The Olive Mediterranean Grill and Lounge

This place is truly a hidden gem! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by the vibe — the lighting, the music, the setup, everything came together perfectly to create a calm yet vibrant atmosphere. You can feel the intention behind every detail. The hookah was top-tier: smooth pulls, great flavor selection, and expertly packed. It’s clear they take pride in quality and customer experience. What really sets this lounge apart, though, is the unique fusion of a chill hookah spot, meditation-inspired ambiance, and great food — a rare combo that works so well here. Whether you’re looking to relax, connect with friends, or just unwind in a beautiful space, this lounge hits every mark. Definitely a 5-star experience, and I’ll be back for sur

Warning to first time goer to this restaurant, the restaurant side is mainly for hooka smoking, the server would most probably ignore you doesn’t matter how long you are inside the restaurant waiting to be seated. It’s basically my experience together with my friend, before my other friends arrived and brought us to the main lounge where they had nice service, served us food and drinks. At around 10pm the belly dancer came in with live music, and it was wonderful! In general, it was a nice experience and good food. Despite of that, being a non smoker, I don’t think I’ll be back there soon.

I love this place. The celebrated my birthday party there and we all had such a great time. They provided us with a belly dancer, the food was great the service and communication was on point. Couldn't ask for a better birthday celebration . Thank you so much for everything. I will definitely be back

My type of vibes. There was never a dull moment. When the live band took a little break the belly dancer would perform. The food / drinks were amazing. I wish I would have gotten our server name because he was awesome. 10/10 I recommend.

I happened upon this restaurant while in town for business. Now it is a must visit every time I’m in town. The garlic sauce is to die for. Make sure to get it with the chicken shawarma. Food is so good and service is always friendly and welcoming.

The restaurant was great with delicious food and generous portions. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Service was fast and friendly. A perfect spot in Las Vegas to relax, enjoy good vibes, and have a satisfying meal without breaking the bank. Highly recommended!

Drinks $8 during happy hour/food under $20. Happy Hour specials were good (especially the "tapas"), we had the hummus with pita chips to start and split the Italian sandwich. Food was freshly made and tasted great. Staff here is very friendly and was eager to answer our questions. We're not smokers so the lounge was out for us but there was a pleasant smell to the main room.

I completely love this place. The people and service are the best and the food, omg it's phenomenal. I love ordering their mixed meat plate or their chicken fingers (yup, chicken fingers. Don't judge until you try it! Because I also judged my friend for ordering chicken fingers at a Mediterranean restaurant but once I tried it, the chicken fingers were perfectly breaded, crisp and the fries are the best fries I've ever had!). I love going for their happy hour, which is at the most convenient times and the menu for it is the best I've seen compared to other hookah lounges. The music is always great and the fact that they have performers all the time is amazing!

My friends and I had a BLAST here! Coolest hookah lounge I've ever been to. We had 2 rounds of hookah. The guava mint was my favorite combo. The food was incredible! We got the sampler, mozzarella sticks, grilled cheese and more. All of it was 5 stars easy! Kawika was our server and he was so patient with our large group. We were all over the place with conversations and wanting food at different times. He was excellent and so nice to us. Great atmosphere for large groups, intimate date night or even solo. Plenty of tables to accommodate all. Loved the live music! I will definitely be back and will tell all my friends about this place!

Okay so we brought a large group here and they Knocked it Outta da Park!!! First rate lounge very open and comfortable. We even had the whole Cigar section to ourselves! Service was also top rate ! Drinks, Hookah, Food all very attended to and room was kept immaculate! When the food came out I was very impressed! I had no idea that this little Hookah lounge would have such great food! The Dolma were my favorite but the Wings and Hummus and well everything was great! Highly Recommend you try them out!

Amazing ambience! The food is very well reasonably priced and also absolutely delicious! We've been here quite a few times and every night we've been, the entertainment is top notch! Barry Black and the band is incredible! They definitely create the perfect "date night" vibe! I highly recommend this place.

