    Server was Joe! He was fantastic and always knew when to check on us, not too much or too little! We had a fabulous time and can’t wait to return to try so many more menu items 😍 everything delicious and specially plated and presented carefully. The attention to detail is unmatched! You must go to Olivia’s!

    This was my second time at Olivia’s & it didn’t disappoint! Took my son for his birthday ( he’s a foodie too) & he was equally impressed! Our wait staff was great- he informed us if a white wine special (an Albariño ) that was delicious. I had one of the daily specials ( paella) & it was spot on accurate from a flavor standpoint, with delicious shellfish. My husband had the Waygu burger ( he saw it the previous visit & had been thinking about it since then) & again, was all he thought it would be! The lobster Mac & cheese is so decadent!! Wished we had more time to enjoy dessert, but we’ll have to plan our timing better next time! Phenomenal!!!

    Waiter was very attentive and personable, tending to our every need, and he made the evening very enjoyable. The new owners retained the charming atmosphere of the prior iteration and it is a very cozy interior. The wine selection, and the waiters knowledge of the wines, was notable. The food was interesting and delicious, albiet very rich food. Overall pleasant experience

    Spouse and I had a wonderful night. Our server, Monique was absolutely delightful and knowledgeable. We had the house made focaccia with burrata to start. Spouse had the Lomo and I had the tuna tartare. We also shared the soft shelled crab app. Everything was perfect and so delicious. Cocktails, specifically the PTO were incredible. The dining room felt warm and inviting. We can’t wait to return.

    The food was excellent. We started with fresh focaccia bread and the burrata topped with pistachios and olive oil so good.I got the blackened salmon with mango salsa, my husband got a sirloin steak that was a special and it was very good. We ended with a dessert on special it was a pistachio bread pudding made from croissants topped with ice cream, I can’t even say how good it was, we are still talking about it. If you are looking for great food and service with a nice atmosphere, this is your place! We will definitely go back and it probably will become one of our favorite places to frequent!! If your thinking about going, go you won’t regret it!!
