    Tagliatelle Bolognese
    Mallory L.

    I was really excited to try this new restaurant that I kept hearing about on social media, and got reservations well in advance since they book quickly. It didn't quite live up to the hype though. We came on Tuesday and they were running their half off pizza deals so we went with the numero uno. Even their "large" pizzas aren't really that big, so half off makes it a good price point to try. The pizza tasted decent but for some reason reminded me of a cooked Lunchables pizza, especially the sauce, so that wasn't appealing. For my own dinner I ordered the bolognese, which was $21. The flavor was pretty good, the spices had an earthy undertone I can't really identify but it's also in the aforementioned pizza sauce. The dish also didn't have a lot of meat in it, so be aware. All in all I think it's a decent spot but there's so many other pizzerias in Columbus anyway.

    Their happy hour may be the best!! $5 glasses of wine, half off pizza and apps is such a great deal! Everything we had was super great and the food came out so fast. The two of us split a Caesar salad, numero uno pizza and spaghetti. Definitely will be back, service was great and the inside is cute and cozy!!

    As a certified bread connoisseur I must first say that the $4 bread service (focaccia) was extremely disappointing. I took one bite and was done with it. The Caesar salad was good, the dressing less creamy and more of a thicker vinaigrette. I enjoyed the flavor of the grilled chicken I added. The star of the show was the lemony ricotta sheets. Osteria's red sauce is superior, I genuinely enjoyed it. I would go back for the pasta and meatballs. The meatballs had good flavor but again the sauce really made them shine. If you enjoy Italian food I'd recommend you make a reservation and give them a try.

    Quaint little place in Old Town. Never been to Old Town before, but I've got to come back in the daylight. I don't think they can seat more than 40 people, but the food is fast coming out of the kitchen. We came in on a Wednesday night at 5:30 with a reservation. By 5:45 the place was full. We were seated, but waited what seemed like 10 minutes for a server. Once she found her way to our table, things went very fast. My daughter had an espresso martini and I had Blanton's Gold, which was absolutely delicious! We started with the focaccia bread and a Caesar salad. Both were very good. My daughter was raving about the salad, as it was heavily dressed. We also ordered the Numero Uno pizza. It was delicious, but could have used a bit more mozzarella, especially around the crust as the top of each slice was barren of anything other than tomato sauce. Regardless, I would not hesitate to return and try their pastas. We were back to our car and on our way to Jeni's in less than 45 minutes.

    Osteria Pizzeria just opened a little over a week ago, and let me tell you, you NEED to give this place a try as soon as you can! Everything about Osteria is spot on! The vibes and aesthetic are phenomenal; it's so inviting and cute and the perfect spot for a great meal with friends or for a date night. The service is excellent and for just opening when they did, I was incredibly impressed with how organized, speedy, and well executed everything was! The pizza first and foremost is so unbelievably delicious! The dough (which is made by scratch over a 3 day process!) is so light and airy, yet flavorful and is one of the best textured crusts I've had on a pizza! The Numero Uno pizza is a must!! In addition to the pizza; the garlic bread is phenomenal, especially with their house ranch; the meatballs are great, & if you're craving pasta; the tagliatelle is unreal!! All of their drinks are spectacular too and you already know they have an authentic espresso maker for the espresso in their martini!

    I was here when it was Yellow Brick Pizza, but this was my first visit to Osteria. I came with Jennifer R and we really enjoyed our service and food. And drinks. We got subs. My Pesto Caprese was amazing. I mean really. I would get it again. I wasn't going to get a drink, but I saw the little table card with seasonal drinks. I don't remember now, but it was maybe a Fall Flavor Manhattan. Very good. I def. want to go back. Great service and really pretty inside.

    Disclosure: I am not a huge pizza fan. I know un-American, right? But true. I was coming in thinking I wouldnt like it. I was wrong. We sat at the bar. The place was cute. Brick walls with white accents. Nice long bar with seating. Bar had neon lighting which added a funny touch. Andrew was our barkeeper. He was attentive, funny, and helpful... Plus made a mean drink. I ordered a drink I'll make it and afraid... Don't be afraid of the drink. It is wonderful as the perfect strength and it tastes. Nothing short of delicious. My husband ordered a PBR The menu has a lot of house crafted featured drinks, each one leaves you going oh and ah. So whichever one you pick -you will probably like. I ordered a half salad and it was still pretty large. It was delicious. I'm not gonna lie. I wish I've gotten the full salad. I like salad. They make their own dressings, which is always a plus the dressing was delicious . We ordered the pizza and a sub because we couldn't decide- so we got both. The pizza was very good. It was a chicken pizza with a pesto base, I don't love red sauce as I said above I don't crazy like pizza either . So saying it's very good is probably saying it's excellent. The dough was exceptional. The sub's bread had a nice crunch, but still remained light n fluffy on the inside. It even was was slightly billowy and I don't know how I did it. It didn't seem like there was an excess of bread. It was just perfect. The interior of the sandwich had a lot of meat and also a lot of cheese. Dare I say THE perfect amount of everything. Well all but there may have been a little bit too much mayonnaise for my liking but still it Didnt distract. Plus, I'm a weirdo when it comes to mayonnaise. I don't like a lot of it. I also don't like salad dressing so I guess I am just not a condiments person. After taking a bite of the sandwich, I quickly claim that entire half and push the pizza back to my husband and said you can have this. I'm eating this. That's not to say that the pizza wasn't good, because I did return for another piece and atena slice later at home-which is odd for me not liking pizza. Id say this is a must go to kind of place Yum

    This was one of those dining experiences where you want to tell everyone - because the food was so good, but you also don't want to tell anyone - because the food was so good. We walked in without a reservation, and I would like to keep it that way. It was busy the whole time we were there, so I think the word is out. I loved everything about it. Feels casual but elevated at the same time. Cocktails were incredible. They have a whole menu section of specialty espresso cocktails. Food came out quickly, but tasted like it had taken hours to make. We skipped the pizza and went with hot subs, based on our server's guidance. Meatball sub was one of the best I have ever had anywhere (including NYC). They had some seasonal peachy looking specials and desserts (peach cobbler). Next time I am getting dessert and there will be many next times!

