Olivios Trattoria is a charming Italian restaurant owned by a brother-sister duo, with the executive chef being the brother who has over a decade of experience cooking Italian cuisine. The restaurant offers great service, delicious food, and a quiet ambiance for lunch and a bustling atmosphere for dinner. Must-try dishes include the focaccia bread, crab cakes, cioppino, Eggplant Parmesan, spaghetti and meatballs, wedge salad, grilled chicken, chicken Piccata, and Salmon. Parking is also readily available, including handicap spots.
It is a cozy spot tucked into a strip mall, but the food here rivals high-end Italian restaurants. The salmon with vegetables and a side of pasta is a perfect combination, with the salmon perfectly seared on the outside and moist inside, seasoned with just the right hint of citrus. The vegetables are fresh, lightly sautéed, and have great texture, showing they are not an afterthought. The pasta is cooked al dente, flavorful, and coated with a savory sauce. Everything feels homemade, not mass-produced.
The atmosphere is relaxed and warm, with attentive service that makes the meal even more enjoyable. This place is a hidden gem for Italian food lovers in Simi Valley, and visitors love to try more dishes. It is highly recommended for a casual yet memorable Italian dinner.
Many guests enjoy going to Olivios as it is considered one of the most splendid Italian restaurants, especially in Simi Valley. The chicken Parmesan and lasagna are favorites, and there are plenty of desserts like tiramisu. Service is always top-notch, and the prices are reasonable for such a fine restaurant.
The restaurant is small, but it is a true gem. Visitors also praise the drinks, like the lemon drop martini, and the “pink sauce,” which is a family favorite. The service is incredible, and the food consistently outperforms expectations. Overall, it is a family-owned restaurant that comes highly recommended.
