Park Slope’s much-loved Mediterranean and
pizza shop Olive Vine Café has opened a second location in Carroll
Gardens, further establishing the nabe’s Park Slope-lite reputation.
“We like trendy hoods and this is one of the trendiest in Brooklyn,”
says the branch’s owner, Johan Daoud. The Court Street storefront will
offer the same lamb sandwiches and olive-oil-dusted pies as the
original, but expands with a variety of kebabs and chicken ouzi—a
savory blend of rice, raisins, almonds, carrots, peas and chicken,
stuffed into a gigantic philo dough and “cooked to perfection,” as the
menu boasts. But the million-dinar question: Will the café, which
boasts 18 backyard tables and a wallet-friendly BYOB policy (Scotto’s
liquors is next door), give Smith Street Med favorite Zaytoons a run
for its money? “Business is business,” chuckles Daoud with maybe a hint
of confidence.

The food is amazing here. We had takeout a few times since it opened and finally ate there on Mother's Day. The decor alone is beautiful makes you...
