Olive Thyme

Food was delicious and service excellent. The current ‘banquet’ style meal has shared starters but regular mains which were difficult to share with a large table.

Loved it, havent had Turkish food in a while and the chefs dishes were exactly what we needed. Thanks heaps.

Six of us went for lunch at Olive Thyme restaurant at Albion on a Saturday. The service was great - friendly & checking to see everything was to our liking. The food was so tasty. We all ordered something different & everyone was very pleased. Good sized servings & value for money. The alcoholic drinks were a bit expensive, but the cocktails were delicious. Overall we were all very happy with our experience and will return again.

The food was Devine and customer service was fantastic. Brilliant

Fantastic highly recommend Olive and Thyme. So good! Will go back.

The only complaint was how noisy it is….a few soft furnishings or rugs or wall hanging would make a difference. Food and service was spot on.

Some of the best food in Brisbane, with service to match

Polite and friendly service. Very attractive decor with lots of space between tables. Food was subtle yet flavourful. Every dish was impressive and good size.

Great service and the food was delicious and a great variety. We would recommend

Gorgeous food and amazing service, Will definitely be back again soon.

Food was beautifully presented and tasted great. Only negative, I thought the dishes were overpriced.

Fabulous food, stunning presentation and gorgeous flavours. The host was extremely friendly and helpful explaining the menu and looking after our dietary requirements. Definitely worth a visit and will be returning.

The meal was great and the staff were very hospitable in their service. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming.

Lovely food and very friendly staff! Dinner was a great experience.

Great place, with a family kind of vibe but a high level food. A little bit pricey maybe but the flavours (spices, sauces), texture (crisp salads, tender meats) were perfect! Would recommend.

We were directed to a table around the corner saying it was quiet spot. I found it be noisy and hard to hear my partner. The Baba ghanoush was nice though the volume to the pita bread was not balanced. Too much dip or not enough pita. The wine per glass was not value for money.

Such a great evening, we'd been before but just as a couple, went with our three boys recently for a birthday celebration, it was brilliant, we'll be back.

The food experience was amazing. I enjoyed every meal presented. Hosts were wonderful. The Chefs Menu is recommended. Wine a little pricey. Overall amazing and will be back.

Brilliant restaurant serving the most delicious Turkish cuisine. We were a party of 7 celebrating a birthday and every person in our group LOVED their meal. Highly recommended!!

Atmosphere was nice but it wasn’t our favourite dining experience. Drinks and food was a bit expensive for the quality of food we thought (min $19 for a standard glass of wine) and food was a bit hit and miss. Lamb was good but octopus was tough. Total was $261 for 3 people. We were there on Father’s Day which was a partially set menu (which we didn’t know when booking) and it was busy so maybe another night may have been better.

Went to fathers day. Enjoyed the ambience of the place. The owner moved us to a different table when she noticed we were feeling quite hot where were originally seated. We appreciated this gesture as it was a scorcher that day. Loved the decor, the food wait times were non-existent which was great Food was lovely. Mum doesn't eat beef the server offered her an alternative haloumi dish without the Turkish sausage on it! She was chuffed! My family are harsh critics but they all thoroughly enjoyed their dishes. Live music was a nice touch, although it was a bit loud. Overall, I can highly recommend this place. It's so wholesome yet has class; totally unpretentious. Thank you for a superb experience!

Great meal with very attentive service!Highly recommend. Very good wine selection

It’s always a great experience when you dine at Olive Thyme, the atmosphere is perfect. The owners and staff are incredibly accommodating. But more importantly, the food AMAZING!

We had an amazing night at Olive & Thyme. Having visited Turkey we found the food very authentic & delicious. Best of all was the service - Sibel & Yalcin were the best hosts. We’ll definitely be back.

Good restaurant food/ parking/ BUT inattentive service despite low table numbers

Great food. Food mix up which was dealt with well.

Wonderful food. Lovely furnishings. Friendly, professional service. Give the Chef’s Menu a go!

We dined early due to theatre booking. We were able to comfortably have the chefs table within an hour. Fantastic food, beautiful restaurant, lovely hosts.

Fantastic food as always!! Love this restaurant! One of my favourites!!

The food was superb and as usual Sibel is a wonderful welcoming host.

Delicious meals, excellent service and comfortable atmosphere. That is why we will return again.

Fantastic gourmet cuisine and very friendly service. Highly recommend for a wonderful evening out.

We had a lovely evening with excellent food served by the friendly owners.

Cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough, from the reservation to the evening it was amazing. Staff were excellent in every way. The food was excellent! One of the best dining experiences we have had!

Sibel was very welcoming, friendly and engaging. Food was delicious - the haloumi, beef, and fig was my absolute favourite. Love the food!

Wonderful food and extra special thank you to our waiter. Nothing was too much trouble. Will be back with our family

Food and service was fabulous. Wonderful to be looked after by people who are happy to have you. Thank you

Thoroughly enjoyed dinner here. Food was delicious and service was great!

We loved our meal at Olive Thyme - as did our lunch guests. The food was really good - babaganoush as good you will find anywhere, stunning octopus, tomatoes with a first rate romanesco sauce. We were also impressed with the service and the pricing.

Food was good..my chicken dish was dry and tasted like something I could have whipped up at home. But overall some interesting dishes. Service was good too but what put me off..sorry was the $$$. $18 for a glass of wine and hardly a 1/4 of a glass at that price was a rip off. Bill for 2 was about $170. Can definitely find great food for a lot less at those prices. Thanks for the opportunity to review.

Service was excellent, food was fabulous although serving portions for the Chefs Banquet were disappointing for the price.

The food was first class, with a lovely genuine atmosphere and very attentive service

Marvellous food great service and attentive staff makes for a great night out . Totally excellent restaurant and can recommend.

Will not go again. Overpriced, no atmosphere what so ever, service average.

Wonderful experience. We had the set menu $68. Many interesting foods are included (choosing your own main was a great idea, suits many dietary issues). The cocktails were okay, the fairy floss on them was very interesting, halva flavour. The bad point of the evening was the first three menu items we asked for were not available, but after that it was fabulous. The service was good and friendly and it was a very relaxed, unrushed night, where old friends could have a good catch up. The starters were delicious. We tried each other‘s main dishes, Lamb was good, octopus was excellent as were the lamb cutlets. Chicken was great. Turkish delight ending, again was interesting great value for money.

Fantastic experience, great food and atmosphere. Would definitely visit again

Great service. Impressive the way the chef was able to cater for some very specific allergies

Food was fabulous and fresh, full of flavour and an experience I could not replicate at home. Ambient noise was a little high. Service was friendly and attentive. Though there was a bit of a wait for the main meal, it was more than made up for in the whole experience.

Brilliant service and food! Would recommend to anyone for a great experience

The food was fantastic and the service also fantastic. Highly recommended.
