We had an amazing dinner experience last night. Our waitress Kathy, from Venezuela, was one of the best parts of our evening. She was in tuned to our needs, knowledge of the menu and drinks, and very charismatic. Our meal was delicious, I got the spaghetti and the addition of baratta cheese was fantastic. The atmosphere was the icing on the cake. I felt like we were in some far away land. The twinkle lights, the trees, it was magical.

The dinner was spectacular in every way. Hygge in New York! The atmosphere was cozy, congenial and filled with Christmas cheer. Flowers and soft candle light everywhere. The punterelle salad was perfectly dressed with ample anchovies, the sea bream en papillote was tender and infused with deep flavor. Add a perfectly balanced negroni sbagliatto to start and the evening was perfect.

Amazing experience at Olio! The food was excellent and they were able to accommodate gluten free pasta with their pasta dishes, so good you couldn’t even tell! Also the panna cotta was one of the best desserts I’ve ever had!!! I’ll definitely be coming again!

Can't say enough great things about this restaurant. i wanted to give it 5 stars but that's tough to do living in Tri State Area. We went on. Sunday afternoon @ 430 so it was quiet. Ceasar was outstanding (very fresh) and shrimp carbonara was fantastic (and food came out hot) Servers were patient and extremely attentive The calamari was cooked perfectly as well (not to over fried) The desserts (chocolate soufflé) was delicious ! Loved the place would it really closer to 4 1/2 stars. Can't wait to go back... and BYOB w/ great wine glasses 🙌
