    This place is very popular! We couldn't make a reservation (for five people) so there was a little bit of a wait. Thankfully, the outside patio was available and they provided snacks and drinks. The restaurant itself is beautiful, though they do not have the best air conditioning system... It was very muggy outside, which meant it was very muggy inside. The food was delicious, and they are very accommodating to dietary restrictions. Wait staff was very attentive even though they were so busy, which we really appreciated. Overall a really lovely experience. Would recommend making a reservation if you can!

    We had the best experience last night! We had a group of 18 people with several dietary needs. Because the group was so large we had a preset menu, but they made adjustments for those that had allergies or vegetarian. I have never had a restaurant accommodate individuals in a group like this when family style dining. All of the dishes were amazing. The flavors of all the dishes were outstanding and the presentations were beautiful. I wish now I would have taken pictures. The service was top notch and the ambiance was quaint and charming. In the corner they had two guys playing music. It was very subtle but added to the vibe of the restaurant. This place certainly gets 2 thumbs up and will be back!

    Oleana has become of my favorite restaurants in Boston. We did a walk in on a Wednesday and they were super accommodating. We had a drink outside until a table was ready, but it didn't feel like a wait because we could enjoy the very interesting live music! The cocktails were ok, the beer selection limited, although kudos for carrying non-alcoholic beer. I'm sure the wine is great but I'm not a big wine drinker. Ok, now the food is AMAZING! Super interesting. The Vege dishes were my favorites although everything was good. They are small dishes but still filling. And our waiter was helpful in helping us decide how to order. This is the cutest little place and I can't wait to go again!

    Very unique Mediterranean Restaurant. Not the common dishes. Small portions but very innovative and delicious. Parking is very difficult.
