Just amazing! The pitas, the hummus, the sauces, the chicken. It’s all so good. Their service is so nice and friendly, the woman at the register is very kind and makes sure you have everything you need. The portions are huge! And very fair pricing. This is definitely my new favorite Mediterranean place, it’s been hard finding a really good one, but Olives wins!

Solid place. The place was bright and clean. Order at the counter. The menu is a little bit lengthy and confusing. The chicken breast plate was made to order and served hot. Plenty of food. The chicken was tender, with decent flavor. The fresh onion and tomato were a nice touch. The rice was moist with a pleasant flavor. Disappointed that they do not serve soup in the summer. The salad dressing and hummus both seem to be homemade and are above average in quality and taste. This was a good, quick meal at a decent price. I would go back.

I visited Olives Mediterranean Grill for the first time recently, and it was delicious! The environment is super casual, the staff is very friendly and helpful, and their food is very fresh and flavorful. I ordered the Greek Salad with Falafel and it did not disappoint. You’ll definitely want to check out this spot!

They’re so nice. They have the most flavorful well cooked food. It’s the best hummus and chicken shawarma I’ve found in the valley thus far.

Olives is a really great spot for a quick Mediterranean meal. This space is very casual and large, lots of sitting options. I enjoyed the chicken and steak platter. It was piled high with flavorful rice. I also added on a Greek salad (two of us were eating). I really loved all of the sauces available. Ash was very pleasant and helpful.

This Family Run Cafe serves Traditional Mediteranian Dishes. Everything is made to order; added species with Tahini and Tzatziki dips. Large Greek Salad and Pita. Delivered to my booth w a Warm Smile. Anything they serve is Going to be OMG. Highly Recommended by Jeffrey M a.k.a. JazzyJeff

Delicious. Here for work and decided to stop and have some Mediterranean. Couldn't have picked a better place. The chicken was seasoned so well, the salad was fresh. Ordered a side of rice and it was a big portion. Coworker ordered the veggie plate and the falafel was crunchy, great flavor and filling! Customer service was excellent. The girl was helpful and explained the sauces they had of course had to get some garlic sauce. Definitely will come back when in town.

This place is wonderful! You order at the counter and they bring you your food. The kitchen and restaurant are immaculately clean, spacious seating and colorful decor. The menu is huge and easy to read. We had a large hummus that came with two piping hot pieces of pita. We then had a falafel sandwich with rice. It was fantastic!! We also had a kale and quinoa salad with grilled chicken. The portion was large and the presentation was colorful. It tasted wonderful and the chicken was moist and tender. We were thrilled with this restaurant and will definitely be back!!

Stopped in on Saturday around 2pm with some friends to grab a bite while running errands. It's a fast-casual place. We weren't sure what to split, and they gave us great advice! We were given a good option on what to split, and it was delicious!! It tasted authentic, and it seemed like such an easy place to grab food. I would definitely make this my place to grab takeout on busy nights!

The gyro was very tasty. The pita bread is not authentic pita bread, tastes like bread/ pizza dough baked. Need to improve on the pita or don't serve it.

Great Mediterranean restaurant and the chicken plate was delicious. It is served with Rice, Pita and Tzatziki. The Pita was soft, warm and very tasty. Would definitely return to try more of the dishes.

Excellent food and great service....everything was very tasty as we had the chicken and falafel pitas as well as the Greek salad. All was done perfect and we liked the portion size as it was a filling meal. The Greek salad had an amazing tasting dressing as something made it a little different from other places. The cashier was very friendly and helpful as well. Overall we will definitely return.

This place is so good! A lot of fresh and healthy options, all packed with flavor and spice. I got the kale and quinoa salad which was packed with toppings and chicken. They are not shy with their portions, especially when it comes to the meat. All their sauces are delicious, and the fries were nice and crispy. Honestly, I kind of love the paper plates too because it's cleaner to me. The customer service is always amazing too. You should definitely stop by for some lunch and give this place a try.

Restaurant was sparkling clean. Pizza and chicken Caesar salad were delicious, service was kind and friendly. Not much ambiance but they do a brisk takeout business. We didn't have the shawarma but the sandwiches looked delicious and people around us were eating them enthusiastically. Highly recommend.

We stopped in tonight to give Olives Mediterranean Grill a try. We noticed it when we stopped in at Habit Grill next door last week. We tried the Falafel Pita combo with fries & a drink. We also ordered the Falafel & Hummus Plate. Both were very good. They were freshly made, great taste and portion size right on point. It's moderately priced and great customer service. Fast and Friendly, super clean environment. Would recommend to anyone. Family owned, love supporting Mom & Pop places.

