The decor and ambiance was stellar at Oliver's. Really nice wooden tables with small lamps. Our appetizer of bruschetta tasted like onions and nothing else. The menu said it had rosemary and oregano, but they were definitely not present in our serving. It was the worst bruschetta I've ever had. For my meal, I had bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin with a... more

This restaurant has excellent food and an extensive wine selection. The seafood chowder is the one of best I ever tasted. The food is fresh and nicely presented. The prices are also very reasonable. If I ever have a chance to visit St. John's again I will definitely be returning. more

Olivers is a gem !! The chef's creations are amazing. Everything was delicious and many dishes had a local favorite. The seafood chowder was among the best I have ever tasted. The service was good and the decor has been recently updated. I would highly recommend this lovely restauraunt. more

Olivers restaurant is my favourite restaurant in St.Johns. I have been there many, many times, and yet to have a complaint. I believe some people complain for the sake of complaining.

From the amuse bouche, to the almond goat cheese, to the citrus poached halibut, to the creme brulee, great food and great service. We had a very nice dining experience out in St.John's. more

Had a wonderful dinner on Saturday night, July 11, 2009. I had the Filet Migon and the wife had the Salmon.

The service was slow,... more

This was easily the worst meal we had during our stay in Newfoundland, in part because the gap between what we were expecting and what we received was so great. The evening began badly when we sat down and noticed we were right underneath an air conditioning vent. We asked if it could be turned off, or if the air... more

Had lunch with my wife and daughter. Treated with contempt by the server. She did not bring me the drink I ordered, and brought me the wrong sandwich. Cleared my plate before I finished my meal. They should post I sign that says no children rather than treating me so poorly. I usually tip 20% on the final bill... rare... more

Small, stylishly decorated dining room. Combination of booths and tables allow for a nice mix of seating options. Menu nicely varied. We had a very friendly server who encouraged me to try the cod tongues as a starter, which I did... with no regrets! more
