    Great looking place with good ambiance. Food ok .except Fillet steak requested ‘rare ‘ served ‘well done.’ Replacement was inedible due to quality of beef. Gave up on the steak. Ordered mussels as starter. No bowl for shells and no finger bowl. Had to request Parmesan for ragu.as had not been offered. Had to request Salt and Pepper as not on table. Young staff need help and more support. Will not revisit

    Amazing food, everything was full of flavour. Staff very attentive and we didn’t have to wait long for food or drinks. A very relaxing environment and they even put a little birthday message on my partners pudding. I will 100% go back when I’m in the area again

    A pretty good variety of choice across the menu, not the cheapest but still pretty reasonable given the quality of the food. Service was great, lots of staff, good communication and attention. Nice location with views great views( we asked for a window table when booking). Overall a very pleasant evening, would definitely recommend.

    Had a three course meal with drinks at Oliveto on Friday night. Food was delicious and came out quickly, but allowed us a suitable break in between courses. Service was very good, staff were friendly and obliging. We asked for a table by the window, which we were given, so the views were spectacular. We love eating in Oliveto and have never been disappointed yet; it shall remain a favourite for special meals out.
