Olives Grill&Dessert

Visited for the first time today, the food was prepared by the kurdish lady and it tasted really good!! Other staff members were also very polite and welcoming.
Furthermore, the place is very clean and well looked after. Highly recommended!!

The grill items here is 10/10. Service is exceptional with complementary lentil and okra soup. Orpa was a great host, took time to explain the menu and provided us with great suggestions. Loved the service. Will visit again next time I’m in the UK.

Olive Dessert is a real gem in Rusholme! 🍨 The shop has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with friendly staff who are always happy to help you choose. Their desserts are fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious — from creamy ice creams to rich cakes and unique treats, there’s something for everyone. The portions are generous and great value for money. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy a sweet treat with friends or family. Definitely one of the best dessert places in Manchester!

Lovely restaurant. Family run, great service, great portion sizes and really really affordable. I’ll be returning and recommending my friends to come here too.

A True Taste of Kurdish Hospitality

I recently visited Kurdish Olives Grill & Dessert, and I was thoroughly impressed. From start to finish, it was a delightful experience.

The grilled chicken and lamb were standout dishes. Each bite was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned — you can tell the meat is fresh and carefully marinated. The mixed grill was a great way to sample a variety of flavours. The sides (like salads, lentil soup, and freshly baked bread) complemented the mains beautifully, adding freshness and balance to the richness of the meats.

Then came dessert — and wow. The baklava (and the other sweet treats) were flaky, sweet without being cloying, and absolutely divine. It was a perfect way to end the meal.

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The staff were friendly, attentive, and you can sense that this is a small place with pride in what they do. The interior is clean, cozy, and relaxed — great for casual dinners or catching up with friends or family.

All in all, Kurdish Olives Grill & Dessert is a gem in Manchester for lovers of authentic Middle Eastern cuisine. I’ll definitely be going back to try more of their menu. Highly recommended!
