Olio

Italian food is defiantly a favourite and the menu at Olio is diverse and exciting. Service is appeasing and the waiters very welcoming and present well. The food was delicious. Special note about the prawn ravioli; it's defiantly a dish to order. The only small negative is that I expected a larger serving size for the main for the price point. Still had room for more when I left ????. Would defiantly return.

Olio” means “oil” in Italian, and as we sat down in this impeccably decorated restaurant, we were treated to a bread basket accompanied by Olio’s own homemade olive oil. Situated on Kensington Street, Olio is a beautiful Sicilian fine dining restaurant that offers an array of creative and decadent dishes. Some of the highlights included the 22-hour sous vide wagyu served on truffled mash, and the risone pasta with octopus and bone marrow. It’s hard to describe just how perfectly balanced each dish was, with all the beautiful ingredients singing through with each bite. Each dish was presented beautifully: our entree consisted of wafers served on a cactus leaf to give you an idea of how unique and thoughtful the plating was. The staff were all very attentive and polite, and we were lucky enough to meet the head chef and it was very obvious just how passionate he was about his food. Olio is a must-try if you are looking for a dining experience that is something special, or if you are simply in the area.
