OH LA VITA |
Monday (14/7/15), Still in Ramadhan Month, where all the muslims in the world are fasting including me, hehe... so I want something good and less money for my fasting break food. And I searched on GOOGLE is there any place that fit as my request :). And found one that insterest me, OH LA VITA (OLV) that addresed in
JL. TIRTOSARI 11, SOLO, behind OBONK STEAK. There was interesting review on the their twitter (@OhLaViTa_Resto). So I decided that I'll go there.
After I arrived my first impression was "It was small resto" but may be it was suit with their slogan, The Cheapest Italian Resto In Town, Right Now! but I hope the service isn't cheap like their menus, tehe.. As you should now, in their crowded time like "fasting break time" you must reserve first, if not you'll get disappoint because there is no empty seat anymore. You can reserve on their twitter
@OhLaViTa_Resto or by send sms to 08156737397.
The decoration is quite good in the outside, I loved their terrace. But too bad, it was too stuffy in the inside. The room is too small with a lot of people. Enough for the commend and now its time order the menu!! ( I Was Hungry You Now!!! haha). When I ordered the menu too bad, the waitress was less friendly, even thought it wasn't crowded yet (look the picture above). But there is something good to their service, the manager. Yeah the manager managed cashier and all the waiter, and how he managed it was good. Its quick and efficient.
I ordered so many food ( like I said I was Hungry!!) like Lasagna Verde, Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Soup, Spicy BBQ Giant Steak, Chicken Salad with Thousand Island, Meat Lover Pizza (half size), Ice Lemon Tea and Milkshake Vanilla. Like I said I ordered many food because I was hungry........ hmmm...actually it was for two people ( I come with my wife, hehehe).
When fasting break time was arrive all the dishes have all serve, their time management was good. And now for the food. I tasted Mushroom Soup first, wow its really creamy and have nice taste. It has big cut of chicken and mushroom so you can feel it, its really cheap because you can have it just for IDR 9K. After the soup I tried my Spicy BBQ Giant Steak, but it made me disappointed. The meat isn't tender at all, I really need much effort to eat the steak. The one thing that good is the onion ring, it was really crunchy, I really loved it,, so by overall of the steak I won't recommend it.

Spicy BBQ Giant Steak - IDR 36.000 |
|
Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Soup - IDR 9.000 |
Then the meat lover pizza, its yummy. It was a thin bread pizza so it was crispy, it was so good. You can feel the the meat and cheese that blended together in your mouth. Awesome... I loved it so much ( even thought the mozzarella is less and use more cheddar cheese). The lasagna has quite big portion they put cheddar (again) on the top of it, for the inside is less meat and don't has cheese inside ( I think they reduce the cost by reduce the ingredients of their food). So the taste of the lasagna isn't satisfy me, it just a layer of pasta and tomato puree.
|
Meat Lover Pizza (1/2) - IDR 21.000 |
|
Lasagna Verde - IDR 24.000 |
And for my last dish is Chicken Salad with thousand Island. It was consist of lettuces, carrots, onion, and big cut of chicken that mix with thousand island sauce. It was quite good because the taste of the chicken is good but I hope they put more thousand island :). For the drink is quite standard a lemon tea and vanilla milkshake that you can order in anywhere.
|
Chicken Salad with Thousand Island - IDR 10.000 |
|
Lemon Tea - IDR 5.000, Vanilla Milkshake |
You now what from all of my order I just have to pay about IDR 125.000, it was quite cheap for the italian food. I think their slogan is right, the cheapest italian restaurant in town. So If you don't have much money and want to taste italian food, I'll recommend you for come here. :)
