    The food was really good but incredibly rich. I feel like they need a better balance of things that are rich and then light such as more salads for light vegetables setting and interior decorating was very cute but the chairs made absolutely zero sense. It was like sitting in someone’s living room the chairs were so low sunken Table above your chest, which was absolutely bizarre. Jonathan was so sweet but clearly overworked we saw a manager walking around multiple times and never once came over to ask how we were doing in our team dress when we asked where the bathrooms were.

    Our server Bean made our evening more delightful. She was very helpful with explanation of dishes, friendly, and efficient. We celebrated a friend’s birthday and the put a candle in the dessert. Definitely recommend Oleum for the food and service. Want to return for brunch and try the pizza.
