Ameera Shafique Pitted Olive has been our go-to spot for years now. We first happened to come across it a few years ago and ever since, it’s become our ritual stop before catching a flight — it’s so conveniently close to King’s Cross and the perfect way to start a holiday. This review is definitely overdue, especially considering how often we come here, but honestly every single visit has been superb. I almost always order the beef moussaka lunch, which comes with bulgur rice and mezze — so, so good. Everything tastes incredibly fresh, full of flavour, and because it’s already prepared and kept warm, it comes out super quickly (ideal when you’re on a bit of a time crunch). My only tiny moan (and it really is tiny) is that the refillable water glasses are on the smaller side — we drink a lot of water with our food, so we found ourselves taking turns getting refills. But honestly, that’s hardly a dealbreaker. Consistently great food, quick service, and a reliable favourite. We’ll keep coming back!!

Stephen Smieszek Thoroughly enjoyed my meal here. The ribeye was prepared medium rare and was perfect. Service was quick and efficient.

George Chalhoub Second time here and just as good! I came about 30 minutes before closing and the staff were really accommodating. Tried the J’s Classic — balanced, fresh, and delicious. The freshness and flavour of their plates really stand out.

Olivia Super cozy but cool atmosphere! The food was good, including amazing deserts!

Deepak Saxena We had breakfast here during our week long stay at the Hotel. We were attended by Bhashit who is a great guy, kind, patient and humble. He constantly tried very hard to make our experience more comfortable. He took our menu selections correctly and got our food promptly. His service was excellent and consistent.

Sandy Lai Perfect attentive service throughout and the food was really good! It would be nice if i the nigiri course was served at a slower speed. It felt a little too rushed. But it was our favourite course as the seafood was really fresh and we loved the sequence it was served. It keeps getting better! Seating by the bar counter could be improved too. It feels a little too cramped. Would highly recommend and go back again!
