Olive Tree Turkish Mediterranean Restaurant & Bar in Milton Keynes

Lovely meal, quick service thank you 😊

Lovely night with the girls great food

Super tasty authentic Turkish food. Excellent service and prices. Best in Milton Keynes!

What more can I say? Absolutely amazing service 💯%. The food is sublime and the staffs are very welcoming and professional. Will definitely be coming back! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Staff were very attentive, arrived for a 60th birthday and all the staff made such a fuss and made my whole family feel welcome and valued. To top it off, the food was amazing! Will be returning!

Visited with kids and friends, atmosphere was amazing staff super friendly and kids loved the food!

The food was nice and well prepared, the servers were all attentive and did great jobs serving us and the food came out really promptly. The restaurant was really busy so they did a great job to keep up. The only annoying aspect was the happy birthday music that blared out 4-5 times whilst we were there and made it difficult to have a conversation but only a slight thing for an otherwise great meal.

Always lovely food and friendly staff.

We had a lovely dinner Sunday evening and everything was amazing,fast service and food on top as always,we had Mixed Grilled Platter and our favourite dessert Kunefe

Food and atmosphere good. Waiter very rude when we did not tip.

Nice restaurant from the inside, with ample parking outside. This is a bit of a belated review, so I don't remmeber what my dish was called - it was a traditional dish. However, I do recall enjoying the meal. Would visit another time to try the charcoal grill menu.

The food at this place is amazing! All the ingredients are fresh and very tasty. Also, the people who are working there are warm and friendly!!

A very welcoming (complimentary bread and dip) pleasant Turkish restaurant where we had late lunch before heading to the Ice rink and it was busy and enjoyable. The service is basic but works (missing cutlery, pour your own drink the. need to ask for second round of drinks). My main course (Adana from the Charcoal Grill) portion size was small (2 small kofte) to average making the value for money mid range.

Great place to be, my second time. Seems to be my go-to place when at MK. If you love Turkish meal, you're better off visiting this place.

Great food good service by Eram tonight

Very nice restaurant, the service is very nice, fast and competent. It was great. We felt very well looked after. The food was wonderful. The wine is a poem. Even the baklava was homemade, fresh and incredibly tasty! Conclusion... Always very happy

Lovely meal staff very friendly

Went here with family for my brother's birthday and I absolutely loved the food! I would definitely recommend it to someone that wants to try Turkish food. Nice service too.

We recently traveled from London to Milton Keynes and had the pleasure of dining at The Olive Tree. The food and drinks were absolutely amazing, full of flavour and beautifully presented. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall fantastic experience. We’ll definitely be returning to The Olive Tree next time we’re in Milton Keynes. Highly recommend!

Great food, great portions and very friendly staff.

This used to be one of my fav restaurants Food is still very good.. even if I noticed a bit of a change.. Service not great like few months ago...

Fabulous food 😋 and great value 👌

I'm really disappointed with my recent experience at Olive Tree, especially since it used to be one of my favorite restaurants. Has there been a change in the chefs? The food was super greasy, the rice was soaked in oil, and the meat was fatty and overly salty! Something went wrong, and I'm really disappointed because this used to be the best Turkish restaurant for me. Please review the chefs!

The food was rally nice, the staff was very helpful.

Absolutely delicious food in a comfortable atmosphere with friendly staff. Highly recommend!

The food is fantastic, and service is always attentive. Great ambience with great character

Best Turkish food in MiltonKeynes by far, cannot fault anything, from the friendly staff to the quick service, everything is always top notch 👌 that's why I keep going back time and time again.

It was a really good experience. Everything we ordered was tasty and on point. Loved the Falafel and the Turkish soda. The garlic bread with the hummus was soft and garlicky which I devoured.

Great restaurant and lovely atmosphere

Love the food every time we eat there. Exceptional char-grilled lamb and chicken. Lovely staff, too!

On a day out we decided to have dinner here and it was lovely food, lovely staff and very spacious place. Will be back next week. Many thanks.

Came here for the first time recently for a small birthday lunch, nothing crazy just the two of us. We opted for the lunch menu which in the week is 2 courses for £15, brilliant value for the portion sizes. We left very well fed! Staff are really friendly and you couldn’t fault the food at all. Lovely presentation and all the plates left the table clean as a whistle. The Mrs called ahead of time and the staff surprised me with a little birthday dessert and limoncello which was free of charge! Coffees were great as well, very tasty. Will definitely be back, couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Swift service, excellent food with a big variety on the menu, friendly staff.

