EVOO Mediterranean Cuisine & Cafe

EVOO Mediterranean Cuisine & Cafe is a restaurant in Old Bridge, NJ. The business serves Mediterranean cuisine and cafe fare to the local community.

The name of the establishment references extra virgin olive oil, or EVOO, which is defined as the highest quality olive oil available due to strict production standards. This type of oil is the least processed of all vegetable oils, as no chemicals or heat are used during production, a method that preserves antioxidants and nutrients. The extraction process involves harvesting fresh olives, pouring them into metal crushers, and transferring the mixture to a centrifuge to separate the oil from the paste before bottling. According to International Olive Council standards, extra-virgin olive oil must have a free fatty acid limit of 0.8 grams per 100 grams and a maximum peroxide value of 20, with the best oils having a value of 12 or less to ensure the oil has not been damaged by high temperatures.

The location sits on US-9, about a tenth of a mile from US Highway 9. It is located about half a mile from the Pointe de Jardin neighborhood and less than a mile from the Millponds neighborhood. Marlboro Road and Texas Road are both about a mile away, as is State Route 18.

The business holds a rating of 4.60, which reflects a positive rating from the customers who have reviewed it.
