Despite the large crowd, everyone wanting to celebrate the holidays with friends and family while eating yummy Italian food, the staff at Oliverios handled it extremely well. Our server Morgan was unflappable as she went from table to table ensuring all her customers had everything they needed. The food was excellent as always. It was a very good evening at Oliverios.

The food, ambience, service were all great! For those who say something less, they forget it’s in a casino. Once inside the restaurant, it is quiet, the food is still one of the best sit-down experiences we have had anywhere, and the serving personnel were all friendly and welcoming. Enjoyed our anniversary meal there last night!

A festive night at the guesthouse. Dinner was excellent as usual. The special was ravioli stuffed with shortrib and shitake mushrooms. Compliments to the chef for preparing a great dinner. The guesthouse hosted a cabaret “songs on broadway” that included 4 talented amazing performers. It was a fun night that got one into the holiday mood. Oh, the guesthouse is decked out with holiday ornaments.

Great food, great service and a ringside seat for a fabulous fireworks display as part of Oglebayfest! The wait staff was terrific, we loved the shrimp and grits, and the outdoor patio was perfect. So far, best restaurant at the Oglebay resort. We’ll be back.
