    Everything was exceptional from start to finish. Destiny was our waitress, and she truly went above and beyond. Since the menu is written in Italian, she took the time to walk us through every section from the appetizers and salads to the entrées and desserts making the entire experience feel comfortable and personalized. She asked about our preferences, explained popular dishes, and recommended items based on what we enjoyed, which made ordering so much easier. We started with the shareable potato dish with shrimp and wine sauce, along with an eggplant appetizer, and both were absolutely delicious. The service throughout the evening was impeccable. Our water glasses were constantly refilled without us having to ask, and each course was cleared promptly with fresh silverware brought out every time. For dessert, we had the affogato — vanilla gelato topped with espresso and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience. Oliva has a smaller, more intimate atmosphere that feels warm, elegant, and inviting. I especially loved the open floor plan where you can watch the chefs cooking, which added so much to the ambiance and overall dining experience.

    Our son moved back to the area and we brought him here for a birthday dinner. We had not heard of Oliva and since we like to try new places, figure it was worth a shot. We were blown away by the entire experience! First, the cocktails are well crafted. The rye and bourbon manhattans were great. In fact my rye manhattan was so good, I skipped my normal glass of wine for another one over dinner. My wife had the Pear 75 and also wears great. We all got salads and they easily were shareable for two but well worth it. Ordered the porterhouse and NY Strip which were cooked perfectly and delicious. For desert we split a cheesecake and pistachio gelato. Yum. Our server was Daniel with others keeping water glasses full and assisting. We never wanted for anything as they were all over taking care of us! Well done!!

    Had a great experience at our first visit to Oliva! We shared everything, table of 4, family style and it was great. Our server, Destiny, was wonderful - great recommendations and just solid service. Highly recommend the big shareable steak!

    My Olivia experience was excellent. I came here with my coworkers for dinner. Right out the gate, our waitress was attentive and super knowledgeable (so high marks there.) The food was finger-licking good. We ordered a little bit of everything (for apps) and my favorite was the jumbo shrimp. I also had the prosciutto salad; not quite my speed but wasn't a bad dish. For the main I tried the NY strip; it was cooked to perfection and filling. One of my coworkers has foie gras added to their steak and I got to try it...I highly recommend adding that to you steak. The sides were baked potato (not bad) and mushrooms (so good.) For dessert I tried the tiramisu (excellent), crostada (not bad) and the cheesecake (one of the best cheesecakes I've had.) I washed it all down with the bacon old fashioned (yaaaass) and the lavender sidecar (pretty good.) In closing, I'll be back. Great experience from start to finish

    Oliva absolutely exceeded our expectations! We had incredible service, despite it being a busy Saturday night. The staff was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond for us the entire night. We were celebrating birthdays and the staff went out of their way to make us feel special by surprising us with dessert! The food, wine, and drinks were absolutely amazing...we couldn't stop talking about it. Definitely make a reservation on the weekend because it gets. busy! But it is by far our new favorite spot in Cleveland!
