    penne primavera
    Amy K.

    Cozy, delicious, & great service! On first glance osteria is charming with plenty of inside and outdoor seating. It also has plenty of parking out front. The menu have a variety of pasta and pizza options along with wine, dessert and appetizers. Our food came out quick and fresh and we even get house bread with it. Overall a solid Italian place to try out.

    Side of spinach... very salty.

    Very good food. The drinks took a bit of time to come out but the food was on point in timing. Food wise, the flavor is good though some dishes tend to be a bit on the salty side. I wanted to add more Parmesan but hesitated because the flavor was good and if I added more cheese it would tip the scale on saltiness. Our waitress did a great job for a party of 20. I would give a 5 star if the taste can be a bit, just a tad bit less salty.

    Shitty salad old and gross

    This was my second (and last) time eating here. Completely overrated, overpriced, and honestly insulting to Italian cuisine. The Caesar salad was watery, limp, and soggy, with wilted lettuce and stale-tasting croutons. Absolutely no freshness. The pepperoni pizza was awfulchewy crust, bland sauce, greasy cheese that tasted more like processed American slices than anything Italian. Nothing authentic about it. Even the so-called bread and oil appetizer had no flavor. Just oil with flakes tossed in. They market themselves as an Italian restaurant, yet serve food that doesn't even come close to authentic Italian standards. To make it worse, the walls are decorated with Paris picturesnot Italy! It's laughable, confusing, and almost disrespectful to Italians to pass this place off as "Italian dining." For nearly $30 before tip, this was a complete waste of money. Everything about this place screams fake and pretentious. If you're looking for real Italian food, look elsewhere.! Oh look they have 29 food violations

    We went for Mother's Day and unfortunately their AC was out. They had huge portable AC fans but it was still warm at 8pm. With that said, our server was fantastic and very attentive. We ordered the Vodka fettuccine, regular fettuccine, lasagna, and the huge seafood pasta dish. All were excellent. They make their own Tapanade for their complementary bread! I went wanting their Pappadele Bolognese only to be told they had a new head chef and no longer had it. So be aware if you're looking at photos to see what you want, they don't serve many of the items any more. We would definitely go back.

    So my Mother and I enjoyed our life by the food. We heard about this Italian restaurant that's probably been open for like a year or so and we really have been wanting to check it out so we did. Dropped easily $100. Was sat and greeted immediately. We ordered waters and a nice moscato wine for our dinner. Our server brought bread for the table and a pairing of olive tapenade which was absolutely delicious. Nice and salty and great ratio between the bread and tapenade. We ordered the bruschetta for our actual starter. The tomatoes needed to be marinated but they seemed fresh, not enough basil and not enough balsamic glaze. Just my opinion. I ordered the pollo frances and I must say it was not nearly enough chicken for the amount I paid. I love thin chicken but this chicken was pounded to the point of being pulverized. I mean, I honestly believe it was so soft and mushy that I could mistake it as ground chicken. It was so beaten that it indeed covered my entire plate. Dont get me wrong the flavor of the lemon sauce that came with it is what made me eat that chicken up. I LOVED the fried basil garnished on top totally made that dish just by the sauce and basil. I ordered the bolognese as my side dish and I was unhappy with my side. I love me a good Bolognese, but this was just so different. I couldn't even begin to describe the type of taste. It was very plain not enough spices not enough seasonings and definitely not enough salt. My mom ordered the chicken Parmesan which she said she absolutely loved. She's not a food critic like me, but I guess I would take her word for it. She loves food just as much as I do. To be honest, we talked a lot of shit about how we were not going to have dessert....go figure two foodies and you're damn sure we decided to order two things of dessert. I ordered the pistachio cake and I ordered the tiramisu for my mom and I to try. The tiramisu is store bought so don't let them try to fool you. I know exactly what food vendor they get it from so I highly recommend NOT to get it. It's not a good brand. It's from sysco and if you want to get tiramisu store bought go to the GFS store in Orlando, Florida, and grab their tiramisu. That pistachio cake was absolutely delicious although they could lose the raspberry sauce that they drizzle on top for garnish, for God sakes man.....just garnish with a raspberry and be done with it. Those designer sauces do not do any justice. I'm assuming the pistachio cake is store-bought as well but I do not want to assume but I definitely wouldn't sleep on it. It's pretty delicious. My total was $112. I believe it was worth going. I don't believe it was worth 112 bucks for my meal. I will definitely be back to try something different because I've heard great things about it and I did enjoy my time there. The company of my Mother was amazing. The food was nice and I have never really spent a lot of money going to eat or doing anything like that while growing up so it was honestly kind of fun to spend that extra money, drinking wine and having a good time. I'll be back. They do have the outside seating and the atmosphere inside was very nice as well .

