Absolutely incredible food!! The new owner, Jimmy, has such clear passion and love for his cooking and it translates beautifully into every dish. My boyfriend and I went for lunch, we had the lasagna, chicken tortellini, and spinach dip. It was all beyond expected, the chicken was juicy and tender, the spinach dip was rich and creamy with the freshest spinach and artichoke flavors, the lasagna was by far the best I've had (I live in the SF Bay Area so we have some of the best food around and this easily hits that same level for me)! We chatted with the staff, all were friendly and incredibly helpful. The restaurant has that old Greek/italian almost Tuscan feel to it which I found very cute and comforting, ambience with the music and the sounds of the kitchen was perfect background for a truly exceptional meal. Will absolutely be recommending this place to everyone and coming back myself!! read more

Tonight I had the Greek combo platter which includes grilled chicken, grilled pork and gyro meat with mashed potatoes and pita slices with tzatziki sauce. It was very tasty, the meat was so good with the spices and the mashed potatoes were very good as well. This is more of a 4.5 out of 5. The waitress with the dark hair is always great as well. read more

I ordered their large cheese pizza. It was prepared in a timely manner and tasted great. I was greeted as soon as I walked in and they got me in and out in a few minutes. Friendly staff and clean restaurant. read more

Our local go-to spot for calzones! While I can't speak to the sit-down service since we always order to-go, our food is consistently prepared fast and on time. The calzones are delicious and offer great value, though the sizing and filling can be a bit inconsistent from visit to visit--one time two calzones were large enough to share, while another time a single order was much smaller. Inconsistent portions aside, the taste, quality, and local convenience keep us coming back. read more

All I can say is wow! I haven't had a calzone in many years, but I had one tonight. Who would have thought a simple cheese calzone could be so tasty! Crispy crust, delicious marinara and a great blend of cheeses....really enjoyed the meal and our server was warm and friendly. The only thing that would have made my dining experience better would be if they offered baklava! read more

This place is ok. We got sat right away. After we ordered drinks we ordered the fried mushrooms and a salad. We got the fried mushrooms but didn't get the salad. The spaghetti was good. The alfredo was ok. Definitely tasted canned. We got the check and saw the salad was on the ticket so we mentioned it to our server to take it off. He asked if he can pack one to go for us to take home. I assumed he asked so he didn't have to take it off the ticket. Umm...no. We don't want just one salad to take home! He ended up asking to take it off. Service was ok. read more

People are not friendly. A salad used to come with the meal now it is $5.00 extra. If you use a coupon they automatically charge a 20% tip which is more than the coupon. Is worth read more

We only ordered take out, so we say much for the experience and ambiance. But the lasagna was decent, maybe a tad bit too greasy but the flavor was there. The pizza was hot and fresh, and I could tell the tomato sauce was authentic, carrying tomato chunks and flavor. Except my main problem was the saltiness. Boy could I taste the salty cheese, pepperoni, and I suspect the tomato sauce as well. If it weren't for that, the pizza was overall well made with a nice thick crust. Maybe next time we'll get something better ! read more

Best pizza and eggplant Parmesian I've had at any restaurant...ever! The service is always quick and friendly. All in all it is a great little secret that Mauldin is keeping! read more

The wings were the best I've ever tasted. Unfortunately, an hour after eating, I experienced the food again... and it wasn't pleasant. I was sick all night and had to throw away the leftover pizza & wings. This was my first restaurant since moving to the area and it was a horrible experience. read more

I was in the mood for some good Italian so we decided to eat here for dinner. We were immediately greeted when we walked in, and the staff was very friendly. Our waitress was able to help one of us decide what to get, although she didn't seem to be in the very best mood haha. I got the spaghetti with meat sauce, which was pretty good; it would be high up on my list, but I've had better, at places like Milano and Paisano's. The rest of the family thought the food was decent as well. The ambience inside was a little lacking, with not much theming and the music stopping while we were there, creating an uncomfortable silence. We also tried to use a coupon, but were told we can't because apparently what we ordered didn't qualify, but that was stated in the fine print. Yes it was our fault, but we were told that multiple other people have had the same issue so maybe they should get that wording looked into. It was alright, but not amazing. read more

The food here is amazing! We had Wild Mushroom Ravioli and Shells Florentino. Absolutely delicious!

You know, when you walk into a restaurant and everyone in there is over the age of 60 you can assume it won't be the greatest. I'll keep this one short: this isn't good food. I ordered an eggplant parm sub with fries. It wasn't good. It was a very weird brown color (I'm assuming it wasn't fresh). The sub was mushy, wet, and tough. I'm going to go ahead and assume it's canned. I found it weird an eggplant parm sub didn't have fried eggplant. Yeah, I'd skip this one. read more

The mushrooms were hard and greasy and the lamb was gray and smelled like it was spoiled. Server didn't even ask how food was. Terrible experience. read more

I ordered a vegetarian pizza and everything about it is absolutely delicious! The price is decent too.

I've been sick twice off the food while I was working there and the prices keep rising. The restaurant also needs a deep cleaned

Enjoyed the lasagna and fried mushrooms "to go". Will go back and take wifey to dine-in. The front line attendants were extremely polite.

