Nineveh Assyrian

We used Nineveh as a caterer for a big birthday party. They catered for 100 people and the food was exceptional. We did the Shawarma Bar and it was affordable and delicious and provided more than enough food for what we needed. Everyone raved about it and wanted to know where we got the good. Delivery was easy, communication was a breeze, and again amazing food! We had contemplated other catering options in Olympia and I really think that Nineveh has everyone beat for both price and quality.

Lamb and beef shawarma salad is a must try! Love this place!

My hubby and I went for lunch on a Monday. He ordered the falafel sandwich and a cola and I had the lamb and beef shawarma sandwich and the fried cauliflower with z'atar aioli. Everything was prepared to order and you could see the beef and lamb roasting on a spit in the truck. The staff was friendly and accommodating to my request to add extra sauce to my sandwich and they dis not charge extra for it. My husband loved his falafel sandwich which came with picked veggies inside and just a touch of hot sauce that added to the flavor but wasn't overwhelming. My beef and lamb shawarma sandwich also had fresh veggies, the meat was flavorful and delicious. The fried cauliflower was piping hot, super crispy and the z'atar aioli was the perfect accompaniment. I wrapped up my lunch with a piece of baklava which was crispy, not too sweet, nicely spiced and super yummy. Terrific meal and we'll definitely be back! Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian options. Parking: we had no trouble parking but were there at 11am on a Monday which may have not been as busy as other times.

The chicken shawarma sandwich is honestly one of my favorite things to eat in Olympia. I haven't tried most of their other offerings because I typically stick with a thing I like when I find it when talking about food. The service is hit or miss; if its the younger folks working or the women they're very friendly and quick, if its the older white guy he can be quite abrasive and rude. Still, one time when he accidentally gave my wife a lamb sandwich when she ordered a lamb salad, he was very apologetic and let us keep and eat the sandwich too.

I had some falafel with greek fries with garlic seasoning. It was simple but dang delicious, and I'll definitely be back for more when I can. The staff were also very nice.
