Parking: super easy. Service: Lauren was so cute and such a sweetheart. The kind of waitress that makes the whole experience better just by existing. Atmosphere: upscale yet everyone is down to earth. Food: Everything arrived piping hot. The chicken had a crunchy exterior with pops of juicy, flavor-packed bites that kept earning an audible "mmhmm." Fabulous value too! Two burgers, fries, and a drink for $33 before tip. My wallet and stomach were both very happy. Safe to say... we'll be returning! Thank you Oliver's!! read more

I wish I would have taken pictures. I went for Father's Day. I was kinda bummed because I've been wanting to check this place out for a while & didn't realize it was a limited menu for Father's Day. I had the breakfast tacos. The brisket was ok. The meal came with an abundance of things we didn't want. Like a giant caramel roll was the first thing they brought to the table. We didn't want that. Then there was a massive side of bacon, sausage & au gratin potatoes. Those sides did not go well with either of the entrees e selected. Kind of a waste to be honest. It wasn't very busy but service was slow. Idk if I will be back after this. The regular menu would have been better. read more

Real nice restaurant, very modern and trendy. Plenty of unique seating options, and they serve breakfast, lunch & dinner. The service was good, polite and knowledgeable. Decent sized menu, and they have beer of tap and a good wine & drink menu. Our sandwiches were both delicious, we both thought the sweet potato fries were better than their regular fries, but even those were tasty. We will definitely be back here again sometime soon! read more

We visited for my nieces 21st birthday and it was an underwhelming experience. I included the details about the birthday on our reservation but nothing was mentioned by the host or the server. The space is really beautiful, open and airy with many unique seating vignettes around the restaurant. Our server was nice but had little attention to detail. No knowledge of specials, kept asking if we wanted more water (I guess we're used to just having glasses refilled if empty). Nothing for the birthday girl. :( Not a huge deal but a little something would have been nice. The menu is really nice and offers a great variety but the food was just fine; nothing exceptional. Corn dip was probably the fave at the table. The restrooms are in need of a cleaning!! Not sure we'll be back. read more

Loved this eclectic restaurant which was recommended to me to try. The ambience, seating, decor and menu are next level. It's mostly an "American-esque" menu with a twist or little extra flair. They have a handful of locations across the metro area. We sat (party of 5) in this beautiful half booth and then two chairs on the outside. The drinks were delish and they had such a great variety of liquor options. I ordered a tuna poke bowl which I found out later is one of their most popular items on the menu. It was great and fresh but I could've used some more siracha aioli sauce cause that was delish! Cannot wait to come back and try some new options. Also as a side note - kid menu is in the drinks menu and the WiFi password is: morningnoonandnight read more

Absolutely love this place and have been here many times. Really the only nicer restaurant in the surrounding suburbs and so we greatly appreciate that it's open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I've had many items on the menu and loved them all. The pizzas are the best thing on the menu imo but today I got the sandwich special which was a shrimp po boy and it didn't disappoint. My dining mates loved the pork belly tacos (spicy!) and the ranch house chicken. Mocktails were all dynamite. Among the better ones I've had and the prices are not unreal as they are at some places. Service is always fantastic and we love the interior space. We now live super close and will be coming here all the time! read more

We enjoyed a quiet and cozy table with a large group after graduation. We had excellent service and enjoyed a delicious dinner! We loved the loaded tots, the brussel sprouts and the corn dip as appetizers! For dinner, I had the chicken bowl, but others in our party enjoyed the burgers, chicken salad, steak frites and the pot roast! read more

My fiance Garnet Letourneau & I had our first dining experience at Oliver's for a late night dinner date. The service was prestigious. The entire experience was absolutely impeccable and the food....oh my goodness! I ordered the gnocchi & added salmon. Garnet ordered the frepes with asparagus & French fries. We were both extremely impressed with the entire visit. Our server was Anna P. She was attentive and made our experience that much more worthwhile. I would HIGHLY suggest this restaurant to ANYONE! Honestly, it was quite possibly the BEST restaurant meal that I have ever had. Kudos to our server Anna P. as well as the chef/staff that prepared our meals. If I could add more judgy stars, I definitely would! Thank you again. read more

