My first time at Olive’s was Tuesday for lunch. Our waitress was very personable and helpful. I ordered the olive burger with french fries and my friend got the Cuban Sandwich with fries. My food was excellent!! My friend has eaten at Olive’s several times and she told me beforehand that the food and cocktails were excellent. She was correct!.
I highly recommend this restaurant. The food, service, atmosphere...Excellent.
Last but not least: Free street parking is available next to the restaurant (west side) as well as the parking lot across the street.
Fabulous, authentic food in a beautiful, quaint setting. Enjoyed celebrating my daughters birthday outside on the patio. Perfect night! Thanks for a great experience!
This was me and my wife’s first time to Olives. It’s been on our list for quite some time, but just hadn’t had time to check it out until recently. We walked away incredibly impressed. My wife got the Dan Dan noodles and it was spectacular. I got the chicken salad sandwich and fries and was pleased :) We loved the food and the atmosphere. Service was perfect as well! We also got the Elote dip, which was awesome- we just wanted to keep eating it!!
Worth traveling to check out! We will Definitely be back!!!
Olive’s food is SO GOOD! They’ve had a little menu revamp and we were thoroughly impressed. The meatloaf was amazing. We are definitely adding this to our go to dinner spot list. I’d highly recommend trying to sit outside on the patio in the summer time. The service can be slower and could use some improvement, but the great attitudes and food make up for it.
We loved Olives! We were visiting from out of town and picked this out of a long list of possible places to try and were so glad we did. The interior is beautiful and relaxed, staff were extremely friendly and attentive, and the food was nothing short of excellent. Days later and I’m still thinking about the seared salmon and farro salad I had! Good drinks and wine selection, and plenty of vegetarian options. Would love to come back if we’re ever in the area again!

Great food, extremely courteous staff. Was a little chilly so had to keep my coat on, but very clean, great looking bar n grill. Very limited lunch menu with about 12 food choices and some sides. My burger was one of the best I had in a long time. The 2 men in the kitchen(man bun and other guy) were dropping F bombs like crazy out loud, which had I been there with a child for lunch would not have been good. That being said though, it is a very cozy place. I'd just clean up the kitchen language only because it is open concept to the customers. Coffee Presses were a nice treat too. I'd rate it at a 4.5 of 5 stars thank you for a great experience.
What an adorable, from scratch restaurant! The options offer unique flavor combinations. I truly enjoyed everything we had. The drinks are also unique and delicious. Our server was helpful and so kind.
Amazing restaurant! The vibe is modern moody. Martinis are the favorite and the Elote dip was to die for!! An East GR must stop!
It was a busy night but we were still seated right away and our waitress was very attentive. We were seated upstairs with a couple other patrons. it was secluded but still nice.
Miranda, our waitress, made recommendations on beverages and offered honest opinions on the best items to try from the menu. She gets an A++ from our group.
I tried the seasonal code which was sweet but delicious and the pulled pork with fries which was good. Everyone enjoyed their meals and left full.
We had a lunch reunion of high school friends on October 16. We can get a little noisy with laughter so we sat upstairs. The staff at Olives was friendly and gracious. The food was excellent and we had a wonderful time. M. Moore
First time back to Olives in awhile. The food is still great, the meatloaf is a staple that never seems to get old. Drinks are reasonable and the outdoor patio is a comfortable place to enjoy a meal.
