Oh my god, it's the best Italian food I've had! If I could give ten stars, I would. Chef Angel is AMAZING! He was very nice. My husband and I always go to the DeKalb Market, and I've been dying to try this place, and I'm so happy I did. The entire staff was so friendly. I could taste how fresh the pasta was. I enjoyed watching my food being made. I've never been to Italy, but I bet the pasta tastes like the penne la vodka I had at Osteria. The vibe was super chill. I ordered penne al la vodka with chicken, which was delicious!!! I had never tasted a vodka sauce like that before. It was so creamy and had so much flavor. I cleaned my plate and never ate so fast (lol). My husband ordered shrimp Alfredo, and it was delicious. I told Angel the food was terrific. He gave me and my husband a complimentary dessert. It was so good!!! Everything was delicious, and I can't wait to go back. The food isn't even comparable to the food in Little Italy. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Specials Menu (August 2023)

Osteria Brooklyn @DeKalb is already off to a great start and I'm happy to have it as it as a new food option in Dekalb Market Hall. I am a frequent visitor to the OG Osteria Brooklyn location in Clinton Hill and I love that they mostly share the same menu. I think Osteria Brooklyn @DeKalb has specials that are different from Osteria Brooklyn but said specials are worth a trip to this new second location. Food: I shared the Shrimp + Mushroom Truffle Risotto with a bestie and we, devout seafood pasta orderers ;), LOVED every bite of it. Both the shrimp and risotto were perfectly cooked and the truffle sauce was subtly delicious. The mushrooms were also great but I would have loved for them to have a char or crunch so there would be more diversity in texture on my plate. Drinks: The semifreddo was great. It was tart but refreshing and I enjoyed how much the Blackberry flavor came through. Decor: Osteria Brooklyn @DeKalb snagged prime real estate in Dekalb Market Hall as they are located right near the elevators and in front of the escalators that lead up to the Fulton St entrance. There are about 6 two-seater tables in front of their corner but they have many seats along the bar as well. Each side of the bar / stove could probably seat an additional 8 people. I also like that the bar seating feels like chef's table seats. When the food's spectacular, that's always the best seat in the house lol. Service: The service is lovely and prompt. They gave a great drink recommendation and checked in on us frequently. Overall, I'd highly recommend this place and I'm excited that it's finally open!

Everything about this experience was spot on ! We were greeted by friendly waitress, our food didn't take forever to come out and everything tasted delicious. Now keep in mind its a casual place because its one of the food vendors at Dekalb market but that did not change the quality of the food we had . Would definitely come back

10/10. Pasta is made fresh. Drinks are flavorful. I love eating full meals at a bar type setting. This place is located in a food court so I will mention that their seating is in high chairs.

Insalatina di Spinaci

Delicious vegetarian salads, and hot food, good portion sizes for the price. It's fancier than most places at this food hall, with counter service and real crockery, but not that much more expensive. Really kind staff that go the extra mile for customers.

Best restaurant in the food hall! Made fresh so took a little longer but we ordered to go and the food was piping hot. The gnocchi and pasta were cooked perfectly and melted in your mouth. If you like truffle, the fettuccine osteria with pink noodles or gnocchi ricotta are incredible. Prices are a little high but comparable to the rest of the food hall and definitely high quality Italian.

Penne Vodka
Jackie K.

The pasta was really expensive for very little food. They at least could have put a parmesan packet in the bag. The sauce was watery. The staff took forever to take the order and then to serve it.

Fettuccine Alfredo with Shrimp
Imani W.

The food-... if you are a extreme pasta lover (such as me); then this is a wondrous place to for you to visit and dine at. Eat & experience the diversity and tastes Italian food has to offer! From Penne delicious vodka pasta- to the cheesiest of Alfredos. The employees are so sincere and caring to ensure that your experience is one to always remember! Most of all many thanks to the employees of Osteria Brooklyn, definitely ( Cintia & David.) They make my experience eventful every time, and always uphold the integrity of what they represent.

