I've gone to lunch at the diner on numerous occasions. I find the food very good and quite reasonable. The waitresses at lunch time are exceptional. They are quite knowledgeable about what they are serving; they are friendly and make you feel at home. I will continue to dine there at lunchtime at least 3 times a week.

The food at the Olympian was average, not outstanding, but not bad either. The portions were a bit small compared to their neighbor Ashley's. But more importantly, the wait staff's attitude and demeanor was ridiculous. They were rude, obnoxious and very unfriendly. The waitresses, not just one I might add, made us feel unwanted and uncomfortable...they were fighting amongst themselves at point, in the dinning area...no lie.


If you’re in South Braintree Square, Ashley’s is a much better option and less expensive with no attitude.

Have stopped at the Worthington, MM restaurant many times before. Other times were OK, today was horrible and no one cared! Soup was canned and salty not homemade as waitress suggested and it was only luke warm. Had to be sent back. Chicken and penne ...

I too, was very upset with the service provided at your Johnson City, New York location. The manager was very rude and unprofessional with my table. This was after an incident we had with the waitress, who then refused to serve us after we asked why ...

Food is above average, waitress staff falls far below average....staff is always and I mean always rude. I have gone in there about 1000 times and I always get the same attitutes. It is too bad they dont take lessons in friendliness from the wait staff at Ashley's around the corner...now there is the place to go.

Um, hey, it's not a CVS it's a Brooks :-D

It's still a great place, I highly recommend the chicken shishkabob thing. Delicious, with feta.

Dont be surprised if you get a flaky waitress or the wrong food, however.
