Our Story
From our kitchen to your table—this is how Chopped Olive came to life
How It All Began
There’s an old story I love: once upon a time, an olive asked a chickpea to take her hand. When she said yes, he celebrated with a feast that never ended. That story became the spirit behind Chopped Olive Modern Mediterranean.
Opened this restaurant in the West Market Square Shopping Center at 47454 Grand River Ave in Novi, MI, I wanted to bring something fresh and honest to the table. Not just food—but a celebration of real cooking, rooted in tradition and made for modern life.
The Heart of Middle Eastern Flavor
We didn’t want to change what works—we just wanted to make it feel current. So while the food stays true to its roots, the experience is modern. Clean lines, good music, and warm service come together to make something special.
Why It Matters
Every meal at Chopped Olive is made to fit you. Whether you're here for a quick lunch or a big family dinner, you can choose your proteins, toppings, and sauces. You’re not just ordering—you’re building your own feast.
Food tells a story. It connects people, cultures, and generations. By sharing these recipes, we’re keeping that story alive and inviting others to be part of it—one plate at a time.
