Reviews for OLIO in St. Louis, MO
This place was exactly what I was looking for. I love Mediterranean food and they hit the mark on every single thing we ordered.... I was very happy and enjoyed every bite. I don’t think there is anything on the menu that isn’t good! The patio was verycomfortable and had lots of cool plants. Just be aware the kitchen is small and some things can take a little longer when it’sbusy, but it’s totally worth it. I am already planning my next visit and all the other things I want to try.

There are few better ways to spend a summer evening than dinner at Olio. Great Mediterranean dishes that are served to share... makes a great dinner experience with friends or family. There is always something satisfying about simple dishes doneexceptionally well. Read more
Pricey, but great food. We ordered the baba ghanoush which had a pool of balsamic vinegar in the middle that we felt was a too... much, it was still good. I thought ohammara was excellent and the pomegranate molasses added an extra zing to the warm flavors.The warm pita that was served with these dips was nice and warm. The burrata had coriander seeds which it made it moreinteresting than the typical. My entree was the chicken kefta "sinnia" while my friend ordered the turkey thigh "musakhan". Theturkey thigh dish was perfectly spiced and the meat melted off of the bone, I highly recommend. My chicken kefta was good butyou only get 4 meatballs for $24 so I felt a little gypped. Overall good, quick service. The outdoor seating is quite nice dueto the lovely variety of plants and foliage. Read more
Awesome, awesome experience. Made a last minute reservation when another place let us down, and now I'm glad they did because... this was amazing. The food was absolutely delicious, the Chef has some really unique and delicious pairings in the flavors. Theambiance was also great - we sat outside and the landscaping was great. The waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu,friendly and responsive. I really can't say anything bad about this experience. Definitely with checking out. Read more
A casual Mediterranean place with a green touch! Great selection of flavored gourmet food with on site grown herb. Carefully... selected amalgam of spices will leave long lasting impression on your palate. The beet salad and Kings humus with warm pitabread are essential for starters. Would recommend adding Anchovy to egg salad, otherwise it can be bit bland. The portion sizeare small but adequate. Garden/patio seating in evening is worth to explore. Music can be at times loud but goes with the vibe.You are well cared by the servers and they can come up with creative drink recommendations. Eco friendly eatery with recyclablebowls used as serving dishes. Oh, and don’t forget to indulge in the awesome Baklava!! Read more
Food is tasty & they grow their own herbs so kudos for that, but it's in an area of St. Louis that looks to me like it's... becoming gentrified so the prices match. It looks to be designed to be a wine bar with small plates of Mediterranean food tohave with wine so don't expect a full sized dinner. I ordered what I believe was Kefer Chicken, which was as pictured 3meatballs in a bit of creamy sauce with some herbs & pine nuts and at the time of this review those 3 chicken meatballs werearound $25. Probably won't eat there again & only visiting St. Louis anyway. Read more

Such a delicious and beautiful place to eat! I love all of their food here, especially the turkey, hummus, and jerusalem... bagel! If you’re here in a warmer season, eat outside! The atmosphere is wonderful!! Read more
