The Olive Branch
Just had a fantastic lunch here! They are running an unlimited soup and salad special in June for $7.95 and everything I tried was fantastic.

French Onion Soup- Rich and full bodied, but not overly salty which is often the case with French Onion. Good balance of onions to broth to bread to melted cheese--everything tasted great.

Caesar Salad- Wow! I'm glad I changed my mind at the last minute and opted for the Caesar over the Garden salad. This is a great salad. The housemade Caesar vinaigrette is tangy, garlicky, vinegary and rich all at the same time. Since it's a vinaigrette it wasn't overly heavy (very nice). It was so good I soaked the leftover dressing up with my bread.

Cream of Potato Soup- Yum! Again, well seasoned and hearty. I did add a little salt to bring out the flavors better. Still, it was very good.

I'm also a fan of Olive Branch's Tomato Basil soup, breakfast options and cake pops. It's an all around good choice for lunch or brunch whether you have a small or large group. The atmosphere is nice and it isn't overly loud (though the room is large).

The owner Leah is very friendly and in my opinion a small business genius.

This is a great place to meet for an affordable lunch with colleagues. The atmosphere is fun, the food is great and the service is alright.

I love, love the Pho and always order it with tofu.

Oddly, enough they also sell house-made baklava that's to die for. Look for it up by the cash register.
