The Black Olive

Parking is somewhat difficult because of the upscale neighborhoods location. The inside is historical and welcoming. Bigger than it really look. Customer service, bartender and food is surely an A+++ the food is tasty you will taste it on your taste buds very unique flavors. Menu is filled of many ear catching dishes. Dessert was great also.. a must try!

The last time we ate here was about 15 years ago. We returned tonight for a delicious meal. The lamb chops and scallops were simply superb. The appetizer we shared was tasty but on the smaller side. It was a savory Greek bread pudding. I am giving this restaurant a 4 rather than a 5 for at least two reasons: most of the desserts are $14, even for ice-cream and baklava. Also, a glass of red house wine was $18. This time, we skipped the desserts. These prices seem much too high in comparison with the rest of the food menu.

We had New Years Eve dinner there last night.. The bartender made us some amazing drinks. The hostess was so nice and accommodating. The waitstaff was welcoming and checked on us frequently. The owner was amazing and made sure that we were enjoying every aspect of the experience. Now to the food. Every thing that we ordered was absolutely delicious. I can not wait to go back

Came here with a large party for my father’s birthday, and the experience was outstanding. We started with the dip medley and meatballs—both full of flavor without being too heavy. Most of our table ordered seafood, and everything was exceptional. I had the rockfish but also tried the Mediterranean sea bass and Dover sol; each dish was cooked perfectly and incredibly fresh.The staff was great. Black Olive is one of my favorite spots to visit whenever I’m in Baltimore. Highly recommended

My family has enjoyed many wonderful celebrations at The Black Olive in the last 10 years. Our recent experience was just a wonderful - we were seated in the wine cellar!! It was very special. The food was outstanding, particularly the fish dishes, although the entree options were fewer than normal since it was during Baltimore Restaurant Week. The good part was the menu made it easy to select an app, an entree and a dessert at a good price. Some of the appetizers were smaller portions than their usual size but still very nice. The staff was charming and the cellar cozy! The owner said hello at the end of our evening and it was truly a genuine conversation about family and food - all the love!
