Good family run restaurant with good Greek food options.
Newly decorated restaurant done to a very high standard looks very nice and comfortable.
Recently went with the family and tried their meat meze.
Dip starters are average where other Greek restaurants tend to make them home made which taste much better. The prawns and calamari are a nice addition to the all meat meze. The chicken, pork souvlakia at the end are nicely marinated and soft which by then you are full from all the food before. Overall, a decent meze with a nice atmosphere which is just right where you can hear yourself talking unlike other restaurants where the music is too loud or the restaurant is too compact it's too loud.
Improve the starters and maybe add something different in the middle of the meze as well and this would be a winner.

I would like to take the opportunity to "over-write" some negative reviews about this restaurant I have read previously. if anyone in doubt- please don't be, as it is indeed a fantastic place to have a meal with the family.we celebrated my daughter's birthday there today, and everything was faultless: the professionalism and friendliness of all staff (we were looked after by 5 members), personal touch with regards to birthday cake and our enjoyment generally, but most importantly, how lovely the food was: nicely presented, tasty and authentic. I had many fish mezees before, today I had the best. thank you Blue Olive, for making my daughter's birthday special.

I have used and still use this restaurant everytime we visit UK, having moved to Cyprus it has not stopped me eating at the restaurant, food is fantastic wine great selection and staff were tiptop, Once i had a slight problem with a bit of meat which was chewy they took what was left of meal away and returned with with a full replacement meal and a free Keo. I would recommend this restaurant to all my family and friends and give it 10/10. may I sugest that if anyone has a problem with anything at the restaurant they talk to the staff and not jump on thecomputer at a later time to slate them without proof. Oh and we will be back in UK for xmas and will be eating there. Andy & Mandy Anderson

I am Greek I have eaten in many many Greek restaurants in Greece Cyprus and uk and this is not the best but it is very good in have eaten there on Saturday night and Sunday I was more than happy with staff and food I think possible other reviews these people have no idea what good food is. I like it and my wife who is now a house wife but was a top chef up the west end agrees it 1 of the better Greek restaurants out there

Great evening with friends, group of 10 of us. Service was exemplary and so was the food. Haven't been for ages but won't be leaving it so long next time. Back in love with this place, thank you The Blue Olive.

I've eating here many times and the food has always been on point. I've attended with friends and family and neither have been disappointed. The food always tastes good and there is a variety to choose from. We mainly go for the meze as it has a mixture of dips, fish and meat dishes. The portions are reasonable sized.

Tried the fish meze at blue olive and it was great. You get quite a good selection of fish. My favourite items were octopus, swordfish and calamari. I visited when it was relatively empty at around 4pm (pre-dinner rush) and the service was good but service is expectedly slower during busier times, so definitely worth factoring.

Food is delicious but service is truly exceptional. Was there yesterday and the lovely young man with glasses made sure we had an amazing Sunday meal. Will definitely be coming back!

So we heard about this Geek Restaurant online being one of the best in London. And the food is excellent 👌. Good size portions and well priced, tastes of Cyprus/ Greece on a plate. The setting is lovely and the staff so so friendly.

Lovely atmosphere, staff and food. Had the meze and it was all so tender. Only thing I would say is food needed a bit of salt (I know this is preference) also the prawns were very soft but needed some sort of flavour - was hoping for a bit of garlic rather than just a cooked prawn. Again, very tender food just not as full of flavour as I would have hoped. Meze on the reasonable side and you do get a lot of food but drinks are quite expensive £6 for a large beer and £3 for a bottle of Coke - but that's Cockfosters I suppose. Desserts were lovely and the baklava was 10/10 - just very small. Will be back, but hoping there is a few more herbs and spices on the food.
