This is my favorite restaurant to visit when traveling for work. What impresses me most is the consistency in excellent customer service and delicious seafood dishes! David was my bartender this time and he made sure I was taken care of and carried on enjoyable conversation with me while he worked. Another wonderful experience! Kudos to the cooks as I tried new dishes and wow they are my new favorites!

Catering at Olive Oil was fantastic. Kerrie was lovely to work with and even added in a few small extras into my order. She made things work with my budget in mind, and the food turned out great! All of our guests loved our selection.
