The girlfriend and I decided to get dinner here, after spending the day in museums throughout Mexico City. This place is a bit small, but getting seating was no issue. We ordered some coffee while we waited for our main course. I ordered a plate of shrimp, as well as a pizza with shrimp and italian sausage. The girlfriend ordered a simple cheese pizza. The wait time was a bit longer than expected, but fortunately the wait was well worth it. We also got here in good time, as this place got busy shortly after they took our order. The shrimp plate was delicious, and the pizza was great. Seeing as we were pretty famished, I ate most of the pizza in that sitting. I had two cups of caffe americano afterward to ward off the itis. The place may be small, and the wait may be a little longer, but the food was decent and worth it. The staff is decent, and the place is kept clean and run well. read more

I was craving Italian and this place was the perfect stop for a relaxing dinner. The restaurant is small with limited indoor seating but several outdoor tables. The service was wonderful despite a bit of a language barrier (totally my fault but I appreciate both staff for their patience). I ordered a pappardelle with sausage and my parter a fettuccine dish and both were excellent! Perfect portions and made to order. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Paid for an Uber to dine here. Advertised 8:00 close. We arrived at 7:20 and were told we could only get to go. Not reasonable.

What a wonderful treat this was, and another fabulous Italian restaurant in the Mexico City area. If I could teleport here on a regular basis for Italian food, besides Mexican food, I would. My husband and I enjoyed this restaurant for the pizza that we ordered. We were in the mood for pizza and found this place near our hotel, and decided to try it out. The reviews didn't lie. We had the sautéed garlic shrimp with cilantro and it was absolutely heaven! The combo pizza was what we were looking for, and couldn't have asked for better. The place had the best service. Even though were arrived here just an hour before they closed, it felt as if they treated us like they just opened their doors. The best part, not only was the food amazing, I really would say that this was one of the most affordable and tasty places we ate at in Mexico City. I believe in total for one pizza, two soda pops, the shrimp, and a Cesar salad, was all for under $20 dollars! read more

We are from California, visiting Mexico City, and just wanted something a little different from Mexican food. This place is 100% recommended for delicious pizza and pasta! We ordered the hummus for an appetizer. Kinda different to be offered at an Italian restaurant, but it was delicious! Highly recommend! We ordered a couple pizzas and one of the pasta dishes. Everything was so tasty and fresh. The pasta sauce was excellent. The pizzas were soooo good! One pizza could probably feed 2 people. Excellent service and drinks completed the experience. All I can say is go and check it out. You'll be happy you did! read more

The pizza Guanciale Champiñones is hands down the best pizza I've ever had in my life. You guys, I'm almost speechless! I'll forever think about this pizza and crave it. The pasta was perfectly al dente and so full of flavor. It's spicy and perfect. Incredible quality shrimp. Plump and juicy. Another dish I'll forever think about. The jamon pizza was also excellent. I love this place and im very happy we order from here. They are doing beautiful things in that kitchen. I wish I was here long enough to try everything. I LOVE MEXICO CITY!!!! read more

This tiny place sits 16 people! Its small and intimate and service is top notch! Ricardo is SO hospitable! The owner is lucky to have him on staff! Thank you Ricardo for all that information on the Museo de Arqueologia y los otras cosas! Also for being so attentive to our needs the entire time we ate! Excellent service! Apparently it is owned by a New Yorker In any case, the pizza / pasta and mozzarella salad were fresh and smelled good! read more

I came to this small Italian restaurant with the family based upon the existing reviews, and it did not disappoint. We were seated quickly outside without a reservation. The menu was consise, but had options for everyone. Note: they speak English here which was helpful. We got bread and oil, grilled calamari in an orange sauce, meatballs, spaghetti and branzino (fish of the day). All were great and came out quickly. The ambience of the restaurant was also very nice, with some quiet music playing. We had a great conversation over great food and would recommend this place to anyone. read more

Nice street and atmosphere. Arugula salad was delicious. Carnivore pizza was decent.

