What do you think of Olgas on Smith in downtown Brooklyn?

Dunno, but I’m going to try and swing by either this or next Sunday. Its got a OK hechser, so my guess is, its run by a Chabad’sker. Smith and 3rd is only a few blocks from the Prospect Park Chabad house, so if in doubt, you can check with them to see if the place is under their watch as well.

if there is an ambulance in the restaurant, thats not a good sign

I was always ambivalent about the ambiance in an ambulance.

No… this is broken telephone.

OK, back on track. If the place is a favorite of the Prospect Park / Park Slope crowd, and is kosher, I’m pretty sure its going to be a real scene. Not a teen hangout, not a place where the lights & sirens crowd goes, but a real scene none-the-less.

Think Matisyahu, as opposed to Lipa.

Lets see what the first CR report has to say

I finally made it to Olgas, and for those of you who have not gone yet, I think its worth the trip.

Panninis are their specialty, and the sweet potato fries were top notch.

Place is very nice, floor to ceiling window, ideal for a daytime date. When you’re done eating, you can walk down one block to Court Street and check the shops there (nothing real interesting for me, but Mrs. loves to window shop, and Court St had loads of quirky, trendy stores)

I got a prob. when I am asked to order food, I order for mostly non kosher people, and am given a budget based on non kosher, so I order Kosher, adn end up paying out of pocket for the balance, and wodner maybe allow them to order and bring something from home. Only gain for my financial daily subsidy is knowing sometimes that a jew eats kosher. (a jew sometimes in group, not always).