Delicious! The servings are huge in today's market. I asked for take out to feed my brother's family. Only $100 to feed six people. And there were leftovers for lunch the next day! The woman who rang me up and expedited the food was lovely and charming!

Please bring back the old Fries, these thin ones are not it i'm sorry! Besides this whole Fries ordeal, Olives is a great place to get a quick bite for lunch/dinner. The entire staff is super friendly and service/food is top tier. Thank you guys again!

I stopped in last night for a to-go order. The hummus, pita, and service were great. The girl at the front desk was very helpful in my ordering. The chicken shawarma was extremely dry. I put the tzatziki sauce on it which was delicious but it just couldn't save it. It was too overcooked! I can't say much about the ambiance because it was a to-go order but the restaurant looked and smelled clean. I will be back but definitely ordering something else.

We decided to finally try Olives and unfortunately, we thought the Gyros we had1-beef 2-chicken was tasteless. Also, more importantly, my wife has been sick due to what believe to be food poisoning! So, if anyone else ate there May 2, 2024 and contracted food poisoning, we feel your pain.

In California we would call this place Bomb.com, in the restaurant industry we would call this as fresh as it gets. Ashureena picked what I ordered because I am a picky foodie from California and I always trust the staff knows what's best. I inhaled every bite and should've ordered the Baklava also but I am trying to watch my sleek, Porsche like figure. I recently moved to AZ and thank goodness this spot is so close to one of my jobs. The food pictured below was so flavorful and delicious, I will definitely be back soon. The music they play is chill, relaxing, and I love the vibe. All of the staff in the building were kind and helpful, a very pleasant experience and lunch. Thank you all!!!

I have passed by this quaint little place several times and finally decided to give this place a try. I decided on a chicken shawarma pita with a side of Tzatziki sauce. It seemed portable enough to eat;while driving home. I was also given a side of their garlic sauce. I have to say this is one of the best pitas I have ever tasted. The pita was so fresh, soft and pliable. The chicken was seasoned very well and their splice blend they used it was very warm. The spices they used were similar to a Chinese 5spice blend, which I really love. Their homemade sauces were really amazing they had body to them. I find that a lot of sauces are pretty watery and runny; this was not the case. I see they make a focaccia too! I can't wait to try one of theirs... I will definitely be back. I highly recommend this spot.

Ordered curbside and they didn't bring it out to me or even confirm the order completed on the app. The pita was one of the worst I have had and expensive.

This place is the BOMBBB. Everything perfectly seasoned and there is so much flavor. Falafels are crispy and perfectly made. I got the vegetarian plate and it is amazing. I do wish the portion size was slightly larger for the price, but even so, I'm very happy. The gentlemen working there are polite. I would like to add that I would come here more often if they had a gluten free pita option. That would bring in many more people. Don't forget us gluten free people PLEASE Update: I really wish they would take customer feedback. The portion sizes are still small for the price. I paid $14+tax for falafels and hummus and there was barely any hummus. Still no gluten free pita . Super friendly and fresh food. But I may change my review to 3 star.

Restaurant was clean. Greek salad - excellent (veggies all had great flavor and the dressing was the best part. Had the chicken plate (marinated breast meat chunks). The flavors were great but the chicken was dry and tough. I'll go back her again, but will something than the chicken. I might even try chicken shawarma to see if its less dry otherwise will try gyro plate.

Found this place on Yelp, had good reviews so I tried it today. Portions are massive and the food was excellent. The inside of the place was very clean and my food came out in a reasonable time.

Wahhh, based on the reviews, I really really wanted to love this spot more! I have a local Greek spot in my neighborhood that I visit weekly so I had some high expectations going in. The service was friendly and pretty quick but I was the only person in there for most of the wait. I got the grilled chicken plate which came with rice, 2 very sad looking tomato slices, and some red onions. It comes with a side of tzatziki and warm pita which were both great! Thank goodness for the sauce because the dish definitely needs it. I added on a small Greek salad, all totaling to $15, and it just didn't knock my socks off. It was pretty basic! The Greek salad dressing was delicious and seems like they do make it in house, which is a plus! :) I prefer crumbled feta because the two little cubes just didn't hit every bite. I also ordered some chicken tenders for my son and they looked even worse quality than the freezer tenders that I buy at the grocery store but hey, he ate them! All in all, I've had tastier fast casual Mediterranean food but if you're in the area and in need of a healthy food option, it is a decent one!

Alway hit this up when in area. Good value food is always good. My go to is the steak pita with garlic sauce instead of taziki.

