Why Travelers Love el olive
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Great food! Great place to go to catch up with friends or bring your family. Even bring your partner if there’s a special occasion to celebrate. The salad starter was very fresh and citrus blended everything together. We also ordered the mushroom cream pasta, risotto and vongole. To end off, vanilla ice cream as dessert. Would love to come back again to try the anchovy pasta. Definitely recommended. Very very good Italian fine dining place. Ambience is superb and the food is amazing. Will recommend to people who are into Italian but also fine dining. I was very impressed with the level of the food. Really liked the risottos and steak I had. Fine dinning place, all good on menu. Open a bottle of Chianti, I call it a perfect night!

I dined alone (because I haven't really got many friends here yet!) and they were lovely to me here. The place is beautifully tasteful, and the service was excellent, as was the food! Oh and generous portions (I couldn't eat my whole Spaghetti Vingole). It's a bit expensive, but it was worth it for the amazing Italian food! When I get some mates I will for sure bring them here!
