Olive Garden in Central Bedfordshire

Me and my daughter had such a lovely time the service was quick and the food was delicious and warm they have big portion sizes and we will be going back the soon would definitely recommend them to friends and family

I took my family to this restaurant as I heard they serve amazing food. I was over the moon with my choice!! I had the Aubergine Boat. Layers of Aubergine and cheese in a beautifully flavored tomato sauce. This was served with rice. My husband had the Lamb. He said it fell off the bone. Perfectly cooked and spiced beautifully. The staff in Olive Garden are warm and personable. The portion sizes were perfect and great value. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone.

This is my favourite local restaurant. The food is always spot on. The service is always friendly. I always have a lamb dish. Beautiful

Good food friendly staff order food directly for takeaway

Always looks closed and unappealing. Thought we'd give it a go and tried to order but was told they were far too busy for our custom and advised we should pre-order in future. Attempted to pre-order the following week and was once again told they were far too busy for our custom despite following their advice. So haven't actually sampled the food or atmosphere so can't comment on that but the service is a bit of a shambles so don't intend to. No wonder it always looks so empty and closed.

Had a lovely mother's day meal great service and atmosphere meal was very nice

Good food quantity and service... By prabu

The food was delicious, as a vegetarian i enjoyed it immensely,the customer service was exceptional, the person dealing with my request went out of their way to call me back with alternative suggestions after what I was going to order was unavailable, would highly recommend this restaurant and would give10 stars if possible. Will definitely be ordering again :) 👍👍👍

Made an online order first time trying this restaurant. When calling to see where my order was I was shouted at and had tge phone put down on me. When the food finally arrived it was cold and of poor quality. My son found a hair in his salad. In all honesty I chucked ot in the bin. I will never order from there again!!

We had a meal at the Olive Garden on Valentine's night and it was superb, great service and really good value for money. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. The food tasted good as well.

This has to be one of the worst experiences I have ever had in a restaurant. It was so cold we all had to sit with our coats on all night. I know it was -11 outside but when the front door was opened it was actually warmer. We were a large party and took up the whole restaurant. There was no vodka, no Prosecco and one of our party had to go next door to buy her own tonic water. Shocking!!!! The food is supposed to be Greek. As someone who has spent a lot of time in Greece and eaten a lot of food there, the food was disgusting and certainly bore no resemblance to any Greek food I have ever eaten. It is such a shame as I have visited this restaurant before and had a pleasant evening.

Table of 10. Not 100% on the food. Some dishes a bit dry I'm told. Nothing was actually sent back... Desserts were very nice. Decor is lacking to make more cosy atmosphere. Have to say the service was excellent. No other customers all night, suprising as it was a Friday. Owner needs to step up a bit. We were a bit disappointed.

We had a great meal here. The food and service was excellent and great value for money. Happy to recommend and will definitely return.

Still recommended. Friday night and very quiet (we were the only diners). But friendly staff, good pricing, and great food. Drop in and make the place buzz.

Myself and 3 friends tried this restaurant after hearing some good reviews. It’s a very basic decor and interior, nothing fancy but what they lack in ambience, they certainly make up for in the quality of the food and the service. The owner could not have been more attentive and constantly checked we were satisfied with everything. The prices are very reasonable too, excellent value for money! Me and my friends will be going back for sure!

Ordered online - salmon was completely burnt. Shame that for the sake of 2-3 quid, they've lost a customer (or few)...

Had lots of starters to taste everything service excellent food lovely

We have become regulars of Olive Garden for several very good reason’s! Most of all its incredible food and the portion sizes. Please keep doing what you do ❤️

I tried this restaurant with my husband on a Saturday, we walked in after booking a table. The restaurant was empty apart from 1 table which we thought was strange being a Saturday night. We asked for a Kleftiko which we both really wanted. To be told we only have what's on the menu! Strange a Greek restaurant without Kleftiko. We made our excuses and left. Don't know what the food was like because we didn't stay. There was no atmosphere. We won't be returning unless the restaurant changes the menu and livens up this place.

