We flew in to attend our son’s NAVY graduation and had dinner at Olivia‘s Italian restaurant. We are from New York and can be quite critical. When I say this was one of the absolute most delicious Italian restaurants we have ever been to would be an understatement. The food was absolutely outstanding, fresh and DELICIOUS.
The service was Out of this world phenomenal!!!!! GREAT STAFF 🤗🤗🤗
I cannot say enough good things about Olivia’s.
Thank you very much for a wonderful dinner on our special occasion with our new sailor.

Service for carry out was questionable. Took nearly 2x the stated wait time (20 -> 40) and when bringing the food, walked past me to put it on the counter, and then started walking away from the food when I asked “Is that my food”
Overall would not come here again due to the service. No food is going to fix that in my eyes.

Olivia's has become one of our favorite local restaurants--until tonight. We never got the wine we ordered, which could have been remedied had we seen our waiter between the time he took our order and brought the check. Brought the wine, but we said no since we'd already finished eating. No comped dessert, no manager on hand to ask if everything was all right, nothing. Do better, Olivia's! I know you can!

Growing up in Italy, I learned to appreciate food that feels both authentic and full of heart, and Olivia’s Italian Restaurant gives me just that. I often come here for their homemade pasta and classic chicken parmigiana, dishes that bring me right back to family dinners in Turin. The warm, welcoming atmosphere makes it feel less like dining out and more like being embraced by true Italian hospitality
Amazing dinner and service!

First off, the price is ridiculously high for what you're getting. Secondly, the atmosphere, it was not very Italian with the music playing 80s style pop music. And the food was mediocre at best it took way too long to come out.
As well as the service was abysmal. They gave me the bill. I asked them if they had military discounts, he said yes. And gave me the bill back, and it was five dollars more needless to say, we will never go there again. The reason there was no wait for a table was because there was nobody there eating dinner and now I understand why.

My fourth time here in two years… steady improvement! Tonight I had theChilean Seabass over risotto with white wine sauce, peas, and a carrot purée. I chose the Pinot Grigio, Barone Fini, Valadige DOC with my meal. Perfect pairing.
Fish was cooked to perfection, presentation was beautiful, flavors were distinct yet well balanced and blended.
Go, enjoy, mangia! ❤️

Food EXCELLENT ! Service by Louis EXCELLENT! Will return with the spouse soon.
Great food, veg and non veg options. Just the right amount of everything, and very yum! Our waitress did not serve us well. We were the only brown family out in the patio and also the only family who was ignored completely, by our waitress. She was just very unkind, and seemed racist. Not even a simple smile or little assistance with food choice. It was my birthday celebration with family, and she could ruin it, thanks to the chef four food was good. Deff never coming back. Deff not recommend to people of color.
