659795 Thu Oct 15 17:29:12 -0700 2009 8 19 Outer Boroughs 0 5106725 Just tried to call for takeout and was routed to the north slope spot off of Lincoln, who told me that the 15th St. location closed a couple of days ago, possibly for good. Anyone know what the deal is? Is this the rumored spot for Thistle Hill Tavern from the 'inoteca guys (http://ny.eater.com/archives/2009/09/the_plywood_report_32.php)? Olive Vine is one of my staples for decent, not-terrible-for-you takeout (and BYOB eat-in), it would be a giant bummer to lose it.

(718) 797-1110 You could give them a call and ask. If the Slope location closed, maybe they'll even deliver over to you. Fri Oct 16 13:26:38 -0700 2009 5106725 16011 oolah 2 5109355 Is it worth it ?

Fri Oct 16 20:19:58 -0700 2009 5109355 16011 oolah 4 5110576 I meant is the food good enough to warrant a search for their other locations and/or have them deliver to a customer who does not live very close to them ?

It's purely a neighborhood spot, but it was a good one, certainly the best (if probably the only) Turkish with ready access to South Slope. If I want great middle eastern I'll drive down to Tanoreen, but I felt lucky to have such a good fallback within a couple blocks. Sat Oct 17 16:42:10 -0700 2009 5110576 25168 cjd260 5 5111395 I would think calling one place is as easy as calling another. Same task, same result. Anyway, Olive Vine is decent, but not spectacular food. Solid neighborhood takeout.

I am sad to lose a BYOB place (last in the hood?) but glad something else is going in right away. Wed Nov 11 15:36:50 -0800 2009 5106725 1122808 LolaP
