Olga's Restaurant, Clearwater, Florida Restaurant Details

Food:

This is an adorable tiny diner that my family has been enjoying for years. Why does everyone love Olgas? Because you truly get a great breakfast for a great price. It doesn't take long to get your food after you've ordered either. The servers are usually very personable. The only problem is that they do not take debit or credit. Cash Only. Those of us who already know this have no problem with it, but others can pitch a fit about it. It says so on the door! They also offer lunch, but no dinner. I think that's how they keep the prices low. We usually just go for breakfast. Go early any morning and you'll probably get a table easy. But wait until after Church on Sunday, and you will have to wait.

Lost 1 star cash only. ..Went for the 1st time today. I was more then happy with food and service. I will be back with friends.

Great food at a great price can't beat it for breakfast

Food:

My family and I go there almost every single weekend on both Saturday and Sunday. My parents having been coming here for almost 9 years since I was born (I'm 16 now) and we still love it. We have met the original and new owner and they both seem to get a long really well. The food is soooooooooooo good, for breakfast I will always get either pancakes or french toast and bacon, this place is the only place I know of besides chain restaurants that actually know how to serve crispy bacon, which is my favorite type, not like limp really greasy. We do also come for lunch and get amazing food, I highly recommend the French Dip with au jus, it is just melt in your mouth good, it is even better than some restaurants like Outback in my opinion. The servers know what they are doing and will often bring your drinks right to you as soon as you sit down if your are regulars like we are. They always have a smile on their faces and will often if their other business is under control or if their isn't a heavy breakfast or lunch crowd they will often chat with you and make you feel welcomed into what is basically a family. Which in most restaurants is hard to achieve that feeling, they really do care about who they are serving. The overall atmosphere is very very welcoming and unique, the food is very good (emphasis on very) and they strive to make sure that you get what you are paying for. Which in fact is very reasonable, everything they sell is very reasonable and that just adds to the overall 5 star rating I think they have earned from their constant wanting of making the customer leaving happy and full.

Food:

Its very cheap, which is the only good part. I got the grilled ham and cheese. The ham had gristle in it. I made it deluxe (which means they give you some dried out french fries and 2 bites of dry, tasteless cole slaw). I had to cover the fries with ketchup so they would go down my throat, but could only eat 3 or 4.

The servers acted like they were doing me a favor by waiting on me. It seemed like they knew everyone in there, and because I wasnt a regular, they wanted nothing to do with me.

The worst part though is that they dont take cards. I didnt find out until I had to pay. My meal was $5 and I had $2 on me. I had to go around the corner to get money out of my credit card (which costs me $10 + ATM fees to do) JUST to pay the other $3. So I spent $18 on this horrible meal!!! The guy at the register said there is a sign on the door...Im sorry..I figured it was 2013, and everyone excepted cards! I guess I was supposed to know that before entering, or I need to start reading every sign posted up everywhere so I can make sure I dont make that mistake again.

Its sad that I didnt get the same experience all the other people that reviewed this place recieved. It felt more like I was intruding on a family dinner and I was the unwelcome guest :(
