8.5/10The food was amazing! Very tasteful, with good ingredients and great quality. The food hall was quite busy, but all staff was trying their best!

4.5/10We chose this restaurant for our last night in Paris based on positive online reviews and its convenient location. Unfortunately, it was a major disappointment. If you genuinely enjoy Italian food, this is not the place. The dishes were bland and uninspired. The arancini lacked flavor, and the pasta in particular tasted like something from Olive Garden (those from the U.S. will understand the comparison). While the pizza looked appealing, it ultimately tasted like cafeteria food. After a week of memorable meals elsewhere in Paris, this experience was especially disappointing.

Hello Very surprised, and disappointed, to read your review because as you can see it is not at all in line with our reviews in general. The arancini is prepared exactly as in Sicily , but we leave it to the client to use salt, pepper and lemon juice as they prefer. Normally all need to be added , and we would normally do it, but often clients prefer to do that themselves. The other comments frankly are not fair in our opinion, and we invite clients to look at comments from Italian customers to judge what the best critics of our cuisine think of us. Regards L'Oliveto

10/10Staff was fabulous and friendly. Food was excellent. The pasta with seafood cake in a crust. So unique and tasty! Celebrated a birthday and the shout out they gave to us was so fun. Recommend for sure.

6.5/10We were excited for this reservation- my husband's dish was excellent: the seafood pasta w/ pizza crust topping- so good. unfortunately they sat us next the bussing station, so it was not great ambience.... The first and second dish I tried to order were both sold out- I took a suggestion for the third choice- and it was not great- just ok. Very fun restaurant - just missed on a few notes for us.

Thank your for your comments. I am happy to hear that your husband enjoyed our signature dish - the seafood pasta. It is a pity you on the contrary you did not enjoy your meal. For the seating we would have changed it if it was made to our attention. Gandolfo L'Oliveto Paris🇮🇹😋

10/10Very friendly staff who even offered to take photos of my small group. My sister and I arrived early and were allowed to sit at the table for 15 minutes while we waited for the rest of our party. Great food - all fresh and very tasty. I had the lasagne which was delicious.

6.5/10Veal was very dry. Lasagna was good but not great. Salads were fresh. Pizza looked great but we did not have it.

10/10We had an amazing meal at L’oliveto. Despite us showing up late, the restaurant still held on to our reserved table, that too on a very busy Saturday evening. When we’d made the booking, we had left a note on the Fork saying that we were dining at the restaurant on our son’s birthday. We were overjoyed when we found out that the staff kept this in mind and made it a stunning celebration for our son when they brought his dessert! He was thrilled and will never forget the complete surprise with the entire restaurant and staff singing Happy Birthday for him! Overall, the service and the meal were excellent, with staff who are happy to cater to any dietary preferences, and who treat customers with real care. We highly recommend L’oliveto. We’ll definitely be going back when we are back in Paris!

10/10We had Bruschetta Siciliana and Ravioli al tartufi nero d'estate, homemade ravioli with sautéed black truffles in cream sauce which were delicious! The staff were friendly and helpful and the restaurant had a good ambience.

10/10Exceptional! Our service was wonderful! He recommend delicious choices. I recommended this restaurant to my sister who is coming to Paris in September! It is within walking distance to the Louvre, so we were able to take pictures of the pyramids at night!

9.5/10We had a great experience with the whole family. The food was really good – fresh, tasty, and nicely presented. A special mention goes to the chef, who was very attentive, courteous, and friendly. We felt welcome from the start. The Cannolo Siciliano was absolutely delicious – the ricotta filling was one of the best we’ve ever had, possibly the best in Paris. All in all, a lovely evening – we’d be happy to come back!
