Seeking the best Lebanese / Mediterranean food in Nola?! THIS. IS. IT!!! Exceptional service; like lightning. Food; incredible, crisp, fresh, and truly marvelous. The seared lean meats are grilled perfection, hummus, and olive oils luxurious, with prices so affordable you will over tip the servers and order lunch for tomorrow.

Olive is a fantastic Mediterranean/Lebanese Restaurant located in New Orlean’s Central Business District. During lunchtime, I got the half Chicken/half Beef Kebab Plate which included Hummus, Pita, and Salad. I also got a side of rice. Everything was spectacular from the high quality and delicious food to the quick and attentive service. I highly recommend!

The food was really, really good. The biryani rice and vegetables were so light and flavorful, the Tabouleh salad was absolutely tasty and thank you for having veggie grape leaves. The food did not beat the incredible service. Hands down a wonderful experience!

This restaurant blew my expectations out of the water! So fresh and with delicious depth of flavor. The raw veggies were crisp, the hummus wasn’t overly citrus and was creamy, the bread was perfect. I wish I could eat the Greek salad every day for the rest of my life! The server was fantastic – patient, helpful & great sense of humor! We even got some baklava to go. I highly recommend this restaurant if you’re visiting! They don’t serve alcohol though x( meal could’ve been complete with a glass of red wine.

Wonderful food. We ordered Chicken kufta, Falafel and Baklava. The chicken was juicy and delicious. The vegetables in the salad were crisp and fresh. Falafel was exceptional. Baklava was taste wise okay, but a little hard and slightly burnt on the edges.

Pretty good food. Likes the hummus the salad and the chicken and kafta kabob. Oddly they don’t serve their meals with rice which I was not expecting as rice is pretty standard with Middle Eastern dishes and the guys running the place seemed Middle Eastern.

Away from the chaos of bourbon street, Olive is a great spot with very good Mediterranean options. It is clean and service is friendly. I really liked the Grape leaves appetizer , haloumi appetizer, and the falafel and shawarma sandwiches. We will be back definitely.

We stopped in for a healthy option in New Orleans and we’re so happy with our meal! We shared the chicken shawarma plate that came with hummus, pita and a fresh salad. We added a side of rice. It was the perfect amount to share for lunch and our bellies feel great! The service was great and attentive. Good clean atmosphere and clean bathroom. We’ll probably be back when we want something fresh and delicious. Also enjoyed the remix music that was playing 😀
