Greek, Asian Menu items
Pita was ok. Tzaskiki was oddly more sweet than garlic. 🧄 All in all a solid ok for mall Greek food
The new owner has operated the cafe for a year. They are Asian so they add Asian food on the menu. Recommended grilled pork belly ribs, wonton soup, Halo Halo ( a Philippines, dessert), Coconut espresso. As I’m on diet , I requested to skip the rice. So they added more grilled pork belly for my plate at the same price$. The owner was working in my hometown before so we can communicate by my hometown language. They are very nice people.
Hands down the worst gyro I have had. I’m sorry Aida but 2 pieces, yes TWO PIECES of paper thin and over cooked/hardened gyro meat @$15 is unacceptable, it’s more of a salad than a gyro…. Premade meat from a supplier is just awful and shows no passion for the food itself. I really wanted to like the new ownership but sadly I won’t be back. Sorry again but my heart believes you should get rid of the Greek food and do your own amazing Asian style cooking :)
Have my lunch today freshly cook pansit , skewer with nan bread. So delicious perfect Pinoy and Greece fusion. Aside from the food the authentic friendly service like you feel at home ❤️
Its a great place to enjoy your breakfast , lunch an dinner and even just for a snack. A Greek and Filipino fusion meals with a lot of selection of drinks from milk tea, to juices and soft drinks. The Pizza, Ribs Pork Adobo is superb yummy! The authentic Cold Pilipino Dessert Halo halo is Perfect! Overload with delicious toppings! and of course a friendly service with a genuine smile.
We went to visit from Comox Valley and I was craving for rice. I did not see right away that they have Filipino food. Ate Aida, the owner was soo nice and generous with my order. The pork adobo really satisfied my cravings. We will come here everytime we go to Victoria. Good luck Ate Aida.. Salamat po. :)
Came back here after a long few years and was delighted to see it's still open. The new management is amazing and the ladies who work there are so wonderful and sweet it's a pleasure to see their smiles each day and you can see how many customers enjoy going there for lunch. I had the souvlaki wrap and saw the halo halo drink on the menu, couldn't stop thinking about it so I came back and all I can say is wow! Exceptional ladies there who make everything from scratch and the drink was beautiful and delicious! They made sure I knew all the ingredients and how to eat it and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. 10/10! Thank you!
One of my fave places who serves filipino dish. Food was delicious and service was exceptional! You can order and customize the food to your liking too.
Sisig wrap is soooo tasty.
A great little spot we have been coming to for years! Aida treats us so well, the food is amazing! Kid-friendliness: Always so welcoming, really treats my son well!
An absolute a joke of a restaurant. Ordered the gyro wrap, by itself for over $15 and couldn t even see the meat or taste it over the salad and dressing on top. I asked when I watched her open a Tupperware container and lay 5 thin pieces of meat on the flat top, where she gets the meat from and she told me Sysco! Hahahahaha!!!!! This gyro reminded me of the other Sysco based gyro I had at that Greek on the street place! Absolutely garbage food, both places! You re better of going to Opa! Sad but true.
I love their pizzas. Very tasty!
Went here 2 days in a row. 1) went with a friend had the delicious falafel wrap, which mirrored the old owners. She had the chicken wrap and also said this was delicious 2) the first day I did not notice the wall of Filipino choices right away (including the pork belly)so me and my husband returned today just to get that. The owner was generous, kind and friendly. Want to go back to try the halo halo
I bought lunch from this store, it was super delicious and affordable . I cannot recommend it enough.
Pleasantly surprised! Tiny little place. Quaint, great service and great food!
Since the very first time, I fell in love with how fresh the products are. What I usually have : 1 veggie pizza slice 1 pecan treat And also had Combo A which is spectacular!!! I guess this is the 20 something visit made to this restaurant and it has been always delicious and fresh great energy produced items (I believe that energy and happiness is also transmitted while cooking to the food we get) so this place is just perfect! Customer service: stellar!
What a hidden gem! This was one of the best Pork Gyros I ve ever had. Excellently toasted wrap, fresh vegetables, great sauce, and very friendly staff. Check it out!
