Oh my gosh, this was such a fabulous restaurant! It was so pretty inside. They still had decorations up for Christmas and it was spectacular. As I walked in the door, I saw a lady who was hand making ravioli. I had to have it! I got the lobster ravioli and it was amazing. Leftovers for lunch today. It was a nice touch having an offer of amaretto or Sambuca at the end of our meal complementary. It was a nice place to celebrate my husband‘s birthday. I highly recommend it.

One of our fave Italian restaurants, especially since we have moved to the Olive Garden food deserts that is Woodbridge. Today was my mom’s 88th birthday. Thank you, Osteria Marzano’s staff for making her veal Al limone. The most memorable dish for her, was the Sicilian sorbetto al limone. Grazie a tutti!

My server was pretty nervous, I think he was new. The bar was painfully slow getting drinks out to our table. Otherwise, the food was excellent, as always, and the price affordable. A nice restaurant.
