Cafe Olli Reviews
Cafe Olli is one of the culinary gems of Portland. We are definitely a pizza town and while it's hardly the only focus of the menu at Cafe Olli, the pizzas that come out of that incredible brick oven are arguably the best in town. The whole menu is incredible and the staff are competent and down to earth. Overall a great experiece every time.
Such delicious food and a very friendly atmosphere. We always love it there and we're usually astonished by the beauty and taste of the dishes.
We were happily surprised by the excellent quality of the food. The wait staff was attentive and cheerful.

Cafe Olli is a highly praised restaurant recognized as one of the best new establishments in the United States, according to the New York Times in 2023. The restaurant features a diverse menu that includes breakfast sandwiches, matcha lattes, and a rotating selection of pizzas, baked goods, and salads. Customers consistently praise the friendly and attentive service, along with the thoughtful presentation of dishes. The wood-fired oven adds a special touch, with eggs prepared in it, enhancing the overall dining experience. The relaxed atmosphere and community ethos make it a great place to enjoy fresh seasonal flavors, especially on pleasant spring evenings. The brunch menu offers dishes like the Olli plate, which features good bread and crispy bacon, and smoked salmon plate with well-prepared salmon and delicious olive oil. Drinks such as espresso tonic and shaken espresso are popular, with the former being very refreshing and the latter slightly too sweet for some. Dinner options include roasted fennel pizza with a hint of spice from calabrian chili cream, and a bread basket with flavorful, warm baguette and soft butter, though some find certain dishes like black cod less satisfying. Indoor and outdoor seating are available, making it suitable for different occasions. The menu and wine choices are somewhat limited, so checking ahead is recommended. Customers often praise the fresh and innovative dishes, high quality, and friendly service. Watching food being prepared in the brick oven adds to the experience, and the olives served are described as amazing and unique. Overall, Cafe Olli continues to impress with its quality food, welcoming service, and charming ambiance.
