Ollie Irene

Excellent service, delicious food and overall a 5 star experience from this local restaurant. Recommendations from the server were spot on, the seasonal menu items were delicious, and everything neatly finished with a single scoop of coffee bourbon ice cream made this an experience I am eager to return to! If you can't tell, I certainly recommend Ollie Irene, you won't regret it.

I ordered to scallops. Perfectly seared over a fresh pea puree. A great mixture of warmth with the freshness of the veggies and a hint of lemon. My friend ordered the seared chopped steak. I actually ended up eating half of his because it was so good. Since everything was so delicious, we decided to order dessert.

This is the definition of hidden gem. Beautiful part of Birmingham. The managers are extremely knowledgeable about anything related to fine dining. The food is literally the best I’ve ever eaten in my life. Every single item is prepared fresh with fresh ingredients and if I had the funds to eat here 7 days a week, I would.

Amazing food; far surpasses any other fine dining in Birmingham. We ordered takeout and got the Summer Tagliatelle, burger, and cookies. The summer pasta was wonderful- light, garlicky, and bursting with veggies. The pasta was obviously fresh made and super tender. The burger was the most complex yet balanced thing I’ve eaten in Birmingham. The mixture of herbs, spices, and sauces was amazing, and really brought Birmingham dining into the present for me. The cookies were all perfectly baked. My favorite was the chocolate Vietnamese coffee cookie. As far as the takeout process, ordering was easy and pickup was quick and socially distanced. We will definitely be back again soon!
