Summary
“Inspirational Sardinian food” and “wonderful pizza” (with 21 different toppings) are on the menu at Mauro Sanna’s smart Belgravia haunt (formerly occupied by its stablemate Olivocarne), which has a distinctive and chic (chilly?) monochrome design. There’s an all-Italian wine list showcasing small producers from Sardinia.

Oliveto Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Settling in to the new location, but it is an awkward space. Post Covid, the wine list is a bit less thrillingly stocked with interesting Italian, Sardinian, and Sicilian wines."
"It’s fine, and nice to be outside on the pavement on a sunny day. But for prices the food et al is rather dull Italian. Perhaps more a place for tourists given the clientele I saw"
