One of the go to Italian spots in Tampa! Can pretty much order whatever you want and they'll make it. We had the pear pasta to start with, which was just amazing and had a perfect sweetness to it. For main we got the gnocchi, a seafood pasta, and a chicken Alfredo with chicken. All delicious, so good to where I feel like you can't go wrong with what you get. Will definitely be back!
Such an amazing and intimate dining experience! Every bite all the more amazing and with a wonderful wait staff attending to your every need. If I could I would give it 7 stars!
Great dining experience. There 5 of us and everyone enjoyed it. The restaurant is small and intimate but not pretentious. The menu has great options but our server explained that they can make almost anything. The service was great and the prices are reasonable. Wine prices seemed low for great wines We all had pasta dishes. And the food was delicious and the portions are large. I will return.
We really enjoyed our date night here. It has a cozy, romantic atmosphere and excellent service. They have a nice wine menu and daily specials. Children under ten are not permitted, making it a great date night choice. We ordered the seafood bass special and a red snapper dish and enjoyed both of them. They have plenty of other pasta dishes as well and take requests from guests. It was a very enjoyable experience.
Love love this place. Have been coming here for many many years and Osterria never disappoints. It’s starts with the ownership. They are working hard in the restaurant every evening. Everyone feels welcomed and feels like a guest versus just a patron. Food is always cooked perfectly and exceptional. My wife had the special Hogfish which she devoured. The Veal picatta hands down is the best in Tampa. For apps there are many great options but if you can’t choose request the trio of Meatball, gnocch and pear suchatini. Sp? Plus they have a great selection of wines including some really good Italian options.
An absolutely exceptional dining experience. The service was impeccable, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the food was outstanding from start to finish. Every course, from appetizer to dessert, was perfectly executed. I wholeheartedly recommend this gem to anyone in Tampa.
First of all, thank you for an amazing experience! Although the restaurant was full, the owner and staff made my husband and me feel like we were the only ones there. The food was absolutely delicious, and I was amazed to see that they would make any Italian dish. I was so impressed! My only feedback? You should serve the pink sauce in a tub so I can live in it. I will definitely be back—such a wonderful experience!
