The Green Olive

Great service. The prices were a tad high (but we ordered a la carte instead of the lunch deal truthfully). Each regular Greek dish (I.e.: hummus, olives, gigantes and even roast chicken) had a slightly nuanced altered taste. The Greek beer was good. Portions were fine. It’s just that the flavors were a little unexpected. Go here if you’re feeling adventurous. The garlic pita was comforting and the Calamari appetizer was light and crisp.

Very good food, nice location and atmosphere. A few very good options for vegans.

We ate here on the last Sunday lunchtime before Christmas, and were amazed to find it virtually empty. Well, that’s a shame for those who chose somewhere else, because our lunch was superb. I almost changed my mind when the waitress by the door failed to help us through the entrance with our pram. But after that, I have to say, she was absolutely excellent. Plus, the place was smart, stylish and immaculate inside. My wife and I both had moussaka with the fried potatoes and some garlic pitta. Beautiful, indeed. And it all came out promptly, and well presented. I know most of their menu is all about the little mezes dishes, but we just fancied the moussaka on such a wintery day, so that’s all I can comment on. The other niggle, though not something to knock off a star for, was that we sat in near-​oppressive silence for half of our meal. We were just wondering whether to ask for some background music, when they must have read our minds and switched some on! It certainly cheered the place up a bit with so few diners in and added some much-​needed atmosphere. Glad to find the place, and look forward to going again. A real travesty that we then passed places that seemed much fuller, but can’t have been as nice. Perhaps a factor is Green Olive’s location being those extra thirty paces just beyond where the shops seem to stop.

One of my favourites in windsor great with a group of friends, or on a date… flexible with the fixed meze (and i wouldnt go for anything else. its varied, gives you a taste of pretty much everything and most things are really yummy!)… went with a muslim friend and they were happy to replace the meat stuff with fish and veggie alternatives.
Have often been among the last tables there– and they never rush you out– but often bring round shots of a scary, but delicious, liquor
friendly waiting staff, some interresting, and very affordable winesall in a great place!

Only been to the Green Olive restaurant once and the restaurant was pretty empty, so it lacked atmosphere. Having said this the meze was tasty and portion sizes were good. The menu was also very comprehensive. Service was attentive and good. Prices were fair.

Great meze we love the dolmades, potato salad, mousaka, spanakopitta and kleftico to name but a few. This is just past the Parish Church, so less likely to be found by the hordes of Windsor tourists. If you want to introduce young children to something different, meze is a good way to start, and this remains a firm favourite with our kids.
