The new Greek and Turkish restaurant is serving up dips, fresh seafood and baklava ice cream sandwiches.
room, with Turkish volcanic stone on the walls and Turkish runners on the tables, you’ll dig in to Mediterranean classics like hummus, tzatziki and calamari. Drawing from the Greek side of the restaurant’s repertoire are dishes like shrimp saganaki and lavraki, a delicate branzino fillet served with mixed greens. Meanwhile, the Turkish influence is found in bites such as paçanga pastry and two ezme dips.
Most of the menu’s focus is on mezze and small plates, but larger dishes run the gamut from trenette pasta with portobello mushrooms and truffle oil to a “surf n turf” plate with filet mignon and jumbo shrimp. Standby Mediterranean dishes like baby lamb chops with lemon potatoes are also on offer. And save room for dessert, particularly the baklava ice cream sandwich or the shredded phyllo knafeh.While White Olive plans to serve alcohol in the future, it’s still awaiting its liquor license.
White Olive is currently open seven days a week, from 5 to 11 pm. It will soon expand to lunch, starting at 11:30 am.
