Welcome to Olive Terrace Bar & Grill, a delightful Mediterranean restaurant that transports you straight to the sun-kissed shores of the Mediterranean without ever leaving Santa Clarita. Nestled at 28261 Newhall Ranch Rd, this gem is not just a dining spot, but a culinary experience grounded in a rich tapestry of flavors and hospitality.

As you step inside, you're welcomed by an enchanting atmosphere that radiates warmth and charm. The gentle sway of grapevines overhead, combined with elegant decor and an inviting patio that offers stunning views, sets the perfect backdrop for a casual brunch or an intimate dinner. It's no wonder customers rave about the restaurant’s aesthetic appeal—many have compared it to dining in a beautiful courtyard villa.

The menu at Olive Terrace is a vibrant showcase of Mediterranean and Persian cuisines, featuring a diverse array of dishes that cater to every palate. For lunch, indulge in the Olive Terrace Lunch Trio, which comes with a choice of half of their gourmet sandwiches, paired with a fresh Caesar or garden salad, and a steaming bowl of tomato basil bisque—or opt for the Grilled Reuben, loaded with tender corned beef, sauerkraut, and a melty Swiss cheese. Not in the mood for a sandwich? Try the Blackened Chicken Filet, seasoned with mild Cajun spices, topped with fresh veggies and a zesty basil mayo—each bite bursts with flavor.

When it comes to dinner, the choices are just as delectable. Experience the rich, comforting depths of their Lasagna, where layers of tender pasta intertwine with a savory mix of ground sirloin, herbs, and marinara sauce. Another crowd favorite is the Baked Chicken Lasagna Alfredo, a creamy indulgence with every delectable layer filled with ricotta, spinach, and parmesan. And don't miss the Ultimate Baked Italian Sausage Pappardelle for a taste that dances on the palate!

The restaurant's sliders and pizzettes also deserve mention, such as the Barcelona Sliders on brioche, featuring a fusion of chorizo and ground beef, or the delightful Falafel Sliders, perfect for a vegetarian option packed with flavor and served with a refreshing cucumber mint yogurt.

Customer experiences resonate with the pride Olive Terrace takes in its offerings.

Just passing through and picked this place more or less at random from maps. The huge menu variety makes you think there is no way they can do that many dinner plates well…. I couldn’t find one nitpicking thing to complain about. Better service, cocktails, dishes and desserts than I ever would have guessed - and I live in a top food destination. I pass through here fairly often with a north/south Cal connection, so will definitely come again.

Olive Terrace Bar & Grill is a gem that feels like an escape to the Mediterranean without ever leaving town. The atmosphere is enchanting—seating beneath the graceful drape of grapevines creates the sense of dining in a secluded villa courtyard. We had stopped at a winery earlier in the day, yet the charm of this setting was tenfold more captivating. A gentle evening breeze added just the right touch of coolness, enhancing the romance of the night. The food was as memorable as the setting. The charcuterie platter was beautifully arranged and a delight to share, while the Mediterranean chicken kabob platter was perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. Live music carried softly through the air, adding a layer of intimacy that turned dinner into an experience. Service was warm and attentive, and even the practical details impressed—parking was easy to find, which made the evening feel seamless from start to finish. Olive Terrace is more than just a place to dine; it’s a destination for creating moments you’ll want to relive again and again. I know I’ll certainly be back.

Had our Valentine's Day dinner here. Everything was superb. Loved the elegant ambience and the live music added an additional touch of romance....Love was in the air. The service was excellent and the food heavenly. They had a special 3 course menu that night. Wide selection, good size portions and great prices. Five stars all around. Very exquiste cuisine. Will definitely be returning. Our compliments to the chef.

I made a reservation for our party of 13. First they had us down for the right time and number of guests but on the wrong day. They called and I corrected them. When we arrived, there was plenty of parking and the restaurant is beautiful. We were ushered to the patio area I had requested, but they split our soup up into two tables (9 and 4), because of the space constraints on the patio. The server came and took our drink orders. I requested separate checks, which they understandably could not accommodate, so we split our check into 4 for easier computation. The rest of our experience begins to go downhill. It was a long time before they brought the bread and took our order and then a very, very long time before we received our meals, which were both beautiful and delicious. Many of us wanted dessert and coffee, but due to the delays in getting our dinner, our time had run out. So the restaurant missed out of additional revenue. Absolutely a great experience overall and would come back again but would budget much more time to accommodate the slow service.

Saturday evening walk in table for two - what a pleasant surprise to discover that this restaurant has not just Italian, but also REALLY GOOD Persian food too. Food was excellent, service was great, would definitely come again.

Great location with some fantastic food! Nice attention to detail, but be aware when they are busy the service, especially near the end of the meal might get slow. I would have easily ordered one more drink, but the waiter was missing for 20m or so, and we just decided to pay and leave. However, the food was worth the trip and I would easily go again.