Really lovely food, we shared humous and feta and Turkish sausage to start then mixed kebab and chicken in creamy sauce followed by tiramisu and coffees. It was all very nice with great friendly service

My family and I went here and it was the most relaxing restaurant I've ever been to in my life! The waiters and chefs were all amazing, we had bread galore! The chef gave one of the members in our party my potatoes and gave me chips instead, but was SO kind about it and went back to the kitchen and brought out a giant plate of potatoes! Truly an amazing Greek restaurant. We went on Sunday and for one started and a main it was only £12.99!!! AMAZING

Food was great. Staff were on the ball and very reasonable prices. Will definitely go there again

Fantastic, we have ordered take away a few times from the restaurant and they have always been first class, staff and owners are brilliant. Would always recommend.

I trying a lot restaurants in Dunstable but this one I highly recommend. Very tasty and worth money. I getting hot food and impressive portions. For 100% I will order again.

Great food.loved the pasta and pizza and also the starters.A little unorganised but still very good

From the point of ordering to the point of delivery, everything ran smoothly. Bilal was very kind and accommodating and even let us add to the order after we had put it through. The food was enjoyed by all 11 staff and were very complementary and most rated 9 out of 10. Portion sizes were plentiful and many couldn't finish them all. We would order from here again and highly recommend to friends and family.

Not very good not many choices for vegetarians

Superb food was great and service too

Ordering always from JustEat. Food arrived before time and was hot. Delicious and fresh dishes. Moussaka - thanks to this dish, I could feel like I was in Crete again =). The best mediterranean restaurant in Dunstable! Definitelly will order again, highly recommend!

Our friends brought us to this restaurant. The food was amazing and fresh, I really liked the hummus. The staff were attentive and polite. We stayed until the place closed and had a fantastic time. I would totally recommend this place to anyone. You can buy alcoholic beverages at this restaurant.

Just had a delivery and was lovely. I googled best Mediterranean in dunstable and this place came up. Arrived on time and was hot. It really was lovely and tasted so fresh too. Be warned though, the hot Mayo is hot lol. Will definitely order again. Well done Olive Garden.

Ordering always from Just eat, the food is absolutely delicious. Never failing.

Food was lovely and fresh, authentic and very tasty! Thumbs up!!

Tried ordering take away from here last weekend. Phoned about 8 times.no answer. Even though said open. Finally got through..but no available slots so said to phone back so day morning (last week still). Phomed sunday. Still no answer. Phoned about 5 times. Managed to get through during the week to order take away for sunday (fathers day today).. all ordered ok. Food arrived on time. Which was fine. They messaged to say was on way etc. But I can say the food was quite disappointing. Nothing special about it. Quite bland.very standard. We had quite few different dishes but in the mixed platter it says chicken bites. Wasnt expecting chicken nuggets that my 7ear old eats that tasted like McDonalds ones. I would maybe try something different again but not in a rush. So yes bit disappointed. But everyone has different opinions and taste buds.

Having read the glowing reviews for Olive Garden and takeaway menu we thought to give it a try. Phoned at 2:30 for a pickup before 6. - Told no collection slots until 6:30 and cannot have the special, although advertised as being available until 6. Shame, we were looking to support small local recommended restaurants. Glad to see a business doing so well it can turn business away. Other takeaway option chosen.

Wow just ordered the Olive Garden Special and there is enough food here for two days. Thank you for a wonderful meal. Food tastes amazing. Thank you

Have eaten in here a few times over the years and the food has always been good and reasonably priced. Saw they were doing takeaways during lockdown, we had one a couple of weeks ago it did not disappoint. It was lovely as it always we had the set meal £22 great value for money good food, good portions and delivered on time and hot. You need to order a week in advance at weekends bit worth it .

