It was my sons 28 birthday with three of us dining, our server recommended the tasting menu plus we added one more pasta dish of her choice. The food was simply delicious. The tasting menu included Arancini, Whipped Goat Ricotta, Culatello, Castelfranco Salad, Chestnut Agnolotti, we added the Gnocchi, Pork Saltimboca ending with the Panna Cotta. We left very full and it was a great evening. Thank you Olia we will be back.

The food was great and the service great until the end.....our waitress was in a huge rush to get us out the door. We weren't ready for our bill, it was bought without asking to split it, she stopped refilling our water, even bought our coats waaay before we were ready. We wanted to chat a bit more.... getting rushed out like this was very disappointing. We had to go elsewhere. That soured the experience. I won't return

We had the Olia tasting menu and everything was delicious! We felt that it was good value for the amount of food and our server was very friendly. The restaurant also had a chill and quiet ambiance with just enough lighting.

Unbelievable food and truly superb service. Quite expensive, but the food is incredible. Quite a loud room, when completely full, but not deafening. Will be back as soon as possible (likely only for special occasions due to affordability)

We went to Olia for a birthday celebration and it was fantastic! They had a hand written birthday card on the table which was a really great touch! We ordered the Tuna Crudo, Arancini, Whipped Goat Ricotta, Beef Tartare, Castelfranco Salad, Chestnut Agnolotti, and Gnocchi. All dishes were fantastic but the standouts were: Beef Tartare, Whipped Goat Ricotta, and the Chestnut Agnolotti. The service was great, and the food was amazing. I would recommend this place to anyone who is celebrating anything, even if it's just getting through the work day. Reservations are highly recommended and it is PACKED all the time. Get in while you can!
