    Koobideh kabob(ground beef kabob) and Baklava

    Second time here because I couldn't stop thinking about my first visit, and it definitely didn't disappoint! The service is always friendly, the restaurant is clean, the food is incredible, and the overall ambiance is so welcoming. Kabob Koobideh is moist, flavorful and big. And the baklava... so so good Perfectly balanced--not overly sweet or greasy. I can't wait to come back again!

    GREAT GREEK FOOD! We were greeted right away - there was one person waiting for his to-go order. The menu is nice - not too many items but not too little. They have specials available. I got the #1 Koobideh plate and my boyfriend got a gyro, baba ghanoush, falafel and the soup. Everything came out amazing! The guy was so nice - he explained things and had a nice chat with my boyfriend (who is a foodie and loves to cook as well). Price is great and you get a lot! The place is small with some tables. I think most people order take out - nothing wrong with that! If I lived in Everett, I'd definitely frequent the Black Olive.

    Highly recommend Lamb Skewer. It is so ono delicious.

    All I have to say is this restaurant is a MUST try if you haven't already!!! We experienced this place last night and it was hands down amazing! We ordered Koobideh kabob, Greek fries with a lamb skewer and Caesar salad. Everything was so flavorful, honestly I can't describe in this post the flavors it something you have to experience!! Thank you Black Olive for the exceptional, friendly service and an amazing first experience!! See you again very soon!!

    Koobideh Lunch Special. About $16 dollars.

    If you are looking for authentic Mediterranean food, you have to stop in. This place doesn't look like much when you first drive up and even when you walk in. However, their food is superior. Packed with flavor and generous portions, I haven't left disappointed. I usually get the their lunch Koobideh (beef) special or the lamb/beef gyro. The meat is so tender and flavorful. The lunch special comes with salad and basmati rice. The white basmati rice is topped with saffron rice!!! So hard to find this made well. The owner will come and routinely check on you and ensure you are enjoying your meal. He teats his restaurant and customers like a Michelin rated spot. You can see feel how proud he is of the business. Trust me, you don't want to sleep on this restaurant. Give em a try and support local business.

    Special - Combination Plate

    Went to Black Olive today for lunch. Excellent! Small and tidy spot. They had a combo special with one ground beef kebab and one chicken - along with rice, salad, pita, and tzatziki for $20. It was huge. And more importantly - delicious! I am half Persian so I know a good kebab. These were moist and tasty. And I ended up with leftovers. I will be back with the hubby.

    Order the Greek fries with extra sauce and received whatever this is

    Gyromania - Combo Mixed Kebab Plate

    Coming from Canada where Mediterranean food is vastly abundant, I have searched across the greater…read moreseattle region for a solid restaurant that offers the same feel and flavor. I tried other places like Kafe Neo, gyro bros, and gyro spot and they were mediocre... Gyromania has proven to be my spot from here on out. I ordered a lot of food to give it an honest try as I normally do with every other place I had tested. This is what I ordered: 2 build your own chicken shawarma - every veggie included with hummas and garlic sauce wrapped in a tortilla - by far the best tasting shawarma I had in the entirety of the city. I am a Lebanese pita bread or Saaj bread person so I would not get the torilla wrap next time but opt in for the pita instead. 4.5/10 (just because the tortilla made it feel like a burrito rather than a shawarma wrap. Grape leaves- just like how my grandma made it - 10/10 Falafel - no bitter aftertaste!! This hit and exceeded the expectation! 10/10 Baklava - flaky but structured well not too sweet or sticky. They were awesome! 10/10 Strong recommendation if you are looking for authentic Arab/Mediterranean food. Mr. Marwan and his son Isaam were not only friendly but extremely generous when i told them I moved from Canada and been looking around for good food that I grew up with. Mr. Marwan gifted me 2 mango yogurt drinks that he said "i know youre going to love it".... They were so good they didn't last the drive home. Thank you both for the amazing dinner. Absolute gold standard in the greater Seattle area!!

First of all, the restaurant is in the 112th Street Diner (the place is home to 3 different restaurants--a diner, an Italian place, and Ephesus). We walked in and had to stand there for several minutes before being acknowledged. (There was only one other party in the restaurant at the time). We ordered our food and drinks after sorting out the confusion about the restaurant's identity crisis. Then we waited. And waited. And waited. No drinks came for 20 minutes--not even water, not even silverware. And we by that time we were the only customers left in the restaurant. Then our server tried to serve us an already opened bottle of wine when we had ordered a full bottle. Uh, what? Finally, after 25 minutes, we had enough. We gave $5 for the Sprite (the only drink we were served) and left and told them we won't be back. I will be surprised if this place lasts the year. They didn't even have any music playing. It really was so much worse than this review can do justice. Inept is an understatement. Our server ignored us for 15 minutes , then when we got his attention, and he tried to serve us wine, he didn't even know how to open up a bottle of wine. It was really sad and clueless. My wife said "Are we on Candid Camera?!" Avoid avoid avoid! At all costs.

There weren't many dog friendly restaurants conveniently off the freeway, but luckily Yelp led us to Kate's Greek and American! We arrived for Sunday brunch and were immediately greeted by our kind waitress. We sat outside where they had a few tables with umbrellas. When I did come inside it appeared somewhat spacious and busy with neighborhood folks. There are also menus and signs posted with their specials. Service was so lovely, our waitress took wonderful care of us and my pup. She also has pugs so it was nice to hear about that and her recommendations for our visit. It's homestyle cooking--and if feels and tastes like it! I had the Franko Scramble which they were kind enough to substitute spinach for the cheese at no additional cost. The scramble was good and tasted like what you'd expect. The hashbrowns that came with it were huge, thick, soft, and slightly crispy. My family and I ate and enjoyed our dishes. The portions were massive, especially for the price. We're happy we could kick off our trip in Washington with a delicious brunch at Kate's!
