    As usual everything about Olea for our dinner last night was phenomenal. The service staff is very attentive, but not overly so. They’re friendly and appropriately conversational. Olea is a win-win for us every time we’re there!

    Loved trying this place. Everything was excellent. We started with a couple fun cocktails then jumped right into the Halibut and Surf and Turf. Both dishes were outstanding. The filet was huge and it melted in my mouth. We ended with the apple desert which was also amazing.

    Perfect as usual - the hostesses so friendly and assisted us immediately. Sten stopped by to say hi which is always very special. Lauren did a great job with our orders and water was refilled as needed. Of course the food was hot and delicious.
