We had a fantastic experience in both the food and the service. The French manager in particular was very attentive and made us feel very welcome. The recommendations for the food and wine were spot on.

A great tapas and wine bar with reasonable prices and fantastic food & wine. The waitress, Laurie, was super nice and had good recommendations for wine. We even got a dessert wine on the house when we asked for the bill!

The food and service were outstanding! Unfortunately we were seated at the counter where I would imagine they normally use as a hostess/welcome station, in the doorway to the restaurant. So we really don't know much about the ambiance.

Astonished by the quality of the food! Definitely order the croquettes, with the humble staples in this place elevated to a work of art. As is the levitating egg dish ! Peek at the minuscule kitchen where all this big magic occurs. This tiny, tiny place is bound for Michelin, so get in on it now! The couple next to us was so blown over they reserved a table again for next day.

Had a really evening at El Olivo, food was very tasty (especially the homemade pate). Laurie was an excellent host and really looked after us - offering suggestions and catering it to what we liked. Would definitely recommend visiting!