Awesome new owners. This place was good before but it s 10x better now
Such an incredible little restaurant, amazing ownership and food is always so great.
Tried their new Oreo milkshake, it was delicious and I couldn t recommend it enough.
Best Halo Halo in town! Super friendly service and town! Ate Aida is super nice and very pleasant!
Delicious- a treat when you re rushed and don t want fast food
Amazing experience!!
Great food, best halohalo
Mediterranean and Filipino food that will fill your belly with cultural experience and price range is good.
Good food and good helpful staffs
Food was delicious, a big improvement from the previous owner. Very quaint atmosphere.
Delicious
Every bite takes you back to your homeland, Philippines.
The owner is always smiling and the pork belly is delicious! Parking: No problem at the parking at all and the store is beside A&W Food : 5/5 |
Dietary restrictions: No concern Food
Good for the price, especially in todays economy. Lots of healthy options, made fresh. Parking: Mall parking lot Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor and wide space to counter to fit any chair or mobility device
Excellent food. Exceptional service. Surely recommended place.
Amazing filipino food, especially the sisig and adobo. Would definitely recommend 100%
Good food and nice staff. Highly recommend their spring rolls, adobo, and halo-halo!
I was welcomed with friendly smiles, from the amazing NEW OWNERS! My meal was delicious I can t wait to try all the NEW items they have on the menu! Food : 5/5
New owner is very friendly and inviting. Food is amazing!! New menu items and a breakfast menu too.
New management and new food with an amazing twist! You have to come check it out, so much better than it was before! Food was a 10/10
Amazing customer service & great food. thank you so much to the young lady working for being so kind. Definitely a regular after today s visit.
We ordered Gyros and Baklava. Pita bread,lettuce , tomatoe ok . Very little meat and tasteless. Texture like a luncheon meat . Too much sauce, maybe to cover the other ingredients that was lacking. The baklava was stale. The honey had hardened. I thought i was going to break a tooth. THe price was too much for what it was . This place was ok at one time. Now not even edible now..
Souvlaki wraps are out of this world!
I love the pork souvlaki! Very filling. New owner is very nice. Try the halo halo!
This place isn t good. There s no love in the food. Dry pita with processed meat. Not everyone needs to run a restaurant. If you don t like cooking what s even the point? Choose to run a business you re passionate about
Had the best experience ever! We came in for lunch on our way back to the mainland and were not disappointed. The Olive Branch has the friendliest customer service and we were treated like family! Everything is perfectly spiced and homemade, the value is amazing, and the lumpia are especially delicious! We had the opportunity to sit down and have a conversation with Ida who I believe is the owner and she was the absolute sweetest human being. She made our day and our trip! Highly recommend and we will be back Vegetarian options: Plenty of options for non meat eaters! Dietary restrictions: Super accommodating to my substitutions, didn t charge extra for anything
Spanakopita was so undercooked it made me queasy and it was 8.99 for two small pieces
Gyros are good, service is nice enough. Though, even for a mall joint, the atmosphere could use improvement
The lady at the counter was very friendly and the food was great! Zero complaints :)
I ordered a Gyro, it was so good, made very fast and best customer service. The woman who took my order and made my food was super sweet and totally made my day!
I cant recommend eating here since the change in ownership.
Some of the best pizza Ive had in this city
Decent gyro but not real gyro meat (comes out of package)
Worst customer service I have ever received in my life.Been going there for years but will never go again because of the girl who was working there tonight who made fun of me for wearing a face mask to protect myself from Covid.Told her is was my choice to wear a mask and walked out and will never go back after being a customer for almost 20 years.
I had the same experience as what last customer Peter had when I went there tonight she was making fun of me wearing the mask complaining about it and she was very rude she was just very unprofessional I will never will go back there again.
Tasted like the intro to a Kitchen Nightmares episode. Souvlaki was Lukewarm at best, with pre-cooked, unheated chicken drenched in what I assume was supposed to be tatziki but looked like dill yogurt soup. Greek salad was, surprisingly, worse.
Food was good, atmosphere lacking a bit, friendly service. I go here from time to time.
