Lovely meal, calamari to start and chicken escalope with spaghetti was very filling. Steve had homemade soup and veal with mushroom sauce, followed by strudel and cream - all very nice!

I booked Ristorante Olivelli, having visited myself before, for my mom’s 50th birthday celebration. Despite short notice, Max and the team did everything they could to accommodate and even provided a free birthday dessert on the house. My parents were blown away by the food and service and had the best time. They will 100% be back and so will I. Thank you so much!

Went here on Sunday and we were lucky enough to get a seat outside, the waitress was very kind and helpful and the other workers were very kind also. The service was very good. Absolutely LOVED the food and they were VERY generous with the dish sizes. We both felt a little bit guilty because we couldn’t finish our pizza, because we were stuffed after the starters but the food was absolutely amazing! The location of this restaurant is also absolutely beautiful and we had a really great summer night there. It’s quite busy in London and this street felt like an escape of the noise and people of London. I really recommend this place!

The restuarant is very nicely located in a central but quiet street in Mayfair and has a very nice outdoor seating area which is really enjoyable in the warm sunny days. The food is also great, we ordered the vegetarian antipasti which had diverse and tasty options and was more than enough to share between 2-3 people. For mains, we had carbonara and seafood pasta and both were very delicious and filling! The service was overall okay, it took long to get our main courses and we also had to ask multiple times to move to an outdoor table despite that some tables had emptied. It is more on the pricy side but considering the location and setting and quality of food, it’s only fair.

We have passed by this place and initially were not sure if it is the right place for us! However, we decided to go after seeing other options and thought let’s give this place a try. We walked in and the manager greeted us and we sat down and ordered our wine. The food order took a while but the result was a superbly high quality pizza and pasta that made us so impressed with this lovely family owned restaurant. It is certainly worth the visit and I am sure you will enjoy your meal. A well deserved five star rating.

Very good service, and even better food. Prices are also very very reasonable given the generous portion size and quality. Recommended.

It's a great restaurant with good vibe. Food is good,, since we are in a bit hurry so would like the food to come together and share. It would be great if the staff initiate to offer us to change to a larger table as there's a few vacant tables around us. Instead they just put everything on our table and left,, with the dishes nearly falling out and our share plates could only put at the edge and corner.

I would say my experience here was very “meh” and borderline average which was a bit surprisingly considering how much i love the food!! The restaurant was pretty empty and the lady serving was ok but defo had a slight attitude like she didnt wanna be there. No friendliness about her at all which was immediately noticed by our table. The starters came pretty quick - we had calamari, garlic bread & arancini. All very very good and a good portion size for starters. For mains we ordered - the pesto pistachio pasta, seafood pasta & the lasagne with a portion of truffle fries. No complaints at all! I have definitely had better but I was still nonetheless happy. Portion sizes for the two pastas were good with generous amounts of seafood. The lasagne was large! I would come back here but I would prefer for that waitress not to serve us and she defo put a downer on the experience. We paid about £100 in total including a glass if wine & 2 diet cokes.

My friend and I were craving an Italian meal, found this restaurant Olivelli, food was good. We had arancini and calamari for starters, very small portion of calamari but there were 4 arancini. Calamari was cooked perfect the veg arancini could have had a bit more flavour, overall OK. For mains I had the salmon pasta, very flavoursome and portion was OK. My friend had the mushroom tortellini which was delicious as well. Service was quick a d friendly. So all in all a good meal.

Honest to God, this is the best Italian food I've ever had in my life. Everything is SO beautiful from the interior of the restaurant, the staff, the presentation! My personal favourite is the calzone and omg it is heavenly. I am so grateful for this beautiful restaurant! My friends and I always leave feeling so nourished after eating this beautiful food. Thank you! I look forward to coming back soon

I used to come here all the time until I went vegan. Now they have a vegan menu so I thought to revisit and the food is lovely! Waitress was nice but definitely worth booking as it gets quite busy some nights. Highly recommend the vegan antipasti!

One of the best choices in St Christopher’s Place. Quite good food, nice atmosphere including outdoor tables. On the side street so not as busy as the main street. Friendly service. Very good vegetarian choices including a fantastic Antipasto platter.

I chose this restaurant to make my English friends trying some Italian food. The place wasn't busy since it was Monday night, and the atmosphere was really relaxing. The waiters were really nice, especially one of them was friendly and I kind of felt in Italy. We ordered an antipasto for 2 to share, it was enough for 4 people anyway, also we ordered some olives and some calamari fritti (fried squid) for the main meal we went for pasta. The antipasto was really nice and we could really try a little bit of everything. Pasta was good too, we ordered 2 tagliolini salmone, one fiore di zucca and tortelloni paradiso, all of them were really good, the waiter asked us if we wanted paper for both antipasto and primo, and gave us cheese for the pasta. We ordered 3 desserts too and 2 espresso (one tiramisu, one torta gelato paradiso e One profiteroles). At the end the bill was around 120 pound for 4 people and I think it was a good price. The experience has been really nice and we enjoyed both the dinner and the Italian atmosphere.
