“ This is the second time I eat here and the food is delicious, atmosphere is great classy quiet and relaxing. Great service too. Highly recommended!!!! ”

“ No missteps here! All the dishes we had were very tasty and we were sharing family style with 7 people so had half the menu. Recommended! Edit when we got the cheque, they charged us for a dish we never got. When we pointed this out, our waitress said that when she asked us how everything was, we should have told her that we didnt get the dish. In other words it was our fault for not reminding her about the missing dish. For this I dock two stars for service. ”

“ Loved the food! The octopus was especially delicious and the service was attentive. The atmosphere is surprisingly quiet, making it a lovely spot for a relaxed brunch ”

“ My experience was delightful! Forget the usual NYC hustlebustle, this spot was warm and inviting from the getgo. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the warm and inviting vibe. The decor is a perfect mix of modern and rustic. Think whitewashed walls, olive trees because, duh, Mediterranean, and lighting thats perfect for a fancy, yet comfy, night out. The bar area is super sleek and chic. The service was fantastic. The staff is friendly and attentive. Theyre always there to make sure your glass is full and your food is coming along well. The menu is all about Mediterranean flavors, and it didnt disappoint. We started with a mix of the spreads. All of them were good but the Circassian Chicken was a gamechanger. It was rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The pita bread? This was no average grocery store sadness. It was warm and perfectly seasoned, begging to be dipped into the delicious mezzes. For my main course, I went with the mixed grill. The portion might not have been huge, but every bite was an explosion of flavor. The rice on the side? Delicious and it was the perfect side piece to the perfectly cooked meats. Every detail, from the fresh bread to the beautiful plating, screamed Chef has serious skills. Sure, White Olive isnt cheap. But, for Manhattan, its midrange and worth it for a special occasion. Youll be rewarded by the quality of the food, service, ambiance, and attention to detail. If youre in the mood for some delicious Mediterranean food with excellent service in Midtown, youve got to check out White Olive. Trust me, you wont be disappointed! ”

“ Khalid was our server and was so knowledgeable about the menu and helped us navigate the menu easily. I loved the food and the music here ”

“ I recently had the pleasure of dining at White Olive Mediterranean Restaurant in New York City and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The service was topnotch, with the staff being attentive and welcoming throughout our meal. The menu is fantastic, offering a wide variety of Mediterranean dishes that cater to all tastes. The atmosphere is super cozy, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. We tried the branzino, which was prepared to perfection, and the wildcaught salmon, which was truly out of this world. It was the best meal Ive had in a long time, especially while being on the road. Thank you to the amazing Sherife for having us and making our dining experience memorable. Cheers! ”

“ We had dinner there this evening with my family. It was phenomenal. The calamari are a must, as well as the Greek salad. Chicken piccata also delicious. Our server Nadia was outstanding, friendly, and knowledgeable. Her personal touch and attention to detail was excellent !! We will be back again next time in Manhattan. You owe it to yourself to visit this place and try the amazing food!! Five stars all around! ”
