    Amazing Mediterranean eats here! The plates are so big, the meat is flavored spot on. Really loved the shrimp and filet mignon. Wide selection of desserts as well, definitely worth a stop!!

    The Green Olive is a cute Mediterranean cuisine that offers a large variety of delicious healthy options. Visited during lunch hours, although there was a lunch hour rush the service was expeditious on my order.
    The staff is very friendly and welcoming. They have a pleasant patio seating for you to enjoy the socal weather!
    The home style spicy potato’s are definitely a one of kind! They had the perfect crunch with lemon flavor. After the favorable portions I had, I was satisfied and still had room for dessert which consisted of a sweet Baklava and creamy pistachio cheesecake (:

    Came here for lunch. The food was really yummy. Got the falafel, lamb plate and baklava. Falfel was super crispy and the lamb was herbaceous and tender. Also loved their Mediterranean rice. Baklava was amazing. Sat outside on their patio which was lovely and the service was excellent. Will def be back!

    I’ve been coming to this location for over 5 years now and it’s one of my favorite Mediterranean food spots. The food is always served fresh and is so good. I usually get the chicken kabob platter or filet minon and it’s always so flavorful. This time we came after a workout and it’s the perfect meal. The desserts are also so good. My favorite is their rice pudding.