    Went for lunch on Valentine's Day and was so pleased! We had the pasta Osteria, margherita pizza (+ pepperoni), garlic bread and more. Portions are huge and every single item was delicious. I'll definitely be back!

    Stopped here for dinner tonight to take advantage of the Tuesday half price pizza deal. This was my first time here. My husband had some co-workers recommend it. Our server was Echo and she was super friendly. We were told the pizza dough is made freah here on site. We built our own large pizza with bacon, mushrooms, garlic and ricotta. We also ordered the Italian salad and told Echo we would share it. The salad came out split into two bowls for us. I really liked that they did that for us. The pizza came out right after we finished our salads. It was very hot, right from the oven. The cheese was super gooey and fresh. I enjoyed every bite. I did feel the ricotta on the top was overly incorporated with herbs. I would have preferred plain ricotta over the herb one but the pizza was still amazing. The ambiance was warm and inviting with great decor and cool lighting. The place is not super big and every table was filled. We got the last available booth. I highly recommend trying this place. Oh, they did say they take reservations so maybe do that so you don't have to wait to long.

    Hot olives and focaccia. Black Manhattan and White Lotus
    Jackeline L.

    Osteria Pizzeria is a must try! The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The drinks were also excellent. They have a great variety of pizza to choose from but also can build your own. The caesar salad portion was great, was able to spilt between two people. Also tried the hot olives with focaccia and it was a perfect appetizer. My husband and I split the Numero Uno pizza and it was amazing. Super savory - the honey was a perfect touch of sweetness. Our waitress was super attentive and sweet! Great service and the ambiance is super fun! Highly recommend.

    Carry out
    Les R.

    Carry-out order. We heard the buzz about Osteria on Oak Street and decided to finally give it a try. I ordered online via their website (processed thru TOAST) and the whole experience easy and intuitive. Parking was a bit of a challenge but eventually found a spot. In the end, I could have walked down but didn't want to carry the food down six blocks. When I arrived, I was warmly greeted and had a friendly chat and off I went. Inside was clean and modern. For dinner, we enjoyed: Meatballs $15.00 Rigatoni Pasta Osteria $22.00 Tagliatelle Bolognese $21.00 Osteria is on the corner of Oak & S.18th in the former Mikey's LNS/Yellowbrick space. Pleas note there is credit card surcharge (3%) passed back to the customer. I would definitely recommend the pasta and will try the pizza next but don't forget the meatballs. Those were a great add on and glad we chose to order an app. Definitely will be back. Friendly service, and tasty pasta dishes.

    Italian Salad

    Had the best experience at Osteria! First of all, the little patio out back is cute! We started out there but it was so sunny and hot, we asked to be moved inside and they were so accommodating and quick! Drinks: the White Lotus drink is delish! It tastes sort of like a creamy lemon meringue pie. I loved it. Food: I got the foccasia bread and it came with a delicious fresh garlic spread. Maybe not the best for a date night, but I can tell you it would be worth it! I also ordered the spinning salad with chicken and it was one of the best salads I'd had in a while. Chicken came out piping hot was perfectly seasoned. I usually get dressing on the side but didn't this day, and glad I didn't. Perfect amount of dressing on this salad. Wouldn't change a thing. Croutons in the salad were also really good. Dessert: I ordered the affogato. If you like coffee ice cream... get this. It was incredible and the perfect serving size. Service: 10/10. Everyone was so nice and attentive. Literally cannot wait to go back! I'm gonna plan a girl's night starting there for sure!

We…read morespent over $80 on a to-go order that included two Gina's Gem, a big cheese pizza, and a salad. The pizza arrived cold but was still edible. Unfortunately, the Gina's Gem was nothing like what was advertised. I was expecting warm, crusty bread with a roasted cheese dip on the side so you could tear pieces of bread and dip them into the cheese. Instead, the cheese had already been spread directly onto the bread and toasted together. Because of that, the bread lost the texture you would expect--it wasn't crusty or dippable at all. It ended up soft, almost soggy, and the cheese was baked onto the bread rather than being a dip. The whole appeal of the dish was supposed to be the warm bread with the roasted cheese to dip into, and that part was completely missing. Included with the bread was a hot honey that missed the mark on being "hot" and some kind of jam. These options just made everything even more soft....which should have been impossible. The salad was actually the best part of the meal - even though it was a bit spicy. I've always had good experiences here in the past, so this was a big letdown--especially for the price. I just wish the to-go version of the dish matched how it's described, or that expectations were set correctly when ordering. Unfortunately, this experience made me lose all trust in ordering from here again. I can't believe we waited until exactly 3pm (when they opened) to order this.... At the very least the pizza should have been hot.

The sandwich was honestly the highlight of the meal. It was delicious, and the pizza dough as the bread was such a unique touch that you really don't find at many Italian sandwich spots around Columbus. The pizza itself was just okay. As you can see from the picture, the toppings weren't distributed very evenly, so some slices had mostly sauce with barely any cheese while others had way more toppings and cheese but less sauce. I also wish the pizza had been cooked a little longer overall because it was pretty floppy and doughy. One thing that makes it tough is that once the movie starts, it's hard to go back and ask for changes or anything since the theater is packed and getting in and out of the seats feels disruptive. We'll definitely be back to Grandview Theater because we love the experience overall, but next time I'll probably stick to the sandwiches and popcorn and skip the pizza.
