Olio - Novotel, Juhu
Had reserved a table at Olio The Italian Fine Dine Restaurant in Novotel Juhu for dinner. This place is open only in evenings from 7 pm to 11 pm on weekdays and on weekends it is from 12 noon to 3 pm and 7 pm to 11 pm. Its a great place for romantic dinners.
Reached a bit late for our reservation due to a prior engagement. The staff were very warm and welcoming. They showed us to our table. The ambiance of the place is soothing with them show-casing the wine bottles in one corner and also at one end they have they different herbs and spices collection. You also have the view of the pool and the sea from some tables. When enquired about clicking pictures the staff were more than happy to welcome us to click pictures of the restaurant.
We ordered for Crema Di Fungi soup and some Ravioli Ricotta E Spinaci made in white sauce. The Ravioli was really good and was different from other Ravioli's that I have eaten so far.
Mr. Roshan was attending our table and ensured we didn't miss out on anything and also did make it a point to come and ask for the feedback on the food that was served. When he got to know that I was celebrating a birthday he went out of the way and presented us with a small Hazelnut chocolate pastry to celebrate the occasion. I thank him for this sweet gesture.
Great place with great ambiance for some really good food and wine. Would definitely visit again.
Highly recommend: Ravioli Ricotta E Spinaci
