Situated in the congenial East Bay neighborhood of Rockridge in the Market Hall, at the foot of the Oakland hills, Oliveto Cafe & Restaurant has a twofold identity: as a familiar Cafe -- hub of a busy neighborhood (downstairs) -- which serves informal foods and is open all day, every day; and as a fine dining Restaurant (upstairs) known internationally for its traditional Italian dishes made from local, seasonal products with the clarity of a great kitchen driven by respect for traditional cooking methods, continuing search for remarkable ingredients, and passion for intensity of flavors.
