22/11/2024: Very nice food and lovely staff.

08/12/2024: Super. It's cold on the outside terrace. But the restaurant has super service and very good pizzas. Everything perfect!

07/12/2024: Can I give if 4.5 stars? Service was top notch. Atmosphere was fun. Pizza was good with flavorful toppings and the right amount of meat, cheese, and sauce. Loved the crispy outside crust. Which brings us to the overall crust. It was just a little soggy. Now the place was super busy so maybe they rushed the pie out a minute too soon? If the crust had not been just a little undercooked it would be 5 stars. C Great pizza in Dublin!

23/11/2024: Alex was our waiter. A very attentive boy. The delicious food. We will return.

21/11/2024: Best vegetarian pizza I have eaten was here

03/11/2024: Food was good enough but expensive .Mixed salad was not fresh.

03/11/2024: Fui con mi familia a comer y la verdad que no pudimos salir más encantados de allí. Relación calidad-precio más que correcta, la comida muy buena, el restaurante con un ambiente muy agradable y el personal absolutamente encantador. Estaban muy pendientes e incluso venían varias veces a preguntar si todo estaba correcto. De hecho, según nos quedamos sin agua vinieron a reponer más sin si quiera pedirlo. Un sitio más que recomendado y muy cerca del castillo de Dublín.

17/12/2024: Great Pizza and Pasta. Veg Lasagne, Risotto of the day and Aranchini Balls were okayish. Dessert was not good at all.

14/12/2024: It was the worst experience I ever had in a restaurant!! I made a booking at the place for 4 people, and was shocked with the disorganization and the treatment of some of the staff. The experience was bad from the start. There was no sign whatsoever to where people should wait to be seated and because of the shape of the restaurant we were waiting literally on the middle of the way. When the manager came to talk to us, several minutes after the time of the actual booking, instead of helping and guiding us, he was very rude and unprofessional. In his words “you have to wait to get your table, you are on the middle of the way”, and when I asked where we should wait because there was no indication or space, he simply turned his back and left. When we finally got our table, the restaurant only had one option of menu (a 3 course meal), my friends that don’t eat much did not want the 3 course so they decided to share, what was immediately denied by the manager, as every person would have to buy their own 3 course meal. We then asked if they could order only one dish each instead of sharing, which was also immediately denied, which made everybody uncomfortable and we decided to leave. A table of 4 people that was excited to try the food, and would leave at least 120€ at the restaurant (based on the 3 course menu price), left to eat somewhere else because of the treatment since entering the front door. The only person that actually treated us well was the waitress that came to take our order. Definitely will never be coming back

23/11/2024: We had a lovely first experience with this restaurant. We will definitely comeback. Thank you! The food and portions were good. The dessert amazing.

19/11/2024: Fabulous, seemingly mostly locals attending, Italian restaurant. We had a wonderful meal here, I recommend the bolognese and the alfredo for sure! It's small, intimate, and romantic. They had great music in the background. It was candle lit. The food was fabulous. The service was perfect, attentive, but let us have our meal. It was great!

27/11/2024: Had another fantastic meal in Host last night, the food is exemplar. And the music, ambience, staff, service, and general experience are all 10/10

25/11/2024: One of the best meals I've had in a long time.

24/11/2024: I wanted to eat more but i was so full! So nice ambient, perfect service, tasty food!

20/11/2024: This restaurant is truly as good as everyone says it is. From the food to the service, our experience was 10/10. Our favorites were the Cacio e Pepe rice balls, the burrata starter, and the Balanzoni pasta. The flavors were unbelievable. The Semifreddo dessert was one of the best desserts I have ever had. It was also very affordable given the quality of the food. Would highly recommend to anyone who can get their hands on a table!

16/12/2024: I really liked the food and the service

15/12/2024: The restaurant is elegant, pleasant and quiet. The quality of the pasta and the recipe for its sauces are very good. However, our negative assessment is due to the treatment received. When we arrived, they had a hard time assigning us a table, and not because the place was full, but because we got the impression that we were not dressed according to what the restaurant expected (we had spent the day walking). Furthermore, and this seemed especially important to us, the restaurant requires a minimum of two dishes per diner to be ordered at dinner, something we consider inappropriate. For these reasons, we would not return.

05/12/2024: I was so looking forward to returning to Oliveto for our daughter's pre-wedding celebration. Unfortunately we were forced to cancel due to the rude and inappropriate behavior of the owner. We made a reservation for our group in September and a few days prior to arriving we thought it would be helpful to a busy restaurant to pre-order our pizza starters since we have 4 children in our group. The owner was extremely rude and used inappropriate language when we wanted to be considerate to them. We will never patronize this establishment again and would not recommend them in the future. There are many other places where my business would be appreciated.

01/12/2024: An excellent atmosphere, welcoming, happy, helpful staff. Delicious food, beautifully presented. It was a pleasure to be there looking out over the bay on a beautiful evening in wonderful company. Definitely be back. Thank you Oliveto.

06/12/2024: Excellent coffee at good prices. Pleasant helpful staff and the type of place I miss when not in Galway.

03/12/2024: We were told this was a great place to eat , it wasn’t ! I had Minestrone soup , a misnomer. It was luke warm diluted tomato juice with hard veg bits and a lot of pasta, server forgot any bread . My husband had lasagna which he deemed totally tasteless. . We left our food asked for the bill and paid with 20 % ( joke ) discount . Went and had very tasty soup in the same building at the Pepper Pot … half the price and 100% more flavour .

24/11/2024: Really enjoyed the pizza, wings were 6 out 10. The roast potatoes were decent, they came with sour cream. It's very clean, the staff were friendly. The restaurant is more eat and go than sit down for a meal, but it works really well for that type of place. Haven't tried lunch, nice selection of cakes.

06/11/2024: Very nice place, with good outdoor areas. The food is very good for the price
