He told us some about the area and then obviously information about the Minnesota grapes and growing season. This place was very clean. Nice gift shop. I'm not a wine snob but I do think I have good taste buds. They had some really good wine. For $20, you received 5 samples. They were nice sized pours as well.

There is tons of outdoor seating - which was awesome as well as games and other activities to do outside We then went into the restaurant and were seated outside for dinner. Service was a little slower but it was super busy inside - so understandable. Absolutely get the large soft pretzel with caramel. What a genius idea and we were All floored at how good it was. We each got a different pizza (fig, pesto, hot honey) and a salad. 2 were ordered gluten free but they made all 3 gluten free - so I cannot speak to how the regular crust is unfortunately which I was looking forward too. The flavors were all great and would order all again.

Great for any size group you bring and the delicious food and great drinks make this place a no brainer! Also they have a ton of unique in house sauces to get with anything. Their fatty patty and mango habanero are some of my favorite!

They deal with kegs if you order ahead, and they also have pop, energy drinks, and mixers available.

My group got in with only about 40 min until close and I really expected to be either refused or told to hurry up because of the time. I would have understood that too since no one enjoys being held late. What I found was a crew happy to greet us and telling us to take the time that we needed to make some first-time visit decisions. There were still a couple of tables occupied when we were seated but within about 20 minutes, we had the place to ourselves. Nevertheless, we were never told to rush and even when the check was brought to me, our server told me with a genuine tone, "no rush". The pizza is from a brick oven and is best characterized as having a crispy, cracker-like crust with a red sauce bordering on the sweet side of the spectrum. The portions and toppings were fresh, generous, and appealing to the eye upon delivery. Definitely no complaints about the food! I really liked that they have an affordable and approachable wine list. We had a bottle of DOCG level Chianti for $29. Sure, the wines on the list are not going to win any worldwide gold medals or be on a collectible list but this is casual pizza and not a Michelin starred destination. You might be able to go to a spot with a fancy expensive wine list every few months. I could go here a few times per week. Let that sink in. I have not seen a decent bottle of wine in a restaurant at the pricing I saw here in quite some time! Kudos to Olive's for being affordable! For a first time visit, I loved several things here. I would be happy to go back for their pizza and wine list. But I am most happy to go back to support their pleasant and professional front of house staff. They definitely deserve to be rewarded.

We randomly ended up in Excelsior and needed lunch and so stopped in here. Good service even though…read morethere were a lot of tables at lunch for just two people. Got the 15" size Chevrenth Heaven for a family of four. Server said we should probably get a salad as the pizza might be too small. Got the Greek Salad which was good, but the pizza was DEFINITELY not too small we ended up taking a lot home. Pizza was delicious and very unique. Cracker like crust. My wife's guilty pleasure is a goat cheese pizza that Target sells under their brand and this pizza was like an elevated version of that. Super delicious. Will definitely be back next time we are in town.

Compared with the other two wine stores I frequent (one big box and one independent, both in uptown), it's so much less friendly and the "consultants" seem less knowledgeable than me. The other day, I asked two ostensibly "wine consultants" about the difference between two producers of red Burgundy (at about the same price point), and neither knew. So I didn't buy either (but went uptown to another place where the consultant easily explained between two producers and then suggested an altogether different one, based on my preferences). Today, I did a pickup of my favorite plus some beer, went into the store, and the tall blonde woman was downright abrupt. Really, do better.
