So Fn good. I'm writing this review as I wait for my order, the second time in 2 days (today date Sept 25, 2024 @ 5:40pm) First off, the dude behind the till, that welcomed me and made my order, was pleasant, friendly and very knowledgeable. I ordered the EXACT same thing today as I did yesterday. Beef Donaire, feta, hot peppers and the Greek fries. UNBELIEVABLE. Seriously, the pita...it's not like every other pita you get at every single Donaire shop...this was squishy. Soft, thick...and flavorful. Well done boys. You've got a devoted customer. Consistency is key. Damn it's good.
Nice small restaurant. The guy who took my order was pleasant. I ordered my food, and it came out quickly and fresh. The meat was tender with good flavor. I recommend this place if your in the area.
Just came here today on my lunch break, ordered a Greek chicken donair and it said it had all these veggies on it but mine just has chicken and some sad shredded lettuce :(
6 stars! Had the lamb platter with lemon cumin spices potatoes, Greek salad and rice. Came with Pita and tzatziki. The Greek salad was a generous portion of crisp fresh vegetables, the lamb was incredibly tender and flavourful and the potatoes were a different type of lemon potatoes than I’ve had before. They were a lil spicy but I didn’t mind them, cooked perfectly. To top it off, all the staff there were very nice, smiled and made eye contact while communicating. Very friendly and they all took their time to walk by the table and say hello. All in all it was my best experience eating out while traveling through this area. Highly recommend eating here, the portions are very generous you definitely get what you’re paying for and more. Thanks for the great experience I’ll be back next time coming through town!
Second time coming here since the shutdowns. Food was absolutely on point. Had the lamb platter, with Greek potatoes. Absolutely delicious. Food was hot, quick and very attractively presented. For a small place, these folks sure know how to serve to satisfy. The place is clean, even considering the dusty environment downtown. Detail clean. I recommend this place to everyone. We will be back for sure.
We had dinner here and the butter chicken did not disappoint! The serving is massive!! (Chef's kiss) this is added on our to go list!! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. 👍
Stopped here for lunch. Great menu. Ordered buttered chicken ate it before thinking I should have taken a picture. Just the right amount of spice. Delicious. My friend ordered mad Greek donar. Excellent, friendly service.
Super friendly management, great food including custom cakes and wonderful service! The owner made my daughter the most amazing custom cake for her 16th birthday and was so good about incorporating all the ideas I shared. The cake turned out perfectly - not only gorgeous but delicious as well. I highly recommend this business.
Best donair in town
Everything was absolutely delicious,tasted amazing and was cooked to perfection
Very rare to see such a meal setting
OmG! Delicious Food! This is my new favourite spot to eat at
The food is delicious! The man who took our orders was extremely friendly and helpful. Pricing is not bad for the food quality.
Ordered chicken souvlaki platter. Chicken was undercooked and over seasoned. Rice was inedible there was so much seasoning on it. I threw 2/3 of it out. Worst Greek food I ve ever eaten.
first time eating there the service was fantastic very nice people !! the food was delicious also
We re visiting FSJ for the Easter weekend Ordered take out on a Friday night. 2 Greek salads with chicken and a donair. I had ordered the dressing on the side of the salads and it came smothered in dressing. Most of the salad was lettuce and tomato with small bits of green peppers, a few cucumbers and next to no feta cheese. I ve never had a Greek salad with lettuce before. It made the whole thing slimy. The worst part for me was that the chicken did not taste Greek it tasted like Indian chicken. I am not a big fan of curry and that s all I could taste. I ate about half and threw the rest of it away. As for the baclava, it was some dried bits of sweet walnut in a tiny fold of phyllo. Certainly not the layers of gooey honey baclava I have had in the past. Very disappointing and we will not order from here again.
Amazing food and excellent customer service.
