    Was seated in the dining room. Service was lacking and extremely slow despite dining room being less than half full. Steak salad was good, pizza was disappointing. Pizza lacked flavor,  toppings and cheese did not even come close to covering the pizza sauce and pizza came out barely warm.

    Everything we had was amazing! The house bread, Caesar salad, two pizzas and the Zeppole E Limone were all delicious. One of our favorite restaurants for sure.

    Food quality was very good! Service was fine - we had a reservation for table service, which went well. Seems to be working out its identity between “order in” and “table service”. Both seemed to be working fine, just different. Will definitely go back for more!

    Sadly, the service was so poor and the waitress was so condescending that for this visit at least, the review is poor. We were a party of four and all ordered at the same time. The first appetizer and main course for one of the four of us was served simultaneously. The remaining three of us sat with no food at all. When asked about the remaining entrees the waitress simply responded, “Yes.” About ten minutes later the other three entrees were served. I had the carbonara and it was glue. It was so over cooked and the poached egg was actually closer to a hard boiled egg that I could not eat it. The waitress never checked back until she asked if we were ready for the checks. She did not say anything when I told her it was overbooked and I would not be eating it. Yes, she did remove it from the bill without asking but that hardly makes up for the poor experience. No member of management came over to the table and no apology was given. It is sad when you leave a restaurant hungry. I will add, however, that this was not my first time here and this experience did not match my prior experiences. It does, however, make me second guess if I will return again. There are certainly multiple other locally owned restaurants serving the same type of food with much better service. Oh, and one last thing, unfortunately. They need to clean better. The speakers hanging above the tables are so dirty and covered in dust that they look light grey when they are truly black.

    Truffle pizza was delicious. Wood fired beets amazing. Friend got half a chicken on the grill and that was amazing. We were a little confused about the two different menus and how when you get a reservation in the back you have a more exclusive menu on the grill. The bean dip with flat bread was super duper bland and had no flavor to us. So we regret getting that app. My husband didn’t love his carne asada pizza. The favorites were for sure the half chicken and truffle pizza.

    Overall the food was very good, but the service was not. We received one round of water in the hour we were there, and our drinks were provided with our meal at the 35 minute mark. We were offered free dessert, but decided to pay and leave instead.

    Food and decor were excellent. The menu has ample options and the charcuterie board exceeded expectations. The service was friendly, but extremely slow. We were there on a Thursday evening and there were very few other diners, but our food took 90 minutes to arrive and we were at the restaurant for nearly 2 hours on a slow night. We ended up very late for an event at the Delta Center. With better service time, I would of given 5 stars for sure.

    Our first visit. Loved the space. Surprising how big the restaurant was. It had a variety of seating areas. The food was excellent. We both had pasta dishes that we would order again. Service was decent and wait staff was friendly. Will certainly go back and try the pizza next time.

    Disappointing! Had a reservation and arrived on time only to be kept waiting. Finally walked back to our table and the hostess seemed confused, had me stand in the middle of the dining room while she went to play on a computer. She came back and walked me back to the front of the restaurant and asked me to wait, then proceeded to help other customers. 10 minutes later we were finally seated. Unfortunately our server wasn’t any better. She seemed in a rush to get us to order drinks and then proceeded to card every adult including the 67 year old! Our appetizers and entrees came out staggered so half of us ate while half of us waited a long time for food to arrive. One of us didn’t have utensils and asked for some but they didn’t come so we had to get them from another server. Dessert was never offered and after all this we were happy to get our check and leave. The food was decent, but not great and I think you can have a better meal elsewhere.

    It is a nice setting and the waitress was polite and efficient but not very friendly. My wife and I both had pasta and both were served a bit overcooked. The were tasty it certainly not a wow. Wish we had tried the pizza. We did have an excellent appetizer of tomatoes and burrata. Desert was very good also.

    Salt and Olive does it right. They keep it simple: fresh, flavorful menu options, thoughtful service, and a comfortable atmosphere. Truly a hidden gem. The only downside is hit and miss bartenders. But overall I'm never disappointed.

    Server explained that chicken was in the bolognese. Questioned it a couple of times - and finally checked with the kitchen. Another table had a customer vaping. Servers clearly observed, chose to ignore. We notified manager on-duty. They spoke to the table & when they left the customer continued to vape. Our table would have stayed for dessert & drinks - but very disappointed that they didn’t take action in the customer who was clearly violating Clean Air Act. Unfortunately, I won’t return.

    This was our first (and last) visit to Salt and Olive Pros: The waiter was friendly, attentive and great. The corkage fee was a reasonable $15. Cons: The salad was bland and under-dressed. The pizza was just so so. Also lacked flavor. We ate early and they had already "run out of" the dessert we wanted. When we left at 7:00pm, there were only three other tables occupied. Enough said.

    Service was good, waiter could have been a tad bit more informative on food choices but overall he did a good job. Food came on time and was was very good. Bar items need a little help, nothing that a good bartender couldn't easily fix. We ate early so the place was not busy and we enjoyed a nice quiet dinner. Will definitely return with friends and family.

    Food was delicious & service was great. The only annoyance with the night and my experience was the music? I don’t want to listen to 2009 Nicki Minaj and the top 20 pop hits from summer of 2017 while I’m trying to enjoy a nice dinner, and it’s so loud. I’m not sure what vibe they’re trying to deliver but it’s weird and obnoxious

    this is a great little place we have been looking forward to visiting and overall we weren't too disappointed. that being said there were a few things that fell short. first, the price. this is pizza, great pizza, but in the end pizza. $20+ for a 12" is a little much to ask regardless of the quality which leads me to my second issue. missing items on the pizza. if you are going to charge this much then your chefs need to be dialed in and double check their work. the pizza we ordered was missing an item and it was the specific item that made the unique combination work. loved it but will not likely be back, mostly due to the cost.

    The place is quite casual, has an open layout and is quite spacious. Noise level is on the higher end of the spectrum for a restaurant. We got there, and the place wasn’t too busy; still, we indicated that we had a reservation and we were told that it was open seating; and once we knew what we were ordering, to go to the two kiosks where you can place the order (that concept was a tad strange, and confusing, but it ultimately worked well). Food was delicious, and the service was spectacular. Noise level is a tad higher than what we’d like. All in all, it’s a nice cozy place with amazing food and great service.

    I absolutely love this place. I've been 3 times, all around lunchtime, and it has been a treat each time. My favorite is the Heirloom Caprese salad and the Truffles pizza on gluten free crust. The vibe of the place is very cool. I'll definitely be back again and again. The only thing I don't like is ordering at the stand upon entering. I prefer to be seated before placing my order.