I came here late last month for a birthday hang out with my coworkers on a Saturday evening. Such a Hidden local gem near place about 6 minutes away. Once you arrive on the outside it looks likes like just an ordinary establishment. But once you get inside and immediately make that sharp left as the entrance to the entertainment side for the music is very subtle. Don't keep going straight as it will lead you to the cigar lounge full of adult men. Once you are inside you feel like you just went down the rabbit hole which felt like the vibe just flipped. The stage lighting is what kept the whole vibes unsighted of the dated decoration, furniture, and food as Menu was overwhelming with items. You must make reservations in advance and check their website for the entertainment calendar. It was reggae night and there was a belly dancer before and after the band. We ordered a bunch of food and overall, it was not up to par as the live music. Just order the chicken wings...if you just want to munch. I just recommend just eating a good dinner before you come here. So, if you're looking for a local place to just chill with live music with good vibes, drinks, and hookah .. This is it!

Nicki was so nice during our lunch visit. The Olive is know for its Hookah's but since we don't indulge we found lunch time was a clear atmosphere. The Decor is fantastic and very interesting. Delicious!

The lounge side with the couches and Hookah is like taking a trip away for a few hours. My husband and I enjoy coming here for hookah, the kibbeh, and Turkish coffee. It is a relaxing place to spend a few hours midday. Kibbeh is amazing! Service is accommodating, whether it be asking if we need more coals, or drinks. We haven't come at night, but they have a full week listed in their menu for live entertainment.

The Olive is an awesome spot to chill, have great food, listen to great music and watch football! If you like hookah, that's your spot. I don't smoke hookah but the ambiance of the venue is nice and chill. The service is by far amazing and personable..I haven't met a single waitress or waiter who haven't shown love...so you're in good hands. I went for wings and football. I'll just say, the lemon pepper wings were on fire!

I've been coming to the olive for years. It is always a good time. Hookah is great and always a great vibe. Check the calendar to see when Berry Black is going to be performing. He being a great vibe and takes requests later I the night. If his the weekend try to get in before 9pm because it gets packed.

This place is fun for a date night or a group of friends! It's large inside and there many sections to sit. They usually sit the couples in the front near the stage and the rest of the sections are for larger groups. We came on a Sunday night and there was two belly dancers and live music with a singer. Service was very good and suspiciously quick! We ordered chicken wings plate and the half chicken and beef combo and it came out less than five minutes after we ordered it! I'm guessing they had the wings pre-fried and ready because they were not very hot when they came out. Other than that, everything was excellent and we had a great time!

I've alway heard about this place from my neighbors. First time coming to olive was the best experience. Food was so good, very flavourful and the drinks as well. Service is great. My favorite part about this experience was the live music, Mr Barry Black set the mood of the place!

If you're on the hunt for a laid-back spot with killer vibes to chill and catch some live tunes, The Olive is your oasis. My cousin's suggestion, and wow, they nailed it. We've become regulars, lounging in the cozy areas, snacking, sipping drinks, and soaking in the smooth sounds of BBSoul/Barry Black. This band is the real deal. The service? Top-notch. These folks are super friendly and helpful, like a big happy family, and it's infectious. Plus, you'll spot plenty of familiar faces since this place has quite the loyal crowd. And here's a twist: Between the live sets, there's belly dancing entertainment that spices things up and keeps the energy high. Pro tips: The water bottles are on the house (classy move, right?). Arrive early for prime parking and the best seats. While you wait for the band to rock out, the background music is on point and keeps the vibe going.

Good food, music & ambiance. Prices amazing, good quality & various flavors to choose from.

It was a great experience. I loved the ambiance, the waiters were on it and the music was awesome! This goes in the books for great live music and place to hangout for drinks. If u like to do hookah they have that too. The food was really good. I have to had good Mediterranean food in a long time. Lots of parking and no need to wait for a booth/table. Lots of space. They are open late so it's fun to come here for those late night shift workers.

Great spot to come hang with friends. Love the live music and the hookah is good. Server was attentive. Loved the belly dancing show.

This place had the best environment, food, drinks and live music. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to chill and enjoy live music.

