The onion soup was great and well-seasoned. Beef bourguignon was delicious and a must-try in here. Didn't like the complementary tiramisu but it was nice for them to bring it as a nice gesture.

Very much enjoyed our dining experience at Osteria Nando. The only problem was deciding what to get! They have a very broad selection across 3 different types of cuisines but everything we had was great. Will definitely be back to try all the dishes we weren't able to this time.

Very disappointed in my experience with take out here. I called to order the croque monsieur and the short rib sandwich. I came to pick it up and they charged me $2 more for the croque monsieur than the price showing on their website. Then I waited over 15 mins for them to get me change when I paid for the order cash. Lastly, and the worst, was when I got home (after a 30 mins drive home!) I opened the bag and saw they they failed to give the fries and salad that comes with the short rib sandwich. We paid for something we did not receive and when I called they were pretty unhelpful and just said well do you want to come back for a refund? I am 30 mins away, no thank you. 1. They should have honored the pricing on their website. 2. They should have told me they will email me a voucher to use next time I come in. That would have made up for the unorganized mess of their cashier and their kitchen. I will not be going back here. The food was not even that great. It was just so so.

The short rib pasta was my favorite thing here. Everything else was average. I was expecting a lot more after reading the reviews. Cozy ambience and friendly service.

Absolutely love this place! Love its integrity and the way it is styled and decorated. I always get the shrimp appetizer and it is absolutely scrumptious. We feasted at Osteria Nando and just had one of those beautiful times at a restaurant that you always remember for all the right reasons.

Lucky find. We found them on a phone app. They had a table available on a busy holiday Friday night. The place was hopping with younger and older people. There was an energy but conversation was easy to have. Great food. On our short list for a future visit.

Owner is notorious for not paying his vendors. Be careful other small business distributors.

This was a lucky find. They did have a table available at the last minute or it's on a busy Friday night. Great food! Younger and older energetic crowd and yet conversation was very easy. Very positive vibe in this place. The proprietor was everywhere checking on his diners.

Large menu, lots of choices. Went on a busy Saturday night and we still received attentive and prompt service. Some of the dishes we tried weren't amazing but all were solid osteria/brasserie efforts.

Food was delish and fresh. Also ordered an espresso martini and was perfect. Great service, ambiance and music as well.

Very Busy on Saturday Night. Despite the crowd we had a pleasant greeting by the manager/owner(?) and timely service by our waiter. The food was filling and tasty, and the drinks were small, But Strong! If you're looking for a busy atmosphere, this will work well for you.

Very attentive and friendly staff and excellent service. The owner/manager is hands on and wants you to have a great experience. Cozy clean restaurant The food was great! There were five of us. I had the lamb chops perfectly prepared. The truffle fries are addictive! Too full for Dessert but he brings by a large tiramisu to share on the house! We walked from the Metropolitan Museum, wonderful ending to our day!
