Olio Restaurant
Florence
Arvostelut
Some of the best food we’ve ever had in Florence over the years. Just great Italian food and service. Top notch and we will definitely come back here. The wine was amazing and the dishes were all creative yet classics.
Cosy restaurant near our hotel. It’s a nice neighbor restaurant. Needed reservations but they accommodated us for dinner. We were given a table as the party who reserved was going to hr late. Food was okay and recommended. The beef however was tough. Wine selected was good with high rating. Price of wine was very reasonable. Overall food price was a little higher than we thought.
Elevated dining, Menu, Food, Service and Atmosphere are truly excellent. Not your normal Florence tourist restaurant. You can tell by the menu, the food and the presentation the Chef is classically trained. The tables are spaced further apart, the linens and tableware are all top quality and The service Christopher provides is excellent and genuine. The restaurant is not located to the main tourist area but is definitely worth a short walk. You will not be disappointed!!
Outstanding service, delicious food, and lovely ambiance. Carlo and his team treated us like family in this jewel of a restaurant. Easily one of our best meals in Florence!
When professionalism, quality, and a genuine love and passion for the work come together, a place like Olio is born. It's clear from the moment you step inside that it's a unique establishment, escorted by Carlo, who eloquently introduces you to his world of flavors and exquisite details. The warm welcome at the entrance is complemented by the view of the main dining room, which greets you with artwork from various museums, each piece contributing a classic atmosphere that will delight your eyes. The table service, provided by a charming young man named Andrea, was an experience in itself, thanks to his absolute professionalism, courtesy, and impeccable use of formal language. The olive oil tasting, explained by Carlo with admiration for Tuscan culinary tradition, opens the feast of flavors that Olio has to offer. From the tuna, sea bream, tender meat, and pasta with white truffle, to the various signature desserts, and the excellent Antinori wine, the dining experience was more like a dance of textures, colors, subtle nuances, and surprises. A synchronized dance between host, staff, and ingredients, all blending in perfect harmony to deliver the finest service. Olio offers a feast not only for the palate, but also for the eyes and the soul. My congratulations on creating such a small masterpiece.
