" What a unique dining experience! At first, I was hesitant because it is located in a liquor store, but The Green Olive absolutely delivered! The vegetarian platter was fantastic; the falafel was crispy, and the tabbouleh had the right balance of herbs. The servers were friendly and provided prompt service. A delightful hidden gem that I am definitely coming back to! " (*Curated Review*)

" An unexpected little find. The food at The Green Olive is surprisingly good, especially considering it’s in a liquor store. I tried their lamb and kofta, and they were both quite flavorful. The place was clean, which added to the overall experience. Definitely a restaurant that deserves another visit soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Sadly, my experience at The Green Olive was not what I expected. The food was mediocre at best, lacking the authentic Mediterranean flavors I was hoping for. The tzatziki was bland, and the pita wasn't fresh. While the place is clean and the environment welcoming, the food didn’t cut it for me. I regret not trying something different. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came for the hype but left feeling unsatisfied. The lamb I ordered was overcooked and dry, and the hummus tasted stale. Though the service was good, the food itself fell short of the expectations set by reviews. I don’t think I’ll be returning anytime soon, unfortunately. " (*Curated Review*)

" Okay, let's be real, it’s in a liquor store, and I had my doubts. But from the moment I walked in, I was greeted with the warmest vibe. I ordered the falafel wrap, and it was crunchy, tasty, and generously filled. The service was quick, and I really enjoyed eating it there. Not the most elegant setting, but the food was solid enough to keep me happy. I'll be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at The Green Olive was just okay. While it’s marketed as Mediterranean cuisine, I found the flavors to be somewhat watered down. The dolmas were not particularly memorable, and I was a bit disappointed with the portion sizes for the price. I appreciate that it’s in a convenient location, but I expected more from the flavors. I may not return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was introduced to The Green Olive by a friend, and I have to say, it was a delightful surprise! The flavors remind me of meals I’ve had in Greece. I ordered the vegetarian platter and was not disappointed. The falafel was crispy and the tabbouleh was fresh and colorful. The dining setup is very casual—ideal for a quick lunch. I can't recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)
