Olive Bar & Kitchen

Dining at Olive Bar & Kitchen in Mehrauli is nothing short of an artistic culinary experience. This season’s vegetarian showcase features stunning plates that turn humble ingredients into stars. Each creation, paired with airy interiors and rustic tables, makes the whole affair feel thoughtfully elevated yet deeply inviting. A couple of items that we had a chance to try are as follows: 1. Purple Mulberry Potato and Turnip Vibrant mulberry potatoes and tender turnip slices come together in a dish that’s as colorful as it is comforting. The chef’s plating lifts root vegetables into center stage, layering visually arresting hues with delicate, earthy notes. 2. Aubergine and Piementios Eggplant reigns here, roasted and paired with piementios, likely Spanish-inspired peppers. Every bite balances smoky, creamy, and sweet undertones, with a beautiful garnish that brings out Mediterranean warmth. 3. Seaweed and Avocado Fresh avocado joins marinated seaweed for a dish that is both creamy and briny—an appetizing start that feels clean and full of life. There’s a vibrancy from hidden citrus or greens that perks up every taste bud. 4. Mango and Brie The surprising duo of ripe mango and silky brie cheese arrives as a gentle fusion—whether in a salad or dessert, it’s playful, lush, and elegantly sweet. It’s the kind of flavor marriage that lingers pleasantly, making each bite memorable. Olive thrives on taking seasonal produce and pampering it with modern European flair, and the experience here is both soulful and sophisticated. Every dish is plated with personality, while the light-filled ambiance welcomes slow, lingering meals. Its a must try restaurant on the aisles of Mehrauli.

Great food, great live music, good price, but mediocre service. The First Lady who gave us the menu didn’t want to work here, when we asked about something on the menu, she’s like, we don’t have it and then left and disappeared. Then we had a guy who came to help us order after 30 mins. He is great when he shows up. Then, we waited a long time until our food arrive and after we finish the meal, another lady came to take our dessert order, but it turned out she didn’t tell anyone about it. Later, the guy waiter had to come back to take the order again. And our dessert came out immediately. We ended up spending 150 mins at this restaurant. BTW, the dinner service doesn’t start in until 7:30PM on a Tuesday night. The singer was great though, and so is the goat shank, seafood risotto and tea and biscuit sundae. Our bill was around 10,000 rupees for two.

Margherita pizza is normal Aglio pasta is great Tartufungo risotto is pretty awesome Mezze non vegi classic(platter) was impressed but price is INR3050.00 only for this The juices tasted healthy, but not very appetizing. The tables were close together, which was a bit uncomfortable. The overall atmosphere was good, but the prices were a bit expensive.

We went for dinner. The service was really good and fast. We ordered gluten and lactose free dishes. There were quite less options under that category but they tasted nice. The ambience was perfect for dinner with candle lights. The music or live music would have been better.

Amazing ambience and a plethora of specially curated dishes. The service is superb and the staff is courteous and prompt. We went over a weekend so there a lot & lot of crowd. The staff were on their toes, smiling and attending to the guests. Would suggest all to go on a weekday. The drinks were nice and the food portions are good too. We ordered a veg mezze 🫒 platter and a pizza. The platter was good but the pizza was amazing. Thin crust with juicy tomatoes. Mocktails are amazing too Must visit Located almost opposite to Qutub Minar

Olive is a fantastic Mediterranean restaurant with an absolutely stunning vibe. The decor is beautiful, and both the garden and indoor seating areas are equally charming. It’s the kind of place where you’d want to linger. Highly recommend making a reservation, as it tends to stay busy. The food and drinks were top-notch, especially the mezze platter, which is a must-try. A perfect spot for a special meal or a relaxed evening out.

Overall decent food experience here. We went for a team party and the service and food was not upto the standards we would expect from a restaurant like this. Waiter didn't have the knowledge of the menu.

The high price is for the Ambiance and of course curated dishes. But if you go on weekends then the service is in confusion. So go on a week day to enjoy the service also. The drinks were nice. But the food portions are small so order accordingly. I ordered a Chicken soup which was too pungent to drink …. Had to leave it. The pasta was nice and also the chicken dish. A place for a one time visit.
