If you haven't tried Cynar Old Fashioned yet, you are missing out. This unique artichoke-based amaro is bittersweet, herbal, and incredibly smooth. It hits all the right notes, making it the ultimate drink to sip slowly over good conversation.

Just ask your server for a pour the next time you drop by. You will not regret it.

The perfect finale to an unforgettable dinner.

Treat yourself to one of our cicchetti dessert: a rich Nutella cheesecake, topped with decadent chocolate ganache, and toasted hazelnuts for that perfect crunch. It melts in your mouth, and, once you try it, we know you will be coming back for more.

Did you know that at L'Olivo, you can find an exclusive Cicchetti Dolci menu to conclude your dinner? Now you do! See you next time.

In Italy, a meal doesn’t really end until you’ve had a digestivo. It’s a classic way to slow things down, help your digestion, and just enjoy the last few moments of a good night out.

One of our absolute favorites is Amaro Montenegro. It’s been made in Bologna since 1885 using a secret blend of 40 botanicals. The taste is what makes it so special: it’s perfectly balanced, with soft floral notes and a bit of sweetness that feels smooth and easy to drink.


If you want to try it for yourself, come see us at L'Olivo this week. We’d love to pour you a glass and help you wrap up your dinner the right way.
