Olives and Oil New Haven

We had a lovely meal here in an incredible atmosphere. The pasta was fresh and rich and savoury in all the best ways. The wine selection is affordable and broad. It was very busy when we were here and our pizza was a bit over done. Other pizzas we saw were cooked to perfection. We just got unlucky. We mentioned something and the manager came right over and comped the pizza and gave us a free dessert. Excellent service. Delicious food. Great atmosphere. Totally recommend.

Good place to hangout with friends. Don't forget to try their 'The Notorious PIG' drink. Food was good, our server was friendly. If you’re planning to visit near Yale University, this is a must-go place.

I have tried at least 20 restaurants in New Haven and this is by far the worst without doubt. It was around 5pm and there weren't many diners. The bartender didn't greet with warmth. I ordered a salad and spaghetti, and they both took a long time to come. I felt offended when the spaghetti came before the salad and there wasn't a spoon with it. I asked for the spoon, and got a cute, little one which obviously was meant for disserts. The meatballs tasted dry. Perhaps they sat in the fridge for a little bit too long. The worst part came when the bartender started to whistle and dance with the music in front of me when I was eating. They earned a star for the salad. That tasted good. But there is no way for me to visit for a second time.
