Frommer's Review
Delectables at bargain prices stream out of the tiny open kitchen here. Recently voted "best restaurant in Hawaii under $20" in a local survey, Olive Tree is every neighborhood's dream -- a totally hip restaurant with divine fare and friendly prices. The mussel ceviche is broke-the-mouth fabulous, with lemon, lime, capers, herbs, and olive oil -- a perfect blend of flavors. The creamy, tender chicken saffron, a frequent special, always elicits groans of pleasure, as does the robust and generous Greek salad, another Olive Tree attraction. I also love the souvlaki, ranging from fresh fish to chicken and lamb, spruced up with the chef's homemade yogurt-dill sauce. First, order and pay at the counter, then grab an umbrella table outside or one of a few seats indoors. Larger parties now have an awning over the sturdy wooden tables on the Koko Head side. A group can dine here like sultans without breaking the bank and take in a movie next door, too. BYOB.
