Third time at BM Olea and the experience was very nice each time. Great food, good service, very nice location. Probably one of the best restaurants in Varna area!

It was my third visit at the place and definitely the least enjoyable one. Our waiter definitely lacked proper customer service training. He was trying to say some jokes which were not funny at all and we could go without them. Overall the food was...good. We were a group of 7 and had some small issues - one of the salads had a little spider (still alive) between the salad leaves; one of the mains was served cold and a portion of fried fish was forgotten. The waiter brought a new salad but for the cold meal the only offer was to warm it up. Although we mentioned all these things we were not offered anything. The general atmosphere of the place is very nice but the service has definitely went down. Probably it’s because it’s got too popular and can’t make it for the number of people that go there. If they want to serve that large of people, maybe they should employ some extra staff both in the kitchen and waitersMore

Awful service. Extremely rude staff. We booked the table for 16:00, but later they told us that OUR TABLE is booked for other people 20:00 and we must leave. Waiters don't want to do their job. Rejected to cover with a tablecloth our table (all...other tables have one). Service is VERY slow and rude.More

The restaurant is a little way out of the city and offers a good selection of meals at reasonable prices.

We visited BM Olea restaurant with my family for a dinner.Тhe food we ordered was served on time and well arranged.The staff is of average professional level, but very smiling and polite.Very bad impression made a many flies in the restaurant, which is unusual even...for Bulgaria.And something else!!! The Italian cheese Burаtа in the salad was spoiled.Of course, the waiter replaced it, but the bad impression of this omission of the cook remained.Adding and unimaginable noise from a group of naughty children I would not recommend this restaurant to my friends.More

Really cozy place, with an inspiring interior. Very delicious and fresh food. Desserts are made there. Visiting this place during the summer - keep in mind to reserve table day before, and ask for the garden table. Servers are professionals and very polite.

Unusual location but worth negotiating the Parking! A good selection of Menu, they ‘age’ their own meats! Food is good and reasonably priced. Service is good, Bulgaria is known for ‘difficulties’ with service in my experience, but, the staff are friendly and helpful. Worth booking...a Table. Looking forward to our next visit!!😊More

I have been to Varna 4 times now. Last night after a few spins around the go kart track I popped into Olea with some friends - Wow! It is a beautiful oasis with stunning views and a tranquil garden which feels like you might...be in Provence. The food was delicious and I could happily see myself whiling away an afternoon there with small plates and a beer. This place deserves a far better rating on Tripadvisor and I urge any of you who are unsure to give it a go - you won't regret it.More

We visited with 15 friends for a dinner. All we ordered was delivered on time and was quite delicious. Two remarks - sea shells portions are very small compared to everywhere in the town and at the very end just before leaving the waitress very...impolitely complained that we're staying after working hours without making any note before. So till then it was perfect, but when the final is like that, bad feeling remains.More

Really cozy place with an inspiring interior. Waiters are kind. Service is relatively fast. The music is Italian. Chefs are very good... The food is really delicious. Try homemade ice cream and barbecue suggestions. And sit in the garden with the fountain, if it's warm...outside.More
