The Olive Bistro - Salt Lake City

We went to The Olive Bistro on a Saturday night about 6:30pm. The was one other couple there and they were dancing romantically to the music. Interesting : We ordered a large Belgian beer followed by a chicken panini and a seafood salad. Beer was excellent. Chicken panini was 'the best I 've had in a long time '. The seafood salad was very good. Overall, staff was excellent and friendly. The location was perfect for a dinner before attending events directly across the street at the Capital Theatre. Highly recommended.

I was pleasantly surprised with how good this little bistro is, it reminded me of places I visited in Paris, I really liked their Greek chicken crepe and their Mediterranean salad, the place radiates with warmth, I will be back. Thanks

I don't usually write reviews, but I felt compelled to write one because I was so impressed with their food! We placed a takeout order and it surpassed our expectations. The ingredients were top quality and the flavors were fantastic!

How is this not more popular?. I ate here with a group of friends on a Friday night at 7:30 pm. There is always that hesitation to eat at a restaurant that is quite at that time of night, but we gave it a shot. So glad we did because this was some of the best food and service I have had in Salt Lake. We ordered an appetizer of cheese, meats, olives, and pita bread which was a nice starter with drinks. Then we had the special panino, chicken avocado with cheddar, and three different types of crepes. Everything was delicious! Then, we ended the meal with the creme brulee. It was better than I have ever had; made with real vanilla beans and homemade whipped cream. The food is definitely more for lunch (panini, crepes, salads) but is delicious and well priced at anytime! Why this place is not more popular, I have no idea.

If you haven't been to Olive Bistro, then go now. Excellent food all around. Nice wine list and very unique beer list. Everything is fresh with lots of organic ingredients. Excellent customer service and an owner who really cares about his customers.
