The Green Olive is a small restaurant with limited seating, known for its friendly service and fantastic Mediterranean food. The food is delicious and fresh, with generous portions that customers appreciate. Popular menu items include their tender and tasty meat dishes, such as the schwarma wrap filled with savory chicken, creamy sauce, and veggies, and the secret green sauce that enhances the meal. The falafels and hummus are also highly praised, along with the crispy fried potatoes served with a cilantro sauce. The venue is located in a shopping area with plenty of parking, making it a convenient stop. The atmosphere has a “no-frills” mom & pop vibe, which many enjoy. Customers have mentioned that the food is cooked to order, ensuring quality and taste. The restaurant even provides a real changing table in the bathroom, adding to its family-friendly appeal. The Beef Kabobs are a must-try, and the Feta Fries are practically fought over. The lamb is also loved, and the man who can eat everything always leaves feeling full. This is a family restaurant you cannot miss, worth the trip every time. The food was amazing and the staff very helpful and friendly. The prices are very reasonable. There is not space for larger groups.
