Stopped in for lunch after visiting the mission. Seated on the nice outdoor patio under the shade. We ordered the share platter which had tzatziki, guacamole, hummus dips, dolmades and some type of patty with pita bread. The dips were delicious but the dolmades and patties weren't very nice. Also tried the baklava which was not good we couldn't even break it with a fork in half. Staff write friendly and fast

Fresh authentic Mediterranean food! Great Wines, hummus, gyro, grilled chicken, rice, baklava ice-cream. Flavorful but not spicy. Sit outside and enjoy. Not loud. Great for tourists and locals alike. Easy, free strip mall parking. Good for date night, handicap, families, (not small children). Well trained wait staff. Mid range. In my opinion, Olive(s) Branch should be given a Certificate of Excellence. We will be back.

Had the filet mignon plate which came with a salad, rice, grilled tomato half, and flat bread. Meat had gristle, so was disappointed since it was supposed to be filet mignon. Salad was fresh and good portion. Basically no service since you order at the counter but they bring the food to your table. Not much atmosphere. Located in a strip shopping mall.

4. Noon Kabob Mediterranean Grill
Reviewed By Adrienne E
Returning home from an appointment, I was hungry for lunch. At the last strip mall before the freeway ramp, I found Noon Kabob. Parking was easy,and the restaurant and restroom were clean and neat, if nondescript. I ordered a chicken salad and was given a number card and a cup to serve myself from the soft drink machine. The silverware placesettings, of which I took one back to my table, was wrapped in what looked like a paper napkin, but turned out to be a length of paper towel. Odd. I took a seat by the window. It was around 12:30, and the restaurant was nearly empty on a non-holiday Thursday.My salad came pretty quickly, and it was more abundant and better looking than the somewhat weary photo near the ordering station. Although the lettuce was just iceberg and the cut-up tomatoes were pale, the grilled chicken chunks, sliced Persian cucumbers, ripe olives, and feta cheese were portioned nicely. The salad also included strips of red onion, which I picked out one by one (I should've asked first), and a little plastic container of well flavored vinaigrette. The perfumy little red berries scattered about the salad were delicious, but I couldn't identify them. The chef said, barberries, an unexpected but nice addition to the generous salad.With a soft drink, my check totaled only $9.66. The food wasn't spectacular but tasty enough, filling, and close to the freeway ramp.
