About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Lively
  • Charming
Olio Pizzeria is an upscale-casual pizzeria with salumi bar/wine bar/full bar which was inspired by the myriad neighborhood pizzerie and enoteche found around the corner from just about every piazza in Italy. This idea began to take shape before Alberto and Elaine Morello even opened Olio e Limone Ristorante, their fine dining Italian restaurant next door. Wine bars serving boutique salumi and formaggi are ubiquitous in Italy, as is a regionalism which the Morellos are excited to share with you. Sicily is an emerging powerhouse, and touches of Sicilian food and wine delight their guests. You’ll also find exciting tastes from Campania and other emerging regions on their menus, wine and beer lists. Takeout available. Buon appetito!

    The food is always fantastic at the Olio restaurants. I've been dining there often since the main restaurant first opened (my family heritage is 100% Italian so I am quite pleased that there is a consistently excellent authentic Italian restaurant in town). The service is usually at least very good also but last night was a very off night at the pizzaria. Super long waits for getting our orders taken and other service related challenges. We had an aloof server who really didn't seem to care at all about the customers she was waiting on. The owners have always genuinely cared about delighting their customers though so I am confident that last night was just an anomaly.

    Excellent trattoria in downtown SB! Next to their fine dining restaurant, Olio Y Limon. Wonder salads and appetizers - we had the arugula, fennel and orange segments - yummy! The pizzas are very good and wood- fired. All of the entrees are worth it. Very intimate restaurant and wonderful for a date or nice evening out! Highly recommend!
