Great flavours at an unassuming authentic Greek restaurant. Amanda was a very pleasant and helpful host, and the price was also reasonable for the serving sizes. When in Halifax, you better check out this place.

The food here is absolutely amazing, but the service is a whole other level. Jimmy the owner is beyond friendly giving such a welcoming atmosphere easily able to make conversation and joke with the customers. Our waitress Amanda was so very kind and just as welcoming. You can tell that there number one priority is guest experience. I first came to this place 6 years ago when visiting the city and since moving here I have been back many more times. I recommend it to everyone that comes to visit me and they all leave extremely satisfied and ready to pass on the word of Halifax’s best kept secret. 100% recommend

Always a delicious meal. I was alone and felt bad holding up a table, but nothing was going to stand between me and the Chicken Spanakopita. So glad it is on the menu. Way back, it was only available on Fridays.

I had been wanting to to try Blue olive for a while and it did not disappoint. I was in for lunch yesterday, loved that both menus were available. Great spot, service was friendly. Food was delicious and fresh. The owner Dimitri was very nice as he came over to make conversation and make sure everything was good. Will definitely be coming back! Thank you!
