I have been very impressed with this place. The service is fast and friendly and the food is delicious. The last time I was there my digestion was a bit off so I ordered the grilled chicken and rice. I was amazed at how flavorful the chicken was. I talked to the owner and he told me they marinate the chicken overnight to let all the flavors soak in! Delish!! In the photo in the background is quesadillas.

We had a really great family breakfast here. We had the gyro skillet which is delicious, you can truly split that with another person it’s an enormous portion. Service was great, I kept turning around and I had a full cup of coffee and had no idea she had been around Lol.

Excellent food and staff. A hidden gem! Spur of the moment dining experience that we were very pleased with. At first we were a bit reluctant, because the restaurant was closing in 20 minutes. We popped in and they were more than happy to serve us. Mazen and Rajaa were very friendly and extremely accommodating. We ordered the saganaki for starters which was perfect. The food was fresh, hot, and deliciously plated. Everything was served quickly. The stuffed grape leaves, Taziki sauce and the Greek dressing are all fresh and made in house. All amazing! We ordered the Gyro platters which were very flavorful with generous portions. If you haven't eaten here, you definitely need to go, and will not be disappointed or leave hungry! All in all a great dining experience and reasonably priced.

The food is amazing and the servers are so nice. The food also comes out quickly.

We went there and ordered take out. We were greeted as soon as we entered. The ordering process was smooth and easy. We ordered the spaghetti, wings appetizer, chicken teriyaki stir fry, and a baklava cheesecake. The food was absolutely delicious!! I'm still shocked at the portion sizes. Wonderful! Will definitely return.

Red Olive has become a favorite of ours, and a staple for late-night lunch breaks for me and my coworkers on the night shift. They are open until 8pm most nights, sometimes 9pm. The salads are excellent, there’s an option for everyone! They will happily make customizations for picky eaters and dietary restrictions. I always order mine with a side of pita bread, which is always warm and fresh! They also have a fantastic chicken parmesan, and their lemon cake is the perfect desert. Prices are reasonable and the staff is very friendly. Every time I call, they always remember my name and my usual orders! To-go orders are always ready within 10 minutes.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the area. I dine in or carry out at least once a month if not more. The food is consistently good. My favorite is the Caesar salad with their delicious grilled chicken. I don’t know what they season that chicken with but I’ve never had better. It is so delicious. I also enjoy the spaghetti. They have so many exceptional dishes. I highly recommend. The staff is always so kind. Thanks for great food and great service.

Don't mistake Red Olive as another coney island. Take your basic Coney Island menu and punch it up with higher quality ingredients, meat cheeses, and even coffee. I frequent the Dearborn establishment the management seems really nice and the staff very friendly. There's one in west Livonia that has a really cute waitress named Ginny. I like this place!