My 3rd visit not sure I enjoyed the main meal as I have previously, however the Mushroom starter was stunning I will go again and maybe try a different meal

As a first time customer at Olive tree, the experience was higher than the standard restaurant experience. All staff were attentive to customers, with efficient service. Food was served within 10 minutes of ordering. The food was very well done, and was of good quality. I would like to specifically shout out Derya for looking after us throughout our time there, with compassion and care. Will be returning in the near future 100%.

Came to olive tree in Milton Keynes 16 of us. The food was overall good and the service was okay the parking is a bit of a weird one after certain times it’s okay. Food is a bit pricey but can’t really fault the quality. Overall mixed review on the place

Nice turkish food , good location, good service

We dropped in to the Olive Tree for a quick lunch when heading into MK to do a spot of shopping. The restaurant was quiet at the time we arrived and we were warmly welcomed and given a nice table by the window. Staff were friendly and attentive throughout, but not overbearing. We both had a mixed grill (chicken and lamb shish and Adana) which came with dressed salad, rice and some bread and dips. Every part of the dish was delicious! Beautifully marinated, grilled and assembled. A lovely treat and highly recommended!

Fast service, lovely food, if you go at lunch time don't park right outside as it is Premium parking. Standard parking is only a few feet further!

We went to this restaurant a few times before. This time we invited our friends to celebrate a birthday. We had a booking at 6.30 pm and it was ok. Time passed and the restaurant became bustling, losing the serving staff's attention as they were too busy. We didn't want to spoil our evening but they should consider better system of taking the orders and bringing the food out.

This place is so good, food is amazing and the service is wonderful

The food brought this up to a 2 star review rather than a 1. We came and ate at the olive tree having heard good things and seeing good reviews. The food was lovely and the fresh bread you get welcomed with was beautiful. However, our experience was really ruined by the lack of attention from any staff member in the waiting on and FOH team. We waited half an hour before chasing our starters, we got some more free bread as an apology and waited another 10 minutes to hear anything about our food. We had to ask 2 different staff members about getting more drinks. These were dropped off and the empty dirty glasses left on the table. The quickest service we got was when we asked for the bill, they brought this over in seconds with a card machine at the same time. The staff really needed to work on their attentiveness to customers in my opinion

Beautiful venue. Food was amazing, we had a share platter for the two of us and it was fantastic, great cocktails too!

Great food and equally as good service. We had a starter and a main, food came out quickly from the open kitchen. I'd recommend a meal here and I'll come back soon.

Delicious food, and lush cocktails. Loved the atmosphere with the live singer/music. Would return and recommend 😊

I was brought here for lunch when I was training at Beanco academy for my lunch . The staff are all lovely and friendly . The food was amazing lovely and fresh . If I ever come back to Milton Keynes I will be coming back again

One of the best restaurants in Milton Keynes in terms of quality/price ratio. Quite varied menu, very fast service and very attentive staff. I recommend it 100%.

Great Turkish Restaurant and lovely Mediterranean dishes. Reasonable prices and variety of options. Was for an 18th birthday outing and the atmosphere and help from staff was great.

What's not to praise. The vibe, the food and the service were great! SO got prawns which came as a great size portion. I had the chicken which was a smaller portion than I would have liked. So make sure to double check how big the portion is when you order.

I had the worst experience at Olive Tree, which used to be my go-to restaurant. The hostess at the front was extremely rude. We politely requested to be seated at a different table, as we had just seen another couple move to the same area. She did put a face on when they moved to another table. However, the way she refused our request was unnecessarily curt. When we decided to leave due to her attitude, she simply responded with, 'Okay, bye,' which I found very unprofessional.

The food was great quality and of good portions .The service was amazing they were really quick and friendly. It is kid friendly and has vegan and vegetarian options as well.

I went on Wednesday evening the atmosphere was a bit weird but the food was really nice, they offer a bread with sauce for a start on house and I loved it!!!!!Really quick service and friendly staff for a busy evening!!!!!

Food was very tasty, but every dish came with this same generic salad. The portions were stingy for the price. The staff were very confused. And they have no idea how to handle the bill for large groups.what I assume was the manager was pretty pissy with us which pretty much ate away and any good feelings we had about the place. If they literally upgraded their card reader, the service could easily be 4 stars.