Oh man I wish I had better things to say but unfortunately this place has gone downhill. Used to be so delicious and honestly we dined here almost every week pre-Covid, however we have been back twice recently and it has completely changed. Food quality is way down and unfortunately the taste is not as good. Sad to say it but don't know that we will be back...

The food was just meh. The salad was drowning in dressing. And my friend what had the hummus said it was not good.

Olives is a good little Mediterranean restaurant. We tried them for take out and were impressed with their portion sizes and prices. The food is flavorful. I'd definitely order from them again.

Was recommended to try Olives by a co-worker as it is one of their favorite spots for Mediterranean food. I enjoyed my lunch (gyro plate) and the staff were friendly. Wouldn't say it is the best Mediterranean food I've ever had but it is a solid option if you're in the mood. Will be going back at some point to try other menu items!

A hidden gem. Great food. Fast. I will priced. Friendly. Awesome. Came in here to get some work done while my kid was at band practice. Had the gyro plate and salad. Will be back a lot. This is the kind of place I can come and bring my laptop get some work done and enjoy a really nice meal without feeling rushed.

Amazing to say the least! Service is great and the food is prepared quickly. It's a large space with plenty of seating to choose from. The Greek Salad is the perfect combination of flavors and the dressing is delicious. The classic hummus was a delight with the fried pita chips, and while I personally enjoy my beef shawarma to be kinda sauce-y, theirs is not however it's still delicious. The garlic sauce is just soooo good, I can't get enough of it. It's so sweet and also sharp tasting. It's the perfect compliment to the beef shawarma. The rice could have used a little bit more flavor in my opinion. But Overall definitely 5 stars and I look forward to go back often!

Reasonable price. Quick service. Delicious lunch! We had a chicken pita and a gyro...and topped it off with a pistachio baklava. They also had baklava with walnuts. This would become a regular destination if we lived nearby. Yum!

My pregnant wife and I went and it was very warm inside. After eating our food we left and my wife had a high heart rate for the rest of the night from being so hot in there. I broke my fast with a chicken salad and must've gotten a ecoli food poisoning. I have the runs now for almost 2 days. Food is good but not worth dripping sweat as we were eating and the food poisoning.

I'm a fan of Greek and Mediterranean food which is probably why I rated this a little more thoroughly than I typically do. Also, I'm going to approach this against a more authentic Greek place. Went with the chicken shawarma and hummus plate so let's break it down: Chicken - 3.8/5 - A little salty but no overbearing. Portion size was great. Overall flavor is pretty good. It gets the job done but there is something lacking and I can't figure it out. Pita - 2.5/5 - I love pita bread and this bread definitely is not made from scratch. This is what made me give a 3 versus a 4 star rating. Sauce - 3.3/5 - It gets the job done. I am assuming this is a garlic sauce which is what it tasted like. On point for the feel of a chain like food place, nothing spectacular but not bad either. Vegetables- 2/5 - These are the lowest cost items to add to a plate. Two slices of cucumber and one slice of tomato. Not weighing this in to the overall too much but come on. This is a whole plate versus a pita wrap. Was a little disappointed that I had to pay for hot sauce. This isn't usually the case when I go to these places. This place just didn't hit the mark for me. Compared to your average Pita Jungle, which I only ate when I got it for free, I'd say this place would be on par when comparing those two. Overall price point, I feel like this place is very slightly overpriced. Would I go again? Maybe on discount but even then I'd weigh my options for something else. If you just want to deal with that craving for Greek and Mediterranean right away, it wouldn't hurt to try it out for yourself.

Olives has really got good food. The dipping sauces and dressing is made in house and so good. The Falafels are light and airy and not heavy. We each had a salad and plenty of food to take home . I love their Blackberry Jasmine Green Ice Tea. So refreshing. The staff is helpful and attentive. So glad I found this restaurant. Have been in for lunch twice in one week. Will be trying vegetarian platter soon.

Terrific experience ordering online for delivery. Super fast! Even at lunch time. The website is easy to navigate, clear, fast, and does not force one to create an account. The process was possible the smoothest order I've ever placed. Super friendly and fast delivery guy dropped it over 10 minutes earlier than expected. I will be ordering again for sure and possible going in person.

Hubs has been here before; this was my first visit. We came for lunch ~ he got a gyro salad: big plate of salad greens & gyro meat, topped with a yummy tziki sauce. I got a chicken gyro - awesome, seasoned grilled chicken on a warm fluffy pita, with onion & tomato slices & tziki sauce. Accompanied the meal with a blackberry jasmine tea ~ perfect! Might be my first visit - but it certainly won't be my last!!
