    We went for our 11 year anniversary. We were seated right away and our waitress checked in right away to see what we wanted for drinks and went over the specials. We got the New York strip special and the salmon and brussels sprouts .  All the food was delicious and beautiful beautifully plated .  Our waitress surprised us with a sparkler in our dessert and took a Polaroid and gave it to us at the end of the night . We were also brought over some chocolate covered cherries and some grapes from the manager, and we could not have left happier. We will definitely be returning

    This was our first visit to Olivias. We enjoyed our meal a great deal. The crab cakes, fish of the day (haddock) and the salmon were delicious. The service was excellent and the portions were generous. We were disappointed by the excessive noise. The tables are very close together and there seems to be no attempt the suppress the noise. We were planning to return with some friends but we will go elsewhere since conversation would be near impossible at Olivias. This is unfortunate since Olivias is otherwise a wonderful restaurant.

    From beginning to end everything was perfect. I had many recommendations to check it out leading up to me finally getting the chance to try Olivia's -- and it lived up to all the hype! I even loved the thoughtfulness of feminine products being in the ladies room. Will be back more than once more for sure!! SAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT!

    Exceptional dining experience. One of my favorite restaurants in the area. Food cooked to perfection. Great wait staff. Attention to every detail right down to exceptional melt in your mouth chocolates served to you when your check is delivered. Such a lovely gesture.
