An absolutely beautiful and tranquil restaurant. Both the food and the service was great. I would highly recommend this place. A few hours at Olive and Twist feels Ike a weekend away.
My hubby to be and me hosted a function at Olive on Saturday and it was faaaabulous! We had the best fun! The food was great and the staff were absolutely brilliant.! Thank you�
After seeing this on Zomato and realising it's about 200m from my house I got a chicken mayo pizza take away from them.
The staff were incredibly friendly and fell all over themselves to be of service but keep in mind that they only had two tables with people so I don't know what it is like when they are busy. I would like to think that they are their same friendly, helpful selves.
I waited about 10 minutes for the pizza and it was really delicious with a lot of filling.
I do think that for a take out R101 (odd amount) for a pizza is a little expensive but I suppose for a restaurant this is the norm (not sure).
The decor is really lovely with pictures of Bob Marley, Elvis Presley, etc on the walls. It looks like a lovely setting to have a relaxed meal with family and friends.
Short of the price tag, which I guess is not way off, I cannot fault them. Thank you for great service and a delicious pizza
Decent food, friendly staff and awesome kids play area where parents can watch while kids play. Not recommended for breakfast buffet - was sadly disappointing. But we come often for lunch and dinner and enjoy our meals.
Here in north riding we are blessed with so many pizza joints in close proximity, today was olive and twist’s turn. We opted for uber eats option so cannot really comment on the establishment or staff.
So lets get to the real important stuff, the food. To be honest the pizzas are just okay, miles ahead of the likes of debonairs or pizza hut but lacking behind its peers of “specialised” pizza joint. The toppings are generous and actually of good quality but its the pizza base that is disappointing, its thick, chewy (not in the good way) and just not what i like in a pizza base. The chicken mayo was good with decent amount of chicken. They have nice additional extras to build your own pizza. So better than the heavily commercialised places but lacking behind its competition in this neighborhood
One of the first places we visited when we started dating. We often forget about it when we decide where to go - but we REALLY shouldn't!
When we went there they had two birthday parties inside so we sat outside. The food came really quick for such a busy night! It was amazing. Romantic candle lit garden with clean tables - which means something because most places leave outside tables dirty.
Don't be a sheep, sit outside when you visit. It's so worth it!
Great family restaurant. Pizzas are top class. They have a little bar area which is good for watching the games. Management are hands on. Will be back
Another restaurant that has been on the waiting list for a while... lovely outdoor seating on the deck... friendly service without management hounding you as you take your first mouthful... we started with the focaccia, awesome thin base with a slight coating of mozzarella and herbs, it did need more garlic... the egg and steak was reasonably priced and cooked perfectly, it was served with a good sized and nicely dressed salad... the Uncles pizza, topped with bacon, figs and cherry tomatoes was a brilliant combination ... however it needed something else, maybe some herbs or garlic, maybe chillies?? Not too sure, just a little lacking... wonderful Sunday lunch with incredible company...
We went to Olive n Twist for a birthday and had such a lovely experience! It is beautiful there and we loved their little italian buffet! Lasagne is a must there and we look forward to our return.
A bit of a hidden gem.
We tend to only order pizzas and sushi whenever we go to Olive n Twist. The pizzas are fantastic and everyone has their favorite.
Very children friendly
Went here for a friends birthday dinner & really enjoyed it! The menu has lots of delicious items & the service was good. I had grilled chicken breast with onions and avo and a side salad. It was delicious but unfortunately my chicken was abit raw in the middle. Will be back to try their pizzas!
Beautiful setting and divine food. We had delicious scampi prawns for starters, fillet steak done just as we asked for mains and ice cream for dessert. Bought the Groupon special and staff were extremely accommodating. Efficient service and attentive owner. Prices are reasonable as well. Will definitely be back!
