Olivia opened the doors for the first time at Aker Brygge in Oslo in 2006 with an ambition to offer the best flavors from Italy. The menu that is the core of all Olivia restaurants is stone oven baked, thin, crispy pizza, classic pasta dishes and antipasti.

We provide the best Italian produced commodities and wine from smaller, family-run producers in Italy. All Olivia restaurants are unique and inspired by our Italian favorite cities, and in our restaurants - you will feel at home, and still be able to dream away to Italy.

We work every day to be, not only a great experience for our guests, but also a great place to work for all. We are very enthusiastic about the future and look forward to taking Olivia to new adventures in the years to come.

Our work culture is value-based. We are characterized by a strong sense of community, as well as pride in having established ourselves as one of Norway's most popular restaurants.
