Love this place! great salads and the big slices of pizza are to die for! Can't wait to go back! Nice place that you can grab just a slice of pizza to go and you only need one!

We were very pleased with Fat Olive on Wed. May 8th. The Italian Pizza was excellent. Would definitely order that one again. The Roman tasted a little bland. Very extensive menu. Was a little pricey, though, especially for specialty pizzas and other non-pizza items on the menu. They were very willing to split the bill any way we wanted (which... More

We always stop here each year when we come to Homer. This year is a disappointment. Yes they're still understaffed, but the floor crew of a hostess, busser, and waitress did well. The busser stated my husband was a human garbage disposal. Word to restaurant owners, someone else might take offense to a comment like that. The prices do not... More

This is a favorite amongst tourists; the Nonni salad is pretty good I admit. But I've always found it to be overpriced mediocre food with a very hectic loud environment.

A neat place to hang out and the service was really good. Unfortunately my dish was a fish pasta with the fish really overcooked. Husband had a pork dish that was good though not great. For the price I was really bummed. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing though it was a special and reccomended by the server.

After a long day with a lot of chill and wind, we were ready for a healthy, substantive meal. Pizza and pasta were on our minds and Fat Olives delivered. I had a mildly spiced pasta dish that was very cheesy and my son loved the pizza so much, he ate the whole thing. We slept warm from the inside... More

This is the place we go to every time, all the time when we are in Homer. Expect a wait, especially at dinner time. It is worth it. Every time, all the time. Everything is good. You won't be disappointed.

Never go to a restaurant when they are changing shifts from lunch to dinner service. I had heard what a great place this was to eat and was very disappointed. We arrived at 4:30pm and the staff did not explain the menu, but gave us the dinner menu that we could not order from. They were an over rated pizza... More

great atmosphere, food, wine and beer. The pizza was excellent! I think it's the best place of its kind in Homer. I return every trip.

A must stop for stone fired pizza. I love the pizza, the people, and the atmosphere. They are always willing to help a tourist with questions on the local area.
