Been going here 5 years now every time I am in town a few times a year! This is my go to. Still love it! Honestly, it is a great fast casual place. Good prices, fresh ingredients, not skimpy on ingredients, friendly service, really can't go wrong. Choose your protein, veggies, sauces, and eat. It's that good and simple. read more

I stop by around 6:30 on a Monday evening and got a wrap with lamb. I was not crazy about the bread that it was wrap in . I wish it had more flavor and thinner. Overall it was fine. I would like to try the bowl. They have all toppings on display. read more

Excellent food! Very clean and friendly. They guided me thru avoiding my allergens. Would highly recommend!

When I'm on this side of town like I was today, I try to grab some food of places that I haven't been before. After scouring yelp, this place popped up and it sounded super tasty. It was about a mile down the road from Suburban showplace, so I didn't have to venture to far. Pulling in, the locations easy to find. It's a fast casual place serving somewhat traditional and non traditional Mediterranean food. They serve bowls, wraps and salads with a combination of ingredients you can add or take away. I reviewed the menu and the man at the counter was super friendly and helpful. I didn't want a bowl because the portion size looked rather large for me at that moment, and so I went with the Gyro as I had secretly wanted this all along. I decided to get a combo because I was feeling quite hungry. I got a drink and some fries along with my gyro and it all came out about 10 minutes or so later. The gyro was actually really good! I wasn't sure if it would fill me up or not but it did and it was very fresh tasting. They kind of went skimpy on the fries to be honest, but I wasn't going to say anything. They do have a pop fountain here so I can get my drink on when I need more Sprite. I did use a ton of napkins because they were on the thinner side and I tend to have to wipe my hands a lot for some reason. (not sure why, maybe I should look into this.) THe locations super clean and they also have a cooler with some specialty desserts and other items that I checked out while they made my food. My total bill was $19.08 after everything. Kind of pricey but the food was good and I plan on returning. Very well run establishment! read more

Really pleasant experience. The place is bright, clean, lots of beverage choices and the food is prepared very well! Super tasty and tender chicken kabob. Many fresh and delicious toppings! I enjoyed the sauces as well. My chicken and rice bowl was light, flavorful and satisfying. The staff were efficient and friendly. I plan on returning soon! Nice carry out spot, along with dine in and some outdoor seating. The prices are also very reasonable. read more

probably the best Customer service I've ever had at a food place, the lady was so nice and explained everything for me because I was new to a lot of the options As well as helping me avoid things containing my allergy. The food was always amazing; great portions for the money as well. And to top it all off the seating was great too I loved the lighting the areas had and it was very very clean. read more

For 13.75 plus tax and tip I would've hoped the bowl would have been fuller. Chicken shawarma was dry even for chicken shawarma but still would have been nice to have more. The S'khug is delicious read more

Very good food, super clean restaurant. Reasonably priced. Will definitely be coming back

I purchased Chopped Olive platters for a Lunch & Learn event yesterday and I was VERY impressed. The food was delicious, the presentation was gorgeous and the service was attentive and efficient. I will certainly use them for catering again and will add them to my personal "favs" list - for my family and friends. Extra tip - their falafel is some of the best I've had in Metro Detroit, their rice is perfectly flavored, and their chicken was tender, juicy and better than pretty much anything I've tasted. read more

I wanted to like this but I feel like something in the bowl was dry. Wasn't the salmon . The hummus was bland . The guy that was putting the base was kind of rushing me I felt like so I just picked something fast which was the rice and hummus. The person at the toppings was patient however. Again, maybe it's bc of the toppings i selected but this would have been good if it wasn't "dry" read more

This is not a chain restaurant. There is a chef that makes all the ingredients amazing food amazing staff.

First time here and it was a solid experience! We stopped in for dinner during the week cuz somebody me!) wanted garlic sauce. I ordered a rice bowl with chicken schwarma as my protein. Loved the yellow rice as the base. The chicken was very flavorful but just a tad dry. I had two scoops of their garlic sauce - shoulda asked for a third as it was so good! I did pay a little extra to get the grape leaves but wasn't a fan - the ones I have gotten from other places were more of a rice mixture in them but I am not quite certain what was in these - kinda tasted like it was just rolled grape leaves... i'm assuming that there was some sort of filling in it but I really don't know. My husband got one of their pizzas and it was very good. It also had chicken Shawarma on it. I liked how it was cut as it was not the traditional pizza pie sliced into eight slices. It allowed me to sneak a small piece quickly. read more

