    Went for lunch with my wife this Sunday, plenty off street free parking. Staffs were extremely polite and friendly, which is quite rare nowadays. Service was very fast, got my lunch in less than 5min. Food was nice, coffee was brewed in front of you and the guys were very knowledgeable. Overall, we really enjoyed our lunch and would definitely go back to try other coffee.

    Nestled in the vibrant ambiance of Olympic Park, Oliver Brown offers a delightful culinary adventure, especially during Ramadan. I recently savored their iftar buffet dinner, a true celebration of Middle Eastern flavors. Stepping into the restaurant, I felt welcomed by its cozy atmosphere, perfectly complemented by the serene surroundings. What stood out was the heartwarming gesture of the host, who graciously offered to watch over my sleeping daughter while I explored the buffet—a thoughtful touch that set the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. Let's talk about the food—it was simply amazing. Each dish, from the succulent kebabs to the fragrant rice, was a testament to the rich and vibrant flavors of the Middle East. The variety of mezze, including creamy hummus and tangy baba ganoush, left me craving more, highlighting the freshness and authenticity of the ingredients. Overall, my time at Oliver Brown Olympic Park was exceptional. The impeccable service and mouthwatering cuisine surpassed my expectations. Whether you're a fan of Middle Eastern fare or simply seeking a memorable dining experience, a visit to Oliver Brown Olympic Park is highly recommended. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
