About Olive Cafe

Olive Cafe is a restaurant known for its delicious falafel, considered the best in KC. They offer a selection of groceries and have kind and respectful staff. The shawarma sandwich is generously filled with meat and toppings, though some may find it not spicy enough. Vegetarian options include falafel and salads, including a vegetarian sampler with dolmas, falafel, hummus, babaganoush, and pita served with tzaziki sauce. The restaurant is praised for its huge portions at reasonable prices, with the food exceeding expectations. The atmosphere is rated as 2-star, and the staff are polite but not overly friendly. The restaurant is a popular choice after Friday prayer and is often compared favorably to fancier Mediterranean restaurants. Customers also mention the fast service, perfect hummus, and fresh, delicate flavors of the vegetarian dishes.
