This place offers first-rate service as well as yummy meals. One of the best place in the area. The meals arrived quick and the prices were reasonable. Highly recommended.

Great pasta! We also love the roasted garlic. This is becoming one of our favorite places.

What I had was delicious, will definitely be coming back. Came here for in between lunch and dinner and had a sampling of food. Started with the caprese salad, the tomatoes were refreshing and were slightly chilled, the burrata was so creamy and fresh, the pesto had a great flavor. They gave us bread along withh the caprese and it went well together like bruschetta. Went nicely with the wine they recommended. Had A side of their french fries which are the skinny kind and they are seasoned with parmesan, olive oil and herbs. Yum. Also had the marinara pizza - this one was missing something, but still enjoyed.

I was happy to see the restaurant as busy as it was on Saturday night. I have eaten here about 5 times and have been happy with my meal and service each time. The food was even better this time, as there is a new chef as of 2 months ago. We really like Olio's service and the sommeller picked an excellent bottle of wine for us. If you went to Olio in the past and was not totally impressed, I would give them another shot. It is so nice to have something other than a chain in Kenwood!

Underrated. Becoming a go to place for us. Excellent bar and wine selection. Service is friendly. Deff a worthy option in Kenwood Montgomery area.

The food and staff are spectacular! It's not the boring old predictable Italian you get everywhere else. Much more upscale dining experience than any other Italian restaurant out there!

Gorgeous restaurant. Great service! Delicious Italian food!! And nobody knows where it is. Please do find it it!! You will be rewarded. I enjoyed their take on lasagna. And the tiramisu was better than my recipe!!! Great wine list too. Enjoy! Hint it's in the tall building in the back over-looking the parking lot. The restaurant Iii on the second floor - take the escalator up to the terrace turn left. The sign for the restaurant is very hard to see from the parking lot very hard to see. Olio is worth the effort.

This place knocked it out if the park every step of the way . I randomly decided to take my team out last night - and having heard such great things about Olio - I wanted to take them somewhere out of the norm. We were greeted with a smile and seated immediately. The server / bartender read our table perfectly and added to the "party " I cannot quite figure out how to explain how incredible the food was. The entire experience brought my team closer together - as food should. This will not be the last time.

Came in last night with a group and had the most amazing experience! The food was incredible! Great portions and amazing quality that kept all of us craving more. I can not stop thinking about the telefono, tortellini, short rib angolotti, and strawberry gelato! We shared so much more at our table, but these all really hit the spot. On top of having amazing food the service was incredible! Our server and her support staff including the manager were friendly, knowledgeable, and so natural in their hospitality. So often you find a restaurant that either has great food OR great service but Olio hit a home run for me and my group! We will all be back very soon!

Went to Olio with my coworkers for a company dinner. Pretty cool location, had to go up escalators to reach the restaurant. My first impression was that it was a fairly modern designed restaurant and the layout was chic. I started the night with their signature spritz cocktail and it was very pleasant sweet flavor. Bread was served in long cut pieces and covered in oil. Delicious. If I wasn't eating a full course then I'd have had two. Gem lettuce salad was fresh and delightful as well. Carbonara was somewhat disappointing. Wasn't served hot enough. Not cheesy enough. It was also harder than I'd like, not exactly undercooked but not at a perfect level. Brussel sprouts were delicious but some were too soft. Had some fudge for dessert, would have passed. Overall I had a great night chit chatting with coworkers.

A little bit hard to find as the only sign is facing onwards towards the other restaurants and businesses. It is on the second level by the movie theatre! The atmosphere is very calm and modern! Very comfortable! Lots of tables, a large bar and comfortable seats. We had the house red bottle which was a great deal and tasty! The bread pieces were wonderful. It was served with roasted, spreadable garlic which was very tasty but could have also used some oil to dip in between garlic. We also got the burrata caprese which I would recommend with the bread. The hand made pastas were delicate and tasty. I had the spinach mascarpone tortelli which was a wonderful combination of ingredients and a mild tasty butter sauce! The lemon ravioli was also tasty but the sauce was extremely lemony. We had chocolate brownie gelato for dessert! Good portion sizes. Went back--- new favorites: olio signature, poorly cut pasta and 100 layer lasagna--- all wows

"Cold" feeling indoor setting, slow service, and mediocre food. On the expensive side for the quality of the food. Unfortunately this restaurant won't make it into our rotation despite the convenient location.

Absolutely terrible experience. We went this summer and had the best experience- went back in January and it was awful! We made reservations and were sat in a very crowded area... I asked the hostess for a different table and she told me no other options were available. I was looking at open tables and my husband went to the bathroom to find the entire back room completely closed with open tables everywhere. The service was slow and lacking anything. The food was delicious and the wine was great as always. The service staff, including the manager, were awful. After sharing our thoughts with the manager, he let us know he gave us gelato for free for my birthday. Not okay... this restaurant will not last long if the service continues to be this bad.