Id come in mid April, later in the evening at around 845pm, words cant express how much me and my road trip companion enjoyed the Chicken Quesadilla, Greek Rice, and Greek Salad (Id mixed the rice and salad, amazing!). I can honestly say Ive never had such nutritionally beneficial and delicious grub on the road. The guy that served me was really kind, and it was a quiet place, I enjoyed the decor, bet its really nice during the day. Paid 29 bucks and felt very satisfied with the large, fair portions that Id shared.
Delicious donairs, flatbread was also really good aswell. But the donair size is very small in comparison to most donairs, and doesnt quite satisfy my hunger. Bigger donair options or bigger donairs would improve my review!
100% recommend the lamb! On a visit to FSJ, it was suggested that if I try Olive Tree, definitely get the lamb. I was not disappointed. Ive eaten my fair share of donairs, gyros and shawarma. Ive never had better lamb anywhere! It was tender, moist, and so flavorful. There was a bit of sticker shock at the price but whats not expensive these days. I would definitely go back.
I ordered it off Doordash the first time and I was amazed at the food quality. Then I ordered it again a week later thinking theres no way it could be that good, twice in a row. It was delicious, my friends. Both times, I inhaled my meal like a hyena and I dont regret it.
close at 9pm, not 10 like it says on their google
Barley soup is so good !
Wicked good Falafel donair.
Very tasty food and excellent customer service.
Donair is the best in town, but the main event is the caesar salad lol, you wont be disappointed.
Service and food were good, although the beef donair that we ordered was on the salty side, they should turn down a bit on salt but otherwise all good
I heard great things and it was all true! The lamb donair was amazing. Super tender and delicious. I highly recommend. Nice staff too.
Good food and amazing service.
So delicious! My go to date with my daughter after her Orthodontist appointment now! Staff are so friendly and the gyros are always delicious!
Basic cuisine, frozen products, slow service.. dry and bland dishes.. A bit expensive for that. Its better than fast food but disappointing.
Food was so good. Will be nice when the construction is done
We ordered Beef Donair, Chicken Souvlaki, and strawberry mousse. It was very delicious. Also, we got a taste of Baklava. Oh gosh! It s very good.
I want to express my deep appreciation to the staff of the olive tree in Fort St John. Delicious food freshly made and super friendly service. Made my stay in Fort St John during the evacuation time very pleasant. Great food and excellent accommodating staff thank you.
Donair was weak compared to big mamas, Just go to big mamas for donairs, went here due to big mamas door being busted, and was let down due to this place being a 1/10 in price and food portioning, Service was great, Food was eh
Worst place to order cake, i call them few times to ask for cake. They said I ll call back never called and when i call them back they were so rude
Delicious! Picked up to go, it was fresh and fast! We ll be back!
Great food and generous portions. More of a delivery or takeout place.
The taco salad is delicious!
Cake was very delicious. Everyone loved it.Thank you for making such a wonderful cake.
I had the mad Greek.... I got a tiny little wrap with 1 Oz of beef. Cost $18. I feel like I was robbed at least $11. Whatever they ship the meat in by double-engine jet from Bermuda triangles?
Friendly staff in a cool environment. Lamb and Falafel donair were tasty
Chicken souvlaki tasted moldy. Everything else was fine, just couldn t finish the Skewers
The food was so great, filling but not uncomfortably heavy. I got the chicken donair with a mix of the tzatziki and sweet sauce, and greek salad. I loved it a lot. I would come here again.
Obnoxious prices for food, the dozen dinners in the grocery isle offer more of a serving size than this place and it s cheaper. Never again
Lovely appetizers!
I was getting ready to tear this place apart with this review, until I actually tried the food. Let me explain: I called to place my order for take out based on the online menu. The gentleman over the phone was friendly and answered my questions about the menu well. Now, upon arriving at the restaurant to pick up my order I was surprised to see that not only was the price of what I ordered more than what I had expected, but the portion sizes were less. I ordered the souvlaki platter which (online) states 3 skewers, rice, potatoes, pita, Greek salad for $19.99. The restaurant menu says the platter only comes with 2 skewers, no salad and the price is increased to $23.99; this is extremely unprofessional. The gentleman working did honour the online menu and give me three skewers but did not give me the Greek salad. This needs to be corrected, and in the interim, patrons should be notified about the discrepancy when ordering over the phone. The food however was AMAZING. The chicken was tender and juicy, the pita was fluffy, potatoes were incredibly well seasoned, and the tzatziki was winning all around. Despite the discrepancies between menus, I don t have enough good things to say about the food itself. I do believe that the platter should come with 3 skewers and the salad, especially at the $23.99 price point otherwise it s hard to justify the cost on taste alone. The portion needs to be there as well.