Oh wow. I was in a surprise when the Mediterranean combo order arrived. So much food! I thought it would be a plate including a few spoons of the appetizers. The warm, fresh, and thin pita bread was exactly to my liking. We asked our server for spicy margaritas, it was pretty decent size. This place was so lively, with people celebrating and having fun. The lively atmosphere, with people celebrating and enjoying themselves, combined with the band, belly dancer, and DJ, made our night truly enjoyable.

I would never go back here again. Worse hookah lounge in Vegas. The service was trash. They messed up on my order and on top of that drinks were trash.

Amazing food and drinks. Sat in the hookah lounge and it was nice vibe. Definitely recommend for a night out

FOOD Chicken wings and fries*. They have Mediterranean but we wanted something somewhat light. Wings are crispy and flavorable. Fries. Crispy and soft on the inside-- you can tell they are freshly cooked. SERVICE Friendly staff from the hostess and the servers. AMBIANCE It's a lounge that serves hookah. What I love is the atmosphere, great music, and you don't smell like hookah the next day, so great ventilation system. This is our go to hangout spot when we just want to let out hair down and chill. Perfect for great night too.

Nice & Chill spot Service is immaculate Live music Server is attentive Champagne to compliment the Graduate

The place, the service, the food, the drinks,the ambience, the crowd is top class. Don't miss out on this place. Reem & George who served us on ok two different occasions are fantastic. Love this place and will be her more often. Everything in the menu is so authentic.

I like this hookah lounge and bar. Ordered the combo platter and beef and rice. There were 7 of us. We made reservation prior to arrival. We went on a Sunday. Sunday is the most busiest day of the week at this hookah lounge. Sunday is Arabian nights. On a Sunday night, there were belly dancers . They come about two times. We arrived at 930pm and they open until 1am. Regular days they open at 5pm and close at 11am. It gets busier and more people as the late gets later. I would recommend to reserve a table especially for a group on a Sunday. The food was good. The Turkish coffee was good as well. The service was pretty ok. They were guys who are changing the charcoal for our hookah a few times throughout the night. Overall, it was a good experience.

Food & ambiance is great. Service is top tier. Great hookah! Tiramisu is my favorite here!

Great spot! I have have seen many hookah lounges in Vegas and never thought I would enjoy but I was not disappointed. This place has a small restaurant and a large lounge with comfy couches and chairs. The lounge is the spot to be! The evening doesn't start until around 10pm. We had a large party and they will seat you in sections depending on the size of your party. I would make reservations. I would recommend having a party of 4 or larger for the lounge. We went on Sunday and they had live music by Arabians. The guys singing were very engaging and would walk around the lounge getting people to dance and sing. They have belly dancers that were performed and also move around the lounge dancing for parties. Bring some cash if you want to tip them dancing in front of your table. They do not push and will move along if you do not tip. You can order drinks and food off the main menu. They also offer hookah which they have a dedicated team that takes care of just the hookah. If you haven't been I would highly recommend. Can't wait to try more hookah lounges!

This place was a pretty cool Vibe. Loved the music. Food was good service was pretty good as well.

Services is amazing Cuca is delicious and so yummy food lots of options comfortable seating and then they have belly dancers they'll come around music is a little loud so you're not loud music quieter night I'm not sure if they always have music every night

Great food, great ambience, great music. This was a really lovely experience, and definitely would consider this a hidden gem in the off strip scene of Las Vegas. We tried the falafel and beef shawarma and our group was equally impressed with both. Great Fatoush salad as well and rice with hummus and pita are always perfect complimentary sides. We went on Reggae night, which who knew is great for hookah with friends. they have different themed music each night. Hard close at 1am. I would encourage a reservation but they sat us fairly quickly and my group was seven was a walk-in. Really well maintained facility and I would say perfect for parties!

This place gets busy for a reason! Such a good place to catch up over drinks or hookah. They have live entertainment every night from 10PM to closing. They have a variety of different table options with couches, chairs, booths, etc. we went on a Friday night (reggae night) and their performances were great! They also had a belly dancer. Would definitely go back again!

