I'm going to be honest and say this was not the best Greek food Ive ever had but I will say it was tasty enough to leave us satisfied and full which I think speaks volumes. Hate spending money on food and leaving unhappy. Also, dont expect a lot from your dine in experience and be patient and you'll be fine. Think of it like ordering from a fast food place. We would definitely return and next time I'd like to try their chicken tikka masala! read more

Cute little place that serves Mediterranean and Asian cuisine. It's order at the counter and there are a few tables to set at. I ordered the delicious Gyro plate which came with rice, hummus, salad, Pita bread and tzatziki. I also ordered a baklava for dessert which I didn't care for. The inside was crunchy which made me think it was old. All in all, I will definitely be back. read more

Blue Olive Grill - Greek Salad Combo Kabob Plate Dinner - Middle Eastern Near Me - Mckinney, Texas

The food was amazing! Best hummus with tapenade, falafel, and pita. Friend loved the gyro & fries. Friendly and fast service. Clean and calm atmosphere. We'll be back! Thank you! read more

It does not get any better than this ! ! Admittedly there are some items on the menu that I don't care for- but this is attributed to personal choice. All of their signature dishes are simply a KNOCKOUT ! ! read more

We love this place. It's a tiny, friendly place worked by very nice immigrants, with lots to offer. We get their wraps and sides of babagenoij and tsaziki ... Yum! Greek dressing is a wonderful blast in the mouth. Owner went out of his way to make my hub's birthday special. Thanks!! An absolute standard for us. :) read more

Best chicken kabob in this area. Also love the salad dressing. Great healthy option. Wish it was a bit closer to home but always enjoy my food here. read more

I had a great experience at this resturant! The owner was so kind and attentive and the food was delicious. Everything tasted fresh and came out in a timely manner. I got both the butter chicken and the tikka masala and both were so smooth and creamy and flavorful. read more

Incredible find in the middle of an unremarkable small old shopping strip. My friend and I wanted Mediterranean, but didn't have time to head to Zoe's in Fairview. A quick Yelp search brought us to Blue Olive Grill. What to order? Anything. Really. I got the grilled chicken platter; my friend got the spicy chicken platter. Both featured tender, fresh chicken. His was quite hot - like sweat a little while you eat hot. A side of flavorful salad with house-made dressing, and a dollop of hummus with a drizzle of olive oil round out the plate. There aren't many seats in here, and you need to know to go to the counter and order. They'll bring the food to you when it's ready. Would I go back? Absolutely. read more

Small quiet little middle eastern place with;big flavor! Came in in Black Friday to an empty restaurant around 1:30pm. Kinda sad considering how delicous the food was. The lunch specials are from 11 till 2:30. Special on chicken, lamb, and beef shwarma, gyro, and platters. Definitely get on of those or it gets kinda expensive. The lunch deals come with rice, hummus, and salad. Neatly portioned on 4 sides of plate. The only problem was the salad came with dressing on it. Kinda over done in my opinion. Got the food in under 8 minutes and the food was fresh. Saw the griddle heat up. Too bad I don't live nearby, otherwise it would be a regular lunch spot! read more

Currently sitting in my car on my break scarfing their grilled chicken plate down. Chicken is flavorful, juicy, hummus is yummy and the rice is cooked perfectly It's also a TON of food! I can't wait to come back but actually sit down. read more

Excellent food. Not much of an ambiance but we enjoyed our visit. The chicken tikka masala as very nice and too spicy. The restaurant has been in business for 10 years and I see why. And yes service was great! read more

