    We found Osteria Olio by accident, took a chance with no recommendation, and made a reservation for our 5yr Anniversary. It was AMAZING! My husband and I have traveled to Italy serval times over the years, and I would say that Osteria has some of the most authentic Italian cuisine here in GA. Not only was the food amazing, but the service was impeccable as well. The staff knew from the moment we walked in that we were celebrating our special day, and made a point to come say a congratulations throughout the evening...and by no means was it intrusive to our dinner, but thoughtful well wishes. Even the menus and the table setting acknowledged that we were there to celebrate. I can't say enough great things about this new Athens gem, except that it is a MUST!

    We came to celebrate my husband’s birthday and had an incredible meal. The chefs tasting option was perfect, every item that we had was delicious and big enough portions to take some home. We will definitely be back! Thank you!

    We began with a bit of a wait, which didn’t bother us. A small seating area other than the bar would be a nice addition. The special menu items we tried were delicious! Service was superb and this has become our favorite restaurant in the area!!

    Great experience! Food was very good and beautifully presented. Our apps were excellent, better than our entrees. Had a green salad with some cheese and nuts? Really yummy, also had the burrata which was delicious and we also ordered the truffle pizza (excellent). For entrees I had the lamb, which was very flavorful and tender, (maybe too tender, like you would have it in a soup or stew). Wife had the lobster raviolli, which was ok, a bit undercooked and not that flavorful. Dessert was excellent with the pana cota and the tiramisu. Drinks were excellent also. The ambiance is sophisticated but relaxed and inviting. The manager and servers are very professional and friendly, attentive but not intrusive. We will definitely return!

    Great experience. Our waiter recommended all of our courses and they were spot on. Way more food than we could eat, but thankfully they package it up nicely to take home. Everything we had was amazing.

    We enjoyed the weekend brunch to celebrate my birthday. The breakfast pizza was delicious! My husband had the carbonara and said it was ok but not great. Our server, Riley, was pleasant and attentive. Overall, it was a nice meal.

    Fantastic food and service. We went for an Anniversary dinner and they went out of their way to make it special. Beautiful decor on the inside and friendly staff from the valet, to the hostess to our server. The food was amazing!
