    I love Olga's Appetizer Trio. I used the checkin bonus and got the Birmingham's Best Brownie!

    To start, I have loved Olga's since I was a very little kid walking around in Birmingham and came upon a quant little shopping arcade. Inside, there was a little cart selling the original Olga and spinach pies!! I was hooked from that day on! My excitement grew as Olga's expanded their menu and their business. I was able to go to the Westland and 12 oaks locations along with the best location, Livonia at Laurel Park. This Novi location came along and many of the mall sites sadly closed. Overall, the quality that Olga had so many years ago has suffered and declined. But, there is still nothing like the bread, the snackers, the curly fries and some sandwiches when done with care! To my surprise, this location has become a counter order system for both carry out and dine in. Lunch business was brisk, the lady at the counter said they were short staffed and items were coming out slow. The line was long. My party decided to eat inside. The food comes out in carry out bags, no plates and the quality was disappointing to say the least. The hot "hell-fire" chicken has two very tiny frozen chicken tenders and a lot of sauce. It made eating on the foil wrapper even more difficult. The fries were cold and the appetizer portions were barely enough for one person, but at full price. The food was not even mid. This concept is not working. This was not an enjoyable experience and I would not spend money here at this location. Olga's has a legacy! To the people who made these decisions to lessen quality, put out poor food and not have table service, you went down the wrong path! Please try to uphold the quality and provide a good experience for the customer. Honor the woman that built this business! All good things Do Not have to end!

    A "make it larger", double meat, light onion, extra sauce on sandwich & on the side (missing). Does this look worth $14?

    I'm so bummed. We have only done take out and have been supporting small business. Today we thought we'd support Michigan's own, even tho it's a chain, the sandwich in the picture below was an original Olga, "make it larger", double gyro meat, extra sauce, light onion & extra sauce on the side. It cost me over $13 for this one small sandwich. And it was cold! So we've decided we've given this chain enough chances. This was the last time we patronize Olga's. And I spent 2 days going back & forth with Gwen at their IT Dept because the app wouldn't let me log in or create a new sign in. 2 days only to be told I needed to sign in thru their old program (link was include), change my password and then sign in with the new password on the app. Too much work, too little food & poor quality. Three strikes, you're out, Olga's!

    Do a check-in on the Yelp app and get a free dessert! We ordered the Birmingham's Best Brownie, and it was tasty.

    My mom and I tried out this Olga's location today, because we had a gift card and planned on doing some shopping at 12 Oaks afterwards. I had never been to the Novi location - my local location is the Troy one - and this one was quite nice, decor-wise. It looked like it was newer or had been newly updated. Olga's used to have an unlimited soup, salad, and Snackers deal, but I didn't see it on the menu, so I asked the waitress about it ... it's still valid but is NOT listed on the menu, which IMO is kind of sneaky. It's $8.19 which is a great deal, price-wise, especially considering their normal salad + soup pairing (with a larger salad, to be fair) is $7.49. I ordered a grilled chicken Olga, but with the same toppings as the fried chicken one (garlic aioli, onion, and tomato). Once we sat down and ordered, it took about 30 minutes to receive our food, which seemed excessive - I was about to ask our waitress about it but then our food appeared. There were other little hitches during the meal, too - the waitress cleared our plates but never brought more utensils, so my mom had to ask for a spoon for her soup, and for another fork and knife at one point. I'm a huge fan of the Snackers and those were tasty per usual. My sandwich was also good, but for $7.99 (with no sides) it's on the pricer side. You can add curly fries or another side for $1.99, which would have brought it up to ~ $10. Overall, I wasn't really impressed with this Olga's, but because the food was good, I'd give it 3 stars out of 5. Waitservice was "average" at best (but really below average, because of a few issues throughout). I do like this location better than the Troy one, aesthetic-wise, but I've never waited as long for food at that location as we did here.

    Every time I come to this location there is always an issue, either bad service, out of spinach pie or something else.

    Food was room temperature and served far apart from each-other. Checks were split very incorrectly, definitely wanted to get out've there.

    Overall had a great dinner at Levantine Grill! We went for an early Mother's Day dinner and our…read morewaitress still gave us the free dessert which was super nice of her. The seating area looked nice and clean too. The food was good - I got the chicken shish kafta which was soft. Just needed some hummus with it and it was great! And I don't remember what it was called but there's a dish under lunch specials which has chicken and sauce on fries and it was SO good. Probably the best thing we had. However the other chicken dishes were dry - chicken sajji was hard to cut and so so dry even with all the sauce on it. And the chicken shish tawook was hard and dry. It was our first time and I wish our waitress had given us a little more help in what was a popular pick, she just kept saying everything tastes good. Which is fine but if we're genuinely asking, it's because we are actually looking for recommendations! Overall it was good but definitely not getting any grilled chicken because this experience was not great with it.

    The staff were very friendly and efficient. It is smaller than I thought but nicely decorated…read more We were there for a family luncheon. The hummus was one of the best I have had. The fattoush was very flavorful, the tabbouleh was lacking flavorful there wasn't any lemon, salt or olive oil on it. Falafel was good but I have had better. The platter was well cooked it had rice with meat and chicken shawarma, shish tawook, shish kabob, kefta, grilled veggies. Over all all of the food was great.
