Lovely meal in the wine cellar at The Black Olive. The food was outstanding. Definitely one of the best meals that I have eaten in ages. Very memorable food, looking forward to going there again soon. I really, really wanted to give this place a 5 star rating but unfortunately the service was not great. The waitstaff seemed to disappear on us, we definitely would have ordered another bottle of wine but the server did not return. She also did not return with a seltzer water that was requested twice. I get it that some people in a private room might like to be bothered with checking in, but I think that we were not checked in enough. Also, I hate to mention this but it was very awkward when we left because we were told that there was a mistake running the credit cards that two of them were missed, when in fact in turned out that one of the servers had pocketed the $180 cash since two of of paid cash. I am hoping this was an honest mistake but it was definitely something that should not have happened. Again, the food was outstanding and the wine cellar was a great atmosphere. Hoping to give it another try soon.

All around great experience. Delicious food and great service. I am addicted to the village Greek salad. The Chilean sea bass was perfect and the tiramisu was a whole event.

Don’t listen to the bad reviews! We eat in Baltimore all of the time, but this was one of our best meals. The food is fresh and cooked with Mediterranean love. We loved the tzatziki and octopus mezze as well as the sea scallop and Mediterranean bass entree. We were lucky to be seated on a quiet night, perfect for seafood lovers on a date night.

We like coming here. It has a relaxed dining room & the food is impeccable. The service is as well. We all had fish dishes and I would recommend any of them. I noticed the dining chairs are very comfortable. Sometimes you forget about the little things like that. I think It's a perfect place for special occasion dinners. Enjoy!

Unbelievably amazing food, Demitri treated us like family, and I can't wait to go back.
Seriously, go here immediately and order everything on the menu. I had the greek salad, Salmon, and Tiramisu. They had to cart me out I was so full 😅

Lamb chops amazing. Calamari crispy yet soft. Meatballs full of taste, surprisingly so. Zucchini could have been cooked more and shall request next time. Delightful and was great. Hard, very hard, to find such great Greek food.

Restaurant Review
Upon entering the restaurant, one is instantly transported to Greece through the delectable homemade dishes that tantalize the palate. The flavors are robust and reminiscent of the sun-kissed Mediterranean coast.
Seating is a mixed bag: the chairs are wonderfully comfortable, ensuring a relaxed dining experience, but the tables are on the smaller side, which can make for a cramped setup.
However, the service leaves much to be desired. A lengthy wait of 15 minutes just to place a drink order sets the tone for a less-than-stellar dining experience. Furthermore, the waiter’s demeanor made it feel as though we were inconveniencing them by not being immediately ready. To add to this, there was a distinct lack of guidance regarding the menu, leaving diners to fend for themselves in terms of understanding the offerings.
On a brighter note, the restaurant’s atmosphere strikes a balance with its noise level, allowing for both ambiance and conversation.
In conclusion, while the food and ambiance are commendable, the service could use significant improvement to match the quality of the dishes.

The black olive is a nice tiny restaurant situated in Baltimore and is a very good place to eat. The feeling when walking in is really comfortable. The customer service is nice and the waiters are very patient and kind people. My main course both times having dinner here has been the black olive lobster pasta. It’s a really delicious and well put together dish. The sauce and noodles go perfectly together along with the lobster. In conclusion, a very good place that’s welcoming and friendly with delicious food. <3
