Grilled Pita Stuffed with Feta
Jenifer V.

Came here while waiting for my dog to be done at his grooming appointment and I'm happy I did! The grilled pita with feta was my favorite (I love feta cheese) service was amazing and the restaurant was very clean and cutesy. I appreciate price and portion sizes!

Veggie Brochette no cheese

Great Mediterranean food! Casual dining , quick friendly service! Love that they have vegan options. Portions are good. Veggies were perfect. Craving Mediterranean while in the Kent Covington area- a must try!

Amazing Middle Eastern restaurant in the Kent, Maple Valley and Black Diamond area, don't miss this place! It's a casual restaurant with good seating capacity and offers variety of Med food. We ordered the Lamb shank, falafel and Appetizer platter- all of them were really good. Food came in hot and it's a hit for us!

Gyro platter
Maria L.

I can't say how much I really like their humus! It's so rich and creamy! It's the best I have had so far. The dish I like eating the most is the gyro platter. It's very good and they give you a good amount of food, too. I always have left over for the next day. The restaurant is located next to the LA Fitness. Super convenient if you're looking for a good meal after working out. Even though I have seen different cashiers there every time I have gone, they all provided good customer service. Kept the dining area nice and clean for all their customers.

They keep forgetting our pita bread every time and some of our sides. It's disappointing. Too bad, the food is great here. This is like the 8th time.

I'm starting at a hotel why would they not give me utensils?

The food was delicious. I'm guessing the customer service isn't great. I got DoorDash because I'm on vacation in a hotel and it says do not include utensils and condiments. WHAT!?! There was no box to check on DoorDash. I basically had to eat food with my hands until my husband went and found some. Normally I wouldn't be this crabby, but I just got off the plane and I've had nothing to eat all day. No matter what put your utensils in with the food OLIVE TREE! Especially if you have things like rice, hummus, and salad.

Seatings inside

I was shopping at Trader Joe's and decided to grab some lunch with my partner since it was located on the same plaza. We've ordered take out from Olive Tree before but haven't dine inside before. As we entered the restaurant, we had to walk to the counter to order our food. The menu was displayed behind the counter with some pictures. If you're like me, I like to read the menu on their website ahead of time before ordering. I ordered the avocado chicken shawarma wrap combo with garlic fries while my partner got the gyro combo with olive tree fries. Once you order and pay for your food, you look for a table to dine in. The restaurant has a nice ambiance filled with rustic decors like you're in the Mediterranean. Service is non existent except when they bring your food. For my dish, I really love the marinate of the chicken shawarma which goes so well with the avocado, lettuce, tomato, onion and tzatziki sauce, wrapped in pita bread. It seemed like a very healthy meal. Did I mention the garlic fries were to die for?! The garlic aioli smothered all over the fries tasted so delicious, with strong garlic flavors. Made it very hard to share. If you're a garlic lover, this is a must order! I sampled my partner's gyro wrap and it tasted very good. The meat wasn't dry and gamey, which I like. Overall, one of my favorite Mediterranean restaurants around the area and I will continue to be their loyal customer.

I've frequented this establishment for over 10 years. It is a mainstay of the area. This gyro plates and falafel is consistently a fulfilling treat. I usually come by for takeout or food delivery.

Lamb Kebab Platter (D#8)
Mialy A.

4 years ago this was the place my Mediterranean friend from nearby college and I used to go to. They definitely approved this place (back then) and we came here when we had money to have our "fancy" dinner as college students. Back then we enter and got seated then they give us menu ... you know the ushe. Today I came back to show my husband and I was quite in a shock with the changes. First, now we go to the counter, order and pay. They give us the number order and we get our own drink at the machine. Another thing that shocked me, the food came in a disposable plate. Yes, it looked unique (bamboo like) but quite flimsy. I asked them for what they are known for or what do they recommend on their menu and they did not have any opinion... all I got was that people liked everything on the menu. I asked about which lamb dish is best between lamb shank and lamb kebab and they said it's two different dish. Of course I know that but I wanted to know their opinion at least or some explanation on which one to choose. Portions were definitely smaller than in the past and the dine-in is not as busy as it used to be. (Maybe owner changed?idk maybe this is so since Covid). They had quite significant to-go order though. We ordered: -dolmas (appetizer). It came with 6pieces and it was ok. -lamb kebab plater #8. It was good. The lamb was not consistent in cooking since some were well done and some were pink. -chicken shawarma #2. It was decent/ok. Some of the chicken pieces were quite small (maybe it's the last portion order?). Seasoning was not quite t The whole order came with pita bread (they put both in the same foil, no plate just straight foil) In general, I was quite disappointed because this used to be a really good place. Lots of memories from college but it's sad that now it looks like a deli place.

The garlic sauce makes anything next level. I love the chicken shawarma, Greek salad and my son loves the gyros. Good take out.

Went there with a group of 6 and had a huge order -- whole roast chicken, multiple kababs, qubooli…read morepulaav, hummus, desserts. Taste: some of the best chicken I have had in a while. Tender, juicy, succulent, with just a right seasoning and spice. The ground meat kababs were average. Lamb kabab just decent. The whole grilled chicken was really good -- again, tender, juicy and succulent. These guys definitely know their chicken. The pistachio baklavas were great. But the Kunafa quality has gone down. Couple of months back, Kunafa was great. This time, the cheese quantity had dwindled and replaced by some filler (cornflour-y, custardy- stuff), and an overuse of orange color and artificial essence. The butter/ghee was also almost missing. [Someday I would love to unravel the mystery of why restaurants use artificial color -- be it tikkas, chicken 65, desserts. No one likes it -- name one customer who has ever said, that a dish needs color for me to buy/eat it. The customers don't want it. The restaurant has to spend more money to purchase the color. It's extra effort to add it. It's a lose-lose-lose situation. But let's leave it for now] Portions aren't humungous but quite fair for the price. The whole roasted chicken is probably the best chicken deal in the US right now -- 20 bucks will get you a full, good-quality bird, done to perfection, along with fragrant rice. Service is very good. Our server Mustafa was amazing -- gave us great recommendations, was prompt, and overall made us feel welcome. Ambience is OK. Extremely spacious (one of the biggest per-capita restaurant space that you will ever see), and clean. The furniture and decor is a bit dated, but you might not notice it. A huge pointer for the management: please get clean the bathrooms. Bathrooms are in a very sad need of repair and upkeep, and in this day, age and location, a bathroom that smells of pee can truly tarnish all the good efforts and investments you guys are making. It's an easy fix -- $30/day and you can have someone come in deep clean it every day. Overall, highly recommended for the food!

The staff was very nice and helpful. Food was awesome and huge portions. I will go backread more
