   Our server was fantastic, attentive, polite, and knowledgeable. However, unfortunately, this place does not live up to the hype. The food is very bland. For appetizers we had the carpaccio, caprese salad, and croquettes. Both the caprese salad and carpaccio were bland. The only thing worth recommending would be the croquettes the sauce was fantastic. The steak (I acknowledge, as a ribeye should be fatty) was about half fat that was almost too tough to chew or cut. The price for what you get compared to the quality is beyond disappointing. The halibut was tough and flavourless. The managers were socializing / talking pretty loudly next to our table which was a little disruptive to our dinner. Unfortunately, not the experience we were expecting given all the positive reviews.

   My friend and I had a wonderful meal at Osteria. Our server Jan, was friendly and courteous always making sure everything was well. We were very glad to hear that they were able to reopen after the fire and continue to serve customers. We will definitely return!

   Very good dining experience. The limited menu is clear and choices are good ones. Reasonably priced - a fun night out.

   We had an amazing dinner here with our 16 month old. The food and service were outstanding. They even gave her a little toy to play with. We will definitely be back.

    If you want authentic Italian food and authentic dining experience then this is where you want to go. My husband and I dined there for his birthday. If you are adventurous go for the chef's three course meal. Ours ended up being a five course meal counting the complimentary bruschetta upon seating and an extra the chef threw in. The chef decides each course on the go, so you don't know what is coming out of the kitchen. It was so fun and the food was top notch. Maybe not something for picky eaters but I would definitely do that again. The prices were very fair for the high quality servings we received. Next time I would love to try their pizza which is tailored to each region in Italy giving you a true taste of Italy. The staff was lovely and very professional. We never felt rushed. We went on a Tuesday night meaning it's probably less busy so we were afforded the time to dine there two hours. I believe a reservation is a 90 min time slot, so we definitely lucked out. Looking forward to returning with friends.