We had a late lunch, after our morning of the castle and archeological museum. We ordered the pasta and it was delicious. The sauce was very tasty. Would come again. read more

Yum yum yum. We're from California and found this place after a long day at the park and castle. Service was good and friendly and food was delicious. We ordered one salad and one pasta and it was enough for 2. Highly recommend. Of note, they do not take AmEx, but do take other credit cards. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this place. Five of us went here on a Friday night. I found it thanks to 20 fellow Yelpers, who gave it an average of 4 stars. I was skeptical when we rolled up at 8:30 to an empty restaurant, but given that's an early dinner time in Mexico City, we rolled the dice and decided to stay. As with most dining experiences in Mexico, we were bombarded with multiple servers offering us drinks and dinner specials. They only had 5 bottles of wine, all of which were Italian. We tried two different ones and were happy with both. We split the fig and jamon serrano pizza, of which I ate about half. It was delicious and not the least bit greasy. The house salad (mixed organic greens, grilled tomatoes, balsamic and parmesan cheese) was simple, yet refreshing. I went with the risotto. The waiter warned me it would take 45 minutes, which I was more than happy to wait for knowing it would be made fresh and not re-heated. This risotto was one of the best I've had, in the unlikeliest of places. And I have eaten a LOT of risotto over my 33 years. Some others in the group got the spaghetti with shrimp. After being nice enough to share some of my risotto, they wish they had ordered what I ordered. I can't speak for the dessert since I couldn't leave any of that risotto unconsumed, not to mention my group forced me to eat half the pizza. The service was overwhelming like every place you go in this city, but it was excellent nevertheless. This place is very affordable. There's not a food item on the menu over $225 MXN (about $11 or $12 US). read more

This unassuming hole in the wall restaurant in Condesa has just amazing food. We said that after almost every bite. We started with a Caprese Salad - a mix of great mozzarella, tomatoes and a balsamic reduction. For mains we had two pastas, both of which were delicious. Finally - the Pizza. I am from NYC, and know what great pizza tastes like. And this was great pizza. It turns out the the owner is from The Bronx, which is the home of NYCs Arthur Avenue and Little Italy. read more

Pasta was delicious! And pizza with arugula was also great. Enough food for leftovers the next day!

Great little spot. We had the rigatoni, Cesar salad and a pizza. The food and service were extremely good. My girlfriend and I would most definitely come back. read more

oh my gosh. short version: my 6 year old son said, "this was the best meal of our trip." Now that includes Oaxaca too, and yes he's 6...but honestly it hit ALL the right spots. The sausage pizza was perfection. The crust had those big burnt pockets of dough bubbles from the wood fire. Crispy yet chewy. Both kids devoured it. Yes. Oh and the lemonade we order for them was so fresh. You can tell it is homemade and not too sweet at all. Score. Now on to the grownups. Both pasta dishes we ordered were so delicious. And the arugula salad was the right complement and so refreshing. I know there are a ton of great restaurants here, but traveling with a 6 and 3 year old means we gotta include pizza in the mix and this was one place where EVERYone in the family was satisfied. I think we'll be back for one more round. And the waitstaff was super nice and personable and it's a cute little place! Not many tables but we were seated right away at 6:45 on a Sunday. read more

Delicious food and great servers. Got a caprese and pizza. Both were scrumpdidillyumtious.

What a gem Ostería 8 is. We dined on Good Friday and were so glad to find a place that was open on the holiday. We eat dinner early compared to the locals so we had the place to ourselves for almost the whole meal and then folks started showing up. The service was fantastic!! We wanted to converse with the staff about museums and local recommendations and they all gave thorough and excellent suggestions, especially Ricardo who wrote down a list for us. The owner Steve is so polite and knows many of his customers by name because they repeat their business. And I totally understand why. Every single item we ate and drank was superb. From the breadsticks to the complex sauces to the smooth wine. We will come back here every time we're in Mexico City. Fantastic place, highly recommend. Not touristy which is a bonus!! Right near an Oxxo as well for after dinner necessities before returning home! read more

This place is amazing. Great location, excellent service and the food was unbelievably good. I have to go back to eat the same thing again before I leave Mexico City. The pappardelle with cream sauce and sausage was one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had. read more

