Everything about our visit today was excellent! The space is cute, the staff was super friendly and the food was really good. They brought us an extra coffee that was made by mistake which was really nice. Multiple people checked in on us the entire time even though it wasn't a full service restaurant. Our food came out really quickly and everything about my Mediterranean plate was excellent. My husband really liked his tuna melt as well. They actually have 3 locations even though Yelp only lists the Riverside location, we went to the one on Olive. They had easy parking with validation. We would definitely stop here any time we're nearby. read more

Unfortunately, I was disappointed with my visit. They charged me extra for the salmon, without even specifying how I wanted it. It was served separately from the main course and grilled, whereas I was expecting fresh salmon. Furthermore, I paid about $50 for breakfast--coffee and a sandwich--which I consider unreasonably high for such a setting. Unfortunately, I don't plan to return. read more

Loved my experience at Olive & Thyme!!! Service was quick and friendly and the food was delicious. They ran out of their freshly pressed orange juice by like 10am but I was lucky enough to try their fresh lemonade which was delicious. I had their egg white scramble and dirty chai latte which were both delicious. The egg white scramble tasted good with the cheese and sourdough toast additions. The portion was enough for two!!! I can't wait to try the rest of their menu. They also cater events if you're interested. Highly recommend Olive & Thyme for your brunch needs!!! read more

This is such a cute brunch place and truly enjoyed my time with my girlfriends. I got the green goddess avocado plate. It was refreshing going through this plate and like how there is a grilled lime to compliment the whole dish. The green goddess dressing was well excuted. My friend also enjoyed their dishes. I thought their latte wasn't too special, wish they house made their syrups. I opted for the sugar free vanilla and it was ok. The prices are quite high for the portion size. You order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. Service was really good. Plenty of free street parking around the area. read more

Olive & Thyme - GREEN GODDESS CHICKEN AVOCADO PLATE Tater tots - Sandwiches Near Me - Toluca Lake, California

Nice place, service was ok. Prices are a bit high for the amount of food you get, but I guess that's standard these days. I had a chicken sandwich. Ok..tater totes were delicious. Wife had avocado toast. It was good. Service was good. This place must be packed on weekends and lunch crowd. Small area that sells candles , kids toys ect. The lights in this area flicker which bothered my and my wife's eyes. So we didn't look too much. read more

Carne asada tacos were delicious. It had a thin crunchy shell. Carne was tender. It had a very fresh taste with pico de gallo, guacamole and pickled red onions. Tried an Oreo cookie and blueberry muffin. Probably the best muffin I ever had. Oreo cookie was perfect too. Slight crunch but chewy. Everyone there was super friendly and sweet. The staff immediately puts me in a good mood. The place is quite large. Lots of tables for 2, 4 or a picnic table for 6. The aesthetic was super clean and cute. When fully packed it is LOUD. I had to scream my conversation. NOT recommended for hard of hearing. Parking is a nightmare! There is no parking garage like I thought. I did go on Saturday, maybe it's open during the week. The restaurant is near WB. If you need ADA parking or are limited on mobility I do not recommend. Take a friend and have them drop you off. read more

I'm a regular here, but this was my first time trying their side of bacon, and it was perfection! Thin-cut, perfectly cooked, crispy, and deliciously salty. I don't usually compare bacon, but this was so perfectly suited to my taste that I didn't even feel guilty eating it. Every bite was better than the last! Avocado toasts are always delicious and the perfect portion. I love both of them, highly recommend! read more

Olive & Thyme - AVOCADO & BURRATA TOAST POACHED EGG TOAST Side of Bacon - Sandwiches Near Me - Toluca Lake, California

I had the breakfast burrito. I was clean, fresh and executed perfectly. Every ingredient was dialed, perfectly scrambled eggs, crispy bacon and tater tots, super fresh and creamy avocado. Lightly grilled tortilla wrap. They let the ingredients speak for themselves. Maybe not the most creative offering, but good, wholesome and fresh. The atmosphere is delightful. The staff were on the ball and service was efficient. Thanks olive & Thyme. read more

Olive & Thyme - Pancakes, BREAKFAST BURRITO, latte and side of bacon - Sandwiches Near Me - Toluca Lake, California

