    A lovely neighborhood restaurant to have. We love to share the meatballs and a Caesar salad. We also like the pizza and chicken parm very much. Friendly staff, beautiful ambience, (we like the bar room banquettes, )fair prices. As good as many restaurants we have been to outside of Augusta.

    Reserved a table for 4. Was my birthday so noted that on the reservation. When we arrived and were seated, I noticed the menus said “happy birthday“ at the top (nice touch👍🏼). Server was very friendly, drinks arrived promptly. Son accidentally knocked over my practically full glass of wine and she generously brought a replacement, no charge. Meals ranged from very good to pretty good (although one negative was the side Caesar was SWIMMING in dressing). It took a little longer than I would have expected for our food but we were enjoying ourselves so we weren’t bothered. Overall would recommend.

    I want to start by saying that I’ve always been a big fan of Oliviana’s. This used to be one of my wife’s and my favorite spots, which makes tonight’s experience even more disappointing. I’m not sure if management or ownership has changed, but this is not the same restaurant I fell in love with. I used to rate Oliviana’s a solid 9/10. After tonight, I’d have to drop that rating to a 6.5–7/10 at best. The food quality has declined tremendously. The steaks aren’t being cooked properly anymore, and even the appetizers fell short of expectations. And don’t even get me started on the customer service, which has gone straight downhill. I’ve never had a problem spending $150 on a good dining experience, especially at a restaurant I genuinely enjoy. But tonight, I left feeling like my money wasn’t worth what I received. To make matters worse, you didn’t even have desserts available to finish off the meal. It’s disappointing to see a restaurant that once delivered such a great experience fall this far. Oliviana’s used to be our spot, a place my wife and I enjoyed going to, but after tonight, I honestly don’t see that continuing. I’m not sure what has changed behind the scenes, but something needs to change. The food, service, and overall experience are nowhere near what they used to be. This feels like a complete 180, and unfortunately, you’ve lost a loyal customer for now.

    What would a group of five and made the reservation over two weeks ago. We showed up and immediately placed a drink order and appetizer order to make it easier on our server and then we waited 45 minutes and still had not received even appetizer plates nor our drinks. The bottle of wine came out first, but the old-fashioned took 50 minutes to get. My group decided to not even order dinner there and go to a burger place down the road. The appetizers that did finally come out about an hour and a half into our dining experience were absolutely terrible and not worth the money. Also, if you have a gluten allergy, it may sound exciting that they have gluten-free crust, but do not waste your time or money as it was a soppy disgusting mess.

    We frequently dine at Oliviana's and the experience is always excellent. This time was a lunch on a Monday, and it uncrowded and relatively quiet. Service, food, and drink was as we expected, Great!
