Oliver's Osteria in Orange County offers an authentic Italian dining experience that makes guests feel like they are in Italy. The food is outstanding, especially the handmade strozzapreti with black truffle, which is highly recommended. The restaurant has a wide selection of wines and cocktails to complement the delicious meals. The interior atmosphere adds to the overall experience, making it a popular spot for many return customers. The service is attentive and friendly, and the free bread, which includes tomatoes, stands out from other places. There is an outside dining area under a big tent that some might find reminiscent of a wedding. The chef's personal touch is evident, especially during the Chef's Table experience, where each course is carefully explained and paired with Italian wines. The staff is authentic, and the atmosphere under the tent can feel like being in lockdown, but it adds a unique charm. Guests often praise the Polpette Fritte, Insalata Caprese, and Rigatoni Cacio e Pepe, as well as the Roman-style pizza called pinsa romana, enjoyed by kids and adults alike. Overall, Oliver's Osteria remains a top choice for those seeking quality Italian food in a warm, inviting setting.
