“This was our second time at OLAR. The service and food is unmatched. Yesterday, Ellie did something a server has never done before. She asked me what drink I was interested in, I explained I want to try all of them but I cannot have Vitamin K due to a blood disorder and autoimmune disease. She asked me some questions about what I can or cannot have and what I liked. Then she said, “ I’m going to make a drink just for you!” She was making my drink and half way through she double checked if I can have egg whites, honey or agave. My heart burst because she really cared! A few minutes later she brought my wife and I our drinks. It was a gorgeous pink drink garnished with pretty flower petals. I think that’s what they were, I ate ‘em as I sipped this cocktail perfection that was safe for me to drink. I had two of these magical pink cocktails. Then as we were closing out our bill Ellie gave me the recipe on a server ticket. “The No K” was written at the top. “When you come back show the bar tender this and we will make it for you!” Y’all, that’s love! And as for the food…it tastes like love… no regrets.“

“We were here for lunch and our waitress Bree (sp?) was amazing. She was our waitress, the hostess, bartender! She was the only one working the front of the room. The restaurant was getting pretty busy and she worked the room with a smile on her face and kind words. She was terrific!!!“
