A new concept brought to you by Shucking Good Hospitality, the team behind Blue Island Oyster Bar & Seafood, Oliver's Italian celebrates love, Italian Food and love for Italian food.

Oliver’s Italian transports patrons to an evening in an Italian garden while enjoying a fantastic pinsa (Roman-style pizza), fresh from their farm oysters and a negroni under the olive tree, celebrating love with your loved ones. 

The design concept for Oliver’s Italian tells the love story of Oliver, a young man with fond memories of growing up in Italy and enjoying his mother’s food in the garden. Oliver fell in love with an American girl, moves to the United States and opens a restaurant to share his mother’s recipes all the while writing to her to keep her abreast.

The large-scale light fixtures and centralized olive tree canopy were used to lower the feel of the ceiling to a more intimate scale, while helping to anchor the space with a focal point, and the string lights provide a nod to al fresco dining. The stripes of the tile, upholstery fabric and restroom wallcovering are a nod to classic Italian motifs.
