We had a great experience with Tyler. We had an event to attend and he spaced out our order accordingly and got us out in plenty of time to get to our show. He was awesome! Food was great!

Food was outstanding, service was excellent, atmosphere comfortable . Our server made it enjoyable to be there. The music was a little loud to be able to hold a conversation but that is personal preference.

Visited (with Open Table reservation), never tried the personal pizza before. Quite good and filling, service was excellent and not rushed. Numerous great offerings, jambalaya is my next time choice!

Step into Olivia 91, an upscale restaurant and lounge nestled in West Allis, Wisconsin, where vibrant energy meets sophisticated comfort. Designed as a refined social haven rather than a nightclub, the interior boasts an intimate, beautifully curated layout featuring soft lighting, cozy seating, and a seamless transition from a daytime dining room into a lively evening lounge. The culinary program shines with signature dishes like the Chargrilled Oysters topped with O91 oyster butter and Parmesan, succulent Char-Grilled Lamb Chops finished in house butter, and the decadent O91 Strawberry Shortcake. Complementing the food is a selection of handcrafted drinks and attentive hospitality that makes every guest feel like family. Whether you are planning a relaxed date night, celebrating a milestone in the private lower-level social lounge, or looking for an upscale evening out with friends, Olivia 91 delivers an unforgettable experience from the first plate to the final pour.
