Olive Branch Cafe & Restaurant

My partner and I had a beautiful dinner here last weekend. We got the “dinner for two” and loved everything. The food was delicious, we chose the spinach and feta pies and the chicken and beef kebabs. Dessert and Turkish coffee was the best. Our server and the restaurant were very nice. Thanks!

Excellent food and wonderful people. I would recommend them 100%.

Peaceful restaurant with freshly made food served quickly. I split the pie sampler with my girlfriend. She had the shwarma and I had the shish kabob. All for just under $25!

My friend and I popped in for some grape leaves and baklava. The atmosphere is really cozy and the owners make you feel at home. All of the desserts looked amazing, but the baklava was so delicious, it was some of the best I've ever had. I can't wait to come back for a meal!

My family came here to eat after days of fun in the water park! The food here was delicious and filling. There was food enough to impress vegans and meat eaters alike. The service was charming and excellent. The atmosphere is inviting and the music sounded like their hometown. We enjoyed the whole experience.

Delicious homemade Mediterranean food!!! The owners are delightful, and I can’t believe I’ve missed this hidden gem very time I’ve searched for Mediterranean food in the valley! Small quaint place. A little warm on a hot summer day, but worth the enjoyment of it!
We all had lamb dishes… Mine was a salad, topped with lamb kebab, which included roasted vegetables. My dining mates, had a lamb burger & Lamb, Shawarma wrap. They finished with apricot cream, pie and baklava and coffee. All supper yummy!!!

Nice storefront restaurant serving Middle Eastern food. I found it through Google, stopped in for lunch, and had a delicious salad with lamb kebab and Arabic coffee. Certainly recommend for a low-key, hospitable, and delicious meal experience.

Such a great first experience at The Olive Branch! Wonderful service, very kind staff, and warm/ welcoming atmosphere! I had the cheese pie and it was DELICIOUS!

The olive ranch café is true, authentic Lebanese food. You will enjoy everything you try. I had the kibbee appetizer, the labna with olives, the tabouli, and the babaganoush. It was wonderful!

Owner is very kind and welcoming. Food is delicious and well seasoned. Coffee is great too

This quaint restaurant has the perfect at home cooking feeling. The dishes are flavorful and delicious! The owners are so kind and I was 100% satisfied with every dish I got. Whenever I am back in this area, I'll be visiting again.

All entrees prepared fresh in the very cozy, intimate restaurant in South Bethlehem. Delicious 😋

This is a hidden gem of south Bethlehem! Delicious, authentic Middle Eastern cuisine in a cozy atmosphere. Definitely worth visiting on a regular basis!

The owner is really great person, talking and joking with costumers. The food overall is good not great, but the atmosphere is what makes this place special. Also, desserts are really nice, especially baklava, you should try it

Great little spot with authentic food. I regularly go and always enjoy the food and service.

Worlds best food, service, and atmosphere. We came in too early (not realizing they were still closed) yet the owner served us without mentioning a thing. We felt like we were being served a homemade dinner. Highly recommend the grape leaves, Kibbeh, and vegetarian platter.

Authentic quaint small place in Bethlehem! Stumbled upon this gem after living here for almost 3 years! Delicious middle eastern food served by one of the owners. He said he is the Chef and but the main Chef is his wife 🥰 She cooks and he serves. We had the baba ganoush as an appetizer, side salads before dinner meal, which was the chicken skewers with rice and vegetable skewers with hummus. Don’t suggest you be in a hurry to eat and run as service is not quick, though the food is worth the wait. Will definitely be going back!

The food is delicious. The service is personal and heartfelt. Atmosphere is casual and relaxing.

If you like Mediterranean food, you will want to come back again and again.

I highly recommend this place.

We were delighted to find this gem of a Middle Eastern restaurant so close to the Lehigh campus. We enjoyed excellent authentic appetizers and entrees that we all shared and enjoyed! Atmosphere was cozy and inviting, service was great, and the owner’s family offered us their table as we didn’t have a reservation on a Saturday night. We left feeling like we had enjoyed a meal prepared by one of my Syrian aunties! We look forward to future visits!

My family and I got take-out there last night for the first time, and we were very pleased with the food. The meat pie was amazing, as were the feta and spinach pies as well. The kebabs were excellent (the kibbeh was the best!) and all of the sides were flavorful and excellent. I have never been a fan of tahini sauce until I ate it at this restaurant. And the tabbouli was outstanding and the way it should be, without all of the cous cous or bulgar added in. Lots of fresh herbs in an excellent sauce. But the star of the show was the baklava; hands down this was the BEST baklava I have ever eaten! Wow, I am salivating just thinking about it.
Keep up the good work Olive Branch. We will be returning.