    Had the best gnocchi I've had in a long time here. The gnocchi was perfectly cooked. We asked for it in a vodka sauce and they accommodated. Unfortunately that is the end of the good and now the not so good. The service was really bad. We were one of only two tables in the restaurant so it wasn't busy. We came in and heard someone complaining; which I guess should have been a sign of things to come. We hardly ever saw the waiter. The manager was pretty much the same. We ordered garlic knots and didn't get them before the meal. So we reminded the manager when he delivered our food. At the same time he asked if we needed Parmesan cheese and I said yes please. Well he never returned. We had to hunt down the waiter and planned to cancel the knots because now we were two bites from being done with our meal. He delivered the knots so we didn't make a stink. The knots were $4 and would have been easy for them to comp due to their mistake but the check was the full amount when it arrived. It's a shame. This place has so much potential. The food is great but the service was miserable. Mistakes happen but this wasn't a mistake. They were nearly empty. Looking back we wondered why they were so empty but I'm guessing the poor service might be why. It's sad because the owners have a great idea and restaurant but the workers simply don't care.

    We came here for lunch before heading to an event in the area, and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Our server was kind and attentive, and had just started working at the restaurant. The lunch menu is shorter than the dinner menu, but very substantial, with appetizers, salads, pasta, pizza, and paninis. We started off with the arancini, stuffed with ground beef and peas, and they were stellar--light, fluffy, and fried to a perfect crispy exterior. On my dad's recommendation, I got the chicken Parmesan panini, which was unlike any panini I'd ever had. They use the pizza dough for the panini bread, making it crisp, fluffy, and tender, and the ratio of chicken to cheese to sauce inside was perfect. The lasagna, despite its squashy looks, was delicious; I managed to snatch a bite, and the seasonings and balance were spot-on. We ordered a margherita pizza for the table, and it was well-made and tasty. Definitely try this place for lunch if you're craving fresh, tasty, and filling Italian--and unlike us, save some room for the limoncello mascarpone cheesecake dessert!

    Date Night!!! Movie then Dinner!! Yeah!! We had heard about this place and we were intrigued about it, since we both love italian food. We arrived amid a thunderstorm and were greeted nicely. The interior is nicely done, although I would have preferred cloth napkins at the table. The economy!!! Our server Cody was pleasant and attentive. They give you that delicious bread and oil with seasoning. I couldn't resist. It was half price cocktail night, so we opted for Manhattans. Right amont of everything in them down to the black cherry (some places give the maraschino cherry). I had the Mellanzona Parmesean Eggplant and hubby had Spaghetti Con Polpette with meatballs. Both were really good. So much we brought leftovers home. We had wine with this course. No dessert though!!!! We will definitely be going back to try other dishes.

    Chicken Parmigiana and fettuccine Alfredo and spaghetti and meatballs

    First time here and we will definitely be back! Service was great and the atmosphere was amazing. Soft music and great food!

    Was curious why an Italian restaurant in busy area wouldn't be busier I found out. First the Bread ! It Would be much better if warm not toasted. The olive oil dipping was tasteless needed Parmesan cheese/garlic and seasoning, the paste in it not so good after taste. The staff seems friendly. Took a little longer for the service I thought since it wasn't busy. They have a Clean nice bathroom. The music was nice. The place was kept up clean. The chicken Parmesan was so thin and over cooked burnt actually. The noodles were ok the sauce was watery tasteless. The pizza was not great the dough was soggy from the saturated watery sauce the best part was edges . I would not revisit this restaurant unless I seen pictures of improvement on the food we got. I'm a huge pizza fan this is not for me.