Our neighbours recommended Olive Garden to us having previously used them last weekend. We weren’t disappointed the food was really nice we had the special menu. We ordered by email on the Thursday a very pleasant helpful lady rung me up on the Friday arranged time of delivery. This all ran smoothly and evening was a success. We will certainly being using Olive Garden again. Thank you Very good Value for money

Despite the fact we live in the town we have never tried this restaurant. We decided to order from here this evening whilst the nation is in lockdown. What can I say! Fantastic food, unbelievable service and arrived right on time. Unfortunately one of the dishes we had ordered was missed, but a quick phone call and 5 minutes later that dish had arrived. Fantastic service and will definitely be ordering from here numerous times in the future. Thank you!

We decided to have a night out ... at home. Olive Garden is one of our favourites so we organised a delivery. Easy to order from their takeaway menu with lots of great options. They rang 5 mins before arriving with food and were clearly taking Social distancing and preotection seriously but were of course friendly on the doorstep! We missed the lovely atmosphere and service of the restaurant but the food was beautifully presented so we could enjoy it straight away. We even have some leftovers for lunch today! Nice treat for this self isolation time. Thank you.

Always a warm welcome, lovely and clean. The food is amazing, tastes so fresh and very resonably priced.

Opening hours say that they are open until 15:00 today but we just turned up and they are closed. No sign in the door. They should update their hours UPDATE: Reply received from owner. Will try to visit again soon

First time visiting this restaurant, Saturday 11th January, because we wanted more lamb options and were not disappointed with what their menu offers. The decor is basic but the food was superb. Waiting to order, we were given a sherry aperitif with a glass of water, which the waiter (owner?) continually topped up. The menu has a great variety, and as it's printed on plain paper, suggests it's regularly updated. We began with a choice of 4 starters between the two of us for £9.95. Whilst they appeared small on the sharing plate, they were actually quite filling. The choice of wine is quite limited but this is the first restaurant I've been to in Dunstable that provides proper large red wine glasses. We felt quite spoilt for choice with the main menu, all dishes reasonably priced and so many with lamb. My friend appeared to have been served the equivalent of a lamb mixed grill. We were too full to attempt dessert but the traditional baklava packed and topped with chopped pistachio together with a thick clotted ice cream and our black coffees, was perfect. £62 between two including a bottle of Merlot wine was a good deal to us. We then saw their business cards offer 20% for bookings made at least two weeks in advance. We're planning to go back soon.

14 of us visited, I would recommend this restaurant, manager couldn't have been more helpful as one of party requested gluten free, asking the party member to contact him personally. Recommend the kleftico, but beef stifado looked lovely. deffo returning

Lovely restaurant, staff very helpful and polite, food very good and enjoyable we will be returning

Very attentive staff large portions and sherry

We had our Christmas do here. The food was lovely and the welcome was wonderful.

Lovely evening . Great choice of good . Staff were brilliant. Oscar the owner looked after us so well.

a real find in Dunstable and a nice change from the the other restaurants in the area ,we started with a selection of got and cold meze all served with bread and then we tried the kleftico (baked lamb knuckle) which was soO good,we will be returning thats for sure !!

Monday night for mums birthday, a very quiet night but couldn’t have felt more welcome. Oskar is an amazing host, service impeccable and food gorgeous. Portions are huge and typically generous for the Mediterranean style. We will return, thank you for looking after us

This is a hidden gem of a Greek restaurant. Great service and good food. Prices are affordable and a good choice on the menu. All 10 of us said we would go back again! See you soon 😁

I have been here several times. The food has always been good and it has a nice atmosphere, helped a lot by the friendly welcome of the owners..

Decent portions, tasty good food. Coped well with a party of 20

Menu is varied and food is excellent value for money and very tasty. Host excellent, very friendly and helpful.

Good food, friendly service, reasonable price

We had a very pleasant evening at olive garden on a Friday evening. The food was lovely and drinks quite cheap. The atmosphere was excellent and so was the service. We will definitely be back. Although I would like to see a bit more choice on the menu.

Really gone down hill become a little cookie cutter cusine

Lovley food, fantastic service.

Good quality different food, service with a smile. Good value for money, nice inside. We will be back.

Great food at a great price. Also, super service. Highly recommended.

