The Green Olive

This place was so good, I came back twice before writing a review! I ordered the Gyro Platter both times and they were delicious both times. I'm not usually a hummus girl, but their hummus was so creamy and tasteful. The house green sauce that comes with the platter is incredible. I want that sauce with everything! I also ordered the Beef Shawarma Fries which was spectacular. Although it had too much onions for me, they had shoestring fries which is the best. We received complimentary baklava since they had grand opening the next day. It was good and flaky. Overall, would definitely be returning as this is my go-to place if I'm in the area.

My second visit to The Green Olive Mesa was just as delightful as the first. This time, I opted for the beef fries and the gyro platter with hummus. I found myself savoring every bite. But what truly elevated the meal was the green sauce--it tied everything together. Tangy, herb-infused, and utterly addictive.The Green Olive Mesa is swiftly becoming my go-to spot for quick Mediterranean cuisine. If you're craving deliciousness with a dash of authenticity, this is the place to be.

I was in the area and hungry, so decided to give this a try. The young woman working up front was so welcoming and informative!I got the #1 beef skewer plate and subbed "spicy potatoes" for rice though I had no idea what they were. They are SO good! It's thinly sliced potatoes in this amazing green garlic sauce. I'm happy that I also got a side of this garlic sauce because it's delicious!The beef is tender, with great flavor, and still a little pink. I would order this again for sure!She also mentioned they deliver like 20 miles, cater, and are on the delivery sites.

The salad consisted more of veggies than romaine lettuce. Also, the dressing on the side was not the traditional salad dressing it was some sort of jalapeño dressing.

Yelpers,Add this Greek restaurant to your try list. I had the shrimp with rice, humans, & a salad. Very tasty, rice was ok. I had take out, called and was ready as I was told

Very clean and welcoming restaurant. The young lady at the counter was ok. Not super friendly but not rude. She was wearing a mask so communications were muffled. Placed an order for to go and to eat there. She was bringing the food as it was being ready. My daughter got her salad and shortly after that chicken and rice. I got salad and waited and waited seemed like for quite some time. Lady appeared and brought to go orders. I finished my salad and was pretty much done especially considering that my daughter finished her meal already. When my chicken kabab arrived I tried few pieces and asked for to go box. As a customer I wanted to sit there and eat but unfortunately that didn't happen. Best advice would be bring the food for customers who are eating at the restaurant and after that bring their to go orders. The food was good. Flattush salad was seasoned well. Taboola salad was good but small portion for $8.99. Chicken kabab was well seasoned and soft. Lamb chops were amazing.

My friend has spent weeks raving about this location, and how we needed to try it before an event when driving out to Phoenix area. He advised there were vegetarian options and the food was great, so when we planned to go to Copa America we knew where lunch would be! When you walk in, there is a counter to walk up to place your order. Once your order is placed, there is a beverage station that you can grab a drink while you sit down to have your food prepared. They brought the food directly to the table, and I was amazed at the portion for the price! $13.99 for a Falafel plate which included fresh greens was great! This platter could easily feed two people if you wanted to share and was delighted to have leftovers. If you eat meat, my friend said the Chicken Shawarma Fries are a customer favorite and he finds himself stopping in weekly to have though this location is 20ish miles from where we live. That's the mark of a good dish if you are willing to drive to eat it! Be sure to check out this location if you are a fan of Mediterranean cuisine.

The falafel wasn't as good as I was led to believe. She enjoyed the chicken shawarma.

I ordered the Door Dash deal of the buy one get one chicken shawarma plate for lunch. It was amazing! The rice and chicken were moist and the salad was fresh and delicious. The only thing I would wish as an option would be a different flavor of hummus rather than only regular, this would be amazing with a cilantro jalapeño hummus! Although, the plates came with a side of this spicy green sauce that was sooo good. I had to call the restaurant on my lunch break just to ask what it was because I became obsessed. I will be ordering again, thank you!!

Delicious, quality food with terrific service!!! Clean establishment with friendly, helpful employees. If you enjoy mediterranean food you'll love the green olive!
