Our server immediately asked us if we were familiar with the menu and then asked to take an order for drinks while we looked at the menu. She was very professional, kind and timely with all that was requested from her. The food was magnificent. All made to order. Not over or undercooked. I recommend Cava Mezze Olney to guests of all ages. A great experience and will definitely be back for more delicious food and wine!!

Server Nick was good and attentive. The decaf coffee was not hot but we didn't complain/didn't want to wait for a fresh pot. The space isn't very big for the amount of people in it and acoustics aren't great.

All the food was delicious, the waiter was very attentive and pleasant. There was one thing I particularly liked about this restaurant, the staff obviously enjoys working there. I commented on that to our server and he said yes, and he said that started at the top that the management was very good.
