We discovered the new Oliva restaurant on Pushkin Street, very close to our hotel. We went there a few times during our stay in Kiev. We enjoyed their outdoor terrace, very good pizza and finally tasty grilled prawns with eggplant and zucchini. Being Italian we did not feel like trying the pasta but it looked really good. As other reviews... More

I have been to Oliva several times in different parts of the city. It has nice food at really affordable prices. When taking into account that one is not in Italy and this is a chain restaurant, I found the food enjoyable. I've tried their soup, the Greek salad, eggplant and penne and found them all nice for the price.... More

I was with my colleague in this restaurant somewhere near Red Army street - this is a chain of restaurants and they differ... This one was very bussy, very crowded and kinda claustrofobic. Like made for kindergarden canteen... Mainly this is pizza/pasta place and somewhat average. Service very slow and confused. For a hot day, a/c's should be turned on.... More

Due to the great tripadvisor reviews, we popped in here one evening, as it was close to where we were staying. It's a very large restaurant and I imagine it can get quite loud during weekends. When we arrived shortly after 6 it was very quiet. We both ordered pizza, which was served reasonably quickly by friendly servers, who were... More

I went there for breakfast with friends - we loved it. The atmosphere is cosy, the food is great, and the service is very good - not overpriced at all. It's not easy to find a place in the central part of Kyiv with a reasonable combination of price and value.

Tasty food, good selection of dishes, friendly personnel, better reserve your table in advance because the place is always full of people especially during lunch and dinner hours. Cannot agree it is good for a romantic occasion, too crowded, can be noisy and tables too close to each other. But just great to eat out with friends!

We hired this restaurant to secure catering for one of our corporate events. Food was delicious. Great pork chops and marvelous four-cheeses pizza. Tasty side dishes. Quite a surprise for this price level. Definitely white list of providers.

Excellent and very different foods - make all business lunches and dinners with friends there. You fill yourself as if in Mediterranean area.
