I used to frequent the Olive Grove some 15-20 years ago and was excited about visiting the place again. I was pleased to discover that things are the way I remembered: the service was attentive and friendly, the food (bread sticks!) was tasty and serving sizes generous. However, the place has got really dated (carpet!) and in my view needs to be refreshed before long.

Disclosure: I came here for a banquet meal so didn't order off the menu. The food was good, considering it was served buffet style to about 100 attending the event. The sauces and flavors were good, although the chicken a bit dry. The rest of the restaurant seemed homey and comfortable. Parking was tight, and it did feel cramped all around. I can't speak to selection, but overall thought they did a good job with the buffet meal.

A great find, the food very good with a very pleasant and attentive staff. Did lunch which was so good, returned the following day to partake of the full menu options. Do recommend this restaurant.

We had a group of 60 or so family members dine here after a family member's funeral. The service there was wonderful and we had a buffet arranged with the management prior to our dining. Drink orders were taken and then a crisp salad and warm bread sticks were served. Then w from the buffet we were served lasagna, shrimp scampi over rice and the third item, chicken parmigiana. (sp.?) We had to request they make coffee after the meal and they did; it was really good. The desserts were small individual squares of red velvet, chocolate and German chocolate cakes. Each one of them was DELICIOUS and so moist! (I thought the lasagna was really good).

It is a great place to eat, it is a romantic place just for 2. The food is very good and the employees are polite and respectful.
