Service was attentive but not overbearing. Our server, Christian, was helpful and forthright when answering questions about the menu. Exotic Panna Cotta dessert was stellar. 1/2 off wine during the weekday can’t be beat!
The one dud was the Carbonara. It is not authentic assembly. Base sauce is not an egg, cheese, pasta water emulsion; but is some butter sauce for the pasta and a raw egg yolk served on top. Flavors don’t mix well and the sauce was runny. Desperately needed pepper and cheese to make it taste like it had the traditional flavors.
Great experience overall. Skip the Carbonara.

This was my second experience dining at the restaurant. My first experience was not great, only because the service was less than satisfactory. However, the food was still top-notch and delicious.  I was invited back by management to give the restaurant another try and they absolutely made up for the poor service from my first dining experience. It was much improved and I had a wonderful meal. I highly recommend this restaurant. I was even more impressed that they went above and beyond to demonstrate that they listen to their diners. WELL DONE 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

We truly enjoyed our Easter lunch at Olio e Più. The service was outstanding—special thanks to Ximena for her exceptional attention and professionalism. The desserts were a highlight—definitely worth saving room for!

Well, was a fun evening altogether but perhaps near the end as we were leaving is where interaction with bartender left me a bit sour.
Asked whether they could break a $100 for valet service , she mentioned she has all $5s and immediately followed by comment ‘take it or leave it’!!
Even her colleague stared her down.
People should seriously reconsider working in service industry if you have attitude issues.

Olio was easy to find and made a solid first impression the moment we walked in. The space is moody with dim lighting and walls adorned in eclectic decorative art, creating an intimate, artsy vibe. On the right, a small, dainty bar added charm to the setting, and there was no shortage of seating both indoors and out.
From the start, the service was warm and welcoming. The host greeted us promptly, and our waiter, Neil, made us feel right at home. We began our meal with a Caesar salad and bruschetta—both simple but fresh and well-executed.
For drinks, I went with the Farfella Rossa, while my friend had an espresso martini. Both were well-made and balanced, perfect for easing into the evening. Neil recommended the branzino for a lighter option, which my friend chose, while I opted for the seafood pasta, hoping for something heartier to pair with my drink.
The branzino was nicely cooked and flavorful, though on the smaller side. It sat atop a bed of potatoes that added a nice touch. My seafood pasta, unfortunately, missed the mark. The squid ink pasta had an interesting texture, but the dish overall was too salty and lacked the creamy, saucy richness I was hoping for. It also felt like a heavy portion of pasta with not enough balance from the other ingredients. Neil was kind enough to explain that the dish was a new addition to the menu, which rotates often.
The overall vibe at Olio is definitely romantic, but be prepared for a high noise level—it’s not exactly the spot for a quiet dinner conversation. Still, the energy, ambiance, and service made the evening enjoyable.
Would return, especially to try more from their rotating menu and enjoy that inviting at again.

Great ambience. Food was delicious. Was a little loud and hard to hear, but that may have been because we were at an eight top and the table was huge.
