My wife and I visited sardinia, so we were interested when we saw this restaurant in london. we are very glad that we went to dinner, it was a highlight of our visit. the place where this restaurant really seems is her Sardinian food as they may expect. make sure to ask the waiter on recommendations every time, the result was incredibly tasteful. we ordered two Sardinian style pastas (malloreddus and culurgiones), and were very happy. the cold tomato soup (zuppa fredda di pomodoro) was incredibly delicious, and the Sardinian traditional sebada was also a great dessert. they also had beautiful wine-guiding. service was friendly and attentive all the time. worth about £150 for a complete dinner for two, including aperitif, wein and dessert. london is always expensive, so this seems quite reasonable for the amount and quality of eating and drinking. olivo will definitely be on our restaurant list when we go back to london.

Excellent, with friendly staff and the thunfish is raised. all this is not an expensive restaurant.

Lunch with a friend eating fantastic, it is consistently excellent and today was one of my best meals per calamari, pasta with corge and truffle. service is w attentive and polite, has not had any wine today, but I know the list good and it. is excellent and at a very reasonable price.
