Purple Olive

A local favorite, the Purple Olive is a cozy bistro featuring a seasonal selection of small plates, flatbreads, and entrees by chef/owner Peter Kenney,  whose menu takes you on a global tour of sorts, with appetizers such as a delicious British Isles cheese plate or Mediterranean lamb meatballs; small plates including grilled stuffed eggplant or garlic shrimp; flatbreads like the filet mignon and gorgonzola; and entrees such as the grilled Maple Leaf Farms duck breast. Chef will happily pair any of their very good wines with your meal.
