Olivia’s Kitchen [Ball Sq., Somerville, MA]

On my way to Ciao pizza (yum!) last night, I walked past the location of the sadly missed Taco Party and was surprised to see that it is now a high end Italian restaurant named Olivia’s Kitchen. When did that happen? A quick glance at the online menu would suggest that it is pretty tony for Ball Sq! I will be curious to see what the early reviews are like.

I don’t have time to look for an open access version, but Willie’s just got a very favorable mini-review from Devra. We walked past on our way to Project Hail Mary a couple of weeks ago and it was already packed. Forget about ever getting in there now. Dang it.
