Editorial Review

Cafe Ole is a Mediterranean restaurant in the Tenleytown area that specializes in mezze, panini and salads, and anything can be prepared to go. The mezze, small plates not unlike tapas, include grilled calamari, hummus, chicken shawarma (chicken marinated in garlic and zahtar, tossed with pickled turnips and tomato and topped with garlic yogurt and pita chips), spinach and feta tatin (puffed pastry topped with spinach, feta and spices, then baked and served atop a bed of greens) and tabbouleh. More than a dozen items on the menu are vegetarian.

Delicious little treats!

Posted by joliedaisy24 | Oct 16, 2009 | Mark as Inappropriate

Cafe Ole serves excellent little mezze dishes (tapas style, but much better!) so you can order a few and share at the table. The spicy grilled chermoula shrimp served with hummus is so delectable, you will want to order another round!

The Best

Cafe Ole is one of those places that maintains a consistently high quality of food, friendly atmosphere and is a pleasure to visit, always. We've been going there for over 10 years and can attest to what a great dining experience it is.

Best Brunch!

I love the Saturday and Sunday brunch items. Grilled soujak sausage with eggs and cheese cooked in pita! Great french toast, mimosas and waffles with fresh fruit too. Highly recommended!
