Dès l'arrivée, l'accueil était déjà désagréable ("Oh, c'était quoi ?" sur un ton déplacé). Ensuite, en rejoignant notre table, les chaises étaient tellement collées qu'en passant, un petit objet est tombé. La serveuse m'a immédiatement crié dessus, avec des remarques humiliantes ("pas respectueux", etc.) devant mes enfants, sans chercher à comprendre ni à aider. Quand on sort en famille, on cherche un moment agréable -- pas à se faire rabaisser. On a préféré partir pour éviter une scène. Service honteux. Atmosphère toxique. Je déconseille fortement. If you enjoy being treated like a problem, this is your place. We walked in calmly as a family of four (2 adults + 2 kids) for my husband's birthday. Within minutes we got: a cold, disrespectful welcome, a table area so cramped you can barely move, and a waitress who yelled and embarrassed a customer in front of children over a minor accident. I left feeling judged and treated differently, and honestly, it was unacceptable. No warmth. No respect. No hospitality. I will not be back and I don't recommend it.

We ordered food through takeaway.com. Trying to order over the phone with the language barrier was…read moretoo difficult. (My French is a work in progress.) Food was done quickly. We ordered the steak and frittes, lasagna, carbonara, parmigiana cutlet, and 4 fromage with tagliatelle pasta. Everything was pretty bland. The best was the lasagna, which had lots of sauce and was a huge portion. The steak was very thin and cooked well done (hard to get a medium cook on something that thin), and covered in the green pepper sauce that was more like a peppery caper sauce. The parmigiana cutlet was layered with eggplant, ham, veal, and sauce. It was rubbery and bland. The carbonara was not what we expected as it was in a béchamel sauce. It was alright, but also bland. The 4 fromage with tagliatelle pasta was in the same sauce, so it seemed, and didn't taste all that cheesy. We'll try the lasagna again, and maybe some pizza.

It is hard for me to admit, but we came to Osteria 45 after 13 days in Italy, and Osteria had…read morebetter pizza than we had anywhere in Italy. The veggy pizza was covered with zucchini and eggplant, the ripest tomatoes, and lots of basil, just the right amount of onion and sauce and cheese. The crust was excellent. This is a very busy place with lots going on, so you have be make yourself known to get attention. We took our pizza out because they were full, so did not get to experience the service. It was pretty crowded inside. There was no outside seating.

The place is a family run restaurant, and we had amazing service and food. The pasta was fresh and the variety a plus - but the best pasta on the menu by far is the truffle mushroom pasta.

When we got to the restaurant, we were seated outside promptly. Our waiter was really nice and explained the menu to us. I don't usually like salads, but I felt like I needed some greens after eating heavy Belgian food. We decided to go with the mixed salad with ham, and I'm so glad we did! This salad deserves 5 stars honestly. The dressing was amazing, and the ham added a nice salty touch. For pastas, we got the spaghetti with spicy Calabrian sausage and burrata and the ravioli with osso buco. The pastas were definitely cooked al dente - I preferred the spaghetti. The ravioli had good flavor, but it was sitting in so much oil that I couldn't eat too many. It was a solid meal overall, but I didn't think the pastas were anything life-changing. Great place if you're craving some Italian food though!
