   We started with a happy hour cocktail at the bar and then were seated at a nice table and had Anthony again as our server. The appetizers and entrees were all very good, the service very good, and the atmosphere very nice! It was quite busy, so a little loud, but not too much so. Overall, an excellent evening!

   I’m a frequent diner at Olio. I tried the salmon dish this evening and it was really well delivered. The skin was crispy, fish cooked nicely, and the purée tied the protein and veggies together. The kitchen and staff were timely with my orders. I’ll definitely keep coming back.

   Great Open Table rating so we wanted to try. Staff was very welcoming and it was a nice spring evening so the giant windows were slid open. Bottles of wine, mostly Italian imports, were half price, so we opted for a nice red blend. “Sorry, we’re out”. Ok. How about this blend? “Sorry, we’re out”. On the third try I found one, which was delicious. The server never offered a recommendation. We slit the burrata salad, which was delicious and our main dishes soon followed. The branzino dish was tasty, the fish still warm. However, the carbonara was served less than warm. Who was on the window with one last look before serving? I suspect the dish sat while waiting for the branzino. Staff offered to replace, however to save time, how about the Caesar salad? Again, disappointing. Bagged Romain with tasteless dressing although shaved parm on top was plentiful. Staff credited the carbonara and salad, so we will be back.

   The service was exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Our waitress, Emily stood out with her patient and engaging explanation of each dish on the menu, all delivered with a delightful sense of humor. We absolutely loved her! The food was uniquely seasoned and full of rich, balanced flavors, and the drinks and wine selection were equally impressive. A fantastic dining experience—highly recommended!

   The service was terrible. What a rude server! I would definitely not recommend friends and family to go. Very uncomfortable chairs and underwhelming ambiance. Food is nothing out of the ordinary.

    Overall a good experience! We got there at the tail end of happy hour and the noise level was definitely high but quieted down as the night went on. Service was quick and our server (I don’t remember his name) was very friendly. For food, I would definitely recommend the Trofiette with pesto. Other than the noise, the only other real issue we had was that the two top tables are SO small which made it a little challenging to share multiple plates at once.