Best donairs in town
The best donairs in town. We went in the early afternoon and it was quiet and the staff was super helpful when i asked for gluten free. Definitely worth checking out!
Best donair and best quality. Always lots of food at a good price.
fries were not cooked donair was more like soup with the amount of sauce on it meat was so overcooked I probably wouldnt feed it to the dog. it was a huge fight just to get my money back. Ive heard its new owners the old ones were amazing sad to say my experience this time wont give them my business anymore.
This was my first time trying this place, we got there and was empty apparently they were working on delivery orders, so we asked if it was okay for dine in, the lady said yes. At the end we were waiting 10 min, no one came to the table, without menu, so we started calling for someone, no one came. My wife went to check in the kitchen to ask again if it was okay to dine in if there was a menu or something, so just then the lady handed my wife a menu, my wife came back to the table with the menu and asked me what I wanted to order . What it s they point of going out? Maybe this place just works to order delivery or take out. We just left, a waste of time.
Nobody was in the restaurant when we arrived, we ordered three plates and it took over 30 minutes for just my food to reach the table, the only customers that came in after were 3 door dash deliveries. My quesadilla was not worth 16 dollars, it was half the size of something you d get at Boston Pizza (for cheaper at that) and it was not very warm and extremely salty. The other two members of my party ordered vegetarian plates (falafel) and were finally served chicken souvlaki . No discount for the corrected plates, given the time it took. Staff was not very apologetic over this, and *eventually* corrected the plates. I watched some other customer come in after we finally got our food and he finally got up and left after about 15 minutes of waiting. Definitely need management improvements, particularly with time management for meal preparation. Both staff seemed very unorganized and I felt rather bad for them. Hopefully some management changes will correct this. Don t think I will be back.
Always a joy to order a meal here. Beautifully seasoned lamb. briny Greek salad warm thick pita bread ..lemony Greek potatoes ..and a tzatziki with a bite We would love too see calamari on the menu.. but otherwise . the best food in town from the kitchen of experienced professionals!
Love there donairs and the people are fantastic. Highly recommend!
After Pacifically asking for to Zieke sauce they forgot to put it in the bag and the restaurant is closed for the night
Great food, friendly staff. Will be back.
First time here. Wont be the last. Had the lamb donair. Perfect. But I really want to try that butter chicken taco...
Amazing food. Amazing service. Love this place!
Best Greek Salad in town! I have mine with lamb which I recommend, its always cooked perfectly. Service is great too.
Get the lamb donair you wont be disappointed, the pita is soft and flavorful, and the lamb meat is very tender, some pieces pull apart like its a 8 hour brisket. Olive tree is right up there with basha donair, this was my first time here and wont be the last :)
The wraps and Greek salad are very good. The pita they use is more of a naan type bread, rather than a typical grocery store pita, which is really good in my opinion. The food is a tad expensive, but its what you would expect up north.
This spot has amazing food and even kinder service. I highly recommend!
Donairs are delicious, we had the beef, lamb and chicken and all we very flavourful! Service was excellent!!
Best Donairs in FSJ. Staffs are always ready to help especially Johan.
By far the best Donaire in town, flavor was great, only wish they where a bit bigger, but spot on quality. Cheers brotha well be back.
Delicious lunch and excellent customer service!
One of my favourite places to take people to eat. Amazing service, just a little slow for as large group as we had. Would highly recommend. Where hear for the food.