Our friends brought us here for dinner while we were in the area! Perfect spot to hang out and grab a bite! Located in an apartment complex, there is a shared lot with parking available adjacent to the restaurant! The interior is open, while remaining cozy! It feels upscale, yet approachable, with quality finishes that elevate the experience. Our server was fantastic the whole evening! I opted for the Fried Chicken Sandwich, which was a perfect take on the classic: juicy chicken, crunchy pickles, and creamy sauce. My favorite part was the chipotle aioli that came with the sweet potato fries: smoky with a hint of spice! I had to ask for more because I could have eaten that sauce with a spoon! If you're looking for great American food, I'd absolutely recommend this spot if you're in the area! read more

I have to say they are my favorite breakfast potatoes that I've had at a restaurant. They have nice crispy bits and they mix in some cheese and herbs. I added mayo to my bagel sandwich as I felt last time it was a bit dry. Next time I would want to order it with arugula as I feel it need some freshness. Over all service was good. read more

Oliver’s - Shoreview - Breakfast Bagel - Bars Near Me - Shoreview, Minnesota

This is one of my very favorite places for breakfast, and I return often because the food is consistently delicious. I highly recommend the Original Bagel Sandwich--an everything bagel with bacon, American cheese, and a fried egg--paired with Oliver's hash. The hash has outstanding flavor and is truly a standout. Another favorite is the Scrambler (scrambled eggs with bacon, scallions, mushrooms, peppers, aged cheddar, and Oliver's hash underneath). Again, the flavor is excellent. If you enjoy a little kick, be sure to ask for their homemade hot sauce--it's terrific. I believe the ketchup is made in-house as well, although it's not quite to my taste. My one consistent disappointment with breakfast is that the menu never changes. They don't seem to offer specials, and I would really love to see new items introduced--whether occasionally or seasonally. Adding some variety would make an already great experience even better. I've considered going for lunch, but the current menu doesn't quite draw me in. I tend to go to specialty places for pizza or tacos, and while I'm sure the soup is very good, I can't justify $17 for a bowl. There are burgers and sandwiches as well, but nothing that really stands out to me. Again, introducing lunch specials or rotating items would make a big difference and likely bring me in more often. The atmosphere is excellent--comfortable, inviting, and full of charming little nooks and crannies, along with bar seating. If having a booth is important to you, I recommend making a reservation. read more

I love going to Oliver's when I'm looking for a variety. It's a very cozy spot and I do enjoy how the place is spaced out and the vibes are great!

Oliver's is a very cute, cozy place with great food and service. We went here on a Saturday for brunch before my niece's baptism so we had a pretty big group. Service seemed a little slower since it was Saturday and it looked busy. Pretty much everyone in the group gravitated towards two things on the menu. The Huevos rancheros and Oliver's sunrise. One person in the group got the flapjacks. Kids got Mac and cheese from the kid's menu and eggs. They devoured their food. The Huevos rancheros was delicious with avocado, salsa, refried black beans, queso fresco, chipotle aioli, over easy egg all set on top of crunchy tostada. Every one finished every single bite of it. The Oliver's sunrise is a big portion with eggs any style, bacon or sausage, toast and Oliver's hash. Every one seemed to enjoy it and had left over. The flapjacks were delicious I was told. We all had a great experience and I'm looking forward to going back for dinner sometime. read more

We arrived on a Tuesday, in the late morning. The restaurant and location are very nice. The decor and space is great. Apparently, reservations are recommended as the hostess was not very happy that we did not have reservations. We were seated at a table which was about as big as a postage stamp. Actually, I think I've seen bigger postage stamps! At first our server was attentive. However, it seemed like we wore out our welcome because he didn't come back to clear our dishes or remove glasses (again, table was smaller than a postage stamp!). That being said, the food was brought out quickly and was very good!! While we visited in November and the patio was closed, it looks like their patio may be 'dog friendly'. I would like to return in the spring (with a RESERVATION!) to see if we have a better experience the next time. read more

