- L'Olio (Extra virgin oil for sale)
- Insalata Carciofi (Fresh artichokes, purslane, Parmesan, rockets). A new item on the menu, part of Olio's specials. I recommend it.
- Calamari Alla Griglia (Marinated grilled calamari with wild greens) Fresh large pieces of Calamari with a salad on the side that is strong in taste, zesty, salt, pepper and being soft, easy to chew without inviting your clothes for a ride
- Bruschetta Olio (Cherry tomato, mozzarella buffala, basil on two pieces of toasted bread) olive oil and garlic. A simple piece of art that activates all your senses
- Siciliana Pizza (olives, sundries tomatoes, goat cheese, mozzarella, oregano, rosemary) generous, filled with ingredients, large, enjoyable and fulfilling
- Gnocchi Alla Crema di Tartufo: That is a WAW! truffle cream, pine nuts, fresh cream and Parmesan. A successful story it is
- Risotto with Asparagus. One of my favorite plates, perfectly prepared. Adequately cooked, perfectly seasoned and enjoyable to eat

- I loved the place, its decoration and ambiance
- The food is really tasty
- The dishes are prepared with love and passion. It's much more than a simple dough and surely more than a simple cooked plate of rice. A blend of unique ingredients handpicked to satisfy your five senses
- The Caramel Foccacia dessert is mouthwatering. A must try!
The minuses:
- The welcoming bread basket must be more appealing; in the sense, add more bread to the basket or simply go for a smaller one.
- I loved the pizza but I would cook it a few minutes more just to add that crunchy feel to it.
