Olive & Lime Cafe

I really love this restaurant, it’s been a go to for Mediterranean food in Columbus for a bit now, and I’m always impressed. I love the vegetarian platter, and the walnut baklava is incredible. Fast and friendly service. Great place to grab a meal with friends and family! I also love their fresh pressed juices

Great family restaurant. Family meals complete with saffron rice, variety of meats, fatoush salad, hummus, baba ghanoush, labne, garlic sauce, pickles and fresh made pita bread. The food is delicious. A lot of seating but can be challenging to find a table during busy times.

Really loved the food here! The lamb and rice were delicious, and the chicken shawarma was full of flavor. Their salad and French rice were also great, especially with the sauce they serve on the side—adds a perfect touch. Tried their Turkish tea too, and it was a nice, calming finish to the meal. The place is quiet, clean, and well-organized with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Overall, a great spot to relax and enjoy a good Mediterranean meal!

Five stars feels insufficient. We came with family, Ohio Food Lover, and we were treated to a full experience. Salad, lentil soup, and two platters. My favorite was the saffron rice (yellow) with a variety of beef and chicken. Their pitas are wonderful: so fresh and chewy. They have a spicy red sauce that my son and I drained one bowl and we were, graciously, given a second. The ambiance and service were perfect along with the best Mediterranean food I've experienced. I apologize very few pics, I got the food and couldn't stop eating. I had three pitas stuffed with rice and meats topped by that amazing red sauce.

Have not been to this restaurant in a year. Today’s Christmas Day lunch was great. The kebab and an order of fall off the bone lamb was wonderful. Ample serving of the meats and great jasmine rice. Left plenty to bring home. Of course it was necessary to have dessert there as well as to bring more back to enjoy with the left overs. Always a good feel to the restaurant. Attentive help especially when it came time to ask for explanations of the choices and food items. Don’t wait a year as I did….go now.

We had a great meal and chose the family option so we could enjoy the. Various options available by chef. It was a very pleasant experience with high quality fresh everything. The flavors were wonderful and the preparation was as expected. You know you’re in the right place for great Mediterranean food when 75% of the restaurant is filled with non- English speaking families enjoying traditional Mediterranean dishes.
