Previously I have ordered the carbonara and the Aglio e Olio which were delicious. However, this time I decided to order the Garganelli. I was extremely disappointed, there was barely any sauce and the flavours reminded me of plain children's Alfredo. The restaurant was also half empty at 8:00, but still took 45 minutes for the food to come out :/

I'm not a huge fan of Italian food but enjoyed my lunch at Olivea. The lunch combo (pasta or sandwich with side) was $18 and was very filling.There is also complimentary bread which was great.The venue is really beautiful with moderate noise, accessible seating options available, along with vegetarian options.Overall would recommend

Oh... my God... The food is so good, just so very, very good... We had the steak and the gnocchi with beef cheeks and they were both so delicious! We're coming back for every anniversary. Drinks were amazing, I especially loved the raspberry and thyme with gin. Dessert was scrumptious, tiramisu and tartufo both the perfect way to finish. The location is a beautiful section of downtown, the ambiance is warm, the service kind and unobtrusive; our server was a sweetheart. Hands down worth the trip downtown.Parking: Paid parking lot just around the corner of the building.

Very friendly waitress, and the food was really good as well; especially the frites. Would definitely recommend that. Although it is expensive for thr amount of food you get.

Best food in Kingston for the price, maybe even in general. Amazing pasta, delicious cocktails, even the complimentary bread is outstanding (comes with balsamic/olive oil dip which I LOVE). Highly recommend, especially for a date night!

Love! Olivea is warm and inviting. The food is amazing. Highly recommend.
Such a cozy little restaurant. Love, love loved the arugula salad & pasta dish I got. The cocktails were also delish. Can’t wait to visit again.

Great pasta! I have been many times now and always recommend it as a great place for dinner. They have an amazing spicy tomato sauce and are very accommodating.
