Reviews for Olympita Food Truck in Olympia, WA

My husband and I are trying to branch out and try new foods, and we both had never had Mediterranean food before. I am so glad... we tried this place! We shared the Chicken Pita and the Beef/lamb Shawarma taco. The ingredients were so fresh and the flavorswere delicious! The owners were also very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back!

I do believe the cost would be normally lower for two, but we overindulged and I am so thankful we did! I had the chicken... shawarma hummus bowl, pita's, pickled vegetables, and all the sauces that you could get from the sides, as well as somethingelse I cannot recall the name of. Make sure to get the sides the mango sauce is spectacular! The best Mediterranean I've hadthis far in this state. Absolutely delicious! Read more

Never in my life have I had an undercooked patty this bad. Update....its not rage its a simple fact. Its truth. You should... probably check the quality of your food before you send it out and considering you didn't people need to be aware. Don't come atthe customer for what you did wrong. Food should NEVER be that undercooked. Read more

I wanted to love it the way I remember loving the falafels and the lamb schwarma sandwiches I used to get in the Boston area, so... exotic and always nice and fatty, decadent, concentrated flavor. The schwarma part on this sandwich is really good, the lavashis too, and it is definitely a filling sandwich! Excellent amba sauce, spice without spiceyness. Fun location directly oppositethe waterfront. But they went light on the salt + on sauces (which I had been very excited for -- garlic cream sauce!!!) whichall ended up at the bottom of the sandwich, so it was a bit dry ... on that point, the sweet potatoes inside are a creativetouch I've never seen before, but they dominated ... but I wonder if rice or shredded lettuce instead, would have helped thesauce stick all the way through. Also I really wanted a higher meat-to-filling ratio for that fatty flavor, even if the sandwichhas to be smaller. I'll be back when they have baklava again and I'll update this review after I ask for extra sauce :) Read more

I almost didn't rate them a 5. Only because I've had issues with them being open. First time was on a Saturday. The good... thing was I found Akashic (Review coming). That aside, I really wanted to eat here. Today I was finally able to. I had alamb/beef shawarma pita and my wife a chicken pita. They were both amazing. Interesting but good french fries. Key to knowingif they'll be open is to check their website. You have to click an "Order Now" link. Shows the complete menu with pictures. If things say out of stock you'll know they're closed. I ordered online and it was super quick. Our food was ready at the timethe website estimated. I recommend heading to this food truck corner. Read more

This place is easy to find, access, and exit...if you're walking. Finding a parking spot will be your biggest challenge, but... there's almost always one within three or four blocks (100-200 yards). Typical lunch / entre price for Olympia at $10-17 perperson. The food tasty and filling. Freshness is obvious in taste and appearance. No facilities and handicapped access istypical for downtown. If you found this review to be helpful please consider adding a thumbs up. ???? Read more

Olympita might be my favorite Mediterranean restaurant in the Olympia area. The pita is always fresh and perfectly cooked, with... soft spongy insides and robust enough to hold a lot of food. Their shawarma is amazing, nicely browned and unctuous meat withall the spices. And the hummus?I can?t even begin to explain how refreshing it is to find hummus this good. Perfectly smooth,delicate flavor, not overpowered by any one element. And with shawarma on top: phenomenal. The kebabs are perfectly cooked,with a serious char on the outside but juicy and tender meat on the inside, a hint of spice and a big hit of lemon. It?s alsothe attention to detail that I love here: the presentation of the hummus, the spices they toss the onions in, and the perfectlydiced veggies for the salad. Even the fries are all perfectly fried to golden brown and crisp, a feat that requires a lot ofskill and attention. I have yet to try the falafel, but I have high hopes! My one suggestion would be a bit more salt oneverything: the flavors speak for themselves, but a bit more salt could kick everything up just a bit more. The high quality ofall the ingredients is apparent though; they source the meat locally and the veggies always taste amazing! I can?t wait to comeback here and eat more. It?s well worth it!

Their food is delicious. It?s filling and healthy. We got the shish kebab and the burger ( forgot what it was called). It was... delicious. I asked for a small side of hummus but they gave me a bigger container. We also had the fries, pickled veggies andsome garlic sauce. The hummus is an awesome dip for the fries and a dressing for the meat and salad. Definitely recommend them. Read more