Placed order over the phone. Get to restaurant and tell them I'm there to pick up , the girl at register is in full panic mode and says I'm just going to tell you , you may not get the order they told me more orders. I said I've already placed the order 25 minutes ago . I'm not placing a new one , she said I know you see all these I took them before ( then pauses, looks at vi workers starts waving hands, too many people in front area ) then goes back and says see all these receipts these people placed orders before I knew no more orders. Then screams to other lady check to see where this order is it's my receipt, lady comes back in oven. She says to me it's in oven( pauses screams to back these people just going keep calling, what do I do) takes phone off hook, turns back to me says you gotta wait it's in oven. I've never see. Such chaos in my life , I finally got food and it was so spicy we could hardly eat it . I git a steak combo it was so overloaded with oregano that's all I could taste . I could understand if this was close to closing but this was 7:30 pm and they are open till 9:30, the place was turning away customers to dine in and I heard lady say well we aren't getting out with all these call in orders setting here. If they were short staff , then tell people in calm manner unfortunately we are short staff and can't accommodate anymore orders or guest tonight . They had three ladies in the front cashier pick up window acting so irrational that everyone was just starring at all this drama. Will not go back and don't recommend. read more

Third review, second update, first din in experience since Covid reopening allowed. Met with a great greeting by the hostess/cashier and we were asked to seat every other table. They table was sanitized and everything on the table removed and replaced (eg, salt & pepper shakers). Menus sanitized between patrons. Warm welcome, great service, thrilled to be in dining room dining! Food was good, but who would complain after two months of dining in deprivation? Felt normal! Finally felt normal! Plus, another patron paid our bill before we left, so this was just a super win win win! read more

Salads are great!! Love me some of that House Dressing. I normally bring my dressing bottle and buy some for later.

I ate here for years on lunch breaks. It's been two years since I'd been here after changing jobs and I'm pleased to say it's as delicious as ever. Service was quick and friendly for a Saturday lunch, although I do remember they get pretty busy during weekday lunch hours. Everything was fresh and delicious. I always get the Greek Salad with chicken and their house dressing is so good. The chicken is marinated and tender. We also grabbed some cheesecake and tiramisu to take home, I'm hoping it's as good as all their food. I've had pizza, pasta, sandwiches here and never had a single complaint. read more

The Owner is RUDE and placed little if any value on his customers. My family and I had dinner here this evening and when checking out found the owner to be rude and almost belligerent. There are so many great restaurants in the area with great atmosphere and welcoming of customers. Choose a place where you will enjoy dinner. the ambience, while being appreciated as a patron - THIS IS NOT THAT RESTAURANT!!. It's Not Even Close. read more

Amazing fresh Italian food. It's worth the wait. The menu is full of options from pizza to ravioli. read more

Love this place. Always good service and tasty food. The chicken Olive tree was very tasty!

This is a the best place for subs and pizzas. This is my favorite go to for a steak and cheese sub. To be honest in other places subs always look nasty and soggy but not at Olive Tree. Besides the wonderful food, all team members are very nice and friendly, including the owner when he pops out to talk to everyone. Everyone should go and support this amazing local small business! read more

I used GrubHub to order this so it is a review based solely on taste. I first started with the garlic bread. It is a very soft, tasty loaf. Then I dove into the chicken. It is a very rich tasting, saucy delight. This is one of the best chicken parmigiana I have ever had. I would highly recommend this! read more

Excellent local eatery. We get the Chicken Olive Tree with greek potatoes and the cheeseburger. We love the food. Also, the 7 payer chocolate cake is to die for. We ordered to go. The side salad that comes with the entree is terrible but everything else is fantastic! read more

This place could easily be missed. Nothing special with the location or the atmosphere. We came because someone recommended it from many years ago and had good memories of this place. So we thought we would try it. The pasta was good, salads were good, service was good, but the calzones were AMAZING and HUGE!! We will be back for those calzones!! read more

This food gave me and my dog food poison for days, I did order off door dash, but that wasn't the problem the driver had to wait on it and let me know she was at the store. The wait was long, the food tasted okay but was not okay. Will not be back read more

We found Olive Tree in Mauldin during the height of Covid, after things opened again. We have ordered multiple things at multiple times. It has been fantastic. Unfortunately today might have been an off day, maybe new staff, or just tired staff but the quality of the wings we got tonight were.. well in one word.. chalk! Cooked beyond done the devil himself would choke on these wings! I'm going to try it again because I understand the restaurant game. But come on show some pride in your food. Our pizza was really good though this one instance doesn't condemn them for me and don't let it for you either. Just check wings for some kind of juicyness. read more

One of our new favorites in the area. Great food, great service, good prices. We stopped in for a quick dinner. My husband ordered the combo and raved about the flavorful lamb and pork. He ate every bit. We ordered a kids' lasagna for the toddler. It was big enough for an adult; very well seasoned and covered in bubbly cheese. My small Greek salad with grilled chicken was fresh and just the right size. The house dressing is awesome. We'll be back. Gonna try the pizza next time. read more

The pizza was nice but it was cold and the crust had no flavor. Not a lot of sauce either. Very slow service.

I used to live right behind this place. Not great, not bad, just some where in between. Pretty decent selection of food, and the servers are friendly enough (most of the time), but I have to be honest, the food wasn't really doing anything for me here. It's kind of a mix of Italian and greek, both of which are pretty mediocre. The sizes are decent, and the price is a bit more than a meat and three. If it were me, I'd sooner get a meat and three. read more

Good food and great service. The pizza, subs and other Greek-forward dishes are good and is comparable to any similar restaurant. It have my favorite dish and don't tend to deviate much from it. read more
