    I was here underage drinking when it was the Ferry Cafe and went a lot when it was Elisabeth’s but this is the best iteration of this location in my lifetime. Went with old friends for an early dinner and had clam chowder, lobster Mac and cheese, chicken a steak special wonderful cocktails and a nice bottle of wine. Pace was great service was attentive and our server made helpful menu suggestions. They say they are a neighborhood restaurant and this is the best restaurant in my old neighborhood in a long time.

    Excellent as always, from waitstaff, servers and owner, all very attentive. We were celebrating a birthday and our dessert came out with a sparkler and also an unexpected Polaroid of our celebration! Thanks for going the extra mile. Food was spectacular!

    Our experience this visit was not as pleasant as previous visits. My dinner was only average. It was very noisy and cold from the door being opened. They did not use the curtain that was added recently. All in all it was a good evening but not exceptional as previous visits.

    Very classy establishment that never disappoints. The French onion soup is simmered to perfection ( my favorite by far), and we were lucky enough to get the 2 last “ chef’s specials” steak, which melted in our mouths & done exactly how we requested. Olivia’s is a perfect place to have a the “ dining experience “ you won’t soon forget & leave you wanting to return! The staff all work so in sync with each other & are very friendly & knowledgeable about everything on the menu. Out server, Adam is one who we’ve really enjoyed having as our server ! He’s just fits our style & shouldn’t everyone have their own waiter???😄 I’m pretty sure once you’ve visited this fine dining restaurant, you’ll be yearning to return!!! 6 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ & 2 👍👍 up!!😋

    10/10 highly recommend. It was our second time at Olivia’s and once again it didn’t disappoint. The food and drinks were fantastic. We ended the night with their special dessert pistachio bread pudding made with croissants from the Baker. My husband loved it so much he said it was life changing. We celebrated our 3 year anniversary, and the waitress kindly brought us two glasses of complimentary champagne. It was lovely thank you!
