   Founded in 1997 by Russell Autry (Rusty to his friends and customers) The Olive Branch Café is THE gourmet pizza restaurant in Marrero and now Algiers. Although he is young, Rusty has plenty of restaurant experience and it shows. He knows the key to any restaurateur’s success is being hands-on. He is always at one of his stores making sure the customers are satisfied. He keeps his employees on their toes and they work hard to keep his business running smoothly day after day.

    First from its storefront location on the Expressway and now from 1995 Barataria Blvd in Oakridge Plaza, The Olive Branch Café has been serving the “Bestbank” for over seven years. Our newest location is at 5163 Gen De Gaulle Dr. in Algiers across from Holy Cross College.

    At The Olive Branch Café, we use only the highest quality cheeses, and the freshest ingredients possible.  We bring in the finest Spanish Olives and Italian olive oil because our customers deserve the best. Vine ripened Roma Tomatoes, Romaine lettuce, fresh mushrooms, green peppers, red onions and garlic are brought in daily to ensure that your pizza, salad, sub, or pasta is perfect every time.  Our pizza dough is prepared in house every day and no pizza is prepared until you order it. All of our food is made to order, so we can make everything just the way you like it. There are four kinds of cheese in our homemade lasagna and our signature Caesar Salad dressing is prepared almost daily from scratch.  Do you want to know why our chicken is always so tasty?  We marinate it for hours in a creamy Italian dressing with a special blend of herbs and spices.
