Outstanding restaurant. And we are picky. This place is a cut above. We had bar seats. Service was outstanding. Didn't have the wine we wanted (Clio) but Aalto was recommended and we loved it.

We went for an early dinner before seeing a show at the Shubert. My husband loves their fresh anchovies which were on the special menu. He also had a cod special that he loved.

We (last night with my wife and guests) love this place- its service, food and atmosphere (and sound ambience). We believe the best restaurant in New Haven area, maybe in Connecticut. The food is always inventive and a unique treat. Also, the guests last night were form all over the world and many Yale Graduate students! I can't more highly recommend Olea!
