Amazing Greek food! The steaks are out of this world, especially the Chesapeake with crab meat! The stuffed grape leaf appetizer is delicious and the shark dish was the surprise winner of the night! Great family restaurant with options for everyone, even pasta with a giant meatball for the kids.

Now I have to make up for it!It is possibly the best Food I have ever eaten in my life! Greek, Italian Authentic Mediterranean food is the foundation but there is Soooo much more!!We started off with Homemade delicious bread and an Amazingly mouth watering Hummus andDolmades:tender grape leaves stuffed with steamed rice, black angus ground beef and a blend of spices, drenched in a creamy lemon and Dill sauce.Then for the main course John gotThai Style Lamb Kebobs which are Prime Cut Australian Lamb fire grilled with House made Thai ginger sauce and served over fresh Spinach, Asparagus and peppers over rice noodles!Then I had Lasagna served with amazing garlic toast and a side spicy Italian sausage that was the BEST I have ever tasted!The price is a little more than we usually spend but absolutely worth it! We came home with several days worth of leftovers and 2 pieces of Baklava AND 2 pieces of strawberry cheesecake that is calling my name as I type this.Can't wait to go back because I could eat there every day for the rest of my life!!My list of more things I can't wait to try are Yia-Yia's meatballs, Garlic and Herb pork chops, Greek Lamb Kabobs,German mushroom and dill gravy over Fettuccine with Yia-Yia's secret recipeMeatballs.

Someone I know used to work here and he said it was hard work but fun. I’ve ordered here lots of times and they have wonderful bread and hummus, basically any entree you get will be delicious. Not many vegetarian options but hey you can’t have everything !! This wrap was wonderful, and I definitely slammed it. I haven’t tried any of their cheesecakes or drinks but I’ve heard that they are very very good!
Friendly and attentive staff. Huge menu with lots of choices. Food was delicious and large portion sizes.
Good food , good service Way too many tables pack in like sardines. Not sure what they are expecting in terms of crowds . Way too cold as they froze us out with the AC. The prices are approx 50 % higher than what we would normally expect basted on food quality and qualtity .
Olivia’s is a great Mediterranean restaurant located a few miles outside of Gettysburg. The food is top quality and the staff is very accommodating. They have a nice varied menu. A small greek side salad is not so small & includes several green & black olives, a dolmade, the pepper that I don’t think anyone eats, thin carrot strips, cucs and tomatoes, fresh chopped lettuce and a scoop of feta cheese. Then I had their bruschetta; delicious with ricotta, mozzarella and tomatoes, broiled in its own iron skillet. Needless to say, I took home hall the bruschetta to enjoy tomorrow!
It was outstanding ? The food was so good service was top notch. Great atmosphere. I got a Reuben and onion rings lunch special never had a Reuben like it.I couldn't eat it all.
Really good food! Really nice staff. We enjoyed our first time at this restaurant. Open later than most restaurants in the area, huge plus.
Olivia's is a great place.Easy to find, plenty of parking and excellent food.The portions are generous so do not overdo individual appetizers!All meals start with bread and hummus.I had the thick pork chops (two) which were very lightly breaded and generously doused in garlic butter. They were tender and accompanied by mashed potatoes and broccoli.Chicken caprese was equally delicious and was preceeded by a Greek salad with feta cheese and grape leaves!While desserts looked great, unfortunately we were already full!
I’m shocked to see so many good reviews. We tried here for first time on a Thursday so I guess Nothing was fresh. It was actually very gross to the point we paid our bill and left the food. We didn’t even eat our meals for the fear of getting sick. So I’m guessing most of these good reviews must be weekends. After our experience I wouldn’t dare give the food a second chance. I don’t recommend any pasta or seafood
