This was a Food Tasting Event long time ago. Totally 10 or 12 ppl attended. It was my first time to come to OLIVE, the place is clean and cozy.We all had 4 courses set, appetizer + main course + dessert + wine. Since we have more than 10 ppl, we just ordered different things to share, so we can taste some of each.

I love the presentation of all the food. Attactive looks always drive people to eat more .I tried some of each, and most of them are delicious. Olive’s Mezze, Calamari and Loukoumades are nice. But I'm just not so much into the lamb pie, since I prefer lamb rack or lamb chop, instead of minced lamb.
