    Everything about Olive was exceptional, from the greeting at the door and the relaxed yet knowledgeable service, to the amazing drinks and very reasonable bill at the end of the night. But as wonderful as everything else was, the star was the food. Every single element of every dish was exceptional. The nuts were toasted to perfection, the sauces and dressings were full of interesting delicious flavours beautifully balanced, the pastry was buttery, crisp and flaky. We loved the whipped hummus, the fried zucchini, the chicken sando, the tomato salad with citrus dressing, the gnocchi with pork ragout and the chicken with pilaff were all so good. The olive oil ice cream desert was mind blowing. The honey, the nuts, the pastry and the ice cream were all beautiful and the way they were put together showed such skill. Honestly there was no miss. The chef and his team are absolutely at the top of their game. The whole experience was a pleasure and I hope Olive had every success

    Standouts were the bread with hummus and the zucchini chips. Chicken dish was nice, but we were expecting a bit more spice. The lamb was tasty and tender. Restaurant was full, so the noise level was up there. We will return.

    Very nice find. Enjoyed the fried feta cheese, Portuguese chicken and the sorbet. They acknowledge that there was a bit of a problem with service, kudos to them! Despite that have a lovely experience and great food.

    Great modern take on Mediterranean food. Share and bigger plates with a good selection and plenty for a vegetarian. Excellent wine list.

    We chose the "Feed Me" option and it didn't fail to impress. A variety of flavours and meats and vegetables. Very impressive.
