Oliver
Your Reward For Working Out
Attached to The Sports Club LA this spa-like café serves up health conscious food and drink during their Happy Hour. So go ahead, enjoy, indulge, and feel a little less guilty about it. Oliver must have spent some time in Miami, bringing back a piece of South Beach, to give this café it’s fresh and clean décor.
How do you say “Caprioska”? We still don’t know, but we LOVE it! It was strength, sweet and sour muddled in one glass. Mirroring Oliver’s vibe this crisp, clean and refreshing drink is a must try. You wanna get a little down and dirty? Order the “Dirty, Dirty”- a strong martini garnished with blue cheese stuffed olives…yummy mummy.
If you’re going for the bruschetta, stay away from the Brie Avocado and dive into the original Tomato and Garlic instead…it’s much better. If you’ve worked up an appetite be sure to order the Three Cheese Grilled Panini - it was the best deal on the menu and was excellent. Other food items we enjoyed were the Quiche Lorraine and the Tuna Tartar - go with a group so you can taste them all. Although healthy, the Chicken Satay was a little dry and could have used a more flavorful dipping sauce. Oliver has one of the healthiest Happy Hour menus in town. We left here feeling refreshed, happy, full and guilt free.
- Happy Hour Queens: The Peanut Butter Cup Martini is not on the Happy Hour, but DO NOT leave Oliver without trying one…it’s worth every penny.
- Dr. Drinks: The benches are like first class airline seats, be selfish and say “Don’t worry, I’ll take the bench."
