Welcome to The Green Olive

Welcome to The Green Olive

Welcome to the Green Olive restaurant and catering. Home of the fresh and healthy Mediterranean cuisine where our passion starts with the seasonings. The seasonings are carefully measured and mixed together to ensure a well-rounded blend of flavors in every morsel. Our meats are immersed in a seasoned marinade as long as sixty hours and are grilled to perfection for a flavorsome Mediterranean and Middle East food experience.
Sun-Soaked Ingredients

Sun-Soaked Ingredients

Fresh and healthy Mediterranean food starts with the right preparation. It begins with carefully measured seasonings, blended to create balanced flavor in every bite. Meats are marinated for up to sixty hours, allowing the spices to soak deep before they’re grilled over an open flame. The result is bold, simple, and rooted in the flavors of the Mediterranean and the Middle East.

What our guests are saying

The food here is great! I dined on a Saturday afternoon and the place was peaceful and clean. All the meats were cooked well and the gyro shawarma was sooooooooo goooood. I recommend it to anyone. But you can't go wrong with any other choice. I will be returning to this place.

I ordered the lamb chops & works platters, well done. The cook was amazing, I really enjoyed the flavors. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants something other than a burrito or a burger with fries; something more healthy and hardy at the same time. I'm definitely visiting again!

Got the gyro with potatoes. Probably the most tasty meal I have had in a long time. Really good quality and amazing flavors. Delicious, light sauces. Highly recommend!
