" I've eaten at many Mediterranean restaurants, and I must say that Pom & Olive stands out for its authenticity. The ingredients taste fresh, and you can tell they take pride in their cooking. I ordered the beef koobideh, which was smoky and tender, and we also tried the dolmades, which were a delightful surprise! The service was a bit slow at first, but our server was friendly and attentive once the food was out. The atmosphere was casual and comfortable. I will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations going into Pom & Olive based on the reviews, and I wasn’t disappointed. The ambiance is inviting, with lovely Mediterranean decor. We ordered a mix of appetizers, including the hummus and baba ganoush, which were both fantastic. The main dishes, particularly the lamb shank, were flavorful and well-cooked. The prices are reasonable for the quality. My only complaint was that the service slowed down a bit as the restaurant filled up, but overall, it was a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a unique dining experience here. The customer service was excellent; everyone was attentive and friendly. I loved the lively vibe of the restaurant. The taste of the food was a perfect blend of authentic Mediterranean flavors I couldn't get enough of, especially the hummus and flatbread! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden gem! Every dish I have tried has been incredible. The falafel wraps are crispy and flavorful, and the appetizers are a must-try. Lovely service overall, though they got busy, and our main course took longer than expected. However, the staff is responsive and eager to help, and I love how they really care about your dining experience. If you're looking for authentic Mediterranean flavors, this is the place to be! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pom & Olive has become my go-to place for Mediterranean food. The variety on the menu is impressive, and everything I've tried has been nice. The staff is warm and makes you feel right at home. The Koobideh is my favorite; it's perfectly seasoned. I also love their ginger lemonade—it’s refreshing! Only downside was that it can get a bit busy, and once, I had to wait for my dessert a little longer than expected, but it was worth it. Highly recommend for anyone looking for delicious Mediterranean food! You won’t regret it. " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated a special occasion at Pom & Olive, and it was the right choice! The ambiance was intimate and cozy, making it perfect for our dinner. The food was unbelievably delicious, every dish was bursting with flavor, particularly the lamb chops! I also loved the service; everyone was so friendly and accommodating. It was a bit on the pricier side, but the quality justifies it. A fantastic dining experience; I’m already planning my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I found Pom & Olive through a friend's recommendation, and what a delight! The food was fresh with authentic flavors. The garlic sauce was a perfect touch. I noticed the server being a bit slow, but they were incredibly friendly, which made up for the wait. I would still recommend it to others. " (*Curated Review*)
