What a lovely dinner. Great vibe and good service
Superb in every way
This lovely family-owned restaurant offers a warm and friendly welcome. The food is fantastic, and the service is excellent. I will definitely come back when I return to Harrogate.
We ordered our meals, which are freshly prepared by the owner's wife. After a brief wait, our starter of olives and bread arrived, and the portion size was excellent. Our main courses were incredibly well-prepared, and the flavors were absolutely amazing. For dessert, I indulged in the homemade baklava, which was outstanding. To top off the experience, the owner treated us to a complimentary shot of limoncello. The entire dining experience was tremendous, so much so that we decided to return the very next night. On our second visit, the owner's daughter was serving, and she was just as welcoming and accommodating. I highly recommend Oliveta for anyone looking for a wonderful meal!
The restaurant had apparently been let down by staff not arriving and we waited an hour to be served drinks and for a food order to be taken. And that was only after chasing for a second time! It took 3 hours for our mains to arrive. Apologies were profuse and the proprietor was doing his level best to carry on. He was rushed off his feet. But it was not acceptable. They have an excellent product at Oliveta but the basics must be in place. We were ‘past’ eating by the time our food arrived.
