Olio Kensington Street Reviews | Rating 4.1 out of 5 stars (8 reviews)

Olio Kensington Street is located in Chippendale, Australia on 2/2/10 Kensington St. Olio Kensington Street is rated 4.1 out of 5 in the category sicilian restaurant in Australia. Sicilian-born, award-winning chef Lino Sauro (Gattopardo, Singapore) opened Olio Kensington Street in early 2017 to show Sydney why Sicilian is the new Italian.Olio Kensington Street (Italian for olive oil) is located in the beautifully restored The Old Rum Store with a contemporary indoor dining room and lush rooftop terrace overlooking Chippendale.Sauro comes from a long lineage of self-sufficient Sicilian farmers where he grew up with meals that were created with the quality produce grown on the property. This translates into Sauro’s menu with dishes that reflect a strong connection to his Sicilian roots and passion for fresh and sustainable produce. Keeping it in the family, Sauro sources his olive oil – the base of all his dishes – from the family’s Sicilian farm.

A perfect fine dining with friend. Highly recommend everyone order the set diner menu and with paring wine, it is definitely worthy for order. I have never feel that much different tasted before. Great experience, I had really wonderful dinner tonight. The last special cocktail with coffees was amazing for after a very sweet dessert. Friendly staff, great services.

Spacious restaurant with lovely ambience and lighting. Great food and portion sizes, well presented. Prices a bit high for what it was even with a special offer. Friendly attentive staff. Had to ask for a table away from a pillar and kitchen thoroughfare despite the restaurant serving 3 other tables at the time. Stair & elevator access available. Clean facilities.

We had such an amazing night at Olio! Andy and Alyssa were the magnificent staff taking care of us. They had amazing suggestions, were so professional and polite and seemed to anticipate our needs before we did. The food was heaven on your pallets. Make sure you order the scallops but the surprising star was the char grilled cabbage in the sides, so amazing!!! I highly recommend this restaurant.

I held a luncheon for 40 people on the Terrace and we all had a fantastic time. The venue was perfect, the food amazing and the staff were brilliant. Everyone texted to say it was the best! Thanks Olio, I will be back and recommend Olio to all my friends.

Ambience, food, drinks and even the jazz they played were all on point! It was perfect for a romantic dinner date. They kicked us off with sourdough and saffron arancini, both were delicious - the olive oil tasted expensive, from the owner Lino’s family farm in Sicily. Our first dish (and my favourite) was the kingfish tart. It was so yummy! Apparently some people find the pate a little heavy but we loved it so much. The crab squid ink pasta was next and the kitchen was kind enough to divvy it up into 2 shells so we could share. Also very yummy. Had the wagyu steak, which was my partner’s favourite dish. Had the swordfish roll last, also tasty. Dessert we had the almond semifreddo which I loved but my partner didn’t, we both agreed that there was far too much raspberry coulis though. All in all we loved the restaurant and would definitely recommend it!

Wow!! That was such a great experience. Bring served by Melissa was memorable and the food and wine backed up the service. Lino runs a great joint and is so warm and hospitable. I'll definitely be back with friends to introduce them to a new favourite Italian in town. I mean Sicilian :)

Wow what a great restaurant!!! I had the most memorable Italian experience. I am Italian, and finally I have find something that truly reflect our food and hospitality. I am absolutely in love with this restaurant and I won't hesitate to recommend this place to family and friends. Perfect ambient for an intimate/romantic dinner but also very accomodating in regards to large group. I had the pleasure to meet the owner Lino, a very humble person and very passionate . thanks.. I will be back!
