- MMarkGoldCleveland / Akron / Canton •178 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe had a nice, special-occasion lunch planned and chose Oliver’s because of the expected bayfront view, food quality and nearby location. We found convenient on-street parking. The sky was cloudy but soon cleared, and our window seating gave us a beautiful view of the Erie bayfront. We enjoyed the shrimp & lobster bisque, blue crab ravioli and walleye sandwich. This is a good location for special occasions, especially when the weather is clear to enjoy the view.More infoOliver's Rooftop$$$$• American• Erie•4.7

It was a pleasant evening & the meals were superb, particularly the belly-on pork chop which was delicious & savory. the server was knowledgeable & friendly. The manager, Christina, was attentive to all diners in the evening. We would come back to dine here again on our next visit.
