Lovely authentic Italian Restaurant, Decor is very modern and stylish and the menu is to the point, the meats and cheese starter was excellent as was the Calamari, Neapolitan Pizzas are very authentic, staff lovely, well turned out and the place is nipping clean, will definitely be back
Delicious fresh pizza with a thin crust. The batter on the calamari was so light and cooked spot on. Already recommended to friends and family.
We visited L’Ulivo with family early May to celebrate our birthday. It was such a great night, quick service and the staff were so friendly. We brought our little girl, high chairs are provided, and the waitresses were so attentive. Food was great, we all ordered pasta dishes, yum! Can’t wait to come back and try the pizza.
This place does amazing, authentic Neapolitan pizza for a very decent price! Great to have it just round the corner from us - we’ll definitely be going again.
What a find!!! �
Took me back to my first holiday in Italy, beautiful genuine pizza, i watch it being made, the base being stretched n tossed, just like on holiday! It tasted wonderful too!
Lovely atmosphere n lovely staff.
Visited on their opening weekend and was blown away by the amazing and authentic Neapolitan pizza. It’s a brilliant looking restaurant in a fab location. They have a really great selection of drinks too including some rarely seen, but fantastic Sardinian wines and even Mirto was on the menu! Ci vediamo, L’Ulivo. Will definitely be back. Grazie mille!!
Authentic italian pizza, lovely staff and very nice atmosphere.
Will be coming back. Great service, Great prices And fantastic authentic Italian food. Best pizza I've ever had !

Wonderfully attentive staff, fresh & cozy decor plus delicious authentic food! We’ll be back soon!
Great pizza! Best in the toon. Won't suit the thin and crispy crowd but this is one of the best I've had outside of Italy
Wonderful atmosphere, house wine fantastic and could not fault the food and service, we will be back!
Went here on recommendation. Pleased I had! Best pizza and the people I went with really enjoyed ourselves. Don't hesitate. I wouldn't!!
Lovely food and staff. Even got to try the chef's new creations!
What a gem! A small and intimate restaurant serving quality food! First visit this evening and it won't be our last. Very good service and AMAZING food!!! I would recommend making a booking, as there are only around 8 or 9 tables. It really was a treat!
The best Italian in Newcastle! Authentic pizza with "fior di latte", me and my daughter went to L'ulivo to celebrate her new job, we have had "calamari fritti" as a starter and these fabulous pizzas. Fresh ingredients, excellent wine selections, the restaurant is spotless amd the staff is very welcoming. We loved it and we will definitely back with other friends.
Cozy place with a really nice atmosphere. Here you can find the best pizza in town along with other Italian dishes. Napoletan pizza with a touch of crunchiness that makes it perfect. Very tasty toppings as well. Definitely worth it. I really recommend try it.
Beautiful authentic Italian food ....
The restaurant gets extremely busy which is testament to its overall success and the level to which it aspires.
The food can take a while to arrive but this should be expected as all of the food is cooked fresh to order. Only quality ingredients are used (a lot of which are sourced from Italy).
The chef is a valued member of this family run business and I am told that he takes a lot of his inspiration from his home town in Italy.
My personal recommendation would be for the spinach and ricotta cannelloni which is absolutely amazing.
I would certainly recommend this restaurant to family and friends without hesitation.
I went with my partner last night for a relaxed meal and it was absolutely stunning from beginning to end. The staff were attentive and very friendly (I wish I'd got the names of the two people who served us because they were utterly lovely!), and the food was delicious. The chefs were also very accommodating and were able to alter a dish to make it vegetarian for me. The produce is extremely fresh and everything is made to order - it's very impressive and a must-see if you're in the area. Thankfully, we've just moved in down the road, so we'll definitely be back!
Fantastic place to eat!! I've been here at least three times now and I have been blown away every time. The new menu is exquisite, the truffle pasta being a firm favourite amongst my friends. The interior is stunning, the service impeccable. I have nothing bad to say about this place - worth every penny. Please eat here and support local business!
Delicious food, friendly staff, and a cute space with outside seating too. They serve proper neapolitan pizza, and their garlic prawn and white wine appetizer was utterly delicious, and I'm kinda amazed I had the restraint to not lick the damn plate after everything else on it was rapidly consumed :P Go here, it's great.
Excellent meal. Prawns were succulent and delicious and the calamari soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. The pizza was amazing. Probably the best I’ve had outside of Italy. The menu concentrated on quality rather than quantity of choice which is what so many more places should do. A little expensive but well worth the extra few pounds as it’s isnt your run of the mill pizza and pasta place.
Great food. Nice staff just not very engaging upon arrival. A warm verbal greeting would work so well when opening the door. Ran out of parmesan...in an Italian! 🤔
Still great food though
We loved Luvio! Service was a little slow compared to some, but that’s because all of the authentic food is cooked with real Sardinian passion. Proper neighbourhood bistro. Would recommend for an informal evening out 😀
5 Stars for L'ulivo in the heart of Heaton. My boyfriend and I visited last night for a lovely meal and the food was delicious! We had pizza and a pasta as well as starters too.
Great atmosphere and friendly service, highly recommend you to visit here and support a local Italian restaurant 🤩🍝
Great atmosphere, excellent pizza too although a bit pricey for a local Italian. The service wasnt great but this was mainly down to one member of staff rushing around all the tables, taking orders, making drinks, delivering food and even washing the dishes. More staff on the shop floor needed!
Absolutely delicious. The batter on the calarami was so light and cooked perfect. Pizza is freshly made nice thin base so you are tasting more topping than dough. Husband had a pasta dish which he said was delicious.
Absolutely phenomenal. The best food and service around. Could not recommend enough. Attention to detail is spot on and couldn’t ask for a more relaxed setting and delicious meal - simply perfect!
Called in for evening meal whilst visiting my son in Newcastle. What a great place. Everyone very friendly and well organised.
The food was excellent, authentic and nice and hot. Wine was very pleasant and served at the right temperature, reasonably priced too.
Great restaurant and will return. Thanks.
Fantastic - food here is amazing especially the pizzas. I've visited a few times now and tried different types everytime and havent been disappointed once, would book in advance as the restaurant has the capacity for between 25-30 people.
