We hadn’t visited the Black Olive in several years, mostly because we were avoiding downtown Bmore because of the squeegee issues around the city. We’re happy that this appears to be a thing of the past. We enjoyed a wonderful meal last night. We arrived and were seated in the back room. There are 4 or 5 tables in this room. We ordered raw oysters, stuffed calamari, and octopus salad for appetizers. We had a grilled whole snapper and while black sea bass for entrees. We had a bottle of Assyrtiko wine from Santorini. For dessert, we shared baklava ice cream. Everything was well prepared and delicious. The stuffed calamari was a standout. We look forward to returning again soon.

I had the black cod and it was absolutely amazing 👍 buttery and flavorful, excellent! My daughter had the steak and fries and enjoyed them but she said they were very salty. The oysters we had were small but fresh and delicious. That said, I didn't like being told to go online to see the menu. Can't give each of us a printed menu?
