"Went to The Olive yesterday for a meal. I had the Pollo Vesuvio and my friend had the Margarita pizza. We were both very happy with our dishes and the service. Nice atmosphere and the staff are very friendly. Will definitely go again in the future."

"Hello, The Olive restaurant, from the outside it doesn't impress with its appearance, I had a problem with that myself 😉, but let's not judge a book by its cover, because inside it's quite and although it doesn't impress, but what counts at that moment is what you have in your mouth, I was very pleased and it tasted very good, a beautiful waitress with a wonderful voice humming something under her breath serves delicious food ❤️. I recommend it, come by 👋👋👍"

"Update: We still really can't fault this lovely little restaurant. The service was excellent, the food was really tasty and fresh. Not over-seasoned or over-sweet. The atmosphere was welcoming and prices were very reasonable. Just been back for my birthday and had a wonderful time. Highly recommended 🤩"

Great little place, food was lovely and service was great, they were very busy when we went but we were still served and looked after quickly. Thought the food was a little bit expensive but not ridiculous.
