Olivia Tapas

A group of friends and I went out for Tapas recently at Olivia Bar and Restaurant. We tried almost EVERY SINGLE item on their tapas menu. The verdict (from all of us) - "bland and nothing special." The only items we liked were the cheeses they recommended and the warm bread that it came with . The only other memorable item we ate were the dates wrapped in bacon. Literally, it was just dates wrapped in bacon...nothing more (you can do this yourself without the high price tag). However, we did liked the contrasting taste of the sweet dates and the slightly salty bacon.
Don't let the pictures fool you, they look tasty..but really, its just bland.
