We had a blast with the Family combo for 2. Highly recommend it so that you can try multiple flavors at once. They go well together in one bite as well

Yesterday was my first time going to Dates and Olives in Natick Center, and I can say I was truly blown away by the food and service. First and foremost you are greeted kindly when you come into the restaurant and the smell of delicious flavors comes over you. The ordering process is very simple, and everything is made fresh on the spot. I got the Chicken Shawarma with spicy hummus and I was IN LOVE. I inhaled the entire entree, the spicy hummus was the perfect amount of spice, the chicken was cooked and spiced to perfection and the veggies were fresh and bright. In addition, I had mentioned how much I liked the tabbouleh salad that my friend was having and a worker at the restaurant overhead me and brought me a little over for myself which was so kind. You can tell the people who work and own this location genuinely care about the customers. Most people who came in already knew the staff, and the staff knew them, their names, and often their orders! I have been dying to find an excellent, fresh and delicious Mediterranean restaurant in the Metrowest area FOREVER, but now that I have found Dates & Olives I can say I will absolutely be a repeat customer.. FOR LIFE!

Simply disappointed. Beef was tough and chewy. Adena kabab were completely off. Wings were OK. Fries were fine. Tried it once and don’t have a reason to go back.

Food is off; it is neither Mediterranean nor Middle Eastern. The restaurant is run by an Indian family. People are fine but food is off. Also, portions are smaller than priced or advertised.

We stopped in with our special needs daughter who uses a wheelchair. We were treated wonderfully! Menus were brought to our oversized table and our food was delivered to us in three courses.
The staff quickly recognized our situation and did everything possible to help us.
The food was made with the freshest ingredients and was absolutely delicious! Special thanks to Sam!

Stopped in here and had some delicious food - baba ghanoush with pita bread, chicken and rice plate with hummus and pickled cabbage, and a lamb sandwich. Everything was amazing! Our 8 month old really loved everything too!

Wow. I literally just had this for the first time and I am amazed - SO good. It reminds me of a better version of CAVA and I am so happy this is my new go to place and what an insanely reasonable price. Can’t wait to try everything on the menu (order directly through the restaurant so they don’t get charged 20-30%!!!)
The Food is very delicious and Fresh. The tastiest Kebob I’ve had recently. The service and ambience is great as well.
My order(rice/sauce 🤷🏻♂️) was a bit Limey and I felt the price to portion was high but otherwise the kebob, hummus, falafel, salad were perfect.