I ordered the lamb combo with the gluten free option and Greek fries. It was lukewarm when it got here. I asked for extra meat (and paid for it) and did not get any. There were barely any veggies (onions and tomatoes) in the wrap. I paid extra for the Greek fries as well. They were dark, like over cooked or cooked in really dirty oil and they had barely any feta cheese on them.the fries were supposed to come with sauce and I got none. I was disappointed with my meal and will probably never order from here again. I paid around $40 for something that was worth $10. If there was an option for giving half a star I would have given that. So so very disappointing.
Best donairs in town and the lamb platter is delicious and filling.
Just wanted to share a photo of the fantastic wedding cake made by your wonderful European pastry chef - it had top notch ingredients and was professionally and beautifully decorated to our exact specs. Thank you again to the chef as well because it was also a last minute order. I highly recommend people order cakes from this place - it is not advertised as much as it should be for this purpose.
Amazing donair
I ordered the chicken souvlaki plater and it was so horrible that I gagged and I even payed to have extra souvlaki skewrs and everything when in the grabbage and I tried everything and the only thing that was suitable to eat was the greek salad ... Im sorry was not a good experience at all....
This place has hands down the best fries in town. No frozen bull$#!+. Small but hardworking staff. Donairs are of top quality.
Good food and great gluten free options.
Awful just awful, took too long and nobody was wearing gloves while prepping our food and touching surfaces at the same time. Food is overpriced and is a disgrace to shwarmas
The absolute best donairs in town. Great prices and super friendly staff.
Great food! Great service! Clean establishment! Great hours! Fresh ingredients! Can t go wrong here! Best meal I had on a 2450 mile trip this past weekend!
The best cakes in town
Decent but pricey
This place is amazing! I live on Vancouver Island but every time im here for work I have to get something from here. The lamb wraps are incredible and the sweet sauce is mind blowing!
Wow so delicious. Just grabbed a quick dinner after staying at work late and it was just what I needed. Fast, healthy, delicious and well priced. Got the chicken donair and a side salad it did not disappoint.
Surprised to find decent butter chicken in FSJ from a Mediterranean joint... But yea, the butter chicken is lit - chicken is tender af and the sauce is delicious. Only wish I had ordered two. Also got a donair or something, cant remember... it was really decent too. I should have taken a picture cause the presentation was really good for takeout.
Plain atmosphere but delicious food.
Food was fresh. Tasted alright.
Everything was delicious
Delicious food, great service . Homemade treats .
I order a taco salad but with butter chicken instead & its the best. Great owners with fantastic staff.
Reccomend getting something with the lamb. Its very tender and delicious. It melts in your mouth. There fries are perfect- fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside with the right amount of salt. Picked up these Chocolate Bon Bons the other day, a fancy treat that was not only beautiful (check out the gold sparkles!) but quite delicious! This place is great! Not only is their food delicious but they are truly great dessert artists as well!
I ordered Eggleston cake for my daughter it was really good.taste perfect. Ordered unicorn cake.very nice presentation .. we all liked it.. thanks olive tree Mediterranean..
Very disappointing food.
The Best Donair and CAKES in town. You need order ahead of time for cakes but the wait really worth it.
This is the best place in town for ordering cakes. They did such an amazing work on the one I ordered. The beauty and the taste both were perfect. Great job and excellent customer service!!!!
Great donairs. Fresh ingredients
Excellent food, friendly service, always the best there!
Good food, nice atmosphere, awesome people.
Delicious. Thanks for the great chicken donair :)
Serves great Dosas.
Nice restaurant. Friendly owner and delicious dosa. They can also make cake on order as well. Awesome work guys!!!!
Great food! Always love to go and have the special Dosa on Saturdays
The place has new owners and they still make the same great donair. They also have butter chicken flavour. Yum
Great food, large portions, had meals for 4 in 10 minutes. Will definitely be back.
Awesome food, owners are extremely friendly great people. Best donair in town hands down and their baked goods are hand made and absolutely delicious! Recommend these guys to all my friends!
