Went here with my partner for a nice lunch out and the waiters were super attentive to us. They explained the menu nicely to us and the food came out at great timings. The food was even better than we thought it would be and my partner always raves about wanting to go back. Highly recommend reservation in for the $59 3 Course Set Lunch Menu. Ambience and view were also amazing.

My partner and I went to Olio for a Valentine’s day set menu but we decided to avoid the crowd and went on Saturday instead on Friday. This was the best decision. Restaurant had great atmosphere and we did not have to wait much for our table or for our meals. Staff were extremely friendly. The set menu was delicious and powerful. Food had great taste and punch. I did not mind at all that most of the meals were tomato based. Combination of flavours were sophisticated, you do not eat this kind of dish and your local corner shop. Wine was divine and dessert was definitely mind blowing.

My boyfriend and I celebrated our anniversary here with the $59 three course meal deal. I really enjoyed my experience there and the food was absolutely lovely! The service and atmosphere was quite sophisticated and very enjoyable for our meals and soft conversation. Moreover, the service was quite nice as well! We really enjoyed our time today. Thank you for having us!

Had our anniversary here and they generously gave us a glass of sparkling white wine. Staff are very attentive and catered to us very well. Great ambiance and just near the Spice Alley if you want options. A good 10 mins. walk from Haymarket light rail. Loo set-up is a bit funny but maybe it’s just me. Anyway, the calamari though is pretty bland but overall would recommend the restaurant.

We had our wedding at Olio, and it was absolutely perfect! Our guests complimented the eggplant parmigiana and ragout pasta, and the food, wine, and service were outstanding. The staff were attentive, and the day flowed seamlessly. Special thanks to the events team and staff on the day. Many guests said they'll choose Olio for their next event highly recommend!
