Plano’s office‑park dining scene gets a fresh addition. Olivita by Café Olivia, the latest venture from the locally‑renowned Café Olivia brand, is set to open its doors on Thursday, Nov. 5, at 2400 Dallas Parkway, Suite 140 in the Willow Bend office community.
Concept and Design
Olivita occupies a 2,335‑square‑foot space that blends coastal‑Mediterranean aesthetics with warm terracotta tones and sage‑green accents. The layout provides seating for 67 guests, creating a comfortable spot for breakfast, lunch or a coffee break. The design reflects Café Olivia’s commitment to a welcoming, modern environment that encourages both quick meals and relaxed conversation.
Menu Highlights
The menu balances familiar favorites with fresh, health‑focused options. Signature items include the Rising Pig breakfast sandwich, Oaxaca Mornings breakfast tacos, the Olivia chicken sandwich, and miso‑glazed salmon. Specialty drinks such as the Pink Cloud, Olivia Latte and Valencia Bloom round out the offering, giving coffee lovers a variety of flavors to choose from.
Seed‑Oil‑Free Cooking
Staying true to Café Olivia’s philosophy, Olivita prepares all dishes without seed oils. Instead, the kitchen relies on olive oil, avocado oil and butter, delivering richer flavor while aligning with growing consumer demand for cleaner cooking fats. Ingredients are sourced from regional producers, including Cedar Ridge Egg Farm and Jersey Girls Dairy, underscoring the café’s support for local agriculture.
Hours and Accessibility
Olivita will operate Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., catering to the typical office schedule. The location’s proximity to major office buildings makes it an ideal spot for employees seeking a wholesome, quick‑service meal without leaving the campus.
Future Expansion Plans
Brand Hospitality, the parent company behind Café Olivia, indicated that Olivita may be the first of several smaller‑format cafés planned for office communities throughout the Dallas‑Fort Worth metroplex. If the Plano launch proves successful, additional locations could follow, further expanding the seed‑oil‑free dining concept across the region.
Community Impact
Beyond offering a new dining option, Olivita contributes to Plano’s growing reputation as a hub for innovative, health‑conscious businesses. The café’s emphasis on locally sourced ingredients supports regional farms and suppliers, while its modern design adds aesthetic value to the Willow Bend office park.
