Olympia Cafe

Frommer's Review

Run by a boisterous Mediterranean family, this cafe is where many New Mexico residents go for authentic Greek food. It's very informal (you order at a counter), it's right across from the university, and diners eat there at all times of day. It has a lively atmosphere, with bursts of enthusiastic Greek chatter emanating from the kitchen. With a full carryout menu, it's also a great place to grab a meal on the run. I like to get the Greek salad, served with fresh pita bread, and white-bean soup. A standard is the falafel sandwich with tahini, though my most recent one was light on falafel. The restaurant is well known for its gyros, and the moussaka is excellent. For dessert, try the baklava.
