“Pam & Olive is such a great Mediterranean restaurant! The service was amazing from start to finish. A special shoutout to Lou—one of the best servers there. So friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend!“

“Absolutely amazing German-style Döner!
This place is a hidden gem — finally, real Döner in the U.S. The meat is perfectly seasoned, the bread is just right, and the sauces taste authentic. Generous portions and super fair prices make it even better. Tastes just like back home in Germany. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Came across this restaurant somehow. So I have decided to give it a try. It’s a small, cozy restaurant. Surprisingly food was good, and the restaurant very generous with the bottomless mimosa on a Sunday brunch. The champagne pour into the glass till it’s almost full. Leave only a little bit room to add the juice of your choice which was pineapple, guava, orange juice I forgot 1 more with just $19.99. It’s so cheap compare to other restaurants that offer bottomless mimosa starting at least $22 and up. Our server Gustavo was very nice, very attentive. There’s some parking in front and there are some in the back. I was there at 12pm so I found it ok. Not difficult at all. Not sure about dinner time. They do offer dinner menu as well on a Sunday brunch if you are interested you can ask for both menu to decide. For us, we ordered everything on dinner menu. lol.“

“Very good kebab wraps ( falafel or beef/lamb with salad. The garlic aioli was pretty delicious and tasty too. Staff are friendly and helpful.“

“The food is definitely better in Hawaii 😬
We tried the tacos our super sweet waitress recommended, and they were actually really good, super crispy and different from anything I’ve had before.
I got the mushroom ravioli, and it just wasn’t it… the pasta was thick and you couldn’t taste the mushrooms at all. My husband ordered a burger and said it was fine, but honestly, he thinks Burger King tastes better.
The woman who took care of us was amazing super friendly, warm, and really attentive. I’m giving it 4 stars just because of the staff.“

“Do yourself a favor and try this place out if you haven't already. The food is sooooo good. Fresh every time and the best part the prices are great! Amazing food for and amazing price. The people are super nice. This place is a hidden gem in Costa Mesa. I come here for breakfast mostly but they have a great burger for lunch and don't get me started on their coffee. Everything I've had here hits. You will be happy you came here.“

“Great Greek salads. Get the Chicken and fried pitas.“

“The service and food this evening for the 3 of us was wonderful! We came with no reservations but they found a way for us to dine inside and be finished within 1 hour. The steak scharma was wonderful. The humus and bubba gnonoush and garlic spread were wonderful too. I tried the kibbi nyeah. Was good but almost cream like. Not as meaty as I remember from the last time I had it it a few decades ago. It was spiced very mildly as well. They through in a baklava ice cream dish for our trouble. It was amazingly wonderful! Definitely coming back!“

“We enjoyed the food we go again“

“Pretty good, but kind of overrated.“

“The food is great but the customer service sucks! Please train your employees properly. Don’t hire anti-social people!“