The food is amazing and the service is the most humble and generous service Ive had in a long time. This little spot was hiding but Im so glad we found it because I will be eating here more often. Highly recommended!!
Best Donair in Fort Saint John
Best chicken donair ever!!!
great food and great customer service ! very friendly and welcoming. best place in town
Best lamb dish I ever had in Fort St. John. Lamb is tender, moist and perfectly seasoned. I had a lamb donair, and everything was perfect from the pita bread to amount of vegetables. Highly recommended.
Good food and staff
It was the best Indian food I have ever tasted and good customer service
The donairs & Butter Chicken here are amazing
Best donair in town, quick service
Food was good but asked for no peppers due too an allergy so they wrote no peppers on it yet hey guess what still full of peppers......
Great meal, one of the best donairs I have had in BC!
I just tried quesadillas and fries.. tasty!
Best pitas and sauce for a donair in town. Wish the meat had more spice in it though and got you more for your money. Great quality and cleanliness. Very much recommended.
Great food, great people. Overall a great experience.
Tasty food, excellent service, and great value!! Highly recommend.
Its like an 11 out of 10 !
So much food and so delicious.
Great food if you love Greek food
Love the food here! Always amazing and never can finish everything, so full after. Best Donaires in town by far
Suberb food, brilliant service!
Really like it here. Good fresh food and awesome home made soups.
One of the best Donaires I have ever had and very generous portions. There only have about 4 items on the menu but all of them are delicious. My only criticism, which is almost not worth mentioning, is they dont have fountain drinks, only bottles and cans.
Wonderful service. Super yummy Greek salad and beef donair
The service is great, very friendly and the food is very delicious!!
Good beef donairs though sometimes a little too juicy. Still the best donairs in town though!
Food is good but prices are high and the service is sub par
Great food
Always tasty!
Great food, nice atmosphere.
Best donairs and the new pastries were very good
Best donairs in town
Lamb Donair was good, but there was too much meat and not enough bread. The beef vegetable soup was pretty good. Quite pricey, too.
I really like the chicken caesar salad! Good donairs as well. Can be on the pricey side.
Great food and generous portions! Excellent service too!
Food is great, service is friendly, but like many others I find the prices a little high to go too often.
Best fries in town! Simple menu which ensures the donairs are always amazing and the lunch special is always great.
Quaint cafe.
Large portions of healthy food. Had the lamb donar with green salad. Delicious!
Nice fresh donairs
Fantastic beef donair and very fresh tossed salad with a very tasty home made dressing. Never a bad meal here!
Clean. Self-serve counter. Food was acceptable but nothing to rave about.
Good food
Good food
Awesome food, awesome staff. Best Greek salad in town.
The best in town!
The lamb donair was excellent service was great. Will come back again for sure.
Good food
Food is consistently great. Prices are too high. Salads are small. Lunch $20.00 per person for counter service.
Excellent food. Decent prices. Lots of food. Our food arrived quickly considering how busy it was. I would definitely go back.
Amazing! The Lamb donair with tzatziki is great.
Food was good. Decent counter service. You can watch the chef cook your foodas they cook right there. Nice simple menu. A little on the high price side.
Always amazing food and great customer service! Very friendly owners.
Great eat in experience. Love the glass coke bottles. The donairs are the best in town with a homemade taziki sauce. Best place in town.
Excellent food. The chicken Greek salad was lovely.
Awesome donairs
Good
Awesome, best donairs in town
Great fries and Greek salad.
Great food :)
Quite expensive for a sub par donair. Claims to have best donair in town which i guess aint saying much. If your reading this Olive Tree i would recommend adding a sweet sauce to balance the harshness of your taziki also the lamb was extremely dry, other then those transgressions the vegetables were decently fresh and the wrap nice and doughy. Some serious potential here with a few tweaks.
Lunch special is great. Service is good.
Had the lamb donair, the tzatziki was delicious best Ive had. The lamb was moist too, but the fries were a little dark. The oil has to be changed sometime soon, but would come back.
Great unique taste
Love their Greek Salad but I do find the prices to be a bit high.
