Olive Tree Food

5 stars! This place has a bit of everything! The hot food is incredible! Closest thing I have had to food in Jordan! Stop by and give something new a try! You will not be disappointed!!!

This store is a MUST visit! No passport needed. It truly is an exotic mecca (no pun intended) of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean foods, breads, desserts and sweets, and they have a meat and produce section as well. Their shawarma (beef or chicken) sandwiches are 'to die for', they are so tasty (and healthy for you)! You can easily spend an hour in here just browsing their excellent selection. I just tried some kind of chewy nut dessert that smelled like a rose, and probably contained some kind of edible rose petals! They have a circular shaped sweet bread called 'Maeruk' which is incredible (has a cinnamon and nutmeg paste inside)! Lastly, the employees are very friendly and welcoming.

One of my favorite middle eastern stores to shop at in the North Olmstead area. Always friendly, and the quality of food here is great and fresh...I have to question the validity of some of the accusations of food quality in some of the other reviews (considering that upon some of my research I noticed one of the bad reviews was linked to extremely good reviews of another Arabic shop in close proximity, and all other reviews are very poor of more arabic stores in the area. Suspicious, no?) Anyhow, prices are reasonable. Haven't had the prepared food or sandwiches here yet, only shopped for products and meat to cook with. Ladies (and dudes, too): buy a bottle of rosewater for a few bucks and put it on your face each night after washing. It's my only real secret to good skin.

Food is authentic. I would say the best middle Eastern around for Meze. This is not a full service restaurant. I loved it way better when the old owner had it for 40 years. He sold it around a year ago. Prices went up (like everywhere to be fair) and fewer items to choose from. I used to love their meats. They seem chewy and old lately. Not the same quality. So not sure if they changed farms. People are nice Most herbs etc since are from abroad they do not have the fillers and bad stuff the US herbs have it's like growing your own and dried. Worth a visit but the meats I will not buy there anymore. As for cleanliness from the health dept. It's def cleaner than most places.

Looking forward to eating here! The owner is very nice, and knows how to treat his customers!

Delicious hummus, garlic sauce, pickled turnip and pitas! Highly recommend stopping in and grabbing some. Great spices too!

Best middle eastern foods in town! Family owned and respectful business. Love everything about it

The meat is not fresh. I bought chicken breast from them, I grilled it within an hour of purchase. It was rubbery and crunchy. No one ate it, I had to throw it away. I called them the next day, but they completely ignored my complaint. They told me that I should not store meat, and that no one else complained about it. Ironically, they simply assumed that I was asking for a refund. I made it clear to them that I was not asking for money, and as a meat grocer they should know what they are selling. No apologies from them. I looked up online, and found out that such meat is cheap, and stores sell it as ground chicken.

Always excellent friendly service and amazing food. Love the grape leaves, falafel, humus & Nablus cheese. Delicious.

This store is full with Middle Easter food items, meat selection, produce section and more.In general, their prices are average compared to similar stores. You will find some items with prices that are in the range of +/- 20% than prices at other places. You will never find items at great low price in this store. They have no idea of running any deals. If you need to buy middle eastern food, they want you to always pay full price. They will offer some items at double prices compared to other places.Check the expiration dates also to make sure you are not cleaning their shelves from old years.
