Olive Bar & Kitchen

Great atmosphere, lively but quiet at the same time that gives a feeling of privacy and community together which is tough balance to achieve. Colonial style building and the pebble stones floor created a god vibe. Messe non veg platter was delicious especially the couscous, sour cream and baba Ghanoush. Pizza had the thinnest crust ever but toppings were average. Service was little slow , was tough to catch attention of servers. Overall a good serene place to visit and enjoy fine Italian and Mediterranean cuisine

Average-good food, however overpriced. Dont sit outdoors. Pizza - Great, tastes really good. aglio e olio - Also very good, a bit more oil than I prefer. The worst part of my experience was the outdoor seating. Throughout the lunch there were some dropping falling from the tree above. These droppings will fall on your table, your food, and worst of all, on YOU. I dont know how a 22 year old restaurant hasnt implemented a solution for this. Any form of cover over the table or atleast the food they are serving would have been sufficient. Overall, food is good but overpriced, and if you decide to come here, DO NOT SIT OUTSIDE.

Fantabulous experience.... In such a busy place (qutub minar), this place sits in serene calm & beautiful ambiance. The complex is full of high end designers (incl Sabyasachi). It was a great experience

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.

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.

Olive Bar & Kitchen is not an ordinary restaurant, and it is certainly not inexpensive. This is a place for true food lovers — for those who come to experience flavors, textures, and atmosphere. It is important to understand that this is not an Indian cuisine restaurant. Some visitors coming to India might expect local dishes, and here you won’t find traditional Indian food. But that is not a drawback — it is simply a restaurant clearly focused on refined European and Mediterranean cuisine. The seafood selection is impressive, especially considering that high-quality seafood is not always easy to find. The presentation of dishes is elegant and thoughtful. Service is attentive, professional, and warm without being intrusive. To be honest, meat dishes are good, but not necessarily the strongest point of the kitchen. However, everything else — the salads, small plates, flavors, and overall execution — is excellent. The atmosphere is what truly elevates this place: live romantic music, candles, soft lighting, fire elements — everything creates a perfect setting for a special evening. It is an ideal venue for a romantic dinner or celebration. A small recommendation for future guests: don’t focus only on large main courses. Order several smaller plates and salads to share — this allows you to explore more flavors and enjoy the experience fully. A beautiful evening, exceptional ambiance, refined cuisine. Five stars.

My recent sojourn at Olive Bar was an experience that married gastronomic finesse with gracious hospitality in a manner most memorable. The coffee, robust yet nuanced, arrived as an aromatic prelude to what would unfold as an evening of considerable culinary satisfaction. The Romano All Veg pizza was executed with commendable precision — its crust impeccably baked, achieving that elusive equilibrium between crispness and chew, while the medley of toppings rested upon it in harmonious proportion. What, however, distinguished the evening from the merely enjoyable to the truly exceptional was the establishment’s attentive accommodation of a special birthday request. Upon the cheesecake we had ordered, the staff arranged candles and elegantly inscribed “Happy Birthday,” transforming a simple dessert into a tableau of celebration. When the lights were gently dimmed as the candle was lit, the ambience acquired a soft, almost theatrical warmth — a moment of understated splendour that rendered the occasion deeply special for the celebrant. It would be remiss of me not to mention the sole blemish on an otherwise resplendent experience: the initial delay in service. The interval before someone approached our table to take our order was longer than one might reasonably anticipate. Yet, this was but a minor infelicity in an evening otherwise marked by excellence. In sum, Olive Bar delivers not merely a meal, but an experience — one that justifies its price point with conviction and, indeed, exceeds expectation.

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.
