Our chef developed one of the finest crab cakes around! according to the Washington post, on July 14, 2005, olive grove's crab cakes are rated in the top 10 in Maryland and Virginia. Also, the 1999 Zagat survey says, "zealots drive around the beltway for fantastic crab cakes. We use only jumbo lump crabmeat, the most flavorful and expensive part of the crab! we then blend this delicacy with homemade bread crumbs, mayonnaise, eggs and our secret seasonings. The crab cakes are then broiled to perfection.
Dressing consisted of pure olive oil, vegetable oil, vinegar loads of imported Romano cheese, fresh herbs and spices, and pasteurized whole egg. Many of our new customers told us we should offer a variety of dressings to be successful. But we stuck to our original plan and today none of our thousands of customers ask for anything else on the olive grove's famous salad!.

The food was ok, it use to be my favorite spot for crab cakes. The waiter was excellent. The food was slow getting to the table. You don't get free salad anymore. We ordered a large salad and shared.The restaurant has been updated, but nothing to write home about.There wasn't a crowd it was around lunch time.Several people went to the restaurant area where the bar is located.I don't think I'll be going back after this visit.Sorry I don't have pictures of the meal.

The Olive Grove came highly recommended by employees of the Hotel that I'm staying at. They gave excellent advice. The portions are enough for two but I'm greedy so it was enough for me.All of the entrees come with unlimited bread sticks and a fresh salad bowl with grated cheese. I was smart, I only ate one bread stick because I wanted to have room for my entree.I ordered the fried corn nuggets and it came with a dipping sauce that was really good. I also had the crab cakes with pasta. The crab cakes were large and was fill with chunks of crabmeat. Excellent flavor, very firm and definitely very tasty.For my cocktail I tried the Peach Moscow Mule - drink was interesting but I think the Peach over powered the ginger beer or vice versa.All on in all it was worth the trip and I would definitely go back.

I've heard great things about the food here. Especially the crab cakes! We were seated as soon as we walked in. We enjoyed all of the food we ordered. The servings are generous and we had food to take home. I am looking forward to returning to this restaurant to try some of their Italian dishes.

Tried this place out due to a recommendation from a colleague. I believe he said the owner of this restaurant was related (brother?) of G&Ms. So of course I had to try their crab cakes. I got the land and sea and enjoyed it. I think G&M had a similar/same item on their menu. Really liked that this place also gave you a salad and bread sticks with the order. Yippie!The crab cake seemed a bit smalller but it could be my memory playing tricks on me.I ordered take out so I didn't get the eating there experience. But since pick up is at the bar, I did experience the ambience briefly and it was not super great. Will continue visiting off and on to see if things are different in the future.

This used to be one of my favorite restaurants but the service was poor food quality has diminished but not surprisingly the prices have risen you now have to pay for the salad before your meal and that wasn't good so sorry to say I will not be going back

This restaurant was ok. You can tell that there are repeat customers and there's space in the back for large parties. I was there for a family meetup and there were 21 of us including 3 children. I had a crab cake and loaded baked potato. I received the wrong side with a prompt apology (before I mentioned the wrong item) and a loaded baked potato cake out about half way through my crab cake. There was lump crab meat and it was decent. I wouldn't go back for it, but I didn't complain either. I've never had a baked potato with nacho cheese on it and I wasn't expecting that. It felt a little cheap and took away some class. The restaurant could use upgrades. Everything is pretty worn. The chairs are uncomfortable too. That's it really. Not much to look at. Not much of a welcoming ambiance. Decent food.

my wife was retiring from tower federal credit union after 35 years and i wanted to give her a retirement party/luncheon it was 42 friends and relatives . spiro worked with us and i HAVE TO SAY SAY WE WERE OVERJOYED . all the guest went home with left overs and 100% happiness . the wait staff was awesome the owner stopped in after his soccer match to check on everything. the selections that were available were awesome and along with the cheese and veggie platter fresh fruit at the start of the event, desert was available and the guests were allowed to choose what they wanted from main dish to the dessert we spend over 2300.00 and it was well worth it .next year in 2026 when the wife turns 70 we will do it again .don't let the price we paid scare you it was well worth it . private spacious dinning room crab cakes ,stuffed shrimp, steak or chicken baked potato vegies bread sticks soda ice tea ( alcohol was extra but reasonable

From as far back as I can remember (at least 20yr) this restaurant served amazing food, service was always great. The last time we were here was May 2018, the service was great, crabcakes divine. Since moving from the area in 2015, we came thru today during our Thanksgiving travels and stopped in. I cannot say enough about this experience. Manicotti was cold on the ends and the middle, I can never, ever, recommend the mealy-meat crabcake again. But what lacked the most was service, understanding of basic English language and most importantly, cleanliness. Sadly, another jewel has turned to dust. And even more sadly, the ownership and/or management clearly doesn't care.
