I went to Oliver's for Easter Sunday dinner & was delighted from the moment we stepped from our car, as even the attendant in the lot was gracious. Upon entering the restaurant, we were pleasantly greeted by the maitre de whereupon the bar looked so inviting, we asked to sit there for a drink before being shown to our table.... more

I took my dad out for dinner this past week and we tried Oliver's after reviewing the Tripadvisor rankings. We found a restaurant that had exceptional food, a first-rate server and live -but not intrusive - piano. Drinks were rated very highly by Dad (a large and reportedly well made martini) and dinner (one consisting of a veal dish and... more

My friends and I had dinner at Oliver's on a Saturday night. The food was all of good quality and our server was efficient and friendly. We especially enjoyed the jazz trio. It was a pleasure to hear live music with great food. more

I've dined here a few times and have enjoyed every morsel immensely. The menu has its core regular items, but Oliver's often presents a variety of new contemporary selections. The wine lists... more

Delicious, elegant, romantic. more

Dined at the Oliver’s last weekend and was mildly disappointed. It may be because of all the high ratings that my expectation was built too high. First of all, it’s valet parking only at the restaurant lot. If you are uncomfortable about leaving keys and letting someone to “play” with your car, you’d have to park somewhere else. There was... more
