similarities with an anorak; tight, small and suffocating. Long waits are as frequent as coffee refills. What's more, outdoor dining experiences seem to be the ticket to an adventure in discomfort more than the culinary escapade you envisioned. Catering to large groups here? You'd be better off trying to park a jumbo jet in a car garage.

  • Bad Service

    Long waits, rude service, and slow food preparation are common complaints.
