About the restaurant

Turkish, Italian and Greek with a Twist.
The Olive and Grape opened in September 2010. The owner, Paola Corsini, is third-generation Italian Levantine, born and raised in Izmir, Turkey. Paola's distinct culture is represented in the menu at The Olive and Grape. Each and every meal served is infused with the traditions of Turkish and Italian cuisine.

The Olive and Grape is one of the best restaurants in north Seattle. Paola and Chris are wonderful hosts; kind, friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive but not intrusive. The food here is delicious and authentic; Turkish and Italian ("olive and grape") with a strong Mediterranean influence. Many of the recipes are from Paola's mama and finely executed by Chris and Paola. The Olive and Grape is at the top of my list for special occasions and a treat. If you're looking for delicious food and great service, go to The Olive and Grape now; Paola and Chris are retiring soon.

About the restaurant

FareStart's James Beard award-winning model for social change is fueled by our restaurant. We’re located in the heart of Seattle for breakfast/lunch on weekdays (walk-ins only), private catered events, Guest Chef Nights and other special dining experiences.

Our beloved Guest Chef Night pairs premier local chefs with FareStart students to create a three-course meal served by volunteers. These events occur on Thursday evenings, tickets are released a month in advance and reservations are needed. These events generally sell out quickly, so we recommend booking as soon as possible.

FareStart is a social enterprise nonprofit focused on job training and employment. Our restaurant and other food-based businesses serve as classrooms for students to gain culinary skills that prepare them for careers in and beyond the food service industry. Since 1992, we’ve helped more than 15,000 adults and youth work toward stability and economic mobility.
