Reviews for Olio Kensington Street
Yuan Ding
We recently received an unexpected email from Olio, offering us a complimentary dinner worth $500. The reason? The restaurant felt that some guests, including us, might not have had the best experience during their Valentine’s Day dinner service. To be honest, while we were seated outdoors that evening and the conditions were certainly different from the indoor setting, we had no complaints whatsoever. The $138 Valentine’s Day menu was already a great value, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Tonight, we were invited back for this complimentary dinner, and I must say, we are truly touched and impressed. It speaks volumes about the generosity and wisdom of the owner. As business owners ourselves, we deeply respect the way Olio handles its reputation and customer relationships. This is the kind of mindset that defines long-term success. The dishes served tonight were undoubtedly some of the restaurant’s finest, showcasing their dedication to quality and excellence. It’s moments like these that remind us—success in business is all about perspective and vision. We will wholeheartedly recommend Olio to our friends, and given our influence in our social circles, we will do everything in our power to promote this outstanding restaurant. Olio is a true gem in the hospitality industry, and they have earned our highest respect.

We came here for dinner and had a great experience! The environment, staff and food are a solid 11/10. Funnily enough, we came here excited for the seafood (which was still good) but our highlights ended up being the pesto pasta, duck and tiramisu dishes! We would definitely come back again :-)

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.

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 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!