The place located in panda express parking lot plaza. They have live music and good food. The place recommends reservations but also accepts walk in.

Love this spot! Really fun inside, has couches and colorful low lights, live music, hookah, and cocktails! Perfect for a little night out but not too intense. Nice and intimate but also good for if you do feel social and want to meet new people. Staff was all super sweet and the food was good too. :) I'll def be coming back soon!

At The Olive Mediterranean Grill, you will find a dish that is truly a powerhouse of flavors--the Grilled Lamb Kebabs! Tender, juicy lamb marinated to perfection, it's like a culinary action movie in your mouth. The blend of herbs and spices delivers a knockout punch of savory, aromatic goodness with every bite.

This venue is cool and engaging. This is a place to hang out with those that you want to have fun with. Be it a date or just a girls night out. I was struck by the many sofas, they were comfortable and cozy and were everywhere within the venue. I met a group of friends there and of course we settled into a comfortable sofa, very near the stage. The music is eclectic, but every day has a new vibe. I enjoyed the band very much and they were so engaging, the drinks were amazing as well. The food was, of course, authentic, rich, and flavorful. This is a great place and I'll definitely will be back.

This is one of my favorite places in the Vegas where locals love to attend. IYKYK. They have a beautiful and cozy atmosphere with live music performances every night. The food is also delicious particularly the wings and pizza. Also as always great service from the time you walk in until the time you leave.

This place is bomb.com. I love the vibes, the food, and service. I came in a Friday night. It's R&B night, but we did get a hint of the belly dancing and reggae. Oh I almost the forgot, but the drinks are amazing also. I didn't get hookah, but they did have hookah coals coming out constantly. Last but not least, they had a live band! Definitely a spot to vibe, eat, and drink.

If you are looking for a chill place with good music, food, and ambience this is the place for you. The wings were crunchy and full of flavor, my wife loves feta and fires so them together puts her on a whole different level! I drank a Michelada which was ok but a little to much of the tomato juice. I also had a tequila and pineapple which was really good. The Olive has a schedule for music selection Saturday is Jamaican and the vibe was there. They also had a live band that played today's and classic R&B. This is a great place to go to chill have some good food and a drink you and your lady will love this place.

Excellent ambiance, food was amazing too. Our waiter was thoughtful and attentive. we enjoyed the good music and hookah.

Excellent atmosphere excellent service. Great, hookah, great Turkish coffee. Great hummus! Beautiful place I will be back.

My hubby and I have been here before but it was a last minute meet up with friends, so I couldn't really determine anything except how cool it was on the inside. We made Reservations for 9:00pm, and I'm a glad we did because this place gets packed. I love this place because we were able to get the full experience, food, entertainment and just chill with friends. The ambiance is such a vibe! The food and hospitality is amazing! I've been telling everyone about this place because once you go there you'd definitely want to come back. If I lived here I'd probably be a regular lol literally, where I'm from we don't have anything like this. I'll be back on my next trip to Vegas!

My favorite hookah spot in Las Vegas. Sunday nights are Arabic/armenian music. Love this spot the food is delicious and the hookah is great. ! The staff is kind and very welcoming.

YUM! Their hummus is to die for. Chicken shawarma plate is amazing! Hookah is always a good vibe & their espresso martini w tequila hits the spot every time. I love this place! I've never been dissatisfied with the service provided. 10/10!