Worst service I have ever experienced from a restaurant. Manager was rude and hung up phone as she stated she was tired and didnt feel like working today when I called to place an order for delivery.. I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone and will never return.
Gross food, grosser people! Their Greek is WEAK!
Used to love this place/staff but recently a new girl has been working that is more interested in her phone and having very unprofessional conversations. Finally walked out after waiting 5 minutes for her to finish an inappropriate conversation with another woman. Would give 0 stars based solely on her attitude if I could.
Amazing food. I absolutely love it. The pita is great. The rice and chicken is also good. It s well prepared and not your stock greek food. Highly recommend.
If the girl is rude to the customers food is edible at best I go to the mall all the time I see it and hear it with other people as well
Awesome food! Great music! The girls that work there are always so nice
rubber chicken souvlaki.. rice is microwaved back to crispy hard.. greek salad is actually Italian dressing soup and the hummus expired... good water, pita and tzatziki though but a 15.00 meal anywhere in the world
Fast, covid-friendly takeout. Good pita and fresh veggies, tzatziki in my gyro
Delicious food and awesome service. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to try something new.
Food was cold, chicken in my daughters wrap was undercooked and the baklava was like eating a hockey puck. Very disappointed
Horrible, they dont know how to do worse
Paid $15 for a combo...and I didnt look at the food before I left. I got the platter / big combo. I got a portion size that would satisfy a small child at best. Nice people but jeez...ya know.
A little hole in the wall place in the Tillicum Mall joyfully placed next to a fast food joint does good business due to its good Mediterranean menu. Its my go-to spot for falafel sandwich wrap and gyros and their pizza is great for counter service or a sit-down. The regular staff are friendly and dedicated to quality preparation. I would give 4 stars, however the price of beverages is a tad steep. I have been going here for more than 10 years and will continue to do so. Great place to have pre movie bite and much cheaper and tastier than the theatre menu.
Gyro.
Fast food Greek place in a mall. Tzatziki lacked flavour. Staff seemed bored.
Had a really good falafal wrap.
Nice meals
Amazing little gem in the downstairs. Fresh food made by staff, clean, reasonable price and tasty, served by friendly woman. Will go back when I go to the Tillicum mall.
Their pita wraps are the best
Very good humus and pitas.
Great place! We stopped by to eat lunch today and couldnt believe how amazing the food is here! Highly recommend you checkout this place next time your looking for Greek style food. Thanks!
Great food and great service
Personable staff, friendly, very careful with special orders.
The bf and I just ordered from the olive branch via skip the dishes. Very happily surprised by the quality of food. The falafel and spanakopita are amazing!
Tiny, not very wide range of selections but fast service.
Great Gyros! Very friendly staff and fast service. Keep coming back.
Better than we expected, great alternative to the fast food burger place next door. I had a gyros wrap which was really good and the girlfriend had a chicken skewer with Greek salad, best food in Tillicum mall.
Ordered through skip the dishes and it was absolutely horrible. Paid 30$ for the skimpiest meal ive ever seen. Do not order the caesar salad to go they give you 3 bites of lettuce with basic dressing and nothing else. Also the souvlaki was completely overcooked and dry i gave the rest to my dog. I will absolutely never order from here again total waste of my money.
Not a great experience. We got here a bit before they closed, so they were unwilling to make anything fresh, so instead we had their pizza by the slice. It certainly wasnt awful, but Id recommend not coming here unless youre looking for middle tier mall food.
nice little spot
Cold, blah pizza
Excellent!!! Simple place with delicious food and great costumer service. Also very good price!
I have a dairy allergy and the server double checked the pitas and was so accommodating when she found dairy in them. She provided a really delicious dairy free option for us!
Pizza and greek wraps (souvlaki.gryos) tasty. Tables to sit. Soft drinks.water and coffee available
Pretty typical mall Greek fast food. Not bad if youre at the mall, but certainly not worth a special trip.
Tasty vegetarian souvlakis loaded with roasted veggies and humous.
Best donairs in Victoria. Yummy yummy.
A great place to grab a snack and enjoy the Mall, Good food and awesome coffee. The service is great and the owner is well loved by all his neighbours.
Dont eat here, the owner is agessive and hostile towards people.
