- MMarielGreater Boston •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoIt’s beautiful in there, it was my second time dining at olives & oil. This time we went on a friday after Christmas, the decoration, staff, food was amazing. Whether you’re there for a couple of drinks at the bar or seating in there dining section you’ll have a wonderful experience. They pay good attention to allergies and have gluten free options.More infoOlives and OilPrice: Expensive• Contemporary Italian• New Haven•4.3
- KKathrynGreater Boston •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoMade a same-day reservation for 7 on a weeknight. We were looking for an Italian restaurant that did not have stereotypical Italian fare, and this delivered. The restaurant was lovely and we were seated in an area that was not crowded; the ambiance was really nice. Service was attentive, the cocktail selection was great (including some really interesting mocktails); the small plates were excellent, and the main courses were good to excellent. We didn't feel rushed, and the whole experience was genuinely enjoyable. This restaurant is pricier than where we would usually go, but it was a memorable dining experience.More infoSiena New HavenPrice: Expensive• Italian• New Haven•4.7