Very cute breakfast/brunch/lunch spot in Toluca Lake area! Tables are open seating and orders are placed on the register. The person on the register was very friendly and we had a great time interacting with him. Unfortunately we forgot to ask for his name. The rest of the staff were very friendly and assisting. Service was pretty fast even though it was peak lunch time. I ordered the avocado toast with poached eggs and arugula salad. I absolutely loved the bright, tangy dressing on the arugula. It highlighted the arugula really nicely. The eggs were perfectly poached and the yolk was actually very vibrant. So much so that I had to pause and comment how vibrant it was. There were also red peppers under the egg, so if it's too much of a kick, feel free to scrape some off. I also had their lemon bar and their matcha latte. Good matcha, but the lemon bar won me over. Not too sweet, good crumble, it was a great dessert for a sunny day. Would be back to try other things on the menu. read more

I absolutely enjoy the experience of Olive and Thyme. It has modern, cozy farm house vibes, the food is incredible, the refreshments/beverages/lattes are incredible, service is great and pricing is actually very fair for the quality and quantity of the food you receive. I ordered the Green Goddess Chicken Avocado plate and there's no way to describe how amazing this dish is! It is made with what i beleive is Tarragon which can be a new flavor to most people, but my friends all tried some of my dish and really liked it as well! My friends got the Crispy Chinese Chicken and California Chicken Sandwich which they all really liked. They also all ordered drinks, one got the Watermelon refresher, one got lavender lemonade and the other ordered a iced latte. Every one left very full and satisfied. The ambiance is so nice, though a bit cramped since it is on the smaller end of cafes, it still just feels cozy! We did come around 2:00pm which made it wasy for us to find seating, but I have come earlier and it is very hard to find a place to sit. The only complaint I have is the lack of parking. Please visit this spot, you won't regret it! read more

This was an absolute out standing find! Like a step into a little Italian Market. Hope you get a chance to sit at the coffee bar for the best seat in the house. The staff were very nice and helpful. You order at the counter and sit wherever you like The food portions were not the best but the quality was amazing! I had the BLT and the sandwich definitely did not have enough bacon. read more

I love this place. I usually go for sweets for brunch, but the breakfast burrito caught my eye on the menu and when seeing it served to another guest. Alas, I passed on the scrumptious-looking Nutella Pancakes! The breakfast burrito had everything I love in a savory breakfast--bacon, scrambled eggs, avocado, tater tots, cheddar cheese, and a delicious green salsa! Being the condiment aficionado I am, I asked for a side of ketchup and mayo and boy did I have one of the best brunch outings in a while. 10/10. The coffee is robust and you get free refills. Win. Win all-around. Those sweet treats from the dessert case and the quiche are still calling my name, the latter looked heavenly from my friend's plate. Olive and Thyme, I'll be back! read more

Olive & Thyme is a great spot for a quick breakfast! You order at the counter and they bring your meal to your table. O & T is very clean! It also has tons of space if it's just yourself or a larger group. On my first visit, the counter staff is very friendly and the kitchen pushed out meals at a great pace. We had a vegan meal in our group. The counter entered our order correctly, but the kitchen made an error. The runner who brought our meal was made aware of the mistake and the kitchen made it right immediately! Great meals, friendly and competent staff will bring me back when I'm in town again! read more

I came a few months ago and got short rib tacos from the special list and really liked them so when I came again I ordered the Crispy short rib tacos. This is my mom's favorite restaurant so she was so happy I finally found something I liked but they were totally different this time. The short rib was very dry and stringy and also had a lot of fat. I didn't have to pull any fat out the previous time and this time I probably pulled 1/2 the meet out and didn't finish any of it. I don't know if it was a different special before but this seemed totally different and just not good at all. The service was not great either and seemed to be a lot it confusion going on with the kitchen/staff. They "lost" one of our orders completely and then found it and it was a much smaller portion than usual. Overall maybe it was just an off day and it happens but going forward I'll just be accompanying my mom and not ordering anything. read more

Fantastic restaurant to grab a quick bite to eat. Food is definitely made with quality ingredients, and lots of healthy options to choose from. Many salads, and sandwiches to choose amongst the menu. Quick service restaurant. You order at the counter, grab a seat and the wonderful wait staff delivers it to your table. The wait staff is very helpful, and quickly cleans off tables, as it does get very busy. The clean and cafe style ambiance of the restaurant is very welcoming. The salads are all very fresh tasting and made to order. Most salads are fairly large and filling. They also have some ready made deli salads that you can order from as well. Great place for groups and quick lunches. read more

