Oliveto at Haddington House — Restaurant in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown

Beautiful food and ambience and have eaten here many times. Our order of 5 was wrong tonight and one of our party was left without a main course . The offering was a pasta dish or to cook the dish that was ordered which would be another 20 minutes. We opted neither and to share with one of the other party in our group. We ordered wine, drinks dessert and our bill came and we paid with the 10% included tip and more. I mentioned to the manager I really thought was disappointing that we had to share a main and that there should have been a dessert or something for the inconvenience of being with our party and one not eating a meal. I was told I was offered pasta or could wait for the dish to be cooked . I was then told I could speak to the director which I didn’t feel necessary and said I would call on Tuesday after the weekend ( who was so apologetic) but the manager did and he was quite forceful and rude to all of us .Really awful end to a lovely evening and one of our guests so disappointed but yet we paid above and beyond. Very...

This is the first time I've not been overly impressed by Oliveto restaurant. I've been going to this rest. over the last 4 years and yesterday (mother's day) I've been quite disappointed. First, I've ordered the Duck main, and after a few minutes the girl came back saying there was none left (even though we were booked for lunch at 12.30 and were the first ones there) so I suppose they just didn't have it on the menu at all that day. I wasn't offered any alternative, so I have chosen the pork braciola, which was slightly over cooked for my liking and very greasy. Then I had the wintery crunch dessert and it was ok, pity the fruit was cold as it didn't make it justice, as I once had it before, with much warmer fruit and it was delicious. My children shared 1 margherita pizza and a few chips, and my husband had the chicken main (we had no starters). To drink we shared a prosecco bottle - and the bill came to around 130 €. I'm not sure I want to go there again...a bit of a let down for such...

One of the best evenings for a family birthday with the most amazing food and outstanding staff. A pleasure before walking into the restaurant- location and presentation is stunning with amazing views over Dun Laoghaire harbour and Dublin Bay beyond. Staff were attentive and welcoming and full adherence to current COVID requirements which is reassuring. The waitress from Italy was friendly polite efficient and extremely happy to be there. The food was amazing and fresh aromatic and very well presented. We had a lovely with evening with 8 family member celebrating a family birthday. We really could not have asked for a better night! We had a full range of the menu with amongst some of the items were:charcuterie board for 2 - very generous portion! Pizza which was delicious! Gnocchi and pork were perfect and the desserts outstanding! The kitchen has what it takes to stand out for the right reasons! Well done! Great to see such high standards for a budget! We will be...
