I'm visiting from Seattle. I happened to find this gem & had one of the best meals of my life. The food was spectacular- seasoned just perfectly. Kenneth was my server. He was very personable, polite and gave me some great recommendations about Portland. Thanks again for a great meal!
We loved this place!! Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, and really fresh yummy food!

We had bought a Groupon that was expiring soon so we went on a whim. The food was amazing. Beef shawarma pizza was perfect on pita bread. The lamb kabob was tender and perfectly seasoned and the prices were so reasonable which is a rarity in Portland. The service was impeccable. We will be back.

Delicious fresh, Mediterranean platter! It felt like an oasis stepping into Olive Cafe. Wonderful friendly service.
The best hummus I’ve had! We also loved the fried cauliflower on the Beruit salad (as well as the salad). The olive plate is nothing special, and the ambiance is a bit dark. Local beer was good too!
We had a very nice dinner here! It was a nice change from all the seafood we've been eating the past few days. The hummus was delicious as was the chicken & lamb kabobs.
Wonderful! We ordered the brussels shawarma (pictured) and falafel gyro for take-out. The brussel sprouts were seasoned so well and roasted perfectly, and “dipping” them in the tahini dressing was such a treat. The staff was super friendly and greeted us with a genuine smile. We were just on a visit to Portland and happened to stop in, but otherwise we would be back on a weekly basis!
Our favorite lunch in Portland. Finally some delicious and good for you food! It was much harder than expected to get a decent and healthy meal in this town but Olive Cafe delivered. I got a delicious Greek salad and my husband got the mezze platter. He loved it. He said the hummus was very delicious and I ate the cauliflower- so good. We couldn’t have been happier to find this gem in the sea of fried and heavy / highly processed foods that engulfs the downtown area of Portland.
The best Mediterranean food I’ve ever had. They have both meat and non-meat dishes, all of them delicious. The atmosphere is relaxed and casual. A Lebanese wine is also available and is excellent
A trip to heaven for your tastebuds. This place was super tasty and yummy. All the food was super fresh and served in generous portions. The restaurant had a soothing and welcoming vibe. I highly recommend the Cheese flatbread and gyro. If you are feeling in the mood for Mediterranean food, this place will blow away your expectations.
Awesome food. Some of the best baklava I've ever had, and the vegetarian options were terrific.
Husband and I both agree that this was a great lunch experience! The lamb gyro and beef gyro were both AMAZING and the best we've had in a long time. Very friend staff, quick service -- great place all around! Highly recommend you stop by!
