"I loved my whole experience here. Nice bar and wine list. I ate on the upper outdoor deck. The menu was unique. There were a couple of vegan options and the chef was willing to customize my menu choice. The desserts are nothing short of amazing! Update post renovation: I had a mediocre experience. I called to make reservations and was told they do not take reservations for under 8 people but that I should call ahead at 5:00 to get on the call-ahead list. But every time I called, they hung up on me. I arrived at 5:30 and was told there would be a half hour wait. So, there are some inconsistencies here. No problem, my friend and I waited at the bar. But when our table was ready there was a disagreement among the staff about which table was ours. There was a reserved table for 4? I thought they didn't take reservations for less than 8). They really need to work out these kinks. The wine was decent. I had the salmon and it was good. The atmosphere is very noisy because there are too many hard surfaces. I really liked the coziness before the renovation. I still like Olive's and will still dine there occasionally; however, I miss the cozy, neighborhood vibes that used to make this place truly special."
