Olivadi is an Italian restaurant in the Downtown neighborhood of Norwood.
“My family had our grandmother's big birthday dinner at Olivadi today (around 20 people)! Absolutely terrific, attentive, and patient service (toddlers to elderly) and just gave us an awesome stress free meal time and environment. We are very Italian and know good food... this was good food. I also have celiacs and they were very accommodating, understanding, and had plenty of options for me. Overall a terrific place and the Izzi family says thank you!!!”
“We had a large family meal at Olivadi recently and were so impressed with everything. They have a separate, private room for large parties and it was perfect for us! We had a couple young kids in the group and it gave us the flexibility to let the kids be up and about during breaks in the meal. The waitress could not the been nicer, even with the chaos of our large party and the food was excellent, everyone enjoyed their meal. My only comment was that the meal moved slowly and I wish dessert hadn’t taken so long but the upset of that is that we didn’t feel like they were rushing us out in any way. The rest of the restaurant was lovely and had a good crowd when we were leaving but where we sat was perfect and it was so nice to have a private space so that we could all talk and enjoy the evening.”
“A genuine local restaurant, family owned and proud of its quality and integrity. The menu are classic Italian-American staples (various pasta dishes, chicken Parmesan, brick oven pizzas…). The staff is charismatic and fully bought into the restaurant’s proposition as a local, fun, but also elegant and authentic dinner venue. If you squint it’s 1950 or 1970 or 1990…Check any bad energy at the door. One additional tip…there’s veal Milanese with lemon sauce and rúcula, and there is chicken Parmesan. But they’re happy to serve veal Parmesan even though it’s not on the menu. As a final comment—it’s a 1 minute walk from Lewis’s pub—another authentic regional classic and a great place to finish off the evening. I will always make a point to have dinner at Olivadi’s when in town visiting family and longing for a dose of Norwood integrity.”
“Wonderful, friendly spot. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff are absolutely lovely. The food was great, and we loved chatting with other guests at the bar. We’ll definitely be back!”
“We had our Dad's 99th birthday party there. Annemarie and her team provided us with exceptional service. Food was delicious. Thank you Olivadis.”
