    We started with a couple Martinis which were great! Seafood Alfredo was ok. Seafood was EXCELLENT. Scallops and shrimp were soft and juicy. Crab was mixed in well! Sauce was bland. Added more cheese, crushed red pepper and salt and was much better tasting. Ravioli sauce was wayyyy too sweet. Couldn't eat much do to that. Meatball was very good. Minus the sauce as it ruined the meatball taste. We bought 5 desserts. Stay tuned. Will add once we try them at home.

    We had a last minute need to go out to dinner Monday 2.3.25. I decided to give this place a try. We had breakfast here when it first opened and it was meh. I am so glad we decided to take a chance. Hostess that seated us was nice. The service provided by Jadizyia was attentive and pleasant. Interior appeared clean. Food was delicious. My app of Korean Cauliflower was crispy and the coating was scrumptious. I did not expect to like it that much. Their Penne Vodka was with Sun Dried Tomato rather than prosciutto. I loved that because I crave it often but do not eat pork. Pasta was perfectly al dente and dish was comforting. The bar area was packed when we passed it. There was a decent amount of people eating in the dining room. The choices on the menu were scarily plentiful. Manager stopped by to check in on us during dinner. Salad that came with dinner was huge for a complimentary dinner salad. Overall really nice experience. Glad we gave it another chance.

    This is the Green Olive's second location. My mom has been frequenting their Hopewell location for years and suggested stopping at this one when we were driving through the Vineland area. It's located in the old Cosmopolitan space on Delsea and it doesn't look like much has changed aesthetically. Inside is grandiose and has plenty of booth and table options. We were seated in a booth kind of near the entrance. One thing I will say is that the bathroom needs better signage. Both times I almost walked into the kitchen before being redirected by staff. It was a tad confusing for sure. My mom and I ordered the spinach and artichoke dip app to start. It was pretty good; what you'd expect from a dip. Nothing spectacular. Our meals came with salads, so we upgraded to caesar. She asked for her dressing on the side, so I asked for mine to just come out dressed as normal. As such, my dressing was on the side. Eye. Roll. The salad wasn't that great, either, and wasn't made from the good parts of romaine. For my meal, I selected the roast turkey. From the menu, it sounded delicious: turkey in gravy, greens, and a cranberry stuffing. Honestly though, it was all pretty mediocre. I dumped salt on it like 10x and it still didn't provide flavor. The veggies were steamed and super boring, and the stuffing was weirdly sweet. My mom liked her stuffed crab cakes, so I guess maybe go for seafood? On our way out, I looked over at the dessert case and out of nowhere some random woman exclaimed, "I am trying to get out." I said sorry, held the door open for her, and she strutted out without a thank you. I made sure to yell out a you're welcome. Basic manners, people -- though I guess you can't expect much from a person who doesn't know how to say "excuse me." Point being: Be careful if you're looking at the dessert case, as it might inconvenience someone else for two full seconds. All told, the experience was pretty average. Service was friendly though. I probably wouldn't return on future trips to Jersey -- not worth it for me.

    Ate out on the patio to see the singer playing that night and it was beautiful weather. Nice little…read moresetup outside, but heavy truck and biker traffic can make it noisy sometimes, no fault of the restaurant. Had a good experience with a server when we first came. She instructed us to meet with the hostess inside to get a table on the patio. My wife was in a wheelchair and she told us she'd bring the hostess out. Very nice. We had a nice table on the patio, but I have to say the metal chairs weren't that comfortable. Our server, who was very pleasant, came over and took our order. For dinner my wife had the ravioli and I had the shrimp fra diavolo. Each dinner came with either soup or salad and bread. The salad was very good. Nice crisp greens and lettuce with tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, shredded carrots, and other fresh ingredients. The Italian dressing we got with it tasted good. The bread was nice and crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. A nice start to the meal. My wife enjoyed her ravioli. For me I got my meal over rice instead of pasta which was fine. The shrimp was cooked nice, but with the tails on. I know it's just a pet peeve of mine, but I hate dipping my hands in sauce to remove the tails. The sauce itself had one of the best amounts of spice from a fra diavolo i'd ever had. However, I can't say too much about the sauce itself. I wasn't a fan of the taste. Almost tasted like a sauce you'd get in a store. My biggest issue was at the end of the meal. Our waitress all but disappeared. I wanted to get our leftovers boxed and get the check. She wasn't even out on the patio for almost the entire time the singer took her break. Actually I barely saw any of the servers for awhile until the hostess came out and I flagged her down to get our server. Another issue that I wasn't too happy about is that the waitress couldn't take my card to pay for the meal. I had to leave my wife, who has alzhiemer's, alone while I went into the restaurant to pay at the hostess stand. Except for a diner, what restaurant requires you to pay at the hostess stand. If their prices were much lower I could see it, but making your patrons get up and pay was kind of stupid.

    The service was good, friendly staff. The eggplant parmigiana was very good, not the thin cut on…read moreeggplant, however Still very tasty with good texture. Also oysters was excellent also. Old school atmosphere just a little dated and dark interior. Overall experience was pleasant.

Service was slow, as stated by other reviewers, but w/ such a small staff what can ya do. Below is what I ordered and my rating: Chef's Special Chicken Marsala w/ Carbmeat and Shrimp 4 out of 5 Sweet Potato Fries 5 out of 5 House Salad with House Dressing 4.5 out of 5 The Chicken Marsala would be a higher rating had it been a little more put together. It was just the chicken with a few pieces of shrimp and crabmeat on top. It all tasted great, but it wasn't mixed together properly, just thrown on there. It would have also have been nice to have more than 3 pieces of shrimp (it also was quite expensive for this dish The fries were A+. Nothing to complain about here. Tasty, plentiful, and good price. Salad was also basically flawless. Overall, a good choice in Vineland to eat!

Literally sooo soft. Ughh I was super disappointed. It was soo gross that I forced myself to eat it since I paid $50 and I still couldn't finish it. C.

My chef must've been in a bad mood yesterday because my food did not taste like what these other reviews are saying.
