My wife eats here pretty often went to pick up her food tonight, they've been closed since 3 pm but I guess left their online orders up, took her money and no way to actually get said food? Guess we'll have fun trying to get her money back ?
My friend and I ordered the bowl and fries, it was absolutely amazing. Their seasonings are so diverse and their flavours are very unique. I will definitely be coming here more often. It is a build your own style and I very much enjoy that. Definitely worth the money!
Amazing food! The fries are to die for!!! Service is super fast and friendly!
This was catered to my work this week, and everything came in a separate container, and I was able to eat what I wanted. It was excellent. Decided to take my family there this Friday. I am vegan and gluten free, so I was super excited to try the falafel! As soon as we walked up to order, things went downhill. First, the falafel isn't gluten free, and that kinda shocked me, but I was willing to try the roasted veggies. I guess I assumed it would be peppers, onions, tomatoes or something of the like. Nope, broccoli, dry cauliflower and carrots. Like frozen veggies that were microwaved. Second, my family had never had their food before, so they needed time to look. (They are not gluten free or vegan btw) I do not think I have ever in my life experienced such distain from an employee at a business. She was the most unfriendly person that I have ever encounter in a customer service position, and to be so young.... It was very uncomfortable, and I just paused my review in order to ask my family what they thought about the service. They agree with me. I wanted to hide under the table after the way I played this place up to my family. We sat there and ate in shock, and we were almost afraid to go up and order more food to go. Finally, a different girl came to the counter, and she was pleasant. I will try again in a few weeks because I do like the food, and my family loved it as well. I will revise if there is better customer service. Also, make your falafel gluten free!!!!! ? (Rating is not for the sad,glutenous falfel, but maybe the sad, dry veggies ...?)(update- went back 2 more times, and the service and the food was great! I changed my rating since the angry girl seems to be gone. Enjoy!)
We went back after a long lay-off due to bowls being half full!This time bowls were full to rim and excellent flavor!Keep it up Olea ?
Great food and its good for you too. Sanford took great care of us as she prepared our bowls. You can also get the food in a pita wrap or as a salad. We both had the slow-roasted gyro meat. The grilled chicken is also flavorful. They have many toppings and House-made dressings along with sides and baklava for dessert. Regular fountain drinks along with hibiscus tea or mango-lime punch round out their offerings. If you are looking for good food that is healthy too Olea is the place to come.
Delicious, fresh and healthy! I had the steak Mediterranean on a salad. Yummy! Place was very clean, staff was very nice and we all enjoyed our meal ages 2- 38
Service was good but not traditional Mediterranean fare. Think Subway for Greeks. Overly salted tzatziki sauce killed the flavor of everything else on my gyro.I'll not be returning.
Enjoyed my saladThe spreads are nicePortions are fairCuriously they only have a cucumber and tomato salad but stated they have no way of serving tomato only
Great place. Nice and clean and prices were great. We got here at noon and the chicken was very dried out.

I really enjoy this Greek restaurant and it is quite a lot of food for the price! I typically go for the chicken bowl with a mixed base of rice and greens and then get a hot pita bread side for an extra dollar.
Visited Olea floor the first time today and was underwhelmed. The decor was simple, and a had a rustic Greek vibe to it, which I definitely enjoyed. Ample and spacious seating arrangements meant that I didn't have to be on top of somebody to eat and could eat my meal in peace.I ordered a couscous bowl with gyro meat, lettuce, Greek bean salad, raw red onions, feta cheese and tzatziki. The couscous was overcooked and bland, and the gyro was unfortunately cold. I suppose it makes sense for shelf life reasons to cook the gyro and then chill it, but it results in a lackluster flavor. Thankfully, the meat was still moist, so it wasn't a total wash. I ordered a side of falafel and once again was disappointed with cold product. Falafel doesn't take very long to fry, so it doesn't make sense to me that it isn't made to order, or at least kept warm. Service was nice, but all in all, an underwhelming experience that I cannot recommend in good faith.
Love their version of Greek food! So fresh and so good BUT kinda bummed that they starting charging extra money for gyro meat and they aren’t giving a very generous portion anymore. So it cost more and you get less..Hmmm that’s why most people choose to eat Mediterranean food is for the yummy gyro meat so why charge more and give less for that? Anyhow it is really good food and the chocolate chip cookie is to die for along with the mango lime drink….seriously… I am getting hungry now! Go!
Great food, I love their rice bowls! Their baklava is also rather tasty.
