    We had the date night special and it was great. We both had the shrimp appetizer that was very generous, a filet and sea bass done to perfection, asparagus and beans (so much to share!) Apple pie for desert (to go since we were so full!) And a bottle of wine! The service was outstanding! Thank you for a very enjoyable evening. We will definitely return…

    We went to breakfast there today and we had one meal that wasn’t cooked the best and the server and the manager were fantastic about it. They turned a not so great experience into an unforgettable experience. They were just fabulous and it just goes to show you what kind of place Olive and Ivy is, Top Notch! I wish I remember the name of the server and the manager. We will definitely be back!!

    I recently visited The Ends, and I was not disappointed! The experience was wonderful, with a romantic ambiance that sets the perfect mood for a night out. The drinks? Absolutely phenomenal—creative, balanced, and downright memorable. However, let’s talk about the fries. Our waitress enthusiastically recommended them, so we gave them a shot, but… don’t. They’re your standard frozen fries served with ketchup—nothing special. Honestly, we weren’t even considering them until her pitch swayed us. Lesson learned. All in all, The Ends is a fantastic spot. Just steer clear of the fries, and you’ll be in for a great time!
