The Black Olive

Fettuccine pasta is my daughter's favorite here.
Unfortunately my sister ordered us a rather plan pizza to takeaway, but was still delicious. Love this place.

Another fantastic meal (Scotch Fillet), lovely atmosphere and attentive staff. Can't wait to visit again. Cheers team.

This Restaurant is Simply The Best. What a wonderful surprise! I've had the Beef Ribs, they were Perfect and the Sticky Toffee Pudding was the best dessert I've ever tried in my life. Not expensive at all, the service is Excellent. About food and restaurants it's "The Pearl" of Kerikeri. I will come back every time.

Absolutely phenomenal! Great service, very attentive staff and AMAZING food. The seafood risotto was fanatic and my partner loved the beef ribs, pizzas also looked incredible, we will definitely be back!

Lovely food with good service. Highly recommend the surf and turf, steak was cooked to perfection!

Not good unfortunately rib eye small and tough sauce sweet caramel colour a new experience.wont go back

Wow, a hidden gem! Those pizzas were aMAzing. Crispy, chewy crusts with one of the best toppings I've ever had. On a Tuesday night around 7pm, the place was humming, so book in advance. Order the large ones and bring some slices home. They're worth it.

My husband and I tried this place on Thursday night - they were busy - yet the service was super fast - I had the lamb shank and it was truely spot on - hubby had seafood risotto full of seafood and flavour he said!
The service was outstanding lovey & friendly!
Definitely will be going back next time we are in Kerikeri

Every time we have had a wonderful experience with impeccable service until this evening when I dined there with 3 small children the owner continuously kept uncomfortably eyeballing us making us feel extremely uncomfortable and was extremely rude.

Definitely NOT kid friendly.

My husband would prefer his lovely steak and mushroom sauce NOT plated directly on top of the fries.
A plus, the meals were on the large side and v tasty. Service was good too.

Brilliant meal and friendly staff. Well situated, and great variety menu. Chef well in the know when it comes to gluten free prep. Celiacs and vegetarians spoilt for choice. Highly recommended.

Absolutely loved it. Good food, good price. Place was comfortably full but we did get a table quickly at 6ish.

It was a Saturday night, every table full, but people were being served well by three or four waitresses and a waiter, first night on, originally from South Carolina! All competent and pleasant. The food was OK, the pizzas tasty, the fish and chips looked good, the olive pizza bread moreish, but my beans and spinach were overcooked, the wine was OK. Go for the atmosphere, service and good veggey choices.

Cosy warm with pleasant background music.
Very tasty lamb shank meal.
Perfect for a chilly night.

Always a pleasure to go to the Olive.
Good food, lovely atmosphere to sit, enjoy and relax while having great food.

Great place with fantastic staff. The rolled free range chicken is so tasty and the lamb shanks are fall of the bone, melt in the mouth deliciousness!

First time visited, had the steak surf and turf absolutely perfect. Cooked well, lovely staff. Bit pricey but the food reflected the value.

Yum. I had chicken fettuccine and My husband got a Scotch fillit. Then we ordered dessert. Yum. Really good food, well presented, service was exemplary. The bathrooms clean and tidy. Would go back. Well done, thank you.

Great meal Great service. We enjoyed the experience and would return when we visit the area again.

Love this place- the chairs are sooo comfy, the tables are solid, staff are great, and the food.well it’s just Kerikeri’s best kept secret!
