"Food was horrible!
Every course tasted stale and dry seems like it had been premade and just scooped up as orders came in
Dessert was lack luster only thing that saved the nite was the filet mignon which was tender... Don't go here!"

"We had the prie fixe dinner. It was delicious. The server Jason was great. Eat downstairs by the stone walls very intimate.My husband loved the Pilsner beer. The filet was like like meat butter, if there is such a thing.Mmmm.
The scallop course was yummy,too. I was not a fan of the pork ( a little dry) but the grits with it was fantastic. I truly loved it."

"9 Olives is fantastic! Surprisingly the restaurant didn't have a whole lot of people in it, but I think that's just because its hard to find (the sign is not very visible from the street). But the food was amazing and the service was excellent as well. They also have some really great signature coctails too. If you like good food/drinks and a quiet-ish place to enjoy them with friends, try this place out. You won't regret it."

"I picked this place because of all the quality reviews. However, when we arrived on a 'busy' Friday night it was completely dead. My date and I accounted for the 4th and 5th guests dining there. The food was ok. Not great, ok. Our server was attentive, because he had nothing else to do. But he was not very confident in the food or the restaurant. The drinks were bad and I felt embarrassed to bring a date to an empty restaurant on Sunset."

"For once, we weren't blasted out of our seats with the noise. We've been there twice. My husband liked the jambalaya so much the first time, he was easily persuaded to eat there again. The had changed their menu to offer more Mediterranean and fewer southern dishes and the jambalaya wasn't on the menu. For kicks, we asked if the chef would consider making it for him, and, to our surprise, he said that he'd be happy to! Both menues were great, but there is a bit too much oil in the food. Other than that, it was a very good meal."

"First off I would like to say that the restaurant has no parking.. This was not made clear on their wedsite and although there are lots of Valet parking in the area it's still a inconvenience. The waitress was pleasant but not very knowledgeable on the menu and had to be prompted to explain the dishes. But by far the biggest issue was that my 7 year old son ordered sliders and while eating one almost chocked on a large piece of bone that was inside the meat! This is inexcusable and very dangerous. The waitress apologized, no one from management spoke to us but at the end of the meal they compted 2 desserts! If that was supposed to make up for the fiasco it certainly didn't ."