A friend and I had lunch at Oliver's last week. I would describe it as "sleek & sunny". The parking is in an inner courtyard, so keep an eye out for the sign. The Drunk Hunter bison burger was very good! Juicy and flavorful. Medium rare exactly how I ordered. We split an order of Brussels sprouts. The gochuchang-balsamic reduction was spicy and so savory. My friend ask for goat cheese sprinkled on them. The kitchen accommodated that request. Her idea perfectly complimented them. I will certainly come back. Probably for coffee and bakery on a Sunday morning. read more

This place stays busy, and its easy to see why people meet here for a casual meal. The space feels inviting, seating was quick, and the service was smooth. The food had some standout elements, and the overall vibe made the visit enjoyable. Still, not everything worked. A later stop for dessert and coffee fell flat limited drink options and treats that didnt quite deliver. We've also had uneven takeout experiences with long waits and food losing its quality. Even so, the spot has enough positives to come back, though it can be hit-ormiss depending on the timing. read more

Popped in here on a Sunday night visiting MN for the first time. Was craving a pizza and their pepperoni pizza was so good. I could see the cooks putting the pizza in a brick oven. Crust was perfect. Not too thin or thick. They had a nice drink menu. Husband loved his old fashion. I don't remember what I got but it was yummy!! They were packed! Server was sweet and packed up our leftovers for us. Neat little place. We have intentions of visiting MN again but would come back here in a heartbeat. read more

An impromptu trip took me here. I didn't know it was on the lower floor of condos. I'm surprised everyone who lives here hasn't gained 100#. I got here about 10 not crazy busy yet there was a big discussion as to where they wanted to seat me. Lots of reservations it seems. I got the sunrise breakfast. I love the large stone round plate that fit everything without it all piled up. The OE eggs were perfect even though at first glance they didn't appear that way. A large piece of sausage that I swear was maple. The star was the crispy hash potatoes, no ketchup needed. Get this the white sourdough was the best piece of toast I ever had. All washed down with a delicious iced tea fresh brewed of course. I spotted a chocolate ganache cake for tonight's snack. Served in slices. I needed to use the bathroom at the end of the room and near it is a huge round table that seats a lot of people where everyone can be engaged where one guy was holding court. I love how you can get breakfast or lunch anytime from 8-3. Across from me some folks were having lunch. I got very lucky with Rheanna my fabulous server. This is a rare exception where there is a large menu, yet everything is good. An easy place to get hooked on. read more

Seating is always at a premium. We needed a booth and they made it work! Our server was attentive, and a bit busy. Fielded our questions and delivered as promised. Love the cozy booths, but high top tables are tough for our elderly mom. Had the chicken wings dry rubbed, omelette with breakfast potatoes, and a chicken bowl. Overall a 7/10. Thanks for fitting us in, solid service and for the good meals. We'll be back! read more

This is such a busy place. I can see why people would meet here for a meal. There is a beautiful bar and plenty of seating. We came in on Friday at lunchtime. We didn't have trouble being seated. Service was friendly and efficient. My husband had breakfast tacos and I got Avocado toast. I loved the tomatoes they were the highlight for me. The bacon on my husband's breakfast tacos was thick and cooked just right. My husband had been here before for a business meeting. He thought I would like it and I sure am glad he brought me here. read more

Again, if I could give 3 1/2 stars I would. Oliver is doing a lot of great things and there are some minor areas of potential improvement. I have been here for dinner and now I thought I would try breakfast after getting off of night shift. The first time I came here, I got the pot roast. It was good. Not fantastic, but good. On the dry side, it really needed more au' juis that came with it, and so I asked for extra. Service was good, the ambience is kind of like a cross between a contemporary American restaurant crossed with a coffee café shop or something. Happy hour looked to be quite generous, with food and a variety of drinks that actually are worth discount if you came during those times. I think they are 3 to 5 PM and then something like after nine or 9:30 PM?? the drinks are creative, well-balanced, and some thing that you could not get at a normal restaurant and bar. Another time, I came here after completing a night shift for breakfast. I got the eggs Benedict, with the salad and a side of bacon, and the bloody Mary with house style mix. The bloody Mary came with a skewer, full of lots of yummies, including cheese, pickled items, salami, and other the obligatory celery stock. The bernais over the eggs benedict had a distinctly unique flavor, which I still have not decided is good or bad, that was herbal, like in nature, and nothing like I've tasted with eggs Benedict before in my life. Nevertheless, the egg was perfectly poached with a runny yolk, And honestly? The salad dressing was so good. It was just a great complement to the savory numbness of the Benedict. Again, so why three stars, and not Fore? The ingredients and quality are there, but proper executions of dishes are lacking. A little mistake here, overcook the meat there, a funky taste, that is unexplainable, and these little things add up. It seems to be a trend that restaurants in the twin cities have all of the trapping and resources to be a great restaurant, but lack the actual management and culinary talent to pull it off. read more

