Loved it! I’d hoped for more Greek food on the menu but gosh, everything was delicious. From the sweet hostess and the attentive servers, the great decor to the delicious food, what’s not to love. It’s even BYOB. Pizzas are great. Get the Mezza platter.

My friend and I stopped by after visiting Longwood Gardens. The food here is absolutely delicious! Great atmosphere, great service, and dessert was amazing too! We will definitely come again when back in the area. Highly recommend!

We stopped in while we had a 2 hr wait from a class we took. So glad we did! Our server, Jess, was fabulous! The food was great. The sachetti was phenomenal! The fig and prosciutto flatbread was also good but the pasta was amazing. The lemon mousse cake was also great. I wish there was a place like this in DC. So good!

Food was mildly disappointing, especially given the price points. Might have been an off night or because it was takeout...

The food was great but service was exceptional! Chrissy (Hope i spelled that right) was completely awesome!
Great BYOB in Kennett. I had the Mediterranean Mezze Platter as my meal and my friend had the Chicken Lemonde - both were amazing. Service was pretty slow - we were often waiting for water or for ordering additional plates but the food made up for it.
Everything was great, beautiful restaurant, great atmosphere, and everything we ordered was fantastic. Really looking forward to coming back again sometime!

This was our second visit to The Naked Olive and it was great! The atmosphere is inviting, our service was exemplary and our dishes were delicious, starting with the fresh bread and olive oil. We shared a crisp Greek salad and our mains were the braised shortrib beef and the seafood cioppino. The portions for each were generous and the cioppino had lots of seafood in it with a very tasty broth. The braised beef was "fall apart tender". We can't wait to try their other dishes!
Parking: Plenty of parking surrounding the restaurant. Entrance to the parking and restaurant is from the left side of the street.
