brunch bliss

any of you guys ever been to olea in fort green?

tasty.....

nope never heard of it... where is it? fixed price? what did you get?

Olea info

i had the french omelete
brie cheese salmon and leeks
came with potatoes salad and a fancy baguete for like $8.50

really nice place highly recomended and its just a 15 min walk from PH
or 5 min on the bus that runs on vanderbuilt ( the B67?)

nice cool mix of people and not too many babys.

that sounds like the best part

slightly overpriced tapas list, i thought.
great atmosphere though and friendly host.

Really good wine.

I went there once and the wait was a half hour so I walked a half-block to Red Bamboo for Sangria happy hour.. Went back to Olea, spent $40 and really wasn't as satisfied as I would have been spending $20 at Red Bamboo.

I wish I lived in Fort Greene tho, so much selection

i went there for dinner once and it was okay.

but ive been there 3 times for brunch and its always been top notch and reasonably priced. its also got a really good atmosphere very relaxing and great service.

Last time I was there I had the Italian omelette-- artichoke hearts, eggplant, mozzarella, zucchini-YUM

Take the B69 from 8th ave, or Vanderbilt, and get off before Lafayette.
It's only one block west- on Adelphi (?)

Love their coffee (and the pretty little chocolates that come with the bill)
