    Really lovely place - not many covers so booking advised. Had the sharing platter for 2 people and plenty of food to go around. Lovely vibe - cosy taverna style. My only niggle would be to add some variety in the music played, perhaps add in some some traditional Greek choices and I would have felt like I was whisked away to one of the Islands for a nibble and a sundowner. Lovely meal and service will visit again.

    Went to Olimitzi on Friday lunchtime. It’s a lovely place, a little Mediterranean gem in Canterbury. The decor is wonderful. We ordered the meat mezze sharer for two. We weren’t waiting long and out came many dishes, all really tasty! Chris was a very welcoming host and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. We don’t eat huge amounts but there was so much food for the two of us that we ended up bringing half of it home… it made for a great 2nd meal later in the evening! All in all I would highly recommend this little treasure if you are looking for some Greek food in Canterbury

    The food was great, the staff were great and it had a lovely ambience. My only criticism is that they tried to squeeze in 2 sittings in a 3 hour period, so we only had 1.5 hours for our meal. We had literally only just finished our desserts when the next customers needed their table. We probably only needed another 10-15mins to feel like we were ready to leave. The staff were polite about it, but I think they need to allow 2 hours per sitting.

    Transported to the Med with delicious food, enjoyed a vegan dish with a glass of wine. Friendly staff and cosy atmosphere.
