" OLIVA feels like a culinary treasure! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere set the mood for a delightful evening. The grilled lamb kebabs were melt-in-your-mouth tender, and each bite was bursting with flavor. The service was impeccable, friendly, and genuinely cared about our experience. I also enjoyed their lentil soup—very hearty and warming. I can’t wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" A great place for some Italian-Mediterranean fusion! My friends and I enjoyed a range of dishes from pizza to kebabs. The ambiance was warm and inviting, though it can get a bit noisy. The wait for our food was a little long, but the flavours certainly made up for it! I’d definitely come back to try more from their extensive menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about OLIVA. The ambiance was charming, and our server was quite friendly, but the food was hit-or-miss. The pasta I ordered was overcooked while my partner's dish was quite good. Prices seemed higher than I expected for the portions served. Overall, I believe it has potential but needs consistency in its food preparation. " (*Curated Review*)

" A charming place that serves up authentic Mediterranean and Italian dishes! The lamb shank was incredibly flavorful, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure we were happy. The atmosphere was cozy, almost like a little Mediterranean getaway. However, I felt the portion sizes were slightly smaller for the price compared to other places. Overall, a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was not very impressed by OLIVA. The ambiance was charming, but the food was mediocre at best. The pasta tasted like it was from a box rather than fresh. The staff was friendly, but the service was slow, which added to my disappointment. Considering the prices, I expected much higher quality. I don’t think I’ll be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" The decor and atmosphere were warm but the service left a little to be desired. My pasta dish was underwhelming compared to the enticing menu description; it could have used a bit more seasoning to match its price point. The portions were okay, but I wouldn't say they were generous. I enjoyed the lentil soup, though! Not the best, but I could see the potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely lovely experience at OLIVA! The atmosphere was cozy, and the food was fantastic! We had the mezze platter as a starter and it was delicious. For the main, the lamb shank was truly outstanding. Their desserts, particularly the baklava, were to die for! The service was friendly and made us feel at home. Highly recommended!
