No habíamos hecho una reserva. Eran las dos y media de la tarde de un día laboral, pero aun así conseguimos una mesa para dos. La comida fue deliciosa, aunque los mejillones estaban un poquito demasiado salados. Una cosa que no me gustó mucho fue que la camarera nos habló en inglés, aunque pudimos hablar español. Vale, podemos hablar inglés tambien y quizá quería practicarlo o solo intentaba ser amable, pero resultó un poco raro. La atmósfera era agradable y la comida tenía un buen precio: 15 € por dos platos y una bebida.

Un espectáculo de pastas!! 10/10! Tuvimos suerte porque se cayó una reserva (estaba lleno). El lugar es pequeño pero muy bien ambientado. La pasta es un viaje de ida! Sin dudas se vuelve!

Comida casera italiana de gran calidad y con un precio razonable. Raciones generosas y atención fantástica.

Me ha gustado mucho. El menú del día está muy bien, y tiene una relación calidad precio estupenda, díficil de encontrar en Madrid y más aún en el centro.

¡Excelente experiencia! La comida estaba deliciosa, especialmente la pasta casera. El ambiente es acogedor y el servicio fue muy amable y atento. Sin duda, uno de los mejores restaurantes italianos de la ciudad.

Fuimos un lunes a las 14:40 y tuvimos que esperar un poquito. Comimos un menú por 15€ con una generosa selección de platos. Te entra el primero, el segundo y postre mas bebida (cerveza, copa de vino, etc). La comida estaba deliciosa y las cantidades estaban muy bien. La pasta pappardelle dello chef estaba particularmente buena, y el postre de tarta de queso con chocolate y plátano también. Un ambiente acogedor y un servicio rápido; el personal muy atento también. Lo repetiremos sin duda.

Italiano auténtico. Restaurante pequeñito pero muy acogedor. La comida es buenísima, el servicio super rápido y muy agradable, y el precio inmejorable. Tienen menú del día muy bien de precio. Muy recomendable.

Siempre recomiendo este coqueto restaurante italiano pero me di cuenta que nunca había dejado una reseña. Lo conozco desde hace tres años y voy siempre que me apetece excelente comida italiana, genuina, con un música (bastante jazz) muy agradable (ya que te permite disfrutarla y conversar tranquilamente). Ubicación perfecta y precio inmejorable. La pasta fresca maravillosa

I'll preface by saying the place is great. The food is delicious and the staff is welcoming (it's also relatively cheap, which helps). The restaurant itself feels authentic and cozy with small details peppered around the shelves and walls. Might be the best italian I've been too outside the actual country. I highly reccomend it.

Wonderful little Italian restaurant I stumbled on. Menu del día for 15 had many interesting choices for all three courses. All that I ate was delicious. My dessert was possibly the best baked cheesecake I've ever had. And the montepulciano wine was also delicious. Very good service, nice atmosphere. If I'm back in Madrid, I'll be going again.

Very nice Italian restaurant. Pizza with jerky was very good. Minor improvement: Less cheese in the middle that the base gets more crispy there. And the menu card had less on offer than what is here on the photos. The olives served as entree were outstanding!

Oliveto was good, I gave it 5 stars because I don’t want to bring down a good independent business’ rating, but I don’t believe we will be rushing back. Service was good—expedient but knowledgeable and friendly. Prices are mostly pretty fair. I guess the overarching sentiment is that the most flavorful item we had was the “carpaccio” and I put that in quotes because it is actually cured meat, I am guessing bresaola. It had shavings of a good quality parmigiano reggiano, delicious olive oil and cherry tomato halves. The eggplant parm was fine but needed more spark and was overpriced for what it was. Carbonara was ok, the bacon had the flavor of bacon that has been fried and then sat out for a while, a bit stale. Stuffed pasta with spinach was fine, just a bit bland. Tiramisu was okay, nothing to rave about. It’s a cozy atmosphere, but it just didn’t feel like a 100 euro meal.

Superb Italian restaurant. Small menu. We had all the starters. The Jamon was fab, as were the 2 burrata dishes. We had pasta. Carbonara was creamy and eggy and yummy. The Gorgonzola and pear parcels were all truffly and sweet. The ragu on flat pasta (I forget) was fennelly, the ravioli was lighter and more subtle. In all of the dishes the actual taste of the pasta still came through. I liked that the menu was small as well. The chef is making good decisions. We didn’t try any pizzas. The tiramisu was also excellent. And then we have a Donnafugata white and a Primitivo red. Both excellent. And only 20-25EU. Food was also not expensive. Nice waiting staff. Always booked up - unsurprisingly- so don’t expect to walk in and get a table. (Sorry - forgot to take photos of most things before we ate them!!)