I stopped in on an off chance of good food. I was not disappointed. A great omelette and perfectly cooked bacon at 1 in the afternoon. The service from Josh at the bar was fantastic. So good I brought my wife back the next day for lunch. We live two hours away but when we are in town we will try to stop in. One last thing I enjoyed the food and staff so much that we have a group of around 15 we will be taking there for dinner at the end of April. Great job, I don't say that much and I eat out a lot. read more

I struggled to go with a three or four star rating. Service was a three. Food maybe a four. Ambiance a strong four. It has the feel of a place that is missing something. A suburban restaurant trying to be urban and contemporary but missing the mark. I had the Mushroom Gnocchi which was very good. I would order again. My spouse had the Chicken Bucatini. We would not order the Bucatini again. More spice than we care for and lacked flavor. I hate to be to critical because Shoreview is short on restaurants and this is a good option for local residents. read more

I drive by this place often and finally decided to order some food to go. Was very intrigued by their garlic mushroom pizza. I was hoping it would be a little different then what I received, but it was still good. Was hoping for something similar to the old UNO mushroom pizza. This had the taste of sauteed mushrooms in butter put on a pizza. I didn't taste a ton of garlic, but it was still good. Good crust. Also ordered some chicken tenders and fries for my kiddo. Not your typical tenders. These were really tasty! Parking is a bit of a hassle, not a place you can just easily park, you have to drive all the way around and park in the back. Not easily accessed, but not the biggest deal. Would venture back to try other items. read more

After dinner my friends and I wanted to go somewhere for drinks and dessert! One of my friends suggested this place and she is now my BEST friend haha There is plenty of parking in the back.

We didn't know that, so we got a spot at the bar (very lucky since they were busy!) The desserts we got were absolutely luxurious and soooo good! The drinks we got were smooth, chilled and were truly a treat! I am counting the days till I get to go back! This is honestly a gem in Shoreview! read more

Really disappointing experience Saturday night. Service wasn't great but that happens from time to time and experience always helps. The bigger deal was the food. The MOST important part and what a fail. They have changed their pizza dough from pretty solid thicker crust to a poor heggies impersonation. So sad and what a bad value. (Don't get me wrong heggies is good late night at the bar but...it doesn't cost you $60 for 3 pies) read more

Food was great ! But service was TRASH! When we arrived the people at the front looked like they didn't want to help us, and then proceeds to hesitate to take us if we didn't have reservations. As a POC I'm very disappointed. Our server didn't introduced herself, only found out about her name on the receipt, Angela S. NO CUSTOMER SERVICE involved AT ALL. The only person who actually acknowledge us was the man who brought our food out to us. Super nice. If you're a POC, I'd avoid. read more

Met up with a couple of friends for dinner and drinks at a place that almost never disappoints. We love to sit at the bar and everyone is always very friendly.

Awesome burger but had to get a second order of fries as the ones that came with the meal were cold. That's an exception to the rule of good food!

Don't be fooled by just the pictures displaying their awesome food.. make sure you experience it. Yes, you can watch them make pizza, but the true diamond is the bar, with a special shout out to Hamdi who has been their bartender since they opened. Yes, many can pour a perfect drink... but Hamdi brings his smile, warmth, attention and entire service showing the care and appreciation that you chose Olivers to spend your money and time. .... So thank you for your years of service Hamdi making our days brighter and better. True bartending is about what you bring to the people, us the customer...otherwise it's just a surface. No wonder you have been award winning. This man deserves a raise!! PS.. If you're there tonight it's some type of birthday for him... so appreciate he spent it with you and enjoy! read more