Great value - two light lunches for £10, including a soft drink. Super tasty food. Exceptional service. Loved the bonuses. This really exceeded expectations (and we only came because another restaurant was shut for a holiday). We'll be back!

Very well situated establiment, great starters, Romantic setting and excellent service with reasonable prices. The owner was very nice also

Very nice food, very hospitable service.

Very friendly stuff, excellent food

The food was delicious, homey and the staff was really friendly! We will come back defined

5 of us visited in May. Friendly staff who are more than happy to accommodate allergies and provided excellent service. We ordered starters and mains, big portion sizes. Throughly recommend!

Food was amazing, and the waiter was the nicest person ever. We was suprised that the place was empty and we think that this is because of decor which is a bit outdated, also the blinds makes the inside dark which is not welcoming and looks a bit like shop from the outside. I would recommend it as food was really good and atmosphere was really nice. It is worth to go there.

Bardzo dobre jedzenie za dostepna cene. Mila obsluga. Polecam.

Great service and the food was delicious!

Appalling food, how do they get away with it. Food is all pre-frozen and still frozen when arrived at the table which got sent back. That's not all that was frozen, had to put coat back on was so cold in there. Shame, as the wait staff are lovely. Won't be going back.

Lovely, friendly restaurant. Beautifully, delicious food

Very friendly traditional family Greek restaurant. Good value 2 course set menu Mon-Sat £15.50 p/p. Mezze starter is a great introduction to Greek starters. Succulent chicken Souvlaki can be recommend.

Went back to the restaurant after nearly a 3 year break and unfortunately not much had changed from our last visit. The decor still looks tired and jaded and unless i am very much mistaken still appears to have pictures of Italian landmarks on the walls from the previous restaurant's occupancy. The service was fine but as their were only 6 of us in the place this was to be expected. The food though was very average and the portion size on the small size. The cheapest thing on the plate were Saute Potatoes so why scrimp on them? A child's size portion would be my best observation. The red wine we had was fine and not ridiculously expensive. Their are two similar restaurants in Dunstable now and both of them do this sort of food, but do it a lot better. Definitely room for improvement....

The food was cold and expensive to eat.

We’d been looking forward to taking our friends here last Saturday night. There were two other tables occupied at 7.30pm, and it didn’t get any busier all night. A shame for a Saturday night. But why we ask? Well it might be that their menu seems to have changed substantially since our last visit. Apart from being presented on a single piece of A4 paper, it was very limited. Starters were just the one option of various hot mixed dishes, which were actually very palatable, but it would be nice to have been given some choices. The mains let it down badly. The pork was definitely not cooked fresh. The Moussaka was awful, hardly any meat at all and extremely dry. My kleftiko was fine. But the wine.... well there was only the one choice; house wine, red, white or rose. We chose red which came to the table in an opened bottle. Not done in a decent restaurant. It was just drinkable, and we did have some more as it was the only option. However, it’s clear that the empty bottles were being refilled from a barrel behind the bar. No way was that bottle worth anything like the £14 they charged. I’m happy with decanted wine from a barrel, but at least advertise it and serve it as a carafe, and not as a bottled Merlot. That is just deceitful. Two stars for the service, but in terms of atmosphere, honesty, food and drink, I can’t recommend it any longer, and sadly we won’t be returning. I wonder if the Olive Garden will soon be a victim of its own making.

Great food, quaint atmosphere, incredibly friendly staff.

This was our third Christmas day meal in here. At just over £40 this year for 5 courses it yet again was a bargain. You choose from a limited meditteranean menu which has plenty of selection for all tastes. I thoroughly recommend this restaurant. Thanks for opening on Christmas day yet again Oscar!

Very limited menu. Had to wait a while for drinks and menu as limited menus available. Food ok but didn't have starter and steak too well done. Kept coat on as too cold to take off. Cafe like atmosphere. Waitress couldn't answer any questions we asked. Would not go back!

We turned up for an early meal and were treated to a simple menu of delicious dishes ... amd tempted by them all ended up having 3 courses each rather than the intended snack!

