Unfortunately, They just shut down. :( They we're healthy, light and delicious but they just announced that they are closed permanently.

I was trying to choose between Olea and Chipotle which are literally right next to each other. I'm always up to try new things, so I decided to go for Olea. I was excited to try it and I will tell you right now that this Mediterranean restaurant is actually really good. I tried their Greek fries which were fried at the right amount with feta cheese on top so goooood. Then I asked for a rice bowl with roasted red pepper hummus, beef/lamb gyro, shredded lettuce, kalamata olives, and crumbled feta this was so good and I very much enjoyed it. I've tried beef/lamb gyro before in a different restaurant and this was not so greasy at all like I've had previously. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want to try a Mediterranean restaurant.

I ate here after the yelp event I went to. The food is okay. Definitely not authentic Mediterranean food. This place is set up like Chipotle a food line. You can chose from a bowl that is rice as a base and then you go down the line and pick what you want or you can chose a wrap or make it a salad. I got the wrap with falafel and of course some greens and Tahiti. My friend got the meat bowl which was okay also. Definitely need some seasoning. Over all it was okay. I won't be back though. Just cause this seems like an American type Mediterranean food.

My wife eats here pretty often went to pick up her food tonight, they've been closed since 3 pm but I guess left their online orders up, took her money and no way to actually get said food? Guess we'll have fun trying to get her money back ?

My friend and I ordered the bowl and fries, it was absolutely amazing. Their seasonings are so diverse and their flavours are very unique. I will definitely be coming here more often. It is a build your own style and I very much enjoy that. Definitely worth the money!

This was catered to my work this week, and everything came in a separate container, and I was able to eat what I wanted. It was excellent. Decided to take my family there this Friday. I am vegan and gluten free, so I was super excited to try the falafel! As soon as we walked up to order, things went downhill. First, the falafel isn't gluten free, and that kinda shocked me, but I was willing to try the roasted veggies. I guess I assumed it would be peppers, onions, tomatoes or something of the like. Nope, broccoli, dry cauliflower and carrots. Like frozen veggies that were microwaved. Second, my family had never had their food before, so they needed time to look. (They are not gluten free or vegan btw) I do not think I have ever in my life experienced such distain from an employee at a business. She was the most unfriendly person that I have ever encounter in a customer service position, and to be so young.... It was very uncomfortable, and I just paused my review in order to ask my family what they thought about the service. They agree with me. I wanted to hide under the table after the way I played this place up to my family. We sat there and ate in shock, and we were almost afraid to go up and order more food to go. Finally, a different girl came to the counter, and she was pleasant. I will try again in a few weeks because I do like the food, and my family loved it as well. I will revise if there is better customer service. Also, make your falafel gluten free!!!!! ? (Rating is not for the sad,glutenous falfel, but maybe the sad, dry veggies ...?)(update- went back 2 more times, and the service and the food was great! I changed my rating since the angry girl seems to be gone. Enjoy!)

We love this place. Food is always fresh and delicious and lots of great healthy choices!

Quick, easy, and delicious! Just like Chipolte with Mediterranean food. Flavors in my bowl were very complimentary and the bowl itself was extremely filling. The only downside is that I came here with my 1.5 year old and there aren't much options for kids. It would have been nice if the kids meal came with a side. He still ate it though which proves to me that the pita grilled cheese is good!

We went back after a long lay-off due to bowls being half full!This time bowls were full to rim and excellent flavor!Keep it up Olea ?

I'll tell you, this place is a must. Foods amazing and service is great! I always get the bowl here and slow roasted gyro as my protein. Well anything on the menu is good! Like I said this place is a must, great lunch spot.

Fresh and many topping options and sauces. Ride is fluffy and delicious. Really good falafel

Craig Whitehead

Great food and its good for you too. Sanford took great care of us as she prepared our bowls. You can also get the food in a pita wrap or as a salad. We both had the slow-roasted gyro meat. The grilled chicken is also flavorful. They have many toppings and House-made dressings along with sides and baklava for dessert. Regular fountain drinks along with hibiscus tea or mango-lime punch round out their offerings. If you are looking for good food that is healthy too Olea is the place to come.

Delicious, fresh and healthy! I had the steak Mediterranean on a salad. Yummy! Place was very clean, staff was very nice and we all enjoyed our meal ages 2- 38

Service was good but not traditional Mediterranean fare. Think Subway for Greeks. Overly salted tzatziki sauce killed the flavor of everything else on my gyro.I'll not be returning.
