This is my second time dining at Black Olive. The food is excellent, both fresh and well prepared, and the service from all the staff is great. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

We arrived a bit early for an already early reservation - team was very welcoming! Food was fabulous and great drinks along with a bottle of red wine. Price including drinks, wine appetizer and a dessert was quite reasonable for two people. Highly recommend as a place off the tourist area!

Good place if you are meat/ kebab lover. The place stated as Mediterranean, but I would say Turkish- so good meat, hummus and a lot of traditional meze. All was tasty! But don’t expect much from the wine list.

We arrived at our reservation time and found the restaurant very crowded. We were taken to an adjoining restaurant next door, same owners and same food. We had an incredible experience. Wonderful service and delicious food and the best part was how inviting and kind the owner was! He made my husbands birthday dinner above and beyond what we could have expected! Truly a must go to while in Amsterdam. Made our first dinner in amsterdam a true special experience and we won’t forget it.

It’s very different from pictures. There’s no quality food. It’s like a restaurant to have lunch between your day work.

We really enjoyed our meal at this restaurant, the food was amazing and presented beautifully. Staff were polite and helpful . As we had to wait to get our table it would have been preferable it there had been a seated area rather than standing in the doorway.

Absolutely Amazing! It was full, jam packed. We arrived 10minutes over to our time and the table was ready. Ordered 2 warm starters which came to our table with 10 minutes after I placed my order. Main coursed arrived right after my starters were done. Food was delicious, warm and fresh. Price very reasonable and portions are huge. Will definitely return!!!

The staff here are attentive, helpful and efficient. We had a mezze which was appetising and tasty. The wine wasn’t anything special. We were going to the ballet so it was a good location for that, BUT…. It was full of big parties - 10-20 per table which meant it has quite a ‘party’ loud atmosphere. Great if you’re in a party- not so good if you’re not ????‍♀️
