We ate lunch at The Black Olive today and had such a wonderful experience. Chef Alfredo made some delicious food and we enjoyed every bite! The Gluten Free cheese cauliflower crust appetizer was so delicious and then we tried 3 different salads (house, Caesar and berry bliss), all tasted scrumptious! The lemon piccata chicken dish served over zucchini noodles was wonderful and I definitely would order it again! For dessert, we had tiramisu and a gluten free carrot cake and they both were so amazing!!! Both of these desserts are made in house and I would highly recommend both, especially the carrot cake! George, our server, did an incredible job! if you are looking for good food, go to The Black Olive in downtown Johnson City! You will be glad you went! We loved the food so good, my friends and I are planning to host our high school reunion there in November!

This is by far the best breakfast restaurant in the Tri-Cities region. As you can see from my photos, the food is consistently prepared and presented. We go there frequently. The establishment is owned by three local sisters 👩‍👧‍👧, and at least one is on location at all times. Atmosphere is that of a popular restaurant in a small town. You can expect to wait to be seated, but we always think it's worth it. Longest I've waited is 40 minutes, but that is at peak time on a Saturday. Typical time is about 15-20 🕒 minutes for a party of 4. Coffee ☕ is hot and served in large mugs. It's good, and they have sugar, sweeteners, and flavored cream and half-&-half on the table. Ice water 💧 is always 🧊cold. Recommendations: omelets are my favorite choice, I can't resist the Fajita Chicken Omelet, another great choice is the Spinach Omelet. Upgrade the toast to a single pancake 🥞, and if you're looking for a real treat, go for the pumpkin pancake 🥞 (see video below). They have gluten-free pancakes available, too. 100% Maple syrup is available for an extra charge if you're 🍁 a maple syrup kind of person. Standard syrup comes with all pancakes served. The Big Breakfast or Old Timer's breakfast are your classic style country cooking. 🍳🥓 Parking 🅿️ can be an issue, I usually park down the street toward the downtown area and walk up. Building is wheelchair ♿ & stroller 🤱 accessible. Thanks for reading this, and enjoy Jonesborough. ❤️
