Awesome dining experience from beginning to end. Rose and Jennifer were so kind and added to the whole evening. The pizza is delicious (also tried pizza at Bettina during this same week visit to Santa Barbara and Olio's was better.) Unique menu with authentic Sicilian and Italian dishes and quality ingredients. Cozy casual atmosphere - feels like a small European restaurant off a cobblestone street. Wish we would have had time to make a second visit here, but will for sure make it again next time we're in Santa Barbara.

Always excellent. Have been going to Olio for the past 10 years and never had a poor experience.

The food was very tasty from the salad, to the pizza and pasta, and the tiramisu. The service was welcoming. The decor and ambiance was charming and pleasant. Easy parking in a city lot behind the restaurant.

Loved the patio at Olio Pizzeria. The staff from hostess to servers were on top of it. No delays. The food was hot and delicious. We had a pasta, a pizza and salads. The wine was perfectly chilled. They had umbrellas to block the sun from our table. We'll continue to come back.

Pizza delivered to table not cut into slices. When pizza was returned, our pizza was given to the next table and we received the other tables pizza. Waitress was very pleasant with the exception of receiving the wrong pizza. The pizza we received was not cooked as nice as the one we originally received and was smaller Other than that, the pizza was very tasty and our son's chicken sandwich was great as well as our Caesar salad

We made an Open Table reservation and they staff accommodating our late arrival (call them we would be late.) Our food came out quickly and our waitstaff person, Jennifer, was outstanding.

Our server was excellent very kind sweet attentive. The food was good. The price shocked us. My husband and I split a pizza and basic garden salad. I had a small glass of wine. He had the large glass of wine. The bill with the tip was over at $100.๏ฟผ

I had a fabulous birthday dinner with my family. We love going to Olio Pizzeria for their delicious food and drinks.

This place is an absolute gem! Pizza, salad and piccata just outstanding! They had a mortadella burrata pizza that was delicious! We had excellent service and the wine list is vast and varied. Highly recommend! Get their title Saks, so many goodies in it and the dressing is very fresh.

My daughter and I went for Mother's Day. Our server was attentive and friendly. We ate outside beside a fountain which was pleasant. I had the Bosciola pizza and she had chicken Marsala. Both were tasty. My glass of red wine was very good. We got cannoli and tiramisu for dessert. She enjoyed her cannoli. The tiramisu was kind of bland without much expresso or liquor flavor. We always enjoy going here but wish they would bring back the white bean soup!

We've eaten here 3 times since we moved here 3 months ago. The first time was at 5pm mid week. Pizza was amazing, service was great. Both times since then, we've left sorely disappointed. This most recent time, we waited forever for our drinks while we watched the bartender chit-chat with a man at the bar. I don't know if our waitress never put our drinks order in or what, but we were halfway through our appetizer and out of water before our drinks arrived. My husband literally got up and got us more water because our waitress was so in the weeds. The male waiter that we've had was just grumpy. The pizzas could be so good, but they are way over topping the pizzas. Napoletana-style pizzas should not have an inch-thick layer of shredded mozzarella and copious toppings. That's an American thing that does not translate well to this style of pizza. This place hurts my heart because there is so much potential, but it's apparently lacking some managerial direction.

Service was poor. They did not check us in on OpenTable. Everyone in service was all over. Not relaxing and pizza was soft and mushy. Not worth the expensive charges. No value.

The food was delicious. The service was 5 star, it was our waiter (don't know his name ๐Ÿ˜•) that really made the evening special. We'll definitely be back! Oh! The butterscotch pudding!!

Shocked by the prices to find the pizzas are plain cheap American style- nothing remotely Italian about it. Soggy crusts that clearly had not risen, cheap shredded cheese oozing everywhere. Extremely pricey for the quality.