The band and music is great, but with all of the options here in vegas, I would definitely recommend going elsewhere. My mom, our family friend, and my husband came here to have drinks and appetizers, and my mom had also welcomed an acquaintance of hers to join us. The acquaintance is new to Vegas and is very outgoing and friendly. She was dancing to the music, which I believe can be expected on a Friday night with loud upbeat music, a dj, and club style lights. As she was dancing near the dj stand, the manager informed us that she was making guests feel uncomfortable and that she was asking other tables to buy her drinks. At this point, the only table I had seen her speak to was the neighboring one, and the person who was there was actively engaging. The person even gave her a hug and said goodbye to the rest of us as they left, so I think it is safe to say she wasn't harassing this person for drinks. And as for her dancing, she was not dancing in an unfitting way. The only time I saw her dancing in a way that wouldn't be considered appropriate at a middle school was when the belly dancer came over to dance with her--at which point we tipped the dancer. I'll note here that she was drinking, but she wasn't inappropriately intoxicated. I was chatting with her and she was perfectly able to keep up with the convo, no slurring. Keep in mind I have no reason to defend this woman, I had just met her that same night. But first, I don't like seeing someone being unfairly slandered. Of course, there could have been things I didn't see or hear, but from what I saw, there were no issues. Secondly, I didn't appreciate that the manager made the rest of the party responsible for another grown, coherent woman when she could have spoken directly to her. But that's not all...my mom's acquaintance arrived separately, had a separate check, and left separately. When she left, there was an issue with her card, which she had also forgotten there on the table. At this point, things got out of hand. We were very unprofessionally told that we need to sort gratuity for her. The manager got involved and insisted that she's "our friend" so we need to sort out the payment. Again, separate check. Separate person. No funny business--her card was there. The manager brought over multiple security guards, causing chaos, confusion, and embarrassment when a simple convo with a competent single point of contact could have smoothed things over just fine. The whole situation was handled very poorly and extremely unprofessionally. Overall, we were treated as rowdy swindlers for reasons unknown when this was supposed to be nice music, food, and drinks out with family friends. Disappointing.

This was my first time at Olive Mediterranean and it was great! The food was delicious and the service was even better. Our server, Reem, was incredibly friendly, gave suggestions of what to try and kept checking on us to see if we needed anything else. I will definitely be back!

My chicken was soooooooo dry. Sigh but ambiance was coo waiter was great. I do still recommend ppl going. After I left my friends told me a belly dancer came. I would have stayed longer if I knew.

Never have we felt more love than being here at the Olive. We come at least twice a month and the whole staff feels like family from the second you step in. The food is fire and we always make sure we are here when Barry Black is performing. It's always a good time.

Haven't been here in years, but I'm SO glad I came back! Celebrated a friends birthday on Friday night with the music by the amazing Barry Black and crew. Came back to see Kenny Kingsley; both times we had absolute top notch service from Vka who is hands down the BEST! So attentive and personable, we will always ask for his section in the future. BE SURE TO CALL FOR A TABLE RESERVATION! This place is packed on the weekend. They open at 5pm on weekends, live music starts at 10pm and they close promptly at 1am. Their pizza is perfect; the dolmadas are tasty, hummus and other platters are fresh and extremely well made. Customer service: A++ Food: A Hookah: A Belly dancers: A Facilities: A- (bathrooms) Vibes: A+ Music: A+ Drinks: B+

I've been coming here about 4 yrs now and this place never disappoints. The food is great and the atmosphere is even better. I love how they have live music & Friday nights are the best for R&B . When people come to visit I steer them away from the strip and encourage them to come here. It's a great local spot & I haven't had any complaints yet.

This was my second visit. It came as a recommendation from past owners of a local hookah lounge. I like how they're the only location open for hookah at 12pm (most days). All other locations are 4pm, 5pm, 6pm, or later. The selection of shisha is excellent. Customer service is excellent. On this visit, it was about 1pm and they were playing 90's R&B (which I love). The vibe and ambiance is excellent. Live entertainment nightly and the schedule is posted. I have not tried the food, but they have a nice selection of Mediterranean food. I will definitely return!

Came here earlier this week and felt extremely taken care of. Shelby was my waitress and she was extremely helpful in explaining flavors and menu items to me on top of being all around attentive. The food was good as well as the vibe of the whole place in general. Would definitely recommend especially if Shelbys there!

Overpacked and terrible service. Only one server for three sections. We sat for an hour waiting to place an order." And she never came. Hookah was gross we didn't even get offered if we wanted an orange head or clay head and only charcoal they have is coconut which changes the taste of the hookah. The room where they have the air music is overcrowded, and there is too much smoke. You can't breathe.
