About Osteria Costa

Osteria Costa is a charming Italian restaurant located in a casino, designed to evoke the breezy Italian coast. The ambiance is enhanced with light fixtures and artwork that reflect the spirit of the region. The friendly and attentive staff make guests feel at home. The menu features a buffet with fresh waffle, omelet, and pasta stations, perfect for a Sunday brunch. The restaurant also offers a variety of breakfast and lunch dishes, including eggs, bacon, shrimp, chicken sausage, potatoes, salad, pizzas, and Italian seafood. The chef-operated omelet and pasta stations provide a good selection of fillings, and the self-serve waffle station is a highlight. Guests have praised the great service, lively atmosphere, and entertainment, which includes violin music playing popular R&B, neo soul, old school hip hop, and contemporary jazz. The food receives high marks, with dishes like the vodka pasta, short rib, lobster alla limone, and shrimp cavatelli earning praise for their flavor and filling nature. The fried calamari appetizer remains a favorite, and Chef Joe's pasta at the pasta bar continues to be highly regarded. The restaurant's atmosphere is relaxed, and it remains a popular choice at the National Harbor, often considered the best restaurant in the area. Parking at the MGM is free, and the location near the theatre makes it convenient for guests.

Went into Costa on 9/13/24 and spent $150 dollars and had the Lobster Alla Limone.

Our decision to dine at Osteria was the best. Menu was varied, and better yet, expertly explained by Nicole, our waitress. She patiently answered all our queries about the menu items to include my wife's concern for her milk products allergy. The food was very good and plentiful. Nicole helped us immensely with the timing of food delivery from the kitchen in order to meet our scheduled short walk to The Theater for a concert. While pressed for time, we couldn't finish eating but...read full review
Osteria Costa at National Harbor delivered an exceptional experience from start to finish. The food and cocktails were top-notch—beautifully prepared, full of bold flavor, and memorable in every bite and sip. The service was equally impressive: attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. A must-visit destination for anyone looking for outstanding Italian cuisine, expertly crafted drinks, and first-class hospitality. Highly recommended!
