" Just had a lovely time! The spaghetti and meatballs were homemade and tasted fantastic, just like my mother's cooking! The ambiance was warm and inviting, making for a wonderful dinner after a long day. Our server was attentive without hovering, just perfect. Will definitely go back to Olazzo! " (*Curated Review*)

" Olazzo provided a pleasant dining experience. While I wasn't blown away by the flavors of my baked eggplant, I enjoyed their warm bread basket. The atmosphere was lively and made it easy to enjoy a night out with friends. I appreciated the consistent quality of food, just would like a few more seasoned options next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining out at Olazzo wasn’t unpleasant, but it wasn’t exceptional either. The food quality was average – I felt the pasta needed more flavor and the portions weren’t quite filling. However, our waiter did a stellar job, making sure we had everything we needed. I might consider giving it another shot one day. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night, I went to Olazzo for a late dinner, and it was an incredible experience! The fried calamari was light and tasty, and the mushroom gnocchi was out of this world! Our server was friendly, but it took a while for our drinks to arrive. The decor was pleasant, adding to the cozy, inviting atmosphere of the restaurant. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Olazzo was just okay for me. We had our hearts set on some good Italian food, but the chicken parmesan fell flat and was a bit dry. Though the price was fair and the portions decent, I've had better experiences elsewhere. The service was attentive, but the food did not match the expectations set by other reviews. Would I return? Maybe, but I’d try something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an unsatisfactory experience at Olazzo. The meal itself wasn't memorable. My pasta dish was overcooked and bland. The service was friendly, though it took longer than expected for the meal to arrive. The atmosphere was lively, which was a plus, but unfortunately the food quality didn't match the atmosphere. I won’t be in a rush to go back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience at Olazzo! The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was inviting. The wild mushroom gnocchi was divine and a must-try! The portions were just right, leaving us satisfied but not overly stuffed. I'd highlight the authenticity of the dishes served here, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality. Can’t wait to come back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)
