   We were there to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The food was fine. For the price point, I had expected more than fine. No real complaints, it was just ok. It didn’t have a lot of flavor. I have been to Italy and unfortunately, this felt like food I could make better at home. I will say though that our food came out nice and hot and I truly appreciate that.

   The evening started off with a bad feeling because the hostesses are unfriendly. It’s nice when the hostesses smile and say “welcome” but they acted like they were doing us a favor. Eggplant was amazing. Panna cotta amazing. Other food not so good. Service was wonderful (we loved our waiter and helper) but we ordered cocktails, appetizers, wine, first courses, second courses, dessert and coffee. They flooded our table with the appetizers, first courses, and broccolini all at the same time. Our waiter took the first courses back to the kitchen to keep them warm, which was nice of him, but when the dishes were brought back out they lacked something. Our son was home from London and we wanted to have a special night but it missed the mark. This was our second time at this restaurant that it missed the mark. First time service was bad.

   It was such a cute atmosphere, they had amazing deals on wine, the service was fantastic, and the food was phenomenal! The carbonara was my favorite.

   My husband’s first time in DC and wanted to take him to a great dinner and we got one. Excellent service with excellent food. Everything we ordered was so good that we ate so much! Next time we come to DC we will be back!

   A rewrite from my last review. We came back and were seated promptly and taken care of with exceptional care. The food was above and beyond as well as the drink selections. We came for my birthday and I couldn’t have asked for better. If it’s on your list, definitely make the reservation!

   The noise level is off the charts, you can't hear yourself think let alone hear your guests speak.

   Slow, inattentive service. Adequate cutlery was not provided for the pork shank that resembled something thrown out after making a broth

    We had an amazing experience at Olio! The food was stellar and Amber made excellent recommendations (octopus carpaccio, caesar salad, carbonara, etc). Their current wine special also gave us an opportunity to try great wine selections at an affordable price. Service was quite efficient and we did not have to wait long for food or drinks. Amber was super hospitable and accommodating and the sommelier on staff was very knowledgeable about wine selections. We will definitely be returning for more dining experiences.
