  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Charming
  • Great for outdoor dining
Olio Pizzeria is an upscale-casual pizzeria with salumi bar/wine bar/full bar which was inspired by the myriad neighborhood pizzerie and enoteche found around the corner from just about every piazza in Italy. This idea began to take shape before Alberto and Elaine Morello even opened Olio e Limone Ristorante, their fine dining Italian restaurant next door. Wine bars serving boutique salumi and formaggi are ubiquitous in Italy, as is a regionalism which the Morellos are excited to share with you. Sicily is an emerging powerhouse, and touches of Sicilian food and wine delight their guests. You’ll also find exciting tastes from Campania and other emerging regions on their menus, wine and beer lists. Takeout available. Buon appetito!

    Friendly and efficient service. Lasagna and our pizza were both excellent. Cozy space but noise level was still good.

    Food was not great — Prosciutto and artichoke pizza was Canadian bacon and canned artichokes, Cesar salad looked like it was out of the bag and had no dressing, burrata ratatouille was sweet and sour, weird and gross. Overall disappointed.

    Great place for a casual meal in a cosy indoor space. We visited on a Friday night at 6 and the place was full. Fortunately we had booked a table and were promptly seated. We shared the olive trio to nibble on while we waited and enjoyed a rosso di Montalcino. We then shared a generous chopped salad and a special pizza offering, the Wueen Margarita. Food and wine were delicious, the atmosphere was convivial, and the service was excellent.

    Everything we ordered was delicious! Cauliflower, Favorita Salad, and an Umbra pizza. Lalo margaritas were great too. But the best of all, the butterscotch pudding! Oh my! Will be back soon!

    We had the pasta with pink sauce and it was delicious, as it was the seafood pizza. 🤩 We had a lovely time at this cute and full of character restaurant. Friendly and informative staff as well, thanks!
