Our recent takeout experience from 3 Olives Mediterranean Restaurant in Poughkeepsie was absolutely fantastic, and we can't recommend it enough! From the moment we placed our order to the delicious last bite, everything was exceptional.

Read moreWhen I go out to eat, I want food that I can't or choose not to cook at home. I also like to try new flavors in a muted atmosphere where I feel at home. Yes, and price is important. 3 Olives Mediterranean Grill & Lounge met my expectations. I chose the Lamb Kabobs for my first dinning experience with them. They cooked the lamb perfectly. The seasonings were warm and rich without overpowering the protein they were on. The vegetables were worth the trip in themselves. I felt myself craving a bit larger of a portion! The Tahini sauce added to the experience of both the lamb and the rice. At $22.99 I feel the price is on point in today's market where I would be paying just a little less for a salad elsewhere. I enjoyed the quiet music, and the Egyptian motif made the experience exotic. I enjoyed the muted atmosphere, but really wanted to go out and pull people in to experience what I enjoyed so much. If you are in the area, stop in. The serving staff are wonderful to engage with, and we felt right at home in the Middle East. Be prepared for a level up taste experience that is...
Read moreOn several occasions, I have passed by this establishment, but this time, we decided to stop and dine. We were pleasantly surprised by the owner’s hospitality and kindness. The atmosphere was inviting, adorned with an abundance of Egyptian decorations. For appetizers, we ordered Grape Leaves and Tandoori Wings. The leaves were distinct from the Greek cuisine we are accustomed to, yet they were delightful in their own way. The leaves possessed a pleasant crunch, and the filling was incomprehensible. You must experience it for yourself. The Tandoori Wings, while possessing a great grilled flavor, lacked the same awe-inspiring effect. Although perfectly cooked, they simply tasted like ordinary wings. For entrees, we opted for the Mixed Shawarma Platter and the 3 Olives Signature. The platter was satisfactory; some chicken pieces were slightly overcooked, but overall, it was very good. The signature was, as expected, exceptional. All three meats were succulent and flavorful.
