Reviews for Olives at Building 160 in Stanford, CA
Amazing service from Carmen! Highly recommended
Too much sour cream it was weird.
takes meal plan dollars but food always runs out
Fake Mediterranean food. The falafel patties look like they escaped from the freezer! They are too small too. The tahini sauce... is off, too citrus. The shawarma spies are also off, I guess they use fajita spices in Shawarma! What they call Greek salad isnothing but low quality romaine lettuce with a drizzle of an awfully mixed vingarrette. I order a pasta and quinoa salad andasked if they can add some olive oil on top. Guess what? This so called Mediterranean restaurant has no olive oil bottle lyingaround. It is a shame. Read more
It gets very busy, but the food is super top notch and the kitchen staff is always sweet and smiling - even if customers are... annoying. Cashiers aren't so friendly, but it's not a huge factor to my experience Read more
Food: 2 Decor: 3 Service: 4 Grabbed the falafel plate, 7 from here for lunch. Overall, pretty mediocre. They also had beef and... lamb gyros, as well as chicken skewers. Chicken skewers were pre-cooked, and they didn't look too appetizing. Read more
Disappointing. Boiled rice is not pilaf. It's just boiled rice. Mashing a can of chickpeas does not make hummus. There's salt,... lemon, tahini,cumin and garlic in hummus. At least some salt. Gyro meat should be sliced thin, not in fist sized chunks. Sourcream is not tzaziki sauce. Terrible. Never again. Read more
Definitely one of the better locations to grab a quick sandwich or meal on campus. This location is a bit hard to find and not... well advertised. If you enter the quad main entrance, follow the diagonal path to the left and pass under the two arches thepath leads to, then Olives will be on your left. Plenty of outdoor seating here and usually not too long of a wait. Thesandwiches are worth it, salmon is not. Most come with a salad too! Read more
