Strange name, great food 6th November 2008

A bit of bizarre name for an indian canteen, but don't let that put you off.

The food is great, service quick and polite. No frills decor and some great lunch deals.

My local take out and it's great 4th May 2008

This is my local take away (and yes, before you ask, people do live in the West End) and as well as being a genuinely nice bunch of people they impress me in two ways.

Firstly the food is great. Strong, rich flavours and more subtle dishes sit side by side perfectly. Crisp, fresh popadoms and warm naans all cooked fresh.

Secondly, The Food Standards Agency gave them 4 stars, which is the same score as they awarded Gordon Ramsey’s at Claridges. The Ivy scored just 3 stars so well done Olives!

I’ve tried all the take outs in the area and Olives has the best food and they rarely get your order wrong. You can eat in and the décor is clean and bright, if a little bland. Still worth it for the food though!
