    We were impressed -- they knocked it out of the park again. - Server: Jennifer -- attentive, friendly, and on top of timing and refills. - Appetizer: Spinach dip -- creamy, well-seasoned, great for sharing. - Drinks: Sweet tea and Arnold Palmer -- balanced, not overly sweet, served cold. - Entrees: Four cheese pasta and Chicken and Basil Chicken Pasta -- both rich and comforting; the four cheese had a creamy, satisfying sauce, and the basil chicken pasta delivered fresh herb brightness with well-cooked chicken. - Dessert: Strawberry cheesecake -- fresh fruit topping, smooth texture, excellent finish. Overall impression: consistent quality across appetizers, mains, and dessert, with standout service from Jennifer. Highly recommended for a reliable, flavorful meal.

    Food and service was fantastic. Great and quick dinner service. Our server chris was awesome.

    Shrimp Scampi with mashed potatoes (best I've ever eaten) instead of pasta.

    This was our first time at Green Olive and it certainly won't be our last! Our Caesar salads were fresh and plentiful and the entrees were much better than we expected. I got the shrimp scampi, which has a creamy sauce, and hubby got the papparadelle pasta with mushrooms. Both excellent. I really enjoyed my aperol spritz was delightful, a cocktail you don't see often. Be sure and save room for one (or two) of the awesome desserts!! Our waitress, Jennifer, was an attentive and accommodating to our requests. All in all, a stellar experience at Green Olive Grill!!

    I wish there were 10 stars to give. This place was fabulous! The service was fast and extremely friendly. The restaurant had a warm, inviting atmosphere. But the food was definitely the best part. It tasted very authentic, fresh, and light. We live out of state but will return any time we possibly can. It will be worth the 1 1/2 hour drive for us!

    This is a gem of an Italian Restaurant. It's quaint and charming. We walked in and were greeted with such friendliness and hospitality. The menu had a huge variety and really offered something for everyone. They also had a dessert display. Everything looked amazing in it. When we are in the area, we will return!!!

    Kofta Kebab

    Amazing food. Had the Kofta kebab and it was really delicious. Reminded me of food back in the SF Bay Area. It was so good I came back the following week and brought my wife. She had the Mediterranean Combo and also loved the flavor of the beef and shrimp kebabs. I asked the waitress what she recommended and said the short ribs are cooked the night before so it's super tender. She didn't lie. It was fall off the bone. I think I have a new spot to add into my "regular spot" rotation!!

    My granddaughter and I celebrated my birthday with 2 different Salmon dishes. We had calamari as an appetizer. Every thing was delicious !

    We got a to-go order so it might be different eating there but the sauces were really good and the portion sizes were HUGE.

    Haven't had anything that's been less than a 10/10 yet. Some of the best tiramisu I've ever had!

The lady started friendly but seemed cold when I looked at iPad to review the bill. We ordered 2 sandwiches- 1 gyro and 1 shawarma. It CLEARLY on the menu says it comes with a side of fries, Greek salad, hummus, pita etc. Nowhere does it mention an up-charge for anything. I saw it said +$2.50 for each of the sides we asked for with the sandwich. I questioned this and she gave me a face like "how dare I question?" And just said "nothing is included with Sandwich, even fries". It literally contradicts what is on the menu! She said she'll tell her manager. Anyway- that was weird. Also, on the mixed grille it came with the tiniest pieces of pita, almost offensive, given the price. The entrance feels nicer for a take out place with the fake plants on the walls, but the back is closed off and the bathroom is dirty. Overall, I'd really only go for take out. And know they're cheap and will nickel and dime you.

    I haven't found an enormous amount of Middle Eastern cuisine in Asheville, but this place brought…read morethe vibe. It's small and unassuming in a strip mall in West Asheville. My takeout was ready on time. While the falafel roll still might have been better fresh, I wanted something that I could plausibly eat several hours later on a mountain without a ton of restaurants nearby, and that choice worked out well. Many falafel rolls come with add-ons that I don't like, but the pickled turnip offering here was both flavorful and colorful. I also got their fries, drizzles with tahini and parsley, which is a good way to eat fries. A case of baked goods and a small market section of canned items were also available. There was certainly space to eat inside or out for someone without my travel schedule. It's also notable that in addition to the usual falafel, they offer ample vegan options as befits the Asheville community, including a house seitan and some other vegetable and fake meat options. I was happy with what I got, but the choice is always appreciated.

    While keeping in mind that this is an extremely informal and casual sort of restaurant with counter…read moreservice, I still have to say that the service is excellent. I have had falafel in various places all over the country and in Europe and this is in my top two! The Falafel is excellent, the portions are large and everything I have tried at Gypsy Queen has been delicious. I've brought several friends to the restaurant and they have all loved it. Gypsy Queen is one of my go-to places whenever I'm in Asheville. I live in Barnardsville and sometimes I go down there just to have some falafel. Try it for yourself!
