Chicago Food Boys: OMG...Olive Mediterranean Grill

Hello, today we are reviewing Olive Mediterranean Grill.

Otto:
I got the Mediterranean Chicken as a side dish (one of the good things here is that they offer the meat as a side, they call it a protein plate, and it is very affordable). I also got a side of pita and then put the meat inside. The Mediterranean chicken is not very spicy, but it has a really nice taste. They also have plates and sandwiches. The way it works for the plates is that you pick your protein (chicken, steak or falafel) and then you can pick from different salads and sides. The restaurant is a very modern design, not too fancy but really nice.

Ruben:
This is probably one of my favorite quick restaurants in Chicago. I first went to Olive back in november and went back again in january so this was my third time going there. I got the chicken shawarma sandwich it had chicken, tomatoes, pickles and garlic spread all served in a delicious pita. It was so good and very good quality for the price. I liked the atmosphere of olive very small and nice, and the service was good and the employes were nice. One of the questions we asked them is how many locations there were, and they said there were three which i did not know, one in downtown, one by Kingsbury street (that's the one we went to) and one in evanston that they just opened in january. Overall Olive is a great place to get a good affordable meal that is quick. I will definitely be going back to Olive in the near future.

I have been here a few times before and i think their food is very very good. I got the falafel and it was really good. I have had falafel a few times and my previous favorite falafel was a the West Side Market in Cleveland Ohio. But this one is now my favorite! it comes with 3 balls of falafel, and a few others things on it like hummus and potatoes. And i got mine in a pita instead of as a plate. and also the thing that i'm noticing is that it needs more condiments on it like maybe some mild salsa, yogurt sauce, or a little more hummus. But you can easily add that by buying those that they sell there. (i added yogurt sauce and hummus on mine by the way.) but the restaurant was very very good and i will go back someday soon.
