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 service was friendly and attentive, the music was Italian and volume was perfect to set the mood to enjoy a nice meal. Portions are very good and flavors layered to pick up all the traditional ingredients one expects in Sicilian cuisine. A must visit when in Bruges!

We were tired and hungry and really didn't want to take our frustration out on the waitress. We should have paid for our drinks and just left. It took another 15 minutes for any one to come and finally take our order. The pizza was just mediocre and we ordered two plus the pomodora pasta. It's was absolutely nothing special. God bless the waitress but she had no sense of urgency and not sure she really cared. We asked a couple of times for bill and it finally came. Do yourselves a favor and stay clear of this place. Pizza Hut would have been better!

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!
