We had an excellent experience, from the extremely nice, and super inviting lady working in the hostess area, we felt very welcomed instantly. Loved the ambiance, and the food was delicious. Ahi app, Lobster and Tomato Bisque, lemon shrimp, and my date's mushroom pasta were all really, really good. Kayla was our server and was awesome. Went out of her way to make sure our few leftovers got back home so she added some extra wrapping to help, and she was super attentive during...

Went there for first time with my wife for date night. I had the goat cheese, lobster bisque, berry salad and salmon. She had caesar and a shrimp pasta dish. Everything was delicious. I am picky about a good lobster bisque. Might have been best I've had especially with the puff pastry on top. Salmon entree was filled with tasty fresh vegetables.

This is my 4th time dining at Osteria. Each time I try to order something different and I'm never disappointed. I had the salmon and it was amazing. I always order the raw oysters as an appetizer though and they are always fresh. I also had fresh baked cookies for dessert and they were moist, gooey, and some of the best I've ever tasted in a restaurant. Osteria is at the top of my list as a favorite.
