Evil Olive

Calling all Saints fans!!! Evil Olive is the place to be on Saints game day! They have raffles, a DJ and hookah to set the vibe right during the game. Service was good, considering the place was filled with people and very busy. I ordered a buffalo chicken wrap, which was pretty good!

Not sure what happened to my original review. But this place continues to amaze me. They serve chicken fried steak to fish and chips to everything in-between. I've had great white Russians and old fashioneds here. Sometimes these drinks can be hard to come by made correctly. My chicken tenders were delicious. I haven't tried many other food items yet.They have karaoke on Wednesdays and Thursdays and the rotation is great. They also sometimes play Singo. I had fun guessing the song titles when they play the music. I've also been during live music nights and the bands I've seen have been pretty decent. I'm really impressed by the wide variety of food, drinks and activities at this spot. It's mostly casual attire to business casual. There is a decent amount of seating though best to arrive before 9pm for a good spot. The patio is nice as well. I've really enjoyed service from Celeste, Kelly and Rene. These are the main ones who've helped me with fast, friendly service.

Who doesn't love a good dive bar! we've been coming to evil Olive for more than a few years now and have a great time every single time. We've gotten to know a lot of the servers and the bartenders. They are all simply just amazing. We have the best time and we'll always come back to evil Olive. I do wish they still had live band karaoke, because that was the ultimate best!

I think the food was really great and the highest point of the night. The chicken was hot, crispy, crunchy, seasoned. The fries and tots were fresh, hot and delicious. Even the ranch tasted homemade.The menu is great IMO, I love the customizable options you can add to the sides. I would come back and try more of it.I'd say the place itself caters to a lively older/adult crowd of regulars. You're gonna hear some classic music and good vocals on karaoke night. They hired an enthusiastic and fun DJ. Lots of colorful lighting, basic high tops and tables, just comfortable and simple.Was a little let down that the service didn't care to cater much to us even after expressing it was our first time in. They were nice and competent just not overly warm or welcoming. Finally, the drinks were probably the true disappointment. They were very watered down/weak.And for the cost? I truly have a strong suspicion that there was no alcohol. My boyfriend even ordered a double after being disappointed with his first drink, and it just further solidified the lack of alcohol. We decided to just enjoy our meal and then head to our usual bar after.Overall, I'd say eat here for lunch or Happy Hour so you're paying a more fair price for the drinks, as opposed to dinner- like we did.

Great neighborhood sports bar! Extremely nice bartenders and regulars. They make a good burger too.

I love Evil Olive so much. The food is sneaky good. You know what I mean. Like WAY BETTER than you'd think it would be, drunk or not. Kelli is the best bartender I have ever known in my life and probably will ever know. The quesadillas, the mozz sticks, the wings, the nachos, the sandwiches (all of them; I have had all of them) the burgers, everything is amazing. Everything. I will love this place until I die because the company, the vibes, the service and the quality are exactly what I need. I hope you always come to Evil Olive. I love this place.

This is the greatest little neighborhood bar just like the one on CHEERS. Where the people all know your name, the bartenders and waitresses know what you drink and bring it to the table or your spot at the bar without even asking you. They have a great outside patio with plenty of picnic tables and space for folks to move around, and people can bring their pets, watch the latest sports game on TV's inside and outside and an all around great vibe. You can reserve space for special occasions. My only criticism, if that, would be that the food isn't always consistent. But everything else honestly outweighs that...and I'm mostly referring to the chips and queso when I say "food"! But regardless we still go there every Friday and sometimes every Wednesday like clockwork! The staff are the best girls (& guys) around! We love this great community oriented establishment.

My partner and I went in on Father's Day and were disappointed the first millisecond we walked in. Our first sight was the poorly composed bartender taking a shot. Shortly once we sat down, we politely gained her attention to order- To which she responded to "give her a second" very rudely while she turned her attention to the individuals sitting next to us to tell a very *distasteful* and coarse joke (to put it lightly). She then had us repeat our very simple order for 2 draft XX for no reason other than to be rude and remind us she was in charge. We continued to be nice to her despite the many unpleasant interactions and she seemed to change her tone towards the end of our visit. I definitely won't be visits this joint again since not one pleasant thing came of it.

We found a hidden gem in visiting @evilolive_sa yesterday. Had great service, great food and drinks and great value!When I was searching on Yelp for restaurants with fish and chips, Evil Olive was among the ones with mention of fish and chips. We thought to try it. Dad and I shared a plate and my husband had his own plate. For $11.75, you get 4 pieces of fish! Since we ordered the entrée, adding a side salad was an extra $1! Drinks were all $1 off. Our margarita and well vodka drink were so reasonable. The only slight miss was the fried mushrooms. A bit too much batter there but the gravy was good.We enjoyed the outdoor seating. Kelly and Lisa were great servers. We'll surely be back. My husband wants to try their gator sandwich.

This is a fun Karaoke bar. Chill atmosphere and cool DJ/Karaoke. The bartender is nice, clean bathrooms (so don't mess them up), and just a chill place to be on a Thursday night or whatever to get through the week with friends or as a couple. Crowd is 30s+ (it seems), so it was just right for us but if you're on the younger side, it could still be fun. Rated 4 because it's just a good bar, nothing fancy but cool vibes.
