Olive Cafe - San Diego

When I live in San Diego for 10 years, I call this place a main goal. It has an east coast deli Vibe meets large parking, hiking and sunshine year round. The scene can be a bit of college students on a date, but this is only when you roll out of bed mate enough on day for brunch or lunch to them. The sandwiches and ulcers are great and I also appreciate the gluten-free bread options. Vegan: gf inclusive and affordable tasty to top it!

My friends and I were looking for a breakfast restaurant while visiting from out of town. We picked Olive based on the reviews online. They did NOT disappoint! I ordered a breakfast burrito and a flavored lemonade. They were both incredible! Can't wait to go back to CA so we can go here again!

Awesome food, friendly staff, nice place to be. South Swell special rocked it out and the open at 7am! Good stuff.

Breakfast was fine. I needed a to go box and the server ignored all three of my attempts to get her attention. She really wasn't that busy. Age discrimination? I also asked for an extra butter and that seemed to annoy her. I won't be back but will continue to go to your bakery for sticky buns and cookies and mochas because they are, literally, the best on planet Earth.

I order from this place multiple times a month and their food is great and service tends to be also but this most recent visit it was not. Ordered to go, food wasn't ready by the time website stated, had to ask the person out front multiple questions to find out how much longer so I wasn't taking space on patio. Got the text after she said it wasn't ready. I didn't get any utensils inside the bag, no napkins. Wasn't asked if I wanted any on the side or condiments. I ordered soup..... Kind of need a spoon for that, ordered The Bowl, which is the size of a cup but I guess the only difference is a few ounces so they really are both cups of soup. Doesn't state that on the site. Parmesan cheese on soup was also sad and pointless. I over tipped and wish I hadn't since I didn't see the value this time around.
