" Dining at Wild Olive was like a mini vacation. The entire menu felt like a love letter to Italian cuisine. I ordered the ribeye special and it was cooked to preference, seasoned perfectly. How they keep their dishes tasting this consistent is beyond me. The only drawback was that it took a bit longer to get our drinks, but once our server realized this, they rushed our orders. Overall, it was a delightful experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wild Olive is an unassuming gem of an Italian restaurant! The food is made with care, and every dish seems to have depth and character. I particularly enjoyed the gnocchi—it had the right texture and tasted fresh. Service was attentive but not intrusive, and the dessert selection was outstanding. Wonderful place for a family dinner or celebration. I will definitely be recommending this place to everyone I know! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thrilled to finally try Wild Olive after hearing so much hype. The ambience felt cozy and authentic. I had the special chicken ragu which was heavenly. Each bite was flavorful and packed with fresh ingredients. Service was attentive, and my glass was never empty! Dessert, a tiramisu, felt like a luxurious ending to a fantastic meal. Only downside was the noise level as it got quite crowded. Still, I will definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wild Olive, a cozy Italian treasure! The moment I walked in, I felt a warm welcome that made me feel right at home. The olive oil served with fresh bread was so delightful, one of the best I’ve had. To follow, I opted for the gnocchi with lamb ragu, and wow - the flavors danced on my palate! My dessert, a homemade tiramisu, was the cherry on top of a perfect meal. Checking in and service by staff was also excellent. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wild Olive came with very high expectations and met almost all of them! While the atmosphere was buzzing and lively, which I appreciate, the main course took a bit longer than expected to arrive. That said, the food was phenomenal! My gnocchi was to die for, and I appreciated the staff's attentiveness throughout our meal. I had a great time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delightful dinner at Wild Olive! The squid ink pasta was excitingly different, and I loved every bite! The wine menu had a great selection as well. The wait staff was very knowledgeable, and they made great suggestions. The atmosphere was perfect for a Wednesday night dinner with friends. I would definitely return for more adventures in flavor! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wild Olive impresses with great style and sophisticated Italian dishes. I tried the seafood risotto and was thoroughly impressed with the flavors. The atmosphere was vibrant and warm, making the night memorable. However, the space was a bit noisy, which made it hard to hear my friends. It’s definitely a place I would return to, just maybe on a quieter night. Still, an excellent culinary experience. " (*Curated Review*)
