    Great place to meet new people and enjoy live music! The people are always friendly and staff is great. Olives is always showing the games and cater to all crowds.

    Olives is a really cool place. Its seems like the age range is 21-50's. Olives is a good place to grab drinks after work, have dinner with family/friends/couples, or to party at night. They have awesome live music on some nights. The food is very good but limited. There aren't a lot of choices. Drinks are good; many choices for beer. Beers are $4-7.

    food and service was poor: My pizza was fine. My friend's rib-eye was a well-done when he had asked for medium-rare. They offered to get him another one, and the next steak was also well-done. He was not very happy with that.

    And the service was poor. The waitress was not friendly and service was slow. But the worst part of it was that after we had paid for our meal and were waiting for the waitress to give us our receipt, the manager asked us to leave because people were waiting for our table! I could understand being asked to leave if we had gotten our change and were just lounging around and asking for more refills of water all night, but we were just waiting for our change. I have never been asked to leave like that. I was disappointed in the overall experience and will not return.
