I stopped in here on a busy Sunday afternoon prior to seeing a show nearby. Although it was crowded, I immediately sat at the bar. Service was attentive. They gave me a plate of fresh bread with olive oil and olives. After reading another review on this site, I ordered the risotto, which was fabulous. A wonderful blend of cheese and mushrooms
One of the nicest restaurants in New York
We had a great dinner with 7 people at this lovely restaurant. The food was great and the service, of Susanna and Shalim, was excellent! I really recommend the risotto.

We have been here in July 22 2018 Service was great, the dishes were above expectations and the desert was the best. Wonderful evening for date, special occasion or just night out.
I never wrote reviews but In this case I can just say perfect, perfect & once again perfect! Food is awesome, stuff is so nice and respectful! My server was Susana and she was really professional describing all courses one by one and make us really enjoy this dinner! Thanks once again Susana we will come back for sure!
We celebrated a friend's birthday here. it was great. The food was amazing and the service was great too. Gustavo was our server - Thank you for your hospitality. All the staff were great from the hosts down to server's assistants. Def recommended.
PS noise level is high but esp when it's packed but overall everything was good.
When you come, ask for Gabriel - he was the most helpful and genuine waiter. Went as far as recommending different pastas and appetizers. We came on a Wednesday night and it was PACKED so be sure to make recommendations beforehand.
This food was remarkable! New York Italian can be a hit or miss, but the homemade pasta was spectacular! Service was great! Davidson was attentive and offered fantastic suggestions. We went around 3 so not as bust as I'm sure lunch and dinner would be.
Our night at Olio was first a dinner, and then drinks with friends so I'll start with the first and then comment on the second.
The service throughout the night was really great. From the host, servers, bartenders, they all crushed it. The food itself was good but was missing that extra something. The pasta consistency was great but the flavors were just ok.
The drinks though, WOW. Cocktails, great. Wine, great. The Giardino, WOW. Between the six of us, we tried a bunch of stuff and every single thing was awesome.
Food looks beautiful and amazing. Too bad it lacked the flavor. It was very unfortunate. The carbonara lacked the flavor you’d expect from a traditional carbonara. It was Very bland. The other dish with the red sauce, that one was good, I cleaned the plate. The bread with the ricotta was delicious, nice crunchy outer layer with a fluffy inside. The pasta on both dishes were cooked to perfection.
The place is very nice, staff is very friendly and attentive. Our server provided recommendations and was very helpful.
