I brought my coworkers here a few weeks ago for a company team lunch and everyone had a great time and really enjoyed the food! The portions were large and plentiful, so much so that we were super full and still had leftovers to take home. My favorite dish was the kale salad, which was surprisingly flavorful. The pizzas were also great!I contacted OSPI ahead of time to make a large party reservation, opting for the lunch time prix fixe menu. The whole process was super smooth, and they were very helpful in helping me choose appropriate dishes based on the dietary restrictions of our group (we had vegetarians and gluten free people, both of whom were accomodated).My only critique is that the food took quite a while to come out at the start. I expected it to be out sooner since we had a reservation and had ordered a fixed menu, but after being seated, we still had to wait a decent amount, so we were quite hungry. After that, the pacing of the meals could've been slightly faster, but it's understandable because of the large party servings. Otherwise, service was great.Unfortunately I was too distracted eating to take pictures! The food was delicious!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free

The food was not up to the mark, I think the only good thing I ate were the fries. The tables are so close to each other, it pretty awful. The service was good though.

Super super great place. The pasta here is so good and the appetizers are AMAZING. I love the servers shirts and the whole vibe of this place. Great spot to go to for pasta.

Every dish we had here was so tasty and full of flavor! I is a very trendy and modern Italian place near the boardwalk! The service was great and all the dishes came out in perfect timing! Would recommend coming here if you're in the area!

Everything about Ospi is 5 stars. From the adorable martini flight to the amazing service bar top. The food? Omg best pizza on the west coast period. Cute NYC-esque Italian restaurant bar. And did I mention the best manager ever, Rachel? I'll definitely be back for happy hour or dinner anytime I'm visiting my friend in El Segundo or hanging out in Venice.

Had a great experience here on a Thursday night for a friends birthday. It was a bustling spot, medium to high on the noise level. Our waiter was Tucker who was very attentive and helpful with recommendations. Someone always made sure we had plenty of water in our glasses which was nice because we drink a lot of water lol. I got the belleza cocktail and it was delicious, very refreshing. Of course we had to get the crispy provolone which was SO GOOD! The sauce!! Put it on!! We shared a funghi pizza and the lemon tagliolini- pasta w lobster and pistachio in it oh my god! Soooo good. Who knew pistacho, lemon and lobster when so well together. With a hint of spice too.

The kale salad was sooooooo good! Ospi was a delightful experience BUT we went around 4PM so it wasn't as busy as it can be which was nice. Service was uber buber on point, the vibe is nice, and my goodness the food is delicious. Are every single drop of everything. It's nice there's security in the front cuz the areas is a little sketch. Will def be returning in the near future.

We last minute decided to go, so we made a reservation for 9 PM. We were seated early at 8:30. the appetizers came quickly and so did our main. Then dessert took 30 minutes to come. The service towards the end of our meal became very very slow. Overall the food was incredible. Caesar salad 9/10 Japanese eggplant 9.5/10 Cauliflower 8.5 Crispy provolone 9/10 (the vodka sauce is the best) Spicy Rigatoni 7.50 (very spicy. Much spicer than Jon and Vinny's ) Casio e Pepe 8/10 Cannolis 9.5/10 Would definitely recommend! Great date spot!

Ospi is still one of the best Italian spots in the city! Parking is easy as there is a paid lot across the street. We always park in the lot as they have valet and your car will stay safe! The ambiance is a cool hip vibe! Some people dress up and some come in people come In casual clothes! It was really busy for a Thursday night. The service from our waitress Maria was amazing. She was extremely kind and walked us thru the menu very easily. The food at Ospi is amazing be prepared to eat as the food is on the heavier end. Highly Recommend: Vodka Pizza (thin amazing pizza!) Spicy Rigatoni Pasta (must get) Mezze Maniche (Cacio e Pepe) Butter Chicken Parm Good But Not Great: Garlic Bread Kale Salad Caesar salad Crispy Provolone Highly recommend Ospi in Venice. Straight 5/5
