I don't know what's gone on to make Olly so much better than my first visit, but SOMETHING had changed and it's a GOOD change. I just recently moved to live two blocks from here and I thought I would give Olly another try. During the pandemic they have a few outdoor tables, so a few days ago I came by for lunch. My server - much like last time nearly a year ago - was incredibly nice and attentive. I ordered iced tea, started with the fried green tomatoes and then had the mac and cheese with a grilled chicken breast on top. So I have to be honest and say I wouldn't have the FGT again. There was just something not right about them. As someone who grew up in Louisiana, these are just not traditionally prepared and I know they're going for a kind of modern hipster take on most of their food, but they just weren't "right" for my tastes. The mac and cheese however was really great. It *IS* a very, very small portion for the price ($15), so just know that going in. The added chicken breast made it feel more like a real meal. I came in again today and ordered the same entree, but this time I decided to be a weirdo and have the peach cobbler as an appetizer. Again, I really didn't like it, but I'm not saying it's bad. It's just their attempt at a modern take on the dish which for me wans't enjoyable (the fruit really had no flavor); the ice cream on top was actually the best part. The weird thing is the mac and cheese tasted TOTALLY DIFFERENT this time, like literally it was like a different dish entirely, but it was still really really great. And again they made the chicken just how I like it. One thing to note: they are putting an automatic gratiuity of 20% on every check. Now normally I am not a fan of automatic gratuities (they are in fact not enforcible and if you feel genuinely like something went really really WRONG because of your server you have ever right, legally, to demand they take it off of your check.) But during pandemic times 20% is the bare MINIMUM you should be tipping a server. TBH I think 40% is more acceptable. If you can afford to eat out you can afford to reward people who are risking their fucking lives to pamper you. So on both occasions I tipped cash on top of the automatic 20%. As just a last thing that is a point of interest... lanternflies. They are everywhere, but for some reason they plague this corner. No less than ten - that's not an exaggeration - landed *on my body* during my meal today. And one on my actual plate. That's not the restaurant's fault, but you should be prepared to deal with it. All in all Olly's had just so dramatically completely improved their food from when I first visited. Even when the dish isn't something I personally love, it's still clearly high quality food prepared the way they've designed, and you can't fault them for that.
