Green Olive Restaurant

Amazing place for Turkish food! 🇹🇷 The food is fresh, flavorful, and very authentic. Plenty of delicious Turkish and Mediterranean dishes to choose from — kebabs, shawarma, hummus, lentil soup, and more. Portions are generous and everything tastes homemade. The atmosphere is cozy and the staff is friendly and welcoming. If you’re looking for real Turkish flavors in Colombia, this place is a must-try!

Attractive place. Parking easy on weekend but may be rough when the statehouse is in session. Our server was great. Quick, big portions, fair price at lunch but higher at night. Turkish leaning but has all the classic Mediterranean dishes. Very good lentil soup and chicken/veggie soup. Very hot delicious fresh bread. Hummus was a thicker coarser style and served cold, not my preference. Excellent gyro meat and lamb Schwarma. Kababs just ok. Veggies were cooked well. Rice a little plain. Sweet tea very good.

Very quiet on a Wednesday evening. I've read some comments about the atmosphere, it is not fancy but I am absolutely fine with that. Our server David was efficient and very courteous. The food is typical Mediterranean, but that is why we go to Green Olive. In my opinion, their Damascus bread is better than any I have ever tasted elsewhere, a bit chewier and thicker than most. The appetizer platter was great. I felt the portions were generous (we had the spicy chicken curry over rice and the chicken tips over rice). Shepherd salad could use a bit more flavor, but it was okay. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience.

Green Olive is a gem near USC! The food is incredibly tasty, delicious, and fresh. We tried both the chicken and lamb shawarma platters, and they were fantastic. The salads were crisp and flavorful, complementing the meats perfectly. Plus, everything is very affordable, making it a great spot for a quick, satisfying Mediterranean meal. They have pizza so I’ll be back! They also have gluten free and vegan options.

Had a friend tell me about the Green Olive, never been so tried it out on a date night. Not impressed at all!!! It was cute upon entrance, was seated quickly and that was it. I ordered calamari and it looked like onion rings and not good ones. There was no taste and not even appeal to them. Sent them back immediately! I also ordered chicken parmesan as I'm on a quest for the Best Chicken Parm in the city!!! Anyone know a place, let me know!!! It also was low on the look and taste. Not sure how the chicken was prepared, but I don't think it was even fried. I didn't want to send that back, but left most on the plate. Hubby ordered greek salad and chicken soup with coleslaw and a side of fries. The soup and fries were the best items on our table. Will not be eating there again.
