Very popular establishment. After placing my order with the waitress I had to endure a wait for my drinks which seemed forever whilst observing other customers arriving after me which seemed to have a more "express" service. That's ok. These things happen. The sun was shining and it was a lovely day. Eventually my order arrived. Food was very nice and the cold beer was equally good. Upon ordering my bill I had to endure yet another wait whilst watching the waitress talking with her colleagues and checking her telephone 🤔. I did ask another member of staff can I have my bill please I have been waiting sometime now. It's on the way sir ! Eventually it came. Lesson to be learnt here is to ask for the bill as soon as I arrive 😅. Yea yea . It's many places to eat and drink in Oslo. If you have good time to wait I'd have no problems recommending the food and drinks. Just beware, This is a popular eatery and things can take time.

Went there for lunch with a coworker. I ordered the prosciutto pizza, the panacota and a coffee. We were outside and they asked us if we were willing to wait for up to 5 minutes for a table in the shade or sit in the sun. We opted for the waiting and didn't even have to wait the full 5 minutes. Seating in the shade was necessary as it was a warm day and it felt rather nice, sitting outside too have lunch. As soon as we sat, someone came by with 2 glasses and a jug of water, which is the first thing I notice at restaurants. Then they came back in 5 minutes so we could order. Overall the environment is great, the service was great, but the food, dessert and coffee were average. Nothing bad, but also nothing exceptional. I wouldn't go again, but I wouldn't say that you should avoid this place, just don't expect to be wowed.

We had dinner here one cold and windy evening, and had a good meal. The restaurant is in a great location, so it’s very popular and can be very busy, even on weeknights. Be prepared to wait in line for a table, if you don’t have a reservation. We had the calamari and two pasta dishes, which were a bit above average for taste, but not that spectacular. Service was good, but they were so busy that our servers seemed a bit inattentive. They have a great menu and a great wine list. The one thing that we did not like much was their prices. Everything on the menu seemed overpriced, even for a restaurant in the more “tourist oriented” area of town. I would only recommend it with hesitation because of that, but it’s a beautiful restaurant in a good location with a good menu and food that is fairly good.

Having previously dined at Olivia on Karl Johans gate, I was excited to visit the Østbanehallen location, and it did not disappoint! Our experience was fantastic from start to finish. We opted for some delicious pizzas, which were perfectly cooked with fresh ingredients and traditional flavors. Each bite transported us straight to Italy. To top off our meal, we indulged in an exquisite chocolate soufflé that was simply divine – the perfect ending to a wonderful dinner. The service was exceptionally fast and incredibly friendly. The staff made us feel right at home, adding to the warm, inviting atmosphere of the restaurant. Kudos to the entire team at Olivia Østbanehallen! We’ll definitely be back for more delightful dining experiences. Highly recommended!

One of best Italian experiences. The preparation is amazing. Starting with Focaccia, the bread was nicely done and fluffy. The Pesto Pasta was custom made as per our instructions and it was good though the basil flavor was mild, they gave us some extra pesto sauce to add on to it. The pizza was great, crust neatly baked. The sauce and cheese were in good proportion overall. The toppings were okay. The Tiramisu was the highlight for sure, perfectly balanced taste and the cream was not very sweet. The staff was friendly and adhered to all our allergy and special instructions. Nice ambience and atmosphere overall. Great location. Highly recommend.

One of the best Italian restaurant in Oslo city. As far as I know they have four places around the area and this is the third place I am in today. Undoubtedly I am addicted to their Arlecchino pizza. Savour is different compared to any other pizzas. I have been frequently dine in at other two places in vicinity and was here last night and today. Experience is always been amazing. Only straggle was one of the staff was so attentive to collect dishes while I am still noshing my pizza which could not be recommended in a restaurant like Olivia or any other. Infringing should not make just on one person attitude and so I could recommend