Chopped Olive Modern Mediterranean- A Fast Casual Restaurant - Rice bowl with chicken schwarma - Mediterranean Near Me - Novi, Michigan

The online ordering process is super simple and easy. You pick which kind of dish you want and then just build it up from there. I opted for the half yellow rice bowl with added salmon kabob, feta, olives, Israeli couscous and some cucumbers in a Mayo looking sauce. I ate it in one sitting for lunch and was full for the rest of the day. I waited too long to eat though, so I definitely think for around $13 you can get two meals out of a bowl. I chose two sauces - tzaiaki sauce & the garlic sauce. Use the garlic sporadically, as it does have a kick! The flavors blended well and were yummy! I'd definitely go again. read more

Ordered door dash from here - we were amazed at how quickly the food was prepared and delivered. We ordered some fattoush salads - all of the salads had fresh ingredients and an appropriate ratio of pita crisps, dressing, tomatoes, and cucumbers. The shawarma add on was excellent. read more

The woman behind the counter told me I can't take pics of the food at the counter, that's odd, she said it's because she's trying to go orders. I wasn't even taking pics of her at all. This very impatient woman behind the me asked if I had a big order and asked if she could go ahead, this was after telling me that I should have put my order online, if it's bigger than one item. I so wanted to tell her she should have done the same for a quick pick up as well. I took the high road and let her ahead, even though she was rather rude to me. I ordered a laffa wrap with lettuce, chicken kabob, tomatoes, chickpeas, cucumber and garlic sauce, another chicken shawarma laffa with lettuce, pickles and ranch, a veggie laffa wrap with quinoa, lettuce, chickpeas, pickles, pita, feta and garlic sauce, a chicken kabob salad with Fattoush lettuce, all veggies except pita chips and another salad with chicken shawarma with Fattoush and all veggies and no pita and a chicken shawarma rice bowl with quinoa; cucumbers, beets, feta, chickpeas, tomatoes and a side of garlic sauce. They seem to be shortstaffed and the woman behind counter apologize for the rush and a woman cutting in front of me. She thanked me for my patience. They charge you for every additional base. $0.75 per item. I chose salad as his base. The salads were decent. The wraps and rice bowls were good for my staff as well. read more

Superb!!! I came in because my church was having their version of Food Networks Chopped. The service was outstanding. I pick the country Israel we were doing International chopped edition. The young lady in the front sold me the largest catering bowl of an Israeli chopped salad that honestly fed 60 people small cups. We came in 3rd place. The decor inside the place was phenomenal very clean and professional. Entire experience 10/10! Thank you and God bless read more

From the first time I picked up food at Chopped Olive, I got a feeling it was going to become a place that'd enter my standard list of takeout staples. It's a great combination of easy to understand menu, great ingredients, easy process, and good value that makes for an excellent fast casual restaurant. The ingredients are familiar, but Chopped Olive does a great job delivering them in a way that's easily accessible and easy to customize, which makes a big difference when catering to picky eaters. Quality and taste of the ingredients is fantastic too! Mid-pandemic, ease of ordering and pickup for takeout is more important than ever and Chopped Olive does well here -- they allow for online ordering (through the Yelp app too) and they have a designated area for pickup orders so you can pick up in a largely contactless way. Definitely appreciated! Keto/ Low carb folks: it's easy to build a salad bowl that works for your needs here. I opt for double protein here, but I'd think you could make a solid meal without going for that options as well -- there are tons of add-ons you can add for free. Overall, I'd say definitely check out Chopped Olive! You'll find a winning combination of quality food and great value, even for the pickiest eater. read more

Loved everything about this place. The food, the service, the cleanliness. Everything tasted super fresh and everyone working there was so friendly. Have already recommended it to a few people and will be back when I'm in town again! read more

The food was fresh and good. I found the hummus to be bland though. The falafel was good and so was the chicken and rice we got the feast and it was enough food for 2 of us for 3 meals. The service was very fast and the working was very good and personable. read more

I visited this restaurant pre-COVID, so this review is based on normal conditions. This place offers customizable bowls like you'd get at Mr. Kabob or Chipotle. There is a decent variety to choose from. Portions are light compared to Mr Kabob, though, and many of their items aren't seasoned much. The falafel was pretty plain and the quinoa was completely bland. The hummus did have good flavor and smooth texture. The pickled cauliflower was super sour - I wasn't a fan. While I wouldn't be completely opposed to eating here in the future, I wouldn't go out of my way or make a special trip. read more

