The restaurant closed permanently 3 weeks ago. Took an Uber there & restaurant dark and locked. Uber had left, we had no reservation anywhere else. Tried to call another restaurant that doesn't use Open Table, but at 7:30 on Friday night they were too busy to answer the phone. Open Table caused a BIG disappointment and an inconvenience. Went home and had leftovers. Not a fun date night.

We went for Mother's Day. Thought we would be able to order off the menu. Did not know it was buffet only. Food was ok, but not to warm. Would've rather ordered off the menu. Service was pretty good. Ambiance was great, and it was quiet. Will be back, but not if the buffet is all that's available.
With Fabio's name and reputation, we expected an upscale experience. Instead we were presented with a brunch buffet with a very limited selection of picked over, tepid dishes. Very disappointing!

Really great dining experience! Absolutely the best service you could imagine! Kash is possibly the best server ever, she is attentive but never intrudes, she remembers everything about you, anticipates your needs, she's cheerful and friendly and just generally makes you feel so welcome!

Very disappointing. Had a 7pm reservation for 2. Had to wait to be seated, then told a 5 min wait for our table to be prepared. ?? The place was dead. Server took a long time to greet us. $7 upcharge to sub mashed potatoes to pasta for a $26 meal with nothing extra. No salad no bread. A drop of wine that was actually very good Chardonnay. Food was just ok. Won’t be back.

What a great surprise!!! The food was great, and our waitress/ bartender did a wonderful job with service, smile and accuracy!! Kash was so welcoming and remembered our friend's drink orders we will definitely return for a relaxing, fun and delicious evening out!!!
We had a wonderful time eating here! Our service was provided by Kashana, who was super friendly and welcoming. She provided efficient service, as well as whipping me up a delicious mocktail! I very much enjoy going somewhere that carries more than soda in terms of non-alcoholic drinks, although the mango citrus IPA "Psuedo Sue" was also an excellent drink choice.The food we ordered was full of excellent flavor, and came out so quickly it was still steaming hot! I highly reccomend the Pasta E Poipetti if you're looking for meatballs. However, their pizza is mouth-watering as well, and definitely top tier when it comes to fresh pizza.Thanks again!

Pizza was great! We had the veggie pizza, the pepperoni pizza and the mushroom pizza. However we also had salads and the blue cheese dressing was watered down to the point of no flavor and the lettuce was wilted.. Also, the wait staff was friendly but overworked. I would try it again but hope they step it up a bit.

Another fabulous meal! Short rib was delectable as always. Brussels sprouts were awesome! But the absolute best part of the evening was the amazing service we received from Kash! Attentive, great menu insights, prompt, and she remembers everything! Service like that keeps us coming back!
First of all - yes, this restaurant is inside a Giant Eagle. I swore I was in the wrong place, and my family definitely took every advantage to make fun of me for booking a restaurant inside a grocery store. However, once you're inside you don't feel like you're anywhere NEAR a grocery store. There was excellent live music, the service was very friendly and fast, and the food was great. Portions are large, so I'd encourage you to spilt an entree and a salad or an appetizer or two! Don't let the location dissuade you - Osteria is worth a visit.
The food was outstanding. My husband had the Caesar salad and a Margherita pizza which is he uses as a standard for judging pizzas and Italian places. It was sooo good. I had the pasta with meatballs- AMAZING. The meatballs were tender and perfectly seasoned. We also had the mussels appetizer and it was just great! And the bread with rosemary was served with some beautiful olive oil and obviously house made ricotta. YUM!! We had leftover pizza reheated in the oven and the crust was perfection. I wish we had more. I am going to order their pizzas to go and will happily drive the 15-20 minutes to get them. The place was clean and pretty, and the service was delightful.

We love local Italian food, but the unfortunately the taste of this food wasn't very good. The sauce was under cooked and raw tasting. They do have good pizza in though! Local beers were good too!

Major disappointment; I feel like talking to Fabio personally. Easter brunch— pancakes as hard as rocks, lukewarm frittatas, tough roast beef. Desserts were lackluster. Mediocre table service. We won't be back

Very poor experience for Easter Brunch. Food was cold, the pancakes were like bricks and the eggs were stiff. Unfortunately the restaurant was not following ordinary food safety standards which included having sneeze guards over buffets. It was a very sad sight. I'm surprised since I heard it was good. We won't be going back. I'm worried about the cleanliness.

This place is so amazing...excellent food service and there was live acoustic music that was very enjoyable. Absolutely loved it and will definitely be back.
