I've been to Oliver's several times with my GF. Food and service is always excellent. However, it's very pricey especially for being in a shopping center sharing a parking lot with Albertsons. I do recommend it for the food and service.

Every time we come to this restaurant, we are never disappointed. The food and service are always excellent. We try to work our way through the menu but it is too hard because we always love what we had the previous visit. Already planning a return trip.