Really great service, food and value. Two courses from lunch menu with my wife and daughter and we all loved it. Great place.

Nice location a great place to dine in and enjoy traditional Turkish food with a variation of cocktails

We chose this venue for a 50th birthday meal. The food was amazing, the staff were very friendly and went above and beyond with the birthday cake and special birthday music. Would definitely recommend and go there again.

This was our first time visiting a Mediterranean restaurant & it was a pleasant experience. The staff was incredibly helpful, especially Venky, who provided outstanding service & thoughtful suggestions. I ordered a Mixed hot Mezze which comes with a refreshing salad, falafel , Sucuk & Halloumi. It tasted great but it was very salty, could be due to the cheese. Overall, they had diverse menu & I recommend for it's dining experience.

The service was amazing, very friendly people

Milton Keynes a romantic station where every around is beautiful and well crafted. When we talk about food, expectations are accordingly high. Olive tree if reasonae good with good atmosphere. However the feel you find inside is average. Personal specific focus is lacking and then you feel unpapmpered. Food is OK but not the best. Improvements are needed though is yet a fine choice.

Place looked great and clean, staff was very polite, food was really good and portions big, price affordable. Starter wasn’t great but overall good experience.

Fantastic food and great quantity, extra brownie points for a complimentary item given as a starter, the Baklava was not that great

We visited this restaurant on Monday Evening and where pleasantly surprised by the food quality and the excellent service. The range of Turkish food was white and fresh. The waitress Gulcan served as, she gave some advice and was very nice and welcoming. Thank you very much and highly recommend it this restaurant. Irena

Very attentive and friendly. Superb service. Prices are a bit high but the plate is big and full and the food has lots of flavour. Great for a treat.

Nice food, amd good environment.

It was a wonderful experience. We went to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Food and overall experience was awesome. Their staff member Gulcan was cheerful with our little kids and professional. We had a lovely experience will visit soon.

We went for a last minute date night, had no reservations, but when we called the restaurant, we were greeted politely and asked to come whenever and they will be able to accommodate us. Upon arrival, the restaurant had a great ambiance, we were given a nice booth! we had the mixed hot mezze and mixed grill to share! both were great choices! the waitress was very attentive and at the end they gave us plenty of time, for enjoy dessert without rushing us out! thank you for a great night

The food and cocktails were unreal & the service from Derya & Ibu was the best:) Can't wait to return!

Nice restaurant, comfortable seating. Outstanding customer service, the staff were extremely helpful and very friendly accommodating all needs. The food was lovely, a large selection which caters for all tastes. A nice selection of drinks.

We can't wait to come back. Very good service, good food too

I like this restaurant. All the staff are very friendly and attentive, the food is delicious and, you can have a good time with family or friends.

This place never stops to amaze me with their service. We have been there many times earlier but every time we go, it's the better experience...this time we went with 5-6 kids as my friend organized her son's birthday there and it was a very good experience....good food, good ambience...and specially good staff..they were very friendly..😊 was really impressed with the service..specially 1 staff that I can never forget - Dereya.. she was so friendly with the kids and managed everything really well..would definitely recommend this place 👍

Very busy in here which is a good sign. However it was very noisy so not very relaxing. The food was nice but our food was not as hot as our should have been. Food Waitress was helpful and attentive drinks waitress didn't know what wine was what and struggled with English

We recently had a dinner for my son’s 3rd birthday and I have to say it was phenomenal. The staff especially Deraya was so warm welcoming and was super good with the kids. The food was amazing and it was a pre order she made sure we were getting everything in time and was really patient in regards of any new customisations☺️

Food and Staff are always excellent. If you go as a group of 4, get a platter and some starters.... it'll be more than enough.

Healthy and delicious. Fair priced and a very good service !

Outstanding food & service! Best ever so far! Thank you!

The food is always amazing here. Especially with the great food recommendations of the staff. Maria, our waitress, helped us with all our enquiries. 💯 🤩👌

It is at times like this that I wish I had more stomachs! The food was absolutely gorgeous, and the staff were lovely, helpful, and attentive. We will be back! Thank you so much!

One of the best places in The UK to have a decent feast

The service was delightful and the waiters sang me happy birthday with a complimentary brownie. As much as it embarrassed me it was very generous! Thank you Maria for being so attentive x

Extraordinary food, great service, friendly team, suprise extras

Came here for my Dad’s 50th Birthday Party. We had a private section for 50 People. We ordered a multiple selection of platters. Food was amazing. Hospitality was outstanding. We were very looked after. Would highly recommend 6/5 stars!

