A Michelin Star Experience at Olivia Thanks to two generous and beloved, I had the chance to indulge in the fine dining experience at Olivia, one I will cherish for a long time. My goal is to bring everyone I know back to this exquisite restaurant to experience what Olivia has to offer. The key word of the day? Experience! Upon entering, the first thing that caught my eye was the cozy wine bar, perfectly placed to draw attention. On busier nights, it would undoubtedly be the heart of the restaurant. I also noticed a plaque celebrating Olivia's recent accolade: the 2025 MICHELIN GUIDE COLORADO SERVICE AWARD. Fresh off the press, it resembled a Yelp award--curious indeed! The menu offered a rare event, taking place only once a year for a limited week. I anticipated a hefty price tag for this unique dining experience. I appreciated the thoughtful arrangement of the dining space, with extra chairs removed to ensure each table was designated for individual reservations. It was a nice touch that emphasized their commitment to personalized service. The hostess--who seamlessly managed roles as server, busser, and Maître d'--hinted that they only serve dishes when they are perfection. The evening began with an exotic champagne specially flown in for the event, setting a luxurious tone. The sommelier skillfully introduced each wine pairing throughout the night, explaining the background of each selection before revealing the price tag: a notable $150 for the wine pairing. I couldn't help but wonder about the cost of the five-course meal. Overall, the food was delicious and beautifully presented, with impeccable timing between courses--neither rushed nor dragging. Once a wine pairing was finished, it was the perfect cue for the next course, executed flawlessly. Dining at Olivia was an exceptional experience, made even more special by their recently awarded 2025 MICHELIN GUIDE COLORADO SERVICE AWARD. Special thanks to S and H; I know you both read my reviews in stealth mode! read more
