We love everything about restaurants. In particular, we love Italian. We love the food, the wine, the diversity, and the pride that Italians take in hosting a memorable experience. We’ve spent our lives developing restaurants. From a simple deli or a laidback pub to award-winning fine dining, we have worked hard and are proud to present Autostrada Osteria. It’s a place with a simple philosophy. Inspired by the casual osterie of Italy, the focus is on a simple menu where quality ingredients shine, regional wines that represent a place, and a room filled with warmth and bustle. We hope you enjoy what we’ve poured our hearts into. Dustin & Lucais

Cannot recommend Fiorino more.Fantastic meal and service. Started with Negronis, Insalata Caterina and Carpaccio. The salad was fresh, the dressing a little briny that paired perfectly with the nuts and cheese. The carpaccio was like butter; the arugula added the peppery punch that balanced the creamy red wine mayo. We then had the Polpo e Nduja which was an absolute treasure. The octopus was the best I have ever had (sorry Nonna). Mind bogglingly tender. Paired with the perfectly rendered porkbelly and slightly bitter rapini. I could have easily eaten 6 more of these and taken some to go. Added the Fritto Misto which I normally would not order but must admit was perfectly seasoned and all components cooked to perfection. The service was timely, professional and friendly. It was a bit loud at first due to a couple of happy large groups (can't really complain about people having a good time) but as those parties left the acoustics improved. Best meal of our trip thus far. Go, you won't regret it.

I loved the steak - best I have had in a long time! The pasta dish Boscaiola Campanelle was delightful, if you like mushrooms and pasta in a light creamy sauce, definitely get this dish. I'll be back!
