"Always meant to go here after hearing many clients rave about it. Small family run restaurant, not a chain. Wow can you tell the difference. The staff are delightful. Funny, interactive with time to chat give you plenty of info on the dishes. Even if there wasn't something on the menu. Just ask. Super attentive too. But not over bearing. Even down to asking how long till you want your next course. (been in restaurants where it's so quick you don't have time to digest the 1st course) Now to the food. Wow wow wow. Never had food so piping hot before. Tastes were amazing. Pasta cooked to perfection. Al dente. Flavours were spot on. Husband had the Skate. Perfect. Absolutely bang on meal. In a lovely setting with fantastic staff. One of the best meals we have had in a long time. Thank you Olio"

Busy Saturday night and a nice armosphere. Had to wait a time before ordering but after that service was efficient. Food especially the starter was good although portions were a bit too generous. We enjoyed our meal and will go back.

My friend and I recently celebrated our jubilee at Olio on the Green, and it was a wonderful experience. All the staff members were incredibly charming and took great care of us. The food was outstanding—fresh and delicious! We had made a reservation in advance for this special occasion, and they truly made us feel valued. It was a lovely evening, and we will definitely return!
