ilOve Olive

The first place I have to tell you all about is Olive Café. It’s a little café hidden on Santa Clara Street down on Mission Bay. It has everything from breakfast to lunch to dessert. Some of its best breakfast includes different types of burritos, breakfast scrambles, the best French toast and pancakes that you will ever have (they shouldn’t even be considered breakfast it’s more like dessert they are so delicious), and more. For lunch they have every type of delicious sandwich, with their own type of spin on it. Their turkey clubs are scrumptious as well as any of their salads and burritos. One thing Olive is famous for is their salsa. If you ever order a burrito or breakfast scramble or chips, make sure you get triple extra salsa. Also, one thing I CANNOT leave without when I go to Olive is their Acai bowls. And if you’ve never had an Acai bowl, try Olive’s first because it is topped with bananas, strawberries, blueberries, granola and honey. It’s so refreshing and delicious and you cannot go wrong with getting an Acai bowl from Olive. In truth, you can’t go wrong with getting anything at Olive (key word for this restaurant: delicious). The price is also really affordable and extraordinary for the quality and quantity of the food. I’m on the crew team at my University and after every morning practice (literally) we got food at Olive. It’s like a home-cooked meal and the people who work there treat you like their family, and if you go there often enough they will know you by name. And you will ALWAYS see other students there. In short, ilOve Olive.