This place. Their food. You should go! It's super clean. The staff is kind and professional! It's probably the best Mediterranean food in metro Detroit. Their bowls are amazing! That's all I've had. I've had the same thing all 17 times I've eaten there. Why change up when you've got a good thing going on?! The ambiance is a little more lunch cafe vs. dinner-style but I can do a cafe for dinner every once in a while! read more

Frequent this place for pick up orders. Good food with decent portions at a reasonable price. Customize anything from your bowls to Lafa wraps. Recommend when you want a reasonably healthy meal. read more

Solid Mediterranean bowls/ wraps/ kabobs in heart of Novi. Got a salad bowl w/ chicken shawarma and a side of chicken kabob. Salad was very good. Chicken kabob was ok. Have had better, had worse. Overall, a pleasant eating experience. read more

My new favorite go-to for middle eastern/Mediterranean food! I stopped in here the other day and was blown away by the freshness of the bowl and the tastiness! The owner Al was super nice and let me sample some sauces as I wasn't sure if I would like them- and I ended up sticking with the fattoush dressing which was delicious! I got the chicken shawarma bowl and the chicken was moist and seasoned very flavorfully! For the price I definitely think it was worth it as all the ingredients tasted very fresh and healthy and the taste was awesome! The portion size was good- I could have saved half but it was too tasty to not eat! The owner also threw in some candies to my bag that were super tasty. This place is awesome I will definitely be back! read more

Just ordered a fatoush salad. For $10 it was about a cup of lettuce and a few toppings. I didn't order a side salad. I stopped ordering after the side of fries shrunk in size. We had hoped today would be a good visit but now the salads have shrunk. Sad. I really wanted to enjoy this place. read more

My best friend and I drive 40 minutes from Ann Arbor to this place every so often because it's just too good! Feels kind of like a Cava but everything is made fresh daily and there are lots of options! Employees are always SO friendly- gave us a free drink and a treat just to be nice (shoutout to the owner Al)! Food is DELICIOUS (definitely recommend the falafel!) and atmosphere is so pleasant! 11/10 read more

This place is delicious -- I ordered the Fatoosh salad, which was a perfect balance of vegetables and a little crispy texture from the small pita crisps which were scattered throughout. I also got the "Feast", which was delicious chicken and steak shawarma over a nice bed of yellow rice, with a side of hummus. The meat was perfectly cooked with great taste and texture and the rice had a nice Mediterranean spicy flavor to it. Top it off with some pita bread, delicious garlic sauce, as well as a little pickled vegetable side dish and it was an awesome meal and a place that I always return to in Michigan whenever I want some good Mediterranean food! read more

Friendly and clean. Delicious food. Family environment. Try it out soon. Shawarma experts.

Created a salad bowl based off of normal fattoush ingredients + chicken shawarma protein + hummus + whipped garlic on side + fattoush dressing on side. Chicken shawarma was nicely marinated, prepared and a decent portion for the upcharge. The hummus was also an upgrade but lacked flavor and was a very thick texture. Whipped garlic was VERY strong but great to add to hummus to improve its taste. I was able to make two meals out of the single bowl with the addition of pita chips I had at home. Dressing was also one of the better versions I have had. Super easy online order and quick preparation mid-week/mid-day Contactless pick-up in-store. Friendly staff greeted from the kitchen as I entered. read more

I forgot to take a picture, but I had a salmon shawarma and it was phenomenal! The server was very informative (as it was my first time). The restaurant was clean and you can tell that a lot of pride goes into this restaurant. The salmon was moist and flavorful. The garlic sauce was sooooo good. I also had pickles, chick peas, bell peppers, pickled onions, and sumac in my sandwich. All in all--SO GOOD! I'm definitely going back! read more

I absolutely love coming to the Chopped Olive! The set up is exactly like that of Chipotle in that you start at the right and can order a rice bowl or a salad or a sandwich I believe. I've only ordered the rice bowls! After the rice you can choose two base ingredients. Mine were hummus and lettuce. Next, you can choose what seems like as many as you want of vegetables and pickled items. I chose pickled turnip, olives, cucumber, ( warning: do not add the vegetarian grape leaves they are the only thing on the menu that are disgusting) , then you choose up to two dressings, I chose tzatziki and tahini sauces. I also chose Chicken shawarma as my protein. Everything was delicious and melded together beautifully! If you have a few people in your party you might want to try one of the flatbreads. They are also delicious. Very fun to share! read more

Great food and low allergen!!vegan options too The feast is well worth the price and the shwarma is juicy and amazing. read more
