"I’ve been working with the team at Olympus for almost ten years now. Nick and his crew commit the same rigorous, exacting standards to every project. It doesn’t matter if you’re a small indie who has to design creatively and inventively on a tight budget and even tighter space, or if you’re building out an entire restaurant from the ground up. Nick is very much a “measure twice, cut once” kind of guy and he won’t sell you something you don’t need. He’ll look first and foremost at how to maximize your efficiency as an operator. It’s not about individual sales for Olympus— it's about how the operation flows, how people can work together, and how the food and service can merge together harmoniously and with intent. This is what great restaurant design is all about. Congrats to the team as they climb new heights!"

"When it comes to sourcing top quality equipment for a bakery, finding a reliable and efficient supplier is important. For over 15 years, we've had the pleasure of working with Olympus and they have consistently exceeded our expectations. They always go above and beyond to help us find the perfect equipment within our budget. From the moment we began working with them, it was clear that this company is committed to excellence in all aspects of their business. Starting with an initial equipment inquiry through post-purchase support, their team has always been attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. Their dedication and exceptional service make Olympus a truly outstanding partner in our business."

"I have worked with Nick and his team for nearly 30 years. While I strayed away a couple of times, I always came running back to Nick for the care and passion he shows me, and the many equipment options and deals he finds. On top of that, he has become a dear dear friend. I can't recommend Nick and Olympus Culinary Solutions enough. They are simply the best!"

"I was introduced to the Olympus team for our very first restaurant build out. Our menu, timing and budget were taken into consideration when the team was designing and selecting equipment for our small space. Every inch of the kitchen was thought of and planned out, even our bar was designed by them. The service was great and we are now utilizing the same team for our next location!"

"Working with Nick and his team at Olympus was an absolute pleasure. Their dedication to excellence and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly remarkable. From the moment I engaged with their team, I felt supported, understood, and valued.
The professionalism and expertise they bring to the table are unparalleled. Not only did they meet my expectations, but they consistently exceeded them. Their attention to detail and proactive approach ensured that every aspect of our project was executed flawlessly.
What truly sets Nick apart is his genuine care for his clients. He was always a text or call away and willing to go above and beyond to help. He took the time to understand my needs and tailor their solutions to deliver results that truly mattered to me.
I cannot recommend Nick highly enough. If you're looking for a partner who is capable and genuinely invested in your success, look no further. Olympus has been a game-changer for me!"

"After nearly 18 years in the restaurant business, we deeply regret that it wasn’t until the last 5 years that we discovered the added value that Olympus offers over every other equipment supplier that we’ve dealt with.
We recently had the pleasure of working with Bobby and Nick on a new restaurant startup and have been amazed at the level of service, expertise, and true partnership they have provided, both leading up to the purchase transaction and long after. Since our relationship began, they have approached the partnership with the kind of professionalism, integrity, and urgency that has become so hard to come by these days.
They took the time to learn about our concept and the operation, collaborated with us on the kitchen design, prepared layout CAD drawings, made informed recommendations on equipment that best served our needs, offered very competitive pricing, and have provided exceptional service and consulting services long after purchase. They even advised us when it made sense for us to purchase a piece used from a third-party, rather than from them.
It has been well over a year since they delivered our equipment package, but they continue to service our account with the same level of service as they did pre-sale. Any time we call, the response is immediate. If we have a question or an issue, they send someone out to help. If there’s a problem with a piece, they address it.
After 18 years of working with equipment suppliers on a very transactional basis, it has been both refreshing and rewarding to work with a company that values the long-term relationship and treats their customers as partners."

"Bang Bang Pie & Biscuits has had the pleasure of working with Olympus on several different projects small & large since 2017! Bobby has been a constant resource for knowledge & resourcefulness regardless of the scale of the project/piece of equipment, be it a one-off question or larger scale guidance. Despite his seemingly never ending project list, he always replies in a timely manner with a thoughtful response. He examines each problem with boundless enthusiasm to discover the most effective solution both efficiency & cost effectiveness wise! We would not have been able to confidently expand without his prowess! Best in the biz for certain!!
