Christmas time is truly the best time to go bc its beautifully decorated! Portions are huge so recommended splitting entrees or prepare to have take home box. Service is outstanding and all pasta homemade except penne and rigatoni. Only con - F&B is overpriced but understandable due to location and popularity. Highly recommend though!

I’m from a large, Italian family so I’m picky with any Italian dining experiences (aren’t we all?!?!)…and I’ve never been disappointed with Osteria Marzano. Wonderful food, service and cocktails every time I’ve visited. Extensive menu, but they shine with the classics; the chicken parm is my favorite. Can’t sing this restaurant’s praises enough!