Great spot for lunch. Validated parking under the building. You place your order at the counter, and they give you a number. Find a table (we thought it was going to be difficult but turnover was quick) and the food is delivered. There are seats inside, and a small patio also. The avocado toast was delicious! The eggs were perfectly poached and runny. Bright orange yolks and creamy ripe avocado with chili flakes on toasted sourdough. Plus an arugula side salad. My husband had the short rib sandwich with horseradish aioli and was in heaven. Others had Cobb salads, and a turkey pesto sandwich. Everyone was very happy with the food. The only sort of let down were the fries. They looked super crunchy, but they actually weren't too crisp. They did taste good though. It's really cute inside too. Lots of items for sale, like cookbooks, candles, gourmet food items, etc. They also have baked goods. My 12 year old cousin was over the moon at his giant Nutella stuffed croissant. Everyone who works there is so nice! Like, extremely friendly and attentive. It was a pleasure dining there. read more

Olive and Thyme is an aesthetically appealing, upscale, clean, ideal brunch/lunch spot in the Toluca Lake neighborhood. Though street parking is a bit difficult during the busy rush hours. The restaurant has a lot of classic character and is maintained nicely. Their menu compliments their aesthetic as they offer many healthy options, gourmet coffees, and fresh salads. They have options in the salad bar, regular menu, as well as daily specials. It was a line when we went in, but the food came out rather quickly and it was no problem to enjoy the lavender latte's (off menu) first. read more

Sadly for the 3time, I was over charged for my meal. My guest and I each ordered a breakfast item, and separately lattes, but charged additionally for "meal with Coffee". This maybe only be approximately $5 more for each coffee. but plus tax and gratuity, when breakfasts are $60 for 2 ppl, it appears to be more of a scam to take advantage of guests living w healthy incomes in this business neighbood. Sadly, I drive in about an hour every other week to take meetings and don't occupy myself to check the itemized bill til i leave. The hours open early, food is pretty, the environment clean, service friendly. But this is the 3rd time I was slyly over charged. I'll take my business to SWEET BUTTER or AEIRLOOM BAKERY instead where I can trust the billing. read more

This is an adorable place that I wish I had tried earlier. The restaurant exudes a welcoming atmosphere with its spacious layout and abundant natural light streaming in through large windows. The personalized decorations add a special touch, making it a perfect setting for my book club meet up with friends. I wish they offered more options for substituting pork in their breakfast burritos. Although the burrito was delicious without any meat, it could have been even better with additional choices. As a Muslim, I always appreciate when breakfast places cater to dietary restrictions, so I hope they consider adding more options in the future. The mocha was smooth and delicious and I would definitely return for that again. The only regret I have is not saving room for all the wonderful pastries that were there. Can't wait to return to try the other items. read more

Had a delightful experience at Olive & Thyme during the holiday week leading up to Christmas and New Years! Not sure if it was the holiday spirit or what but the restaurant staff were all extra nice and chirpy. We came by for a weekend lunch and were able to find a table pretty quickly. The interior is cute and local neighborhood-y type with high ceilings that made it feely airy and spacious. Glossed over the menu before we hopped to the register to order our meals of choice. I opted for the Asian chicken salad to keep things light and healthy. The salad was mediocre - the portion size was small with minimal chicken - nothing special to this item. What helped was that an employee dropped by and gave our group a free oreo cookie and some holiday chocolates. 'Tis the season for giving! The ambiance and service were on point, the food portions are a bit on the smaller size. Nonetheless, Olive & Thyme treated us well. read more

This is my favorite place by the office but for the first time l am severely disappointed when I got back to my office and I basically paid for a $22 (w/tax and tip) lettuce sandwich w/tuna on the side. Don't know if they caved in to shrink flation but they used to be very generous with the tuna salad but this is unacceptable for that price. This is the last time I'm ordering this or even come here. read more

Olive & Thyme - All lettuce and someone skimped on the tuna. - Sandwiches Near Me - Toluca Lake, California

