I really wanted to enjoy this place and give it 5 stars after reading all the other positive reviews, but I can only go off our experience. First of all, the restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and the decor is well thought out and designed. The staff were all polite, warm and friendly. Once ordered, the food was incredibly quick. Unfortunately, the experience was let down by the waiting times. We waited 15-20 minutes from sitting down just to order drinks. When our table was 'cleared', they left the cold remainders of my partner's fish dish in front of her until after we'd paid the bill (which again came after a very long wait). The staff all seemed ran off their feet, and the restaurant wasn't anywhere near full capacity. It was, at most, half full so I'm not sure how they cope on Friday or Saturday nights. Unsure if they were just understaffed or having a bad night during our visit. The food itself was fine, large portions so you won't be left hungry but my chicken sizzler dish was incredibly oily.

I went here today for Sunday dinner with my mum, dad and sister. It was such a lovely meal. The customer service was excellent and each dish was served hot. There was a good relaxed atmosphere in the restaurant. We sat on the terrace. It was warm, clean and spacious. Despite the terrible road works in Chorlton it was worth finding a parking spot and walking to this restaurant. I highly recommend it!!!!

We went for dinner on a monday to celebrate a special date and booked the table previously as we didn't know if it would be busy. When we arrived we were hreated with a smile and shown to our table next to the window. Menus were given, and there was no rush to order food or drinks. What a blessing! We ordered starters, mains, and then the drinks. Food didn't take long as the place was only half full. Everything was just amazing, such a great food experience. I will say this place rates in my top 5 in Manchester now. Not one bad thing to say, nothing at all. Prices are fair for the amount of food we've been given. It's totally worth it. Would give 7 stars if I could.

Honestly I don't know any other food, how it is cooked. However when it comes to sea food, this place is definitely underrated. Price is super reasonable and taste is beyond expectation. Seafood platter for 2 people are about 40 pounds (20 pounds per person) including rice and salad each. Taste of fish was not too salty or too greasy. It is just worth of visit and if anybody likes seafood, this is the place to visit 100 percent sure!

First time here, and we were very impressed. The service from start to finish was very good. The food was excellent. We will probably visit again.

Tasty food, quick service and good atmosphere. Sat in the covered terrace area which was pleasant. The chicken shish kebab was a little pricey considering the portion size, but the pasta portion on the other hand was plentiful.

If you like Mediterranean food, this place is a must! I was in food heaven with the garlic mushrooms for a starter and the lamb ottoman dish for my main course. The atmosphere is so relaxing, and the service is brilliant. The restaurant is very clean right down to the toilet facilities. A proper treat! 👌

First visit for us and we were both very impressed. We visited on a Saturday afternoon after using Google to search to find a local restaurant and deciding on here based on the pictures. I have shared a few pictures from our visit for you as we ordered what we saw online typical choosing to eat with our eyes! The food was really nice and the pictures really do, do the food justice. Everything was fresh and was everything we'd hoped for. Service was a little quiet in terms of check ins but the interactions we did have were polite and friendly. I would have been happy to share how happy we were with everything, especially the starters that we had chosen, but that opportunity didn't arise. We did hear a table nearby be asked how everything was so I wouldn't take away to much from this. Overall a really nice visit. We couldn't manage dessert, but we will definitely be back. Some other information. We called beforehand to make sure they could accommodate us which they could but you can also book 30 minutes in advance specifying indoors or out via the website, availability permiting. There was only one other family dining when we arrived so it was nice and quiet and this was around 12 on a Saturday. We chose to sit out as it is still enclosed and heated which was nice. It did pickup whilst we were there but it was ok for walk-ins.

Amazing food, ordered meatballs and spring rolls as starter and the mixed grill for me and my girlfriend. Food was absolutely amazing, perfectly seasoned and balanced flavours and big portions. Service was a tiny bit slow but then again it was quite busy for a Wednesday evening so that's not really an issue. Atmosphere was really nice, cozy but stylish and contemporary at the same time. Would definitely go for another visit.

Great food, great service and lovely staff. Food is freshly made and served lovely and hot. Can't wait to go back.

Wow! where do i start absolutely amazing service from the start was spot on. Wine was perfect. Starters explained by the waiter as our first time couldn’t ask for better service. Main course out of this world absolutely perfect. will definitely return, thank you!

Quality food excellent service and a brilliant atmosphere

The service was very good and food was nice, but I wasn't too keen on the main course chicken avocado. It was described a little different to what came out. The starter sucuk and hummus was lovely and my peppermint tea was actually really nice and my teapot was beautiful. I will definitely go back but I wouldn't get this main again. There is street parking but it can be difficult to get a space.

Overall a really good experience. The ambiance , the service, the food everything was superb. I’ll visit again for sure. A highly recommended place to have good food and good time .

In the last 10 weeks this restaurant and the very friendly, helpful and lovely people have become like family to me! The food is delicious and I can only recommend it! I haven't tried pasta but the rest of the menu is really very good! Thank you for this lovely experience! I will miss you guys! 😘❤️‍🔥

Delicious and very tasty food. A lot of variety to choose from. Would definitely recommend olive and thyme for a nice meal out!

Pleasantly surprised by our last minute decision to dine in here. The food was very good , we enjoyed the mixed grill for 2, and the atmosphere was quite refreshing. A glimpse of satisfaction in an otherwise deflating dine-in industry in the last few years.

This place is great! The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. We loved Olive and Thyme and my boys really enjoyed food there however they are so picky Now they are asking me to go there every weekend 😄 Furnished with taste and staff are also great and always efficient, happy and polite! Food is very fresh and delicious!!! It is definitely family place to go!!! You can say they run family business as their warm energy is passing through the air ♥️☺️ Recommending! Recommending! Recommending!!!

The food was pretty good and the servers were helpful. However, my friends and I all felt like we were unwanted at the restaurant - nothing was said directly but was rather implied by looks and attitudes. I am not sure what that was all about but its undesirable in a night out.

Great place to eat. I had the seafood mix which and house salad. Seafood mix was around £20 and house salad £4. As you can see you get a lot of food for the money and what makes it better is that it’s great tasting food. Would definitely eat here again!

Fresh tasty food. Friendly helpful service. Ambient and relaxed atmosphere. Amazing mocktails. 👏
