It was my first time there this evening, but not the last. Fantastic food, the Dover Sole was first class and the staff were so professional and caring. Thank you for the best evening in a long time.

Great service and food. Our waitress Christina was very attentive throughout our meal. The team were quick to present our dishes and top up our wine glasses. Some lovely dishes on the menu. The squid ink pasta with seafood was divine. The complimentary crema di limoncello was a nice touch at the end of our meal. Highly recommend.

We have dined at this restaurant many times and the overall experience has always been outstanding. In our view this is the best Italian restaurant in Hertfordshire. Many thanks to all the wonderful staff for their incredible welcoming hospitality, cuisine and attention to detail!

Food was very good, and service was good However we were a party of10 and the long table was squashed in behind the fire. Its rather pricy and my dish with king prawns and spicy sausage had 3 king prawns. I live in Italy as much as UK, and where we are a superior quality of meal would be half the price. A starter, main, and one small beer cost me £45

Went to visit for my sons birthday...food was simply delicious and authentic and went down a treat...strongly reccomend the lamb rack...wow !!! The staff couldn't do more to make it a special occasion.... Price was very affordable at less than £40 per head which is cheap for Hertfordshire. Not too keen on the glass dividers put there during covid but we're already planning our next visit.

Excellent evening. Had the special which was 3 types of fish in white wine sauce and it was delicious. Gamberoni starter was excellent. Service was very good and decor is very nice. I quite like the glass screens between tables which helps privacy. Don't know if these are a legacy of Covid or a design feature, but they work well. Only niggles were that we weren't offered bread as is standard in all restaurants and the desserts were average. Price was fair for the quality of food and service. Will definitely go again.

We had a lovely meal at L'Olivo with friends. First time since Sergio left. Staff were all very pleasant and attentive. It was VERY lively there and difficult to have a conversation due to everyone shouting over everyone else. Friday night excitement! Our food was good, and we asked if the chef could make up some veal escalopes in breadcrumbs (milanese). This was not a problem. So all four diners asked for it. Three of us asked if we could have a small portion of spaghetti bolognese to accompany it. Again, nothing was too much trouble. What got lost in translation was that we had 3 plates of bolognese with sone veal on top. Very nice - until the bill came up. I don't normally check it but as it seemed a little on the high side I did on this occasion. We were charged £15 each for the veal - perfect! But we were also charged £66 for three portions of spagbol. In fairness they were full portions which we were unable to finish. However at £37 for a main dish, I thought it was very steep. Point of this is not to criticise the food but to suggest to anyone else requesting this to order 1 portion of spagbol to be shared. It would be the size we wanted and the cost would have been what we paid under the previous management. A good night though and we would return when next in harpenden.

Had a lovely first visit to L’Olivo this evening. They were very accommodating as we didn’t have a reservation on a Saturday night and had stopped en route hoping to get some dinner with our hangry toddler. The service was so friendly, the food came out quickly and was absolutely delicious. Lovely atmosphere, very clean setting with beautifully set tables. The restaurant quickly became busy after we arrived at 5:30 and it is clear that it is popular. If we are back in the area we will definitely visit again!

First time visiting under new management. Unfortunately, not the same special experience we had enjoyed previously. Our table for 5 was very cramped, so 2 of us had to sit sideways - and we are regular sized. The selection of Italian bread had breadsticks in bags which were placed on the top, hiding the other 2 types of bread. Our local pub serves better bread baskets, with warm, artisan bread... The food was ok but the dishes were not brought out at the same time, with the same waiting staff making multiple trips. And, they brought out the main course before the empty starter dishes had been cleared. The interior is more upmarket than your standard Italian but they need to up their service.

This is our second visit as we don’t live in the area. Our first visit was amazing and our second visit on Friday 12 January was even more amazing if that’s possible. Thank you for the quieter table on the right hand side as you go inside. It’s for 4 and slightly quieter. I’m a coeliac and so many times I’ve had problems when we eat out. Not in this restaurant, no problems at all. By feeling confident that the food will not cause an allergy I can enjoy the delicious menu. My chosen dish was adapted and was out of this world. Thank you to everyone for making our dining experience another success. Just wished we lived closer

I'd been hunting for some time for an authentic Italian restaurant in Hertfordshire and my research took me to l'Olivo. I was vindicated in my choice. The food, surroundings and service were all excellent. We had a first class meal. The restaurant space is tasteful and modern without being over-stylised. The music was spot on - one of the few examples I've encountered of gentle piano music being played at just the right volume. It enhanced the atmosphere. Food highlights included saltimbocca with excellent zucchini fritti and spinach sides. We didn't drink wine, but my Negroni was nicely made. Truly a faultless meal and we'll return, for sure.

A small intimate Italian restaurant creating a cosy feel with beautiful decor. The staff are very friendly attentive. Due to the size of the restaurant the sound of chattering was fairly loud so I was pleased to be sitting at the far end by the window as I personally would have found it quite loud in the centre. The food was amazing so much favour and was mouthwatering. I had the Involtini - Warm Camembert wrapped in Parma ham, sauteed mushrooms, sundried tomatoes, pine nuts to start followed by the Anatra - Oven baked Gressingham duck breast, with honey and black pepper, Reserve brandy, sauteed potatoes and to finish the Crème Brûlée. I have to say it's very difficult to choice which course was my favourite everything was delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant it's perfect for special occasions! To avoid disappointment I would advise to book ahead. I look forward to returning in the future.

Visted at 7 pm Friday 28 July. I booked the table via email 2 days before. We were surprised to find the restaurant full, which turned out to be a good omen for what was to come. The atmosphere is calm, and the service is excellent. For starters, my wife had ravioli pasta parcels filled with crab, lobster and prawns in a butter , sage and cherry tomato sauce. I had the Gamberoni peeled king prawns, sautéed in white wine, garlic and fresh chilli. Off to a good start lovely flavours. For mains, I had the Branzino fresh sea bass fillet in a delicate white wine and lemon juice saurce over a fresh asparagus and prawn risotto. My wife had Dover sole off the bone with green vegetables and sautéed potatoes. Hot plates, hot delicious food, excellent. For dessert tiramisu and affogato for myself. Well-deserved reviews. We will go back. Price £££

Booked on Wednesday for a table for two on Thursday. Staff were excellent, starting from the moment we walked in. Offered drinks quickly and the menus. The order was taken promptly, but not rushed (I can be a little indecisive...). The two (delicious) starters arrived quickly and once those had been polished off we were asked if we would like a pause before the next course - we said no to that and so the (delicious) main course arrived quickly after. And then the (delicious) desserts. Have I mentioned it was all delicious? My wife and I haven't been out for a meal like this in a very long time - definitely not since COVID, but probably much, much longer than that. So this was a bit special for us and I'm so glad we chose L'Olivo. Pretty much a perfect evening.