Food was excellent. Waitresses were very cordial and did a great job. We had the Burrata w mortadella and greens for appetizers, Fagottini with Gorgonzola, and the Pappardelle with ham and porcini mushrooms. The food was superb!

Rowan Stockton

What a fantastic time we had. The best food I have ever eaten, the desserts were so good we decided to go for a round 2 and try a second dish. Considering the amount of food we ordered it was one of the cheapest meals we had during our visit to Spain. The staff were so lovely and kind to us. It such a welcoming and positive atmosphere. Extra love to Nico the manager and to the waitress and chef who's names we sadly did not get. I will never forget this dining experience and to the all the staff lots of love. Love from Rowan and Paige from Scotland! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿♥️🇪🇸🇮🇹

Quick and attentive service for our group of 7. The truffle pasta was amazing as well as the bruschetta. For my friends who got pizza, I heard only good things. Good wine selection, cool ambience, I recommend for anyone, but it is small so make a reservation beforehand.

We weren't able to make a reservation, but they squeezed us in. Small restaurant probably frequented by locals only. The food was excellent. The mussels were a tad bit salty but nonetheless excellent and delicious. The pizza was good, and so was the pasta. When the bill came, it was about 50 euros, which was surprisingly low for 2 people considering the quality of food and service. Really recommend this spot. Not your average tourist trap.

These delicacies are too good to be true. food, service and vibe are just perfect and a very reasonable price with big portion. Simply the best Italian food experience in my life. Every one should visit Oliveto when they visit Madrid.

Incredible pizza and good pastas are served at this cosy italian restaurant in madrid. You should also try the delicious pistachio lava cake! Would recommend making a reservation or arriving at opening because it does fill up.

Thomas Biedermann

There are lots of Italian restaurants, but the food at this one is spectacular. I felt like I was back in Italy. The pappardelle del chef was amazing. The pistachio coulant original and yummy. Excellent service. It's a small place, so probably good to reserve ahead of time. It came to €28 per person (including wine).

Jürgen Kestner

The dishes here are a joy. Very rich, flavorful and on point. It's hard for me to pick a favorite. The pasta, maybe the carbonara. A simple plate, but done to a level that cannot be understated. The staff is always warm and friendly and very accomodating.

Holy moly! What a find in the beautiful city of Madrid. Everything about this wonderful establishment was great the minute we walked in the door. Great service and was accommodating to our lack of Spanish speaking. You cannot go wrong with any dish on the menu. Amazing atmosphere and great Italian food. Enjoy!

10 out of 10. Small, attractive and authentic trattoria. Everything on the weekday set menu sounded attractive and there was loads of choice: a veggie first course followed by a pasta dish and dessert. Everything was great including the sangiovese house wine. Excellent value, friendly Italian owners and staff.... We have just been again for lunch in September and it was again excellent. ! have added some photos of the food....Just been back for lunch in July '22. Everything delicious as always....

Very cozy place with great food. The personal is very kind (one of them even remembered my friend was vegetarian and brought us some vegetarian starters. They also changed my order to a vegan-friendly one with any problem. Also, I love to see an Italian restaurant managed by Italians. In addition, the food isn't even expensive (around 10€ per pizza).I recommend this place 100%! Really great experience.

Excellent food !! Had one of the best sea food pasta ever. The same taste you will get in Italy. The staff are very friendly. The Chef came and served us our meal personally. Perfect ambiance. Must try if you need that perfect Italian taste.

Lindo restaurante, casero y auténtico. Meni fijo de almuerzo en 14,50 incluye todo, una pasta , un segundo , café , postre y bebida. Tamaño de los platos un poco pequeño, carbonara ok pero nada súper . Mucho mejor la pasta con mariscos. Trato del cliente inmejorable. Necesario reservar 🙌🏼

Un restaurante genial para poder disfrutar de una oferta diferente de comida italiana. Llevábamos tiempo con ganas de ir a disfrutar de su menú del día, si no recuerdo mal unos 15€ dos platos, bebida, pan y postre o café. Destacar que la comida estaba deliciosa (destacar los mejillones con un toque picante) y el trato del personal inmejorable. Si te apetece un restaurante italiano intimo y no sabes dónde ir, te lo recomiendo al 100%. Importante, el restaurante tiene pocas mesas, así que recomiendo que llaméis para reservar previamente.

Irene Shivaei

The food is very delicious, everything we got was fantastic. It is a pity that the restaurant has two dinner sitting shifts at 8:30 and 10, and they rush you to leave sooner if you are on the first shift.

No idea how this has so many good reviews. - We can’t choose single dishes. Only full course with starters. - There is no coffee AND dessert. There is only coffee OR dessert. - We got no bread. - My pasta was only warm… - … and it had different kinds of pasta inside. - Tiramisu was no longer available before 15:00. - Portions were too small. - Tables close and tight to each other. + Food was good but not that good + nothing else?
