"The views from this seasonal lakefront spot on the Ohio Street Beach are nearly unparalleled. Sit in the shadows of some of the city’s tallest buildings and dine on sandwiches, burgers, light starters, accompanied by a solid selection of libations, including fish bowls. Pups are welcome to join the fun, too." - Ashok Selvam
"Caffe Oliva is a reliable outdoor restaurant on Ohio St. Beach. It’s kind of like ordering food at a hotel pool, with options like coconut shrimp, turkey burgers, and pita and hummus. Are you going to call all your friends after eating here to tell them about the food? Probably not, but it gets the job done when you’re too hungry to travel more than 100 yards from the sand." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
"Off the bike path at Ohio Street Beach, Caffe Oliva serves Mediterranean-influenced cuisine. It’s run by the same folks as the Dock on Montrose." - Sam Nelson
