Description

Really? But you hardly know us. Once you get past the cutesy name, there's a lot to peruse on this Kirkland restaurant's Mediterranean-themed menu. You can't possibly digest -- get ready -- olive it. You've got tapas, from fries to calamari to lamb chops. Sandwiches come in many forms, from gyros to burgers to falafel to wraps. Next, travel to the entrees, from moussakka to chicken parmigiana to blackened salmon to ahi tuna. Whew -- that's a lot, but there's more: souvlaki (chicken, lamb, beef or prawns) and even a few pasta dishes. Yes, Greenwood fans, this is the same Olive You that used to be in your 'hood. So, you see, love can be fleeting.
