All about Oliva Enoteca in Mérida, Mexico

Oliva Enoteca is one of the finer dining places in Mérida on the restaurant row (Calle 47). Pizza and pasta, tomato sauce, basil, mozzarella, olives, bruschetta, Parmesan cheese? There aren't many good Italian restaurants in Mérida.

One is Gran Pizzeria La Tratto Montejo with locations in Parque de Santa Lucia and north of Mérida. And Oliva Enoteca, with its spacious, modern ambiance and cocktail bar (with a view of the open kitchen), is undoubtedly also one of them.

In fact, it's best to book a few days in advance if you want to be sure of a table. As befits a top class restaurant, there is a very extensive wine list with over 200 white and red wines from all over the world.

Cooking is done according to traditional and original recipes, combining imported ingredients from the respective regions of Italy with fresh local products. In addition to its own website, you can also find Oliva Enoteca on Facebook and Instagram.
