"I love the ambiance. Beautiful furniture and lighting. Soft jazz. Our waiter Monique was kind and attentive, not at all annoyed though we showed up 20 min before the lunch closing. Food was fine- I ordered the power salad which was mostly romaine and the toppings were sparse, no avocado (the online menu may have been out of date)."

"My wife and I stopped in for breakfast at Olive and Ira’s and really enjoyed it. Monique was welcoming, took great care of us, kept the coffee coming, and made some solid recommendations. The food came out fast and was even brought to the table by Missy, the cook, who was super friendly. The vegetarian omelet with fried potatoes and a biscuit was fantastic. Definitely a spot we’d come back to!"

"Olive & Ira’s was the perfect place to have a post-Orpheum birthday dinner! The pretzel sticks were delicious, the moscato was perfect, and my filet was cooked PERFECTLY to order. Our server Sam was exceptional and handled a busy show crowd better than anyone else could have! He made us feel so special and even put birthday candles into our blueberry bread pudding (which was DIVINE). 5 stars for sure!!"

"First time at Olive and Ira's, my wife and I both had salmon. Mine was blackened with fingerling potatoes and broccoli, hers grilled with brussel sprouts and butternut squash. The highlight of the meal was the butternut squash. I don't even like squash. I wish I could give a solid 4.5 stars for food. Cassie, our server, was GREAT. Very knowledgeable and transparent about our options. She did not steer us astray."

"We were late to our reservations & called to let them know. They were very accommodating on keeping our reservation. Sam was our waiter (only waiter) on Christmas Day & did a fantastic job. My S/O food came out lukewarm warm & they were happy to warm it up & offered us free dessert. We chose to opt out of dessert as we were full so Sam comped my Wine. Highly recommend this restaurant and please ask for Sam!"
