Great diner fare, comfortable dining room and the breakfast server/waitress is so caring, attentive and friendly.

For the second time i thought i would give this place another try, not happy at all yuck, i ordered a cheese burger like last time mistake, you gyes always put the tomatoes lettuce, and pickles under the bun, the bun was so watery and nasty, i through the bottom bun away, you need to stop doing that, and the lentil soup what a joke, that stuff was dumped out of a can from krogers, no taste, nothing like the real lentil soup.?

A great place for any meal at a reasonable price. They've got a huge menu but the club sandwich is probably the best in town. The French fries are always perfect!

Excellent food and staff. A hidden gem! Spur of the moment dining experience that we were very pleased with. At first we were a bit reluctant, because the restaurant was closing in 20 minutes. We popped in and they were more than happy to serve us. Mazen and Rajaa were very friendly and extremely accommodating. We ordered the saganaki for starters which was perfect. The food was fresh, hot, and deliciously plated. Everything was served quickly. The stuffed grape leaves, Taziki sauce and the Greek dressing are all fresh and made in house. All amazing! We ordered the Gyro platters which were very flavorful with generous portions. If you haven't eaten here, you definitely need to go, and will not be disappointed or leave hungry! All in all a great dining experience and reasonably priced.

Food was good, but I ordered a hummus appetizer expecting a small dish of hummus and some pita bread. Instead I got this little tub (same size they put the ranch dressing in for my salad). No pita. $6.49 for 2 spoons of hummus.

We love the expansive menu and great service here. Our favorites are the salads although sometimes it does seem like they are skimpy on toppings and we didn't see the salmon as an option for salad anymore.

Good food Friendly waitresses

Need to do better— my boyfriend and I did carry out. Added a couple extra items on a sandwich, he went to pick up, brought back home and we found his sandwich was made incorrectly the extras were not added and the reductions were still present in his sandwich... Mine was made correctly, but very fat sliced onion pieces abs tomato ends that should not have been there. My boyfriend called to let the restaurant know as they were still open before close. Someone answered and said they will check to see if another one can be made as they closed their register. My boyfriend left with my phone because he was on hold abs just wanted to head up. I am not sure what happened after that but he came back upset that the doors were locked on him, they hung up on him with no resolution, and the kitchen staff were hiding from being seen. This situation could’ve been handled way better.*** update: my boyfriend went for a visit the next day. He spoke to the owner. Not only did she make sure his food was made correctly, but she wanted to hear his whole experience, sincerely apologized, let go one of the kitchen persons from the incident the night before who should have did the right thing then and NOT close down early, then gave him a gift card for a future visit.

Took my grandson here, he had breakfast, I had spinach pie and Greek salad... which I recommend to anyone!! Both were very tasty. Alot of restaurants must not rinse their spinach because I crunch dirt...But Red Olive is an exception, no dirt here!! I love that they put garbanzo beans their Greek salad too. Place is clean, waitresses friendly. You can't go wrong here.

It’s so good and delicious ??