WOW what a great place, what agreat place. X

Always good food and better service. On a week day they have an affordable lunch menu that they serve quickly so you can carry with your working day. The range of Turkish food is wide and tasty. Amazing bread and sauces.

Went to Olive Tree yesterday 19/6 for the first time and all we can say is WOW. It was 5 of us for my birthday dinner and having been to similar restaurants before we was expecting the same sort of quality, but Olive Tree is by far the best Turkish Mediterranean in Milton Keynes! The food was cooked and seasoned to perfection and the portion size is massive. We all left feeling very stuffed and satisfied. We also was very impressed with the service we received, the interaction with our kids and constantly making sure we had everything we wanted. Best service we have had in a very long time from anywhere. Unfortunately we didn't get our servers name but he is a credit to your restaurant and deserves high praise. We was booked in for 18:30 on 19/06 and the receipt says table 50 so hopefully that can narrow down our server so you can pass on our appreciation.

Very nice And the ambience in the deck core on the whole area is lovely inside, The staff will very attentive and helpful the food was fresh and first class

Amazing food and service as always

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Olive Tree Restaurant in Milton Keynes, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. As you walk in, the calming ambience immediately sets the tone for a relaxing meal. The decor is elegant yet welcoming, creating a perfect atmosphere for both casual and special occasions. The menu boasts a variety of both non-vegetarian and vegetarian dishes, catering to a wide range of tastes. The selection of hot and cold mezze is simply breath-taking, offering a tantalizing array of flavours that are sure to excite any palate. Each dish is prepared with great care and attention to detail, resulting in mouth-watering creations that leave you craving for more. Among the highlights, the signature dishes deserve a special mention. I highly recommend trying the Salmon or the Emperor's Chicken – both are exceptional and showcase the culinary prowess of the chefs. Every bite is a testament to the quality and freshness of the ingredients used.The staff at the Olive Tree Restaurant are incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that every guest feels welcome and well taken care of. One particular staff member, Gulcan, stood out for her exceptional service. Her helpful nature and warm demeanor added an extra touch of hospitality that made the dining experience even more enjoyable.Overall, the Olive Tree Restaurant offers a superb dining experience with its excellent food, inviting ambience, and top-notch service. Whether you're in the mood for a casual meal or celebrating a special occasion, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit. Just wanted to thank you to the chef Onur Hanife for preparing those lovely dishes for the photoshoot and also the lovely Gulcan for helping me label the dishes. Thank you again and next visit will be with my Family. Best wishes Rudi

Excellent food, staff very friendly definitely recommend this restaurant!!

We recently celebrated a significant event with a party of 20 at The Olive Tree, and the experience was nothing short of spectacular. This restaurant excels in accommodating large groups, providing an exceptional blend of atmosphere, service, and food that made our evening truly memorable.

Lovely food, friendly staff but dreadful noise and no place for quiet romantic meal if Mr and Mrs MK are out celebrating with the kids and neighbours.

Wonderful restaurant and the best food in Milton Keynes. Prawn guvec is to die for.😍Thank you for an amazing experience. The owner, Ibo, was very welcoming and friendly. We will see you again soon.❤️

Been a few times now and have not had one disappointment. Love the food, the service is very good and the pricing is fair.

Very delicious food . Highly recommend

Reserved online and got a call to confirm closer to the time. They kept a table for 8 even thought we were half an hour late. Excellent service from staff, attentive and quick. Food arrived really quickly and all together. Live singer but maybe unnecessary. Overall a great experience.

Delicious food and changed my order halfway through cooking, and it wasn't a problem.

Had platter for 2 of £50, 90% of the plate was rice, and some meat over it, the lamb ribs could not eat them as they were very hard… the rest of the meat compared to similar platters I had at the other Turkish restaurants only 2 stars…

Food was delicious, service fantastic. Screaming children brought down atmosphere.. decor was fine. Loved our meal!

Food is seriously sooo good here, if you love turkish and mediterranean food like I do. Great staff, was a little loud, but it was super busy, so no surprise there. Despite it being busy, we didn't wait too long for our food. Would definitely dine there again.

Loved the food , I had a traditional dish called Islim. And they have some other traditional options that I would like to try it next times.
