An August Evening at Olivia

What a wonderful evening at Olivia!  Everything was so fresh and locally sourced, some of it right from Olivia’s garden.  The stand-out menu concluded with "the best creme brulee I have ever had!" according to more than one diner.

Olivia is a vibrant venue with eclectic food, and is rated by Trip Advisor in the top 3% of Austin’s over 3,000 restaurants.  Typical reviews go something like this: “I almost don't want to write a review for this restaurant for one reason alone, I don't want everyone finding out just how amazing this place is!  The chef is a god in our eyes… The menu here is one of the most exciting aspects of the restaurant…”