Had brunch here with my wife, our first time visiting. The inside is super cute. Unfortunately the food experience was less than expected. My wife ordered the breakfast bagel sandwich which is described as egg, sausage, cream cheese , and yellow cheddar. What came was egg, cream cheese, tomato, and avocado. I ordered the egg white scramble with gluten free bread (+$3) as I have a significant gluten allergy. Regular bread was given and I'm glad I asked to confirm because that would have literally wrecked my day. They gave me a fresh plate and my wife sausage on the side but those are significant order issues. The food allergy in particular needs to taken seriously. Once the order was fixed, the food was good. read more

Another day another olive and thyme takeout order. The Salmon Miso Bowl was definitely a lot better than the first thing I ordered. The salmon didn't have much flavor, the sauce saved it. There was an obscene amount of rice so if you want this to be a filling meal then it will be. Perhaps one of these days I'll sit in to have a better review of the service and ambiance of the place but I will say again it's definitely a cute vibe so I'd eat in if you can! read more

Olive & Thyme - Salmon Miso Bowl - Sandwiches Near Me - Toluca Lake, California

In short: food is delicious but pricey, restaurant is clean, seating is hmmm fine... I will come again! Olive and thyme is an order at the counter & sit style of restaurant. Friendly staff will bring the food to your table when it's ready. Only complaint with this style is it's hard to determine tip up front when you haven't had any interaction besides with the (hit or miss) cashier. I'd describe the seating ambience as.. let's say farmhouse? Well nicer than a farm house. Very Clean tables and chairs but they are wooden and feel a bit cheap. There are a couple very large tables and a picnic bench as well so there's plenty of seating for large parties. Forks, knives, and napkins are already in a basket at the table with enough for at least 3 turnovers (take that as you wish). If you're like me, food is what you really judge on. And overall the food is great but pricey for the quantity. You get your moneys worth in quality though! They have a full coffee bar which is perfect with pairing breakfast with a delicious latte or cap it off with espresso if you prefer. I've had both breakfast and lunch here and either way, you can't go wrong! Breakfast brioche sandwich has a beautifully thick and buttery toasted brioche with an over medium egg, cheese, perfect bacon, and one of the best aiolis I've had. Breakfast burrito is very flavorful, great mix of ingredients, but a bit on the smaller side for the price. For lunch the BAT is my go too. Very fresh ingredients of heirloom tomatoes, aioli, avocado, and bacon! Love it. Get the side of fries too. Check their hours as they don't work for everyone and go give them a try! read more

I have been here several times. That should tell you something. It's good - not fabulous, but good.

I'm not usually a brunch/sandwich spot kind of person, but the sandwiches they have here are tops. They get the "bread - greens - protein" ratio just right in my opinion.

What an adorable cafe! Love the French inspired decor and all the goodies to peruse. I found the menu to be limiting, given my dietary goals, and opted for the shredded chicken omelet with spinach and a matcha latte. Both were good. Cashier was hilarious and did a great job of putting smiles on faces. And, clean up was swift and friendly. This place would be perfect if they had more healthy/lighter options and some music for ambiance. Will definitely return, though. read more

Food: Most of it looked great on paper. I got the egg white scramble. There ingredients looked fresh but it lacked flavor. Do the chefs not know how to season properly? Doesn't need to be salt either. And for $21 !!!! it should've been a lot better. $21 is way too much for a small portion for half of the egg and a few other common ingredients. The service is minimal. You order at the counter and someone delivers your food and I tipped on that before I even had the full experience. That's not how tipping works. I've been in the service industry for decades. I tip on the product and the service. The ambiance is boring and the seating is hard and uncomfortable. As usual the tables are not level like pretty much any place you go these days. No one goes around before opening to make sure the feet are level. Half of the space is taken up by stuffed animals and unnecessary ceramics/pottery etc. Is there a household anywhere that doesn't already have enough of the latter? I do not recommend this place. First impressions are everything. read more

Very cute spot! I had time until my appointment and came across this. I hadn't been here before but great find. They were busy but fast and efficient. I didn't get to try their food, but will be back for it. I had the iced vanilla latte and it was good. Not the best, but good. It was too milky for my taste, I do wish the coffee was a bit stronger. I'll be asking for an extra shot next time. I recommend trying it! read more
