Oak & Olive Restaurant

Definitely visit them. We really enjoyed this place. There was, no joke, a large Italian family (kids, grandparents, the whole deal) at the table next to us chatting away in Italian, which speaks volumes to the authenticity here. This is not American-ized Italian food, but rather is the real deal. I had the lasagna which was amazing and my wife had some strange pasta that has a texture like mash potatoes that I don't remember the name. She loved it. It wasn't for me. They have pizza too, so we'll need to go back and try that. Prices are not cheap, but fair. Portions are not huge but you are trading a bit of volume for really great quality. We were plenty full after a great visit and then wandered to the plaza across the street for ice-cream which accentuated a great night. They also have a full bar and tons of wine.

Innovative and absolutely dynamite Italian restaurant in a clean modern space. Very well curated drink and main food menu with excellent wood-stone pizza. Desserts are home made. The menu is small but you really can't go wrong here. It's also way more reasonably priced than other Italian restaurants in the area.

We sat at the bar, because the house was full. This was fabulous, because we got to chat with the owner who is the bartender, bread baker, and inspiration for all the dishes. It was a relaxed atmosphere, incredibly tasty food, and creative cocktails. We kept seeing delicious wood-fired pizzas being brought to other customers, so we ordered a Margherita to go for our lunch the next day. We highly recommend and will return.

Absolutely Incredible! Fantastic area with a wonderful surrounding view. Oak & Olive is a unique restaurant with a menu that seems to have something for everyone. Pro Tip: Order the Roasted Carrot Ravioli. You've never had anything like it and it will blow you away! Phenomenal experience. Be sure to check it out!

We've been here a couple times. And while the restaurant is known for their pizza, we have yet to try it, opting for their pasta instead. Both times, we've had the Oak and Olive salad which is outstanding. The fresh ricotta and herb vinaigrette make the salad. The focaccia and house made soup have been really good both times as well. On our first visit, we had the Cacio E Pepe pasta which we both enjoyed. Simple but flavorful and well executed. On the second visit, we tried the dungeness crab risotto. While it looks beautiful, we were disappointed. The combination of flavors just didn't work for either of us. The corn was too sweet, and the arugula was too bitter, and both overpowered the sweet taste of the dungeness crab to the point you could barely taste the crab. Despite the risotto, we do enjoy this restaurant and look forward to a third visit to try their pizza.
