Olive
is
one
of
the
most
legendary
and
long
standing
,
standalone
fine
dining
restaurant
in
New
Delhi.
It's
located
at
the
mehrauli
one
style
mile
area
for
19
long
years
and
is
going
stronger
than
ever.
I
was
visiting
Sabyasachi
flagship
store
,
which
is
located
just
next
to
olive
and
while
shopping
I
felt
hungry
so
what
better
place
to
dine
in.
I
had
called
them
to
reserve
but
sadly
they
never
picked
both
the
numbers
but
that's
fine
as
they
did
call
back
(but
by
that
time
I
was
already
seated)
.
So
I
just
walked
in
and
lucky
enough
got
a
seat
immediately.
The
restaurant
was
completely
packed
that
also
on
a
Wednesday
afternoon
at
around
2:45pm
!
Not
a
shocker
to
be
honest
as
this
is
the
perfect
place
for
a
winter
lunch
in
the
nippy
weather
.
The
outdoor
dining
is
the
place
to
be
as
the
sun
falls
and
the
wonderful
shade
from
the
trees
do
make
it
perfect.
I
was
seated
in
one
of
the
indoor
dining
areas
and
had
a
great
view
outwards.
Definitely
one
of
the
best
restaurants
especially
for
ambience
and
vibe
in
delhi
as
this
place
is
just
beautiful
and
exudes
class
!
I
just
wanted
to
grab
a
small
quick
bite
as
my
family
was
still
shopping
and
I
had
to
join
them
again
so
I
just
went
ahead
and
ordered
the
classic
item
of
olive
-
the
Milano
Pizza.
Milano
Pizzas
here
have
a
cult
like
following
and
is
most
probably
the
most
ordered
item
here.
Before
my
pizza
I
asked
them
my
server
Tejpal
to
bring
me
some
breads
and
the
freshly
baked
breads
came
in
around
10
minutes.
The
Bread
was
accompanied
with
a
nice
light
butter.
The
bread
itself
was
warm
but
hard
and
crunchy
,
maybe
it's
a
new
style
of
bread
as
I
remember
them
serving
soft
breads
mostly.
Eitherways
it
was
enjoyable
and
the
bread
was
buttery
and
salty
,
which
was
perfect.
I
added
a
bit
of
the
chilli
flakes
and
then
more
butter
and
it's
just
super
delicious.
And
finally
after
25-30
minutes
since
ordering
came
in
my
wonderful
Pizza.
An
absolute
humongous
pizza
,
which
is
both
a
head
Turner
and
showstopper,
this
pizza
is
a
piece
of
art.
18
inches
by
the
diameter
and
a
top
a
big
wooden
serving
tray
this
can
intimidate
most
people
,
but
as
it's
super
thin
on
the
crust
it's
not
as
"heavy"
as
one
may
imagine
.
I
just
ate
2
and
a
half
slices
there
and
took
the
rest
home
as
I
knew
I
couldn't
finish
it
obviously
and
some
midnight
pizza
is
always
good.
Coming
back
to
the
pizza
,
the
crust
is
perfect
.
Really
thin
,
crispy
and
that
burnt/charred
finish
in
certain
parts
is
just
absolute
perfection
and
I
am
sure
even
True
Italians
would
enjoy
this
Truly
Italian
Prosciutto
Pizza!
The
toppings
are
pretty
simple
-
Sun-dried
Tomatoes
,
marinara
sauce,
some
cheese
followed
by
shaved
parmesan
,
Arugula
Leaves
and
of
course
Prosciutto.
Simple
ingredients
but
of
super
high
quality
and
made
to
perfection.
Every
component
of
the
pizza
can
be
tasted
individually
even
in
a
fully
loaded
bite
and
they
all
just
work
in
absolute
harmony.
The
prosciutto
is
really
high
quality
with
such
a
meaty
taste
and
fat
,
it's
just
too
good.
The
Arugula
adds
and
nice
freshness
relief
and
the
parmesan
is
,
well
parmesan
and
always
enjoyable.
The
sun-dried
tomatoes
were
the
best
element
in
my
opinion
as
they
brought
in
a
strong
robust
flavour
which
complemented
everything
perfect.
Rating
this
5/5,
absolutely
smashing.
Overall
have
always
had
an
amazing
experience
at
Olive
with
their
exceptional
service
,
beautiful
ambience
and
lip
smacking
food.
Yes
,
this
institution
is
old
and
long
standing
for
a
very
obvious
reason
and
yes
it's
pretty
expensive.
But
in
my
opinion
it's
absolutely
worth
every
penny.
My
suggestion
is
simple
one
should
definitely
go
and
have
a
visit
at
Olive
,
may
it
be
a
lazy
lunch
or
a
special
night
of
celebration.
This
pizza
cost
me
just
around
2000
with
taxes
and
yes
it's
absolutely
worth
it
!
