The RiverBend Growth Association, the chamber of commerce and economic development organization for the Riverbend community hosted a ribbon cutting for the renovations done at Olga’s Kitchen in Alton Square Mall.

The Olga’s Kitchen odyssey began in the mid-1960’s, when founder, Olga Loizon returned to the Mediterranean to visit her family. She came back to Michigan to open her own business a few years later. In 1980 the restaurant opened its doors in Alton, Illinois. Since then Olga’s Kitchen has been a staple in the Riverbend area. The renovation of Olga’s Kitchen has been credited to the strong community support of the business. The ribbon cutting ceremony was held to celebrate the revitalization of Olga’s Kitchen, which represents a significant investment in the Riverbend community and offers a refreshed look.
Olga’s Kitchen has more to offer than great tasting, fresh food. These renovations have expanded seating for guests creating a warm and welcoming space where the community can gather and enjoy both lunch and dinner. The company’s philosophy is about crafting palatable memories by sharing old world recipes from the Mediterranean. Using local and regional ingredients and wrapped in what some call the best bread on the planet, Olga’s Kitchen has transformed the ordinary into a savory dining experience, built on the heritage of its founder.