Calamari

Great staff and service! It's a busy place for sure! Pasta was cooked perfectly - Al Dente, but the meatballs were little salty and somewhat tasted old. It's located by Trader Joe's - casual dining.

Tiramisu
Hulgrid G.

Cute Italian spot right when you enter Dekalb in the escalator. It was too early, but the Aperol Spritz sign caught my eye made a note to check it out later. After having lunch, I popped by and ordered the tiramisu and had a ball. Loved the presentation and the service was so polite/the gentleman at the cashier was so chipper. Great dessert; it was light, delicate and had the perfect amount of moisture from the espresso. 10/10 dessert, I would come back for their pastas and antipasti dishes.

Shrimp and mushroom risotto

Amazing food and service, everything is so fresh and delicious... and the staff make the difference... Thank you Cinthia, Jackson, Angel e Alfredo... you guys are amazing...

I've made it a point to visit every vinyl listening bar that I learn of in town, after enjoying the shared experience of someone curating a select vinyl list in intimate spaces in Tokyo. Few have been able to replicate the experience, but Honeycomb Hi Fi Lounge comes close. That the space is narrow with just a few seats along the bar and a few tables mimics the Japanese experience best, where you can almost have it so the whole room is having one conversation together. The music is the focus. The cocktail menu is rather simple, and my Stormbringer drink, with dark rum and ginger beer was not anything to write home about, but $15 is pretty low for cocktails these days so I'll take it. If they introduced new cocktails to the menu with more interesting ingredients I'd be more inclined to return, but the vibes overall are pretty good and the staff really nice.

When the bar had multiple empty tables?) to asking us multiple times how many drinks we planned to order, then getting clearly frustrated when we sipped on our $25 cocktails slower than he would prefer. To top it all off, he spotted a deck of cards in my open purse and came over to tell us that "this isn't a board game cafe, you need to leave if you want to do that" Very strange attitude for the location and vibes of the neighborhood, save your money and go down 5th a bit further to find cocktail bars that actually want patrons!

One of my favorite bars ever! What a cool place tucked away on the second floor of Gage & Tollner…read more Their menu is so fun with levels of intensity to them. We went on a Friday night with a party of 3 and did a walk in. That was a risky move and to our luck, the hostess was so sweet and squeezed us in as the last party of the night! This is a must visit when in downtown Brooklyn. We couldn't try the food since the kitchen closed and we were the last to enter but we were able to try 3 drinks and I recommend them all! 1. Donkey Conga ($22) Bourbon and aged cachaça centrifuged with Banana. Followed by Cynar & sweet vermouth. 2. Manta Ray ($22) Coconut cocktail of apricot, ginger, and mint. London dry gin & Haitian Rhum. 3. Star cycle ($18) Shakened milk washed gin, Jasmine, and grapefruit

The stars finally aligned this winter and I had the opportunity to try it out. The vibes are perfect. Fog and bubbles, sea noises and all of the art go together seemlessly. Drinks were great. We had three and left suitably sloshed for the night with no aftereffects. We didn't have too many bites but the food was very good for a bar. I'm excited to go back and I hope we have just as much luck getting in next time.

It's this almost speak easy vibe behind big dark doors, you enter into a quaint space with small cocktail tables for seating and bar room. The cocktails were simply outrageous. Crafted to perfection with potion bottles used as finishers (yes potion bottles for their perfect witch craft making bartenders!) I think I enjoyed the bartenders work ethics as a concept the most. Sure the place was hitting the nail on the head for any speak easy, specialty cocktail seeking person's dream. But the fact that the bartenders were straight ripping through putting out eclectic drinks, with a smile on their face that was genuine was most impressive. I want to go back not just because I'm in the area. I'll go out of my way for this one. Nice job Sweet Polly!

I got an amaretto sour which is my usual, and they went very traditional and even did some cute hearts on top! Fabulous! My only complaint was that for the place not being busy at the time, it really took way too long for things to come out. 15-20+ minutes for drinks. They do offer water which was nice.
