Description

Oli Joe’s aims to offer a delightful Italian dining experience, but it struggles to achieve the inviting atmosphere patrons expect. While the traditional menu boasts quality ingredients and well-presented dishes, like tasty Calzones and perfectly cooked steaks, some flavors fall short, and the interior can feel drab and minimalistic. Service is generally commendable, with friendly staff enhancing the overall experience. Regulars reminisce about its former charm, while newcomers appreciate the budget-friendly options, especially for lunch. Despite its shortcomings, Oli Joe’s remains a viable choice for casual meals but may not be ideal for special occasions.

Excellent food and reasonable prices. The three course meals are great value. Staff are friendly and service is good. I have recently been to Italy from Verona down to the island of Sicily so I know good Italian food when I see it.

This restaurant is so good and the food is amazing. I even tried the Sunday lunch recently and it was delicious and the cost was very reasonable too. As soon as you step through the door you get a lovely welcome and instantly get good vibes. I'd certainly recommend a visit.