Sadly the takeout we just ordered via door dash was not as ordered. The Korma was not boneless, it was full of bones (see pictures) the chips cooked to a point but not fully crisp. Sadly we ordered from here 2 weeks back and it was amazing however this was a massive waste of $36 (inc delivery). Very very disappointed, more than half will go into the bin. The kids couldn't eat the boned curry. Coming from the UK they love a good curry but boneless should be boneless (FYI the odd bone is ok but this was terrible, seriously bad) FYI as per the feedback I did try to call however the place was closed and checking it closed at 7:46 and my call was 7:50 (I can attach a pic of the call record) From delivery to table was only had 20 - 30 mins. Sorry I didn't jump on the phone to complain and respond. If it will help I can drop it back off at your restaurant tomorrow as you will clearly see that is no boneless korma.....more like a bones masala... read more

When I drove into the parking lot of this place, my first instinct was to go somewhere else and not try it. Then I read the reviews and decided to give it a shot. It is super tiny and not fancy in any sense of the word. With that being said, it was fantastic! I have to say it was the best falafel I've ever had. We tried the veggie wrap and the veggie Curry and they were both wonderful. People were coming in to pick up orders the entire time we were there. Must try!! read more

We ordered their Gryos on a food delivery service, and they were amazing. I have ordered it multiple times since, and it always hit the spot! Their pita is fresh and delicious. Their hummus is a little underwhelming but still good! read more

My kiddo and I had lunch at Blue Olive the other day and it was really good! We ordered the dip plate that included baba ghanoush, hummus, and tzatziki. We couldn't decide what our favorite was... they were all so good! And there was plenty of pita bread, which made it even better! We each had some of the gyro ....plate and wrap.....both fantastic! There was a small salad on my plate and it was delicious! We will definitely be back! read more

Wanted to try something new and found this Mediterranean grill in Mckinney. I ordered the falafel appetizer to-go and didn't even make it back to work before opening it in the truck because it smelled amazing! I popped open the container and found nothing short of an appetizing set of 5 falafels (look like hush puppies) with a dipping sauce. Y'all, these things are SO good! Falafels were cooked perfectly as they had a crispy outside and soft fluffy center. The dipping sauce was full of flavor, refreshing with a little kick. I am giving 5 stars for this delicious food!! The only negative is the tables, chairs, and floors were all sticky. This made it feel dirty. I don't know if it WAS dirty or if it's the cleaner they use but I don't think I would enjoy eating inside because of this. read more

Blue Olive Grill - Blue Olive Grill falafel appetizer. - Middle Eastern Near Me - Mckinney, Texas

I have been here a couple of times, but my partner has been here uncountable times. It is his favorite, and he was the one introduce me to this fabulous place. My most recent visit, I decided to order something different in addition to our normal orders -- combo plate, gyro plate, and this time, we got the "Chicken Phal." We noticed the Indian section in addition to their Mediterranean section. Maybe we were a bit too hungry that day after a long drive, and not consumed any food for over 24 hrs. I felt like I have never eaten anything as flavorful and tasty as what that chicken phal. It was spicy, but it wasn't too spicy for me since I use a ghost pepper sauce occasionally in my food. But oh my goodness, the chicken phal is a must-try if you're into spicy stuff! Don't forget about the yummy combo plate though. Super delicious as always. They have a home-made style hot sauce too! read more

A friend recommended this place so I had to try it. I ordered the chicken kabob meal. It came with rice, salad, hummus and pita. Everything tasted great! They give a good portion of food. Service was good as well. read more

Blue Olive Grill - chicken, rice, salad and pita - Middle Eastern Near Me - Mckinney, Texas

My wife was celebrating a birthday. All she asked for was a good mediterranean meal. I cast my search net wide (Dallas) to impress her. After reading through a handful of yelp reviews and swiping through countless pictures, my spidey senses brought us to the Blue Olive Grill. We made our way to the restaurant on a Saturday night (7:30). We were greeted by the host and sat down. She served us some water and took our orders. I went with the chicken kebab ($10.95) and my wife went with the kofta kabob ($10.95) and a side oder of baba ganoush ($7.00). About 10 minutes later, the baba ganoush comes out with a mountain of warm peta bread. The baba ganoush was nice and smokey with a great flavor. Soon after, the kebabs came out and we were ready to eat. The presentation of the food was excellent. The taste of the food was delicious, and the service was on point. The price of the food is reasonable because of the generous portions. On this night, we felt there were more people picking up orders than there were patrons. I appreciated a nice intimate dinner with my wife and will definitely be returning sometime for lunch. The dinning experience exceeded my expectations and this place is a hidden gem. read more

