I had my engagement party at The Stuffed Olive and it was a truly perfect night! Miranda, the event planner, went above and beyond to ensure all my questions were answered and worked with us on allowing us to move furniture, bring in decor, and add food for the group during the event. All of the guests were highly impressed with the service and I would recommend hosting an event here!

We went here for my cousins engagement party the food was great they had a room to the side so he didn't have to be around other customers and best of all there was their own bathroom over there... Perfect environment for such an event

The stuffed olive is the number one place for martinis and high end bar food for reasonable prices. Considering it's a high end vibe and provides a luxurious environment. Service is slow at times but I understand when it's busy
