Olio - Bluewater

I visited this restaurant with my family on a Monday night in August. We had to wait about 25 minutes for a table, but we opted to sit outside. The patio was lovely, creating a nice atmosphere. Both the drink and food menus offered a great variety suitable for different diets. The drinks were enjoyable, and the service was very friendly. I really liked the fish of the

This is a lovely, peaceful place in Bayfield to enjoy a nice lunch with a friend. I had the mixed green salad with chicken, and it was delicious! My friend ordered a tasty pasta dish. The setting is beautiful, and we received excellent service from Marguerite!

On our initial visit, a busy Friday evening, we were seated promptly but informed that our food would take about an hour. The servers were incredibly friendly and attentive as we waited. When the pizzas finally arrived, they were absolutely worth the wait! The flavors were unique, and the crust was thin and crispy. For our second visit, we came on a Sunday evening when the crowd was lighter. Despite this, our food still took nearly an hour to arrive, but once again, it was well worth the wait. We started with baked Brie topped with strawberry chutney, which was fantastic. The sauce had a spicy kick that perfectly balanced the sweetness of the strawberries. We also ordered three pasta dishes: 1. **Carbonara**: This was my first time trying carbonara made with spaghetti and a poached egg, and I loved it! The sauce was light, which complemented the spaghetti beautifully. 2. **Butter Chicken Penne**: My friend found this dish delicious and true to the flavors of butter chicken. 3. **Fried Gnocchi**: This was the special of the night and it did not disappoint! The gnocchi were perfectly chewy and paired wonderfully with a rich, creamy sauce. The portion sizes were generous, and we all had leftovers to take home! I would highly recommend this place, but be prepared for a longer dining experience!

Yum! The frushies are amazing!!! Cute patio. Delicious hot dogs and very friendly staff. We actually found this spot after attending a horrible, overpriced restaurant down the street (which we left hungry). Olio hit the spot! We look forward to returning again. Wishing you great success in the future!

I sampled some drinks, including an espresso martini and a non-alcoholic dirty chai martini. They were decent, though a bit too sweet and watered down for my taste. On a positive note, I appreciated the variety of non-alcoholic cocktails offered on the menu! The food, however, was outstanding! We started with arancini and a BBQ chicken pizza, both of which were incredible. I tried all the pasta dishes, and the mushroom pasta was definitely the highlight. The desserts—tiramisu and lemon tart—were also impressive and exceeded my expectations. Next time, I’ll focus more on the pizza and appetizers and save extra room for dessert. So delicious! Additionally, they were very attentive regarding my nut allergy.
