The Olive Downtown
About us
A laid-back Italian restaurant in Johnson City serving lunch, dinner, and casual get-togethers, this spot brings people together over simple, well-crafted food. Now owned and operated by Chef Alfredo Bran, a Salvadoran immigrant with over 25 years in the United States, the restaurant reflects his passion for authentic flavors, quality ingredients, and a welcoming dining experience. The kitchen focuses on homemade recipes and locally sourced, organic ingredients whenever possible.
Settle in by the fire or sit outside in the summer, then pair your meal with great cocktails for a relaxed night that feels just right.
