Olivia, Tastes from the Mediterranean
Israeli couple, Lior and Yaron Zelzer, have introduced their culture and traditional flavors to the enchanting island of Isla Mujeres in a wonderful fusion of Moroccan, Greek, Bulgarian and Turkish influenced cuisine. Olivia is a mélange of cultural recipes inherited from the couple’s parents and grandparents. After living in Isla Mujeres for four years and missing the variety of flavors and home-cooked meals they grew up with in Israel, Lior and Yaron decided to recreate the recipes they inherited which was not a simple task, to say the least.
The result is Olivia, a refreshingly diverse restaurant with a loyal following of both local residents and visitors to Isla Mujeres. Olivia opened in November 2007. Everything served at Olivia is homemade “from scratch” daily. From the delicious selections of freshly baked breads to the unique spices and seasonings used to flavor the freshest produce. At Olivia, Lior and Yaron pay homage to the Mediterranean cuisine they grew up with.
