But they have prepared foods and a fryer so you can get a fish dinner, salmon, cakes, and a plethora of incredibly fresh seafood option. I'm sitting here waiting for them to fry my one piece fish dinner. Salivating the entire time and just admiring how much seafood is right in front of me. And the management is so delightful. I'm so impressed. This shop makes me want to move to Monroe Oh my goodness. A footnote: all the sweet treats like the baklava and the Halva are made by the owners relatives. I am stupefied at how delicious everything is. And I'm not even a tartar sauce person but I enjoyed this tartar sauce.

I tasted my friends mashed potatoes and theirs tasted normal so I have no idea what they did to mine when preparing it. It tasted like plastic and rubber gloves. The veal tasted good but they contaminate their food with random stuff. My father finished his water before realizing the reason it tasted so odd was because there was probably soap left in the glass. Don't get poisoned. I feel sick now from their food. Now they're getting only 1 star because someone is trying to harass and threaten me over this review. I went to this location in Monroe Connecticut for Easter and I was at this restaurant location.

The interior of this place is incredibly beautiful and so inviting. I sat at the bar and saw many items on the menu that looked so good. I was in the mood for seafood and really wanted their zuppa di pesce but didn't want a whole portion because I know I wouldn't be able to finish it. The bartender told me that I could order a half order which was incredibly exciting. I checked out the rest of the venue and the outdoor area in the back which was kind of magical. I tried a few mocktails, they were good, the coconut one was best. The dish I ordered was delicious, as well as the bread served with olive oil that had roasted garlic in it. I loved everything about this experience. I learned that they have an all you can eat buffet every Sunday for only 40 dollar. Can't wait to try it. Thank you Osteria!

The ambiance is still very nice. We went on a Monday evening so it wasn't very loud, but I can see…read morehow it could get so because we had a table of very loud women next to us. Can't imagine if we multiplied that by any additional tables. I just want to bring up the bread. Such a wasted opportunity to serve something so inexpensive that has such an impact on the overall experience. The bread is bafflingly bad. It's dry, and hard and tastes like nothing. The garlic infused oil that should improve the old stale bread is served with the hard skin still on the garlic. That's not edible and it's also not easy to remove once it's all mixed together. A small complaint about the lasagna. It's mostly cheese and very difficult to find any pasta among the soupy cheese and tomatoes. The taste is good but it's a bit of a rip off to serve something like lasagna with one or maybe two layers. The chicken parm was still delicious as was the polenta appetizer. Service was friendly and prompt. If they could just fix the bread and garlic situation and maybe bulk up the lasagna with some noodles, we'd be back.

Sad to see the hummus plate (a vegan option) wasn't on the menu this year - hope it comes back later in the season. Used to love the Caesar wrap as well! Drinks seem a bit overpriced, especially for the size ($14 for a small hard lemonade) - but hoping they're part of happy hour. Look forward to coming back, best outdoor eating in the area!

There were little kids on the dance floor and the place was mostly empty, with some people around the bar. Went to the bar and stood there for 10 minutes, no acknowledgement by either bartender, and one started to take inventory. I gave up and we left a few minutes later. Tried the food in the past, and it was delayed, missing a side, and not good. Im surprised this place has stayed open.

Have no problem with anything. BUT why do I have to drive so far to get a store with a pharmacy…read more I come from Ma & every single market has a pharmacy. I don't drive anymore due to my age & have a family pick up my meds. The local drug store where I live, well, they charge more on meds 'cause they're the only place to buy them.

The "robot" that is used for serving is like a tiered serving tray on wheels. My son had the ramen with miso broth and it was only ok.
