Olympia Pizza

When a pizza joint has been around since 1967, you know it’s got to be good. Olympia Pizza was the product of years of work after six brothers migrated from the Greek island Evia to Vancouver in the early 60s. Since then, Olympia has been a family-run restaurant serving pizza, pasta, and Greek cuisine to the Vancouver community.
Address: 3205 West Broadway, Vancouver
Via Tevere Pizza