Ordered a very large take out order for my husband's birthday, but the order wasn't correctly made. When I reached out to the owner / manager / via Facebook (I tried calling, but no one answered) I was treated as an inconvenience & felt spoken down to. In this day & age w/ Covid limiting business, customers should be treated with the upmost amount of care. I don't recommend & I won't be returning. Updated with pictures of conversation after the lovely owner decided to respond. My youngest son is 15 & is on the autism spectrum, he also has food allergies. This was a special dinner for a family of 6. I didn't request a full refund, I requested a refund for the food that wasn't made according to the instructions requested at the time of ordering the food. Please do research before eating at or ordering from this establishment. Please read how the owner responds to complaints. There are several other amazing Greek restaurants in McKinney & Frisco where they treat their customers with respect. For me & my family, we'll chose to dine & order elsewhere. We are going though our credit card allowing them to handle the partial refund. read more

Great fare, in a strip center here in McKinney. A tasty choice for great food at the Blue Olive Grill

Incredibly basic and flavorless. I've had friends recommend this place so maybe I went on an off night but my rice cooker has made better rice and conveniently they say the coke machine is out of order so you have to buy drinks by the can. read more

The food is fantastic! Service always excellent. I have eaten here many times and gotten to know the owner, Waleed, a little. Great guy and works very hard to provide great meals for everyone! read more

I came in to eat here with my son. He loves homemade pita bread and hummus so he was excited to check this place out with me. We walked into to find a small, but very clean restaurant located in a shopping strip along 380. It is relatively close to my work, so it made it very convenient for us to stop by on my way home. When walking in we were asked if our meal would be to go or dine in. We decided to eat there. We both had iced teas and started with an appetizer of pita bread and hummus. You could tell it was homemade and not the stuff you get from the grocery store. The pita bread was like little pillows of bread to dip into your hummus. My son gobbled the pitta bread, but I was just happy he found something he loves. I ordered the grilled chicken plate with grilled chicken served with hummus, rice and salad. The grilled chicken was moist and very flavorful. My son had the kid cheese pizza. He gobbled up his whole pizza, he loved it. My only complaint would be that our drinks were empty much of our meal. I don't know if our server didn't want to bother us, because we were the only ones in the restaurant. On our way out my son asked if we could go back next week? read more

This is my favorite Mediterranean restaurant North of George Bush. Hands down. My wife and I went all in for our first time and got the combo plate, gyro plate, dolmas and falafels. WAY too much food for 2 people and when we go back, we'll get a combo plate + one appetizer. As far as the quality goes, everything that we had was amazing. They have had to Americanize the salads because Greek salads are a foreign concept, but it still tasted good. 5 stars for sure! read more

Worst biryani I have ever had, it looked like fried rice. Ordered through doordash and looks like they ran out of biryani and added white rice on top. Edit: Changing the rating to three star just because of the feta salad and hummus! They were amazing. Moral of the story don't order Indian from Mediterranean place! read more

Blue Olive Grill - Chicken Kabob dinner - Middle Eastern Near Me - Mckinney, Texas

My family and I have eaten here several times over the last few months. If you're not interested in driving all the way to Dallas, this is one of the best places north of Richardson to get really good Mediterranean food. While it is a hole-in-the-wall, it's clean, the family and staff are always friendly when we come in or order out, and the food is always hot and delicious. It's an overall enjoyable experience. They are generous with the portion sizes and pita. I can definitely say we have enjoyed the vegetarian plates, lamb biriyani, and gyro. read more
