We have had excellent meals/dining expieriences at the Olive Tree. Quick service and great food. The matbucha is wonderful–flavorful, not too spicy with just the right kick. The salads are tasty and fresh. My kids enjoyed everything, especially the fries, chicken and falafel. My mother loved her Greek salad. Warm pita is in abundance. My husband loves the lamb kebob and mujadra. I love it all! Fresh and flavorful sums it up. There’s something there for everyone to enjoy.

This place has excellent food! I love the falafel and hummus. The tabouli salad is the best in town. Must tries are the spicy feta, matbucha and the eggplant salad, they are like no other. You must check it out. They have vegetarian dishes and meat dishes so everyone can enjoy the food.

This place is incredible!!! There whole menu is full of amazing flavor and great dishes. Everything is always made fresh which is fantastic!!! My opinion to try is the Spicy Chicken Gyro and Baba Ghanouj. If you haven’t visited The Olive Tree yet, I strongly recommend going there because you will not be disappointed!

Second the comments on the matbucha and the tabouli salad; great stuff!
Went there with a larger party ( 12 or so ) and the service was good. Went again with a smaller group and enjoyed it just as much. Excellent service and everything was very fresh. Top notch all around.

FOR THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
Just more than a year ago, David Mor went against advice and into the restaurant business for the first time - at the height of the recession. The Israeli opened Olive Tree in Hilliard with what the 59-year-old terms a Mediterranean menu. Despite his lack of experience, the former college academic and soccer coach assembled a well-run place.