My family and I went to the Olive Garden for dinner. We ordered mezes and mains to share. The food came very quickly and to a very high standard. We felt very welcomed and comfortable the whole time we were there. Thank Arian and billable for an amazing night.

Lunch offer is fantastic. Recommend the platter.

Beautiful food, cannot fault in any way everything is fresh are you can just tasty it and at the moment They have got a really good still on for lunchtime the main meal and a drink for £5.50 absolutely bargain.😀😀

Lovely food and great service, it was a real treat to pop in for lunch today

Not long back from a Greek holiday so I hunted the nearest Greek/Mediterranean restaurant, and didn’t realise I had one right on my doorstep. The food was delicious & the service was 10/10. I shall definitely be returning

Looks can be deceiving. What a wonderful restaurant. Great food, great service. We will be back

Great lil gem of a place had lovely meal food great service good friendly place small an bit loud but that didn't bother us we loved it definitely going again

Gorgeous food, excellent prices

Authentic and delicious Greek food and service was so good ! Was made to feel so welcome. Can’t wait to return again soon 😁

Fantastic food and service was top notch ! Great atmosphere, will be returning soon 😃!

We had the meze platter for 3 people and it would have been more than enough for 4 people. Lovely food and staff were very accomodating. Family friendly too!

Great food, very generously served. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful.

Great service, good food, very accommodating: nice place for a night out with friends.

We thought we’d go local and try this place out as seen a couple of reviews. Food was lovely and service was great. The resteraunt was a bit tired and dated but I can see how hard it must be to survive on a busy road with little custom in the week. All in all, nice food and lovely people

Never had Greek food before, Had a great meal and a lovely desert! Very friendly and owner couldn't do enough. Would definitely come back. Very reasonable prices too.

Lovely little restaurant with AMAZING FOOD AND WONDERFUL STAFF. Went with a group of 6-7 my girlfriends for a last minute birthday meal, the food was new to some of us and tasted amazing, we got to try new things and new flavours. The food was presented wonderfully, staff was friendly and helpful. The chef came out to meet us and check if we enjoyed our meals which we ALL DID. The menu was able to cater to friends with dietary intolerances without them feeling left out for choice of food. There was parking near by and good choice of drinks. The only issue we had was a hiccup with understanding the menu but we are aware for next time and the chef and owner were very understanding to us all. So they still deserve 5 stars WE WILL DEFINITELY BE GOING BACK TO OLIVE GARDEN DUNSTABLE.

Food was delicious! Very tasty and well presented. Professional and friendly service. Definitely we will come back soon

Siamo appena stati a mangiare in questo ristorante e devo dire che siamo stati benissimo.Il proprietario Oscar è stato gentilissimo e disponibile.Cibo ottimo ed abbondantissimo(abbiamo preso il piatto misto e la pasta per nostra figlia).Ciliegina sulla torta,ci hanno fatto pagare metà il piatto di pasta di nostra figlia ed offerto il gelato, sempre per lei...Alle fine il proprietario ci ha intrattenuto parlando delle sue bimbe che hanno più o meno l’età della nostra.Si sta come a casa,chi lavora bene merita recensioni eccellenti.

Great food great service thank you

Amazing food,great customer service and families atmosphere in this Greek restaurant:) Definitely I’m come back there

We booked a table for 4 adults one 2 year old and a 1 year old at 5.30pm hoping that the food would be served quickly and the children would behave! We weren't disappointed.The food was served with quickly with just the right amount of wait time between courses. We all ordered something different (I can't remember all the dishes we ordered) but the mezze sharing platter was perfect for the little ones with plenty of pitta, and dips to keep them amused we also got them bruschetta which was delicious and also a big hit with them. All our main meals not only looked really appetising but tasted great too. Desserts were lovely too. The wine list is limited, house red, rose and white only, however we tried the red (merlot) and white (sauvignon blanc) and they were really nice. There was a choice of 3 desserts, profiteroles, baked cheesecake and vanilla ice cream. We had the cheesecake which was really nice and the children had ice cream. It was a great meal, excellent service, the food was delicious, and we will definitely go again.
