The Olive - Prince Rupert

We had supper here tonight and the meal, service and prices were excellent. Portion were full meal sized and we didn’t have to wait for anything. I had the stroganoff and it was delicious! Next trip to Prince Rupert, we will be eating here for sure.

We were happy to pay a bit more due to pandemic but they removed all the good curries and JACKED the prices. Boring butter chicken went from $18.50 (which is already pricey) to $23.50!! If you order on Spyce, the food delivery app, it's $27 . TWENTY SEVEN DOLLARS. uhm....Do a quick google of indian takeaway in Manhatten. The same dish is $19. Vancouver $17. Insane. This was our favourite restaurant. We're not made of money. Just crazy.

We went here on a whim, and were pleasantly surprised. Turns out we should have made a reservation, in order to get a window table. We ordered drinks, and they took a reminder to arrive, DH had Eggs Benny, which he said were good. I ordered Butter Chicken with a side of pickled veg, as the dish came with just rice and naan. I don't eat bread so DH ate it and said it was excellent. Now to my dish best Butter Chicken I have ever tasted. Sublime. We made friends with the head server, and our new to Canada server from India. A delightful experience.

We chose this restaurant because it was convenient to our hotel. Glad we did. I had lamb curry and my wife had shrimp and Caesar salad, which we enjoyed with local draught beer. Service was good and the price was reasonable. Enjoy.

Ever since The Olive paired it back to basics and focused more on the chicken, they've been on fire! It's always juicy, fresh and flavourful. Definitely better than what you get at KFC!
