Visited this lovely establishment yesterday. The venue itself is really nice. Comfy seats, fast service. Vegan meatball pizza: 5/5 really tasty, no up charge for vegan which is great. Salt and pepper chips: 5/5 slammin. Chunky chips: 4/5 solid Lasagne: 4/5 again a solid dish, very tasty but it’s worth saying that the food was out in less than 10 minutes… The soft drinks were just rola cola type drinks. Overall good food, not the cheapest but would definitely still recommend
If you're in Middlesbrough, you won't be disappointed if you visit this gorgeous restaurant. I've been before and the Parmo is one of the best I've ever had, today I called in to meet friends for coffee and cake! Highly recommend.
I was excited to try Olivello after seeing it on TikTok, but when we arrived the service felt a bit unwelcoming, almost as if we weren’t wanted there. The food itself was really good, I’d give it about an 8/10. Thankfully, one gentleman who eventually served us was kind and attentive, and we tipped him because of his great attitude. However, the overall service at first was dull and disappointing, and if it hadn’t been for that one server, I wouldn’t want to return. The atmosphere was nice, but the initial experience left me unsure if I’d go back.
We came here for Sunday lunch. 5 people, 3 generations. Service was lovely although we felt the mains took a little time to come out. The lady had a nice smile and was very welcoming, the guy was engaging and warm. All options were catered for. Pizza, Sunday roast, healthy options with the warm salad and a pasta selection. The dishes tasted great. Pizza and lasagne had lots of cheese.
My favourite place to eat! Food is always exceptional and the service is faultless. Wonderful atmosphere. Great for all occasions.
