★★★★★ 5.0 Dorothy Bobo · Mar 2026

What a wonderful Italian Restaurant! Plenty of parking with outdoor seating. Nice interior, friendly guy at the register. Ordered the Chicken Milano to go. It came with garlic bread and a generous helping of chicken, mushrooms, fettuccine and Alfredo sauce. Will definitely be back with the family.

The Black Olive is hands-down my favorite restaurant. I’ve never had a bad experience here, and the food is consistently amazing. The Chicken Milano with gluten-free pasta is incredible—rich, flavorful, and you’d never know the pasta is gluten free. It’s my go-to every single time. And don’t even get me started on the gluten-free carrot cake… it’s one of the best desserts I’ve ever had, gluten free or not. As someone who needs gluten-free options, it means so much to have a restaurant that not only offers them, but does them right. The atmosphere is cozy, the service is always wonderful, and the food keeps me coming back again and again. If you haven’t eaten here yet, you’re missing out. Total gem. 🍝🥕🍰

This was our first time here, our server was Joshua and is an excellent server! Never had to worry about empty cups. Was attentive but not over bearing and overall was great! We have been hearing good things about the Black Olive and my only regret is not trying it sooner than today. We had an order of garlic knots to start with, they are more like little garlic butter bombs but they are delicious and their marinara sauce they serve with it is tangy and delicious as well. I had the chicken Alfredo and my husband had the spicy Bowtie pasta. We split an order of tiramisu and it was the most decadent tiramisu I’ve ever had so far!! Everything came out fast, hot, and delicious! The pasta was served with bread and butter. We have ate the garlic knots at the restaurant and a few bites or our pa

The staff was great. The food was awesome. The pasta nachos, 😳🥰 was so good!!! Could make a meal just on those. The artichoke angel hair pasta was so fresh tasting. The Philly Mexican steak sandwich was good. Included house made chips, just needed salt. The blueberry basil sangria was really good, but could have been a bit larger for the price. Would come back when in town.

First time diner at The Black Olive. The food was plentiful and delicious. Our server, Cody, was attentive, very nice, and spot on! I had the shrimp scampi, and my BF had a dish he created (pasta with pesto sauce and heaped with calamari), and we shared a plate of cheese stuffed garlic knots. All were tasty. Definitely recommend.
