    We had the Feed Me menu but substituted the lamb for the chicken. Foccacia and hommus were yum. The zucchini chips were amazing. The kingfish was meant to have blood orange but I think it was normal orange? Tomato carpaccio flavours and texture were awesome but tomato slices were too thick. Roasted cabbage was great and macadamia puree the perfect accompaniment. The lamb was very tender but a bit drier than I expected, needed some more sauce. Dessert was a fantastic finish to the meal. Hot Adelaide day and it was too warm for me inside. Service was very good. Overall good value for money, plenty of delicious food.

    Had a fantastic dining experience at Olive for our daughter’s birthday. We all had the feed me menu which was plenty of food for everyone. The food was delicious and everyone loved the gnocchi. The staff and service was excellent and the restaurant atmosphere was bright and fresh.

    Ate from the feedme menu. I did not feel some of the dishes were balanced against each other. Focaccia and humus with raw kingfish. Dishes loaded up on the table. Not for a romantic dinner. Most of dishes were delicious, just not paired well. Service did feel rushed. Seating to close to others. The couple on the table next to us where closer than we were to each other. Squeezed seating.

    The service was great but the food was a bit hit and miss. Some dishes were great and others were really underwhelming and disappointing.

    The “Feed Me” option is definitely worth the price, and the best option if this is your first visit. In fact, we opted for the Feed Me menu on our second visit to Olive, because we enjoyed it so much the first time!!! 😃

    Staff very friendly and attentive they gave excellent service. The food was fresh and delicious and they catered for our friend who is gluten intolerant. Norhing was too much trouble for the very well trained staff. I would recomend this resturant and we will definitely be returning. Than you Olive for a memorable evening out.