I was looking for a nice little Italian restaurant and this hit all the boxes for great food & excellent service. We shared a delicious Cesar salad and crispy bread. We both ordered pasta. The young couple at the table next to us offered to share some of their pizza as it was massive & looked absolutely amazing! They we're visiting from Spain and had eaten here on a previous visit and came back again as it is so worthy. read more

Cozy little place with excellent food. The handmade pastas we tried and the house salad were delicious. Just a bit spicy. The waiter was great, he gave us very good recommendations and served us free water (something that restaurants in Mexico don't tend to do). We spent around $250 per person without drinks, but it was worth it. I'll definitely come back. read more

After spending most of the day at the Museo Nacional de Antropología with my wife and fourteen year old son, we were ready to relax with some comfort Italian food at a nearby restaurant in Roma. Ostería fit the bill perfectly. It is located in a nice spot in Roma Norte, the servers were friendly and attentive, the food was much better than we hoped/expected, and the price was reasonable. To be clear, this is not a fancy, white table cloth, dense wine menu, multi-course kind of Italian restaurant. Rather, it's a very small and relaxed place with a small wine list that focuses on preparing and serving fresh, quality food. I got the carbonara, which was excellent. My son got the spaghetti camarón fra diavalo, which he liked though he didn't realize it had shrimp, which he doesn't like. (He could have asked us!?!) My wife ordered the fettuccini cabra, which was literally the best fettuccini I've ever had. (I mooched several bites.) In short, we definitely recommend Ostería and would eat there again. Two notes: First, there is limited seating. We got seated right away on an early Tuesday evening (6:00pm) but I can imagine it may be tougher later and/or on the weekends. Second, the menu is small and the wine list is smaller. If you're looking to tuck into a dense menu and a long evening of multi-courses with lots of wine options, Ostería may not work for you. Otherwise, we think it would satisfy most appetites and wallets. read more

Still my favorite place in Mexico City. Food and service are still top notch. Surprised there are not more people.

Outstanding pizza, probably my favorite in DF. Everything I've had at Osteria has been very good - salads, pasta, seafood, appetizers, even the free bread is of high quality. I live two blocks away so the location is great for me, but it's a bit off the beaten Condesa track. Convenient to the Metro:) Outdoor seating is almost always available, but it is very small so you may want to call ahead for parties over four or during peak times. Can't recommend them highly enough. read more

Hummus with shrimp and garlic was odd. Garlic was overpowering but hummus was tasty. I had the spaghetti carbonara and it was really a cheesy pasta. The sauce was not creamy like I was expecting. Service was below average. The waiter never asked us if the meal was ok.. he never returned to our table ever during the duration of our meal except to take plates away. It was good guanciale , good cheese ... I just was expecting a creamy carbonara ... overall average read more

Good service. The menu is simple Italian and the execution is excellent. We were visiting the area, but would be a place to go frequently if lived close. Dishes well balanced. read more

Pretty good pizzas! We ordered the prawn, chorizo, prosciutto and Italian sausage pizzas half-half to take away. They were the classic Italian thin crust and pretty tasty. Beware they look very oily upon inspection but I didn't feel bad after eating them like you usually do with very greasy pizza. The prawn and the chorizo were my favourites. I was excited to try the prosciutto as it looks great, coming with figs and drizzled balsamic vinegar but for some reason the base on this pizza was denser than the others and for this reason it didn't meet my expectations. The sausage was ok but nothing to write home about. Still I would go again! Recommend :) read more

it is completely beyond me why this place is not more crowded that it is. We were a Mexico City for approximately 9 days and we ate here twice, once for lunch and once for dinner. This is by far one of the best Italian restaurants I have been to in Mexico City or anywhere else. The one problem I see with this restaurant is that it is rather small, with only about a table and a small wait staff. The manager is very attentive, and the service was impeccable. The pasta here is homemade and cooked perfectly every time. The first time we were here we had the spaghetti carbonara which was absolutely divine. The second time we had the fettuccine with Italian sausage which was probably the best concoction I have ever tasted. I'm so surprised that this place is does not attract a bigger crowd.we also ordered a pizza which was incredible. The mozzarella cheese was incredibly fresh, and the crust was cchewy and delicious. I have a recommend anyone who comes to Mexico City consider having the meals here. read more
