Went here for my bday lunch on the UES. I was first to arrive. Service was amazing. This restaurant only has about 12 tables and is pretty small but their food is mighty tasty. The extra parm fluffy Caesar salad is maybe the best ever. No joke. The simple spaghetti was delicious. A must try.

Wasn’t bad the food was good but really small portions for big plates and kind of expensive. I went with my bestfriend and the service was very nice no complaints except for the grilled shrimp it’s 22 bucks but you only get 4 pieces of shrimp. 100 bucks is definitely more then good for 1 person but for 2 people if you get drinks, an appetizer, and 1 meal per person it is definitely a tight budget.

Truly lovely experience all around. We were welcomed into this cozy spot by a friendly staff with Kimi taking extra care to make our evening pleasant. Seating is limited with reservations becoming necessary to guarantee a space, but honestly the space is the perfect set up for good conversation. The wine list was nicely curated—we chose the 2017 Super Tuscan, which was smooth, rich, and paired well across the meal. We began with the antipasto. The quality was immediately apparent… the prosciutto was buttery on the palate and the house pickled veggies added a bright, fresh note. For the mains, the cacio e pepe had the perfect creamy texture (I need the chef to teach me their ways for this!), well-balanced salt to black pepper, and good bite to the pasta. My husband was lucky enough to snag the final duck ragu special of the evening and (wow!) we’re so glad to have done so. Perfectly cooked with tender meat and flavors that transported us right back to the osterias on the streets of Italy. We ended with the tiramisu (light and creamy) and a pistachio affogato, which did get a bit outshined. Hospitality was top notch here making this is a “must add” meal experience for your list. We will definitely be returning for more.

We got the Ceaser, fettucini ragu, and NYStrip rare with a bottle of wine.
Perfect amount to split without getting overly stuffed. The ragu and strip were superb.
The mushrooms and mushroom sauce were outstanding with the NY Strip. Highly recommend!

It felt like we were back in Italy, we were tended to by Angelo (he’s Italian!) who was very sweet and engaging. The food was lovely. Reservation is a must. We went here for my husbands birthday, we got a tart for dessert. I was surprised by how dainty and thin it was, yet perfectly ratioed.

We had a reservation for just after 6pm, which is very early by any patron’s standards. But L’Osteria is a tiny restaurant, with tiny tables, and considering its popularity we wanted to give it a try and took the extremely early slot. We started with the endive salad which was well presented and seasoned, fresh and delicious with promise that what was to come would be wonderful as well. We then moved on to veal picatta. Now for me, veal picatta is the test of an Italian restaurant and sadly there l’Osteria failed miserably. The meat was tough, hadn’t been ‘pounded’ and tasted of the flour it had been dredged in. And although the sauce was flavorful, nothing could mask the overwhelming flour taste on the meat and that spoiled this dish. I complained and was graciously offered an alternative and settled on the home made fettucini with ragu, certainly a better, if overly salty choice. The tiramisu for dessert was a large portion, but unfortunately dry and devoid of any alcohol. At 7:30pm the bill was suddenly tossed on the table and without even being asked whether we wanted coffee, or a digestive, we were repeatedly pressured to pay, so the table could be resold. It was a rapid end to what we hoped would be a leisurely meal. Overall, for the price point at over $80 per person and its location on the UES, there are better choices for Italian fare in the neighborhood.

As others have said, this pretty, intimate Italian restaurant serves delicious food. From appetizers through desserts, every dish was special. Our lunch with good friends was made even more special by the gracious, knowledgeable waitstaff who genuinely care whether guests enjoy their food. The noise level was such a relief too; how great to be able to have a conversation without straining to hear or having to speak loudly to be heard!

Cozy and relaxing restaurant near the Met with the friendliest staff. So glad I stumbled upon this gem. They adjusted my salad dressing for my arugula salad with grilled chicken catering to my preference.

First time and our party of 3 really enjoyed our lunch here. Made a reservation by phone and I recommend doing so – it’s a small room and seating is on the tight side. Warm, helpful, professional service; our waiter let us taste an unfamiliar wine which we loved and wound up ordering. Food was delicious – I had the meatball sandwich (not sure if only avail at lunch): tender, flavorful meatballs, excellent bright sauce and not too much bread, with a peppery arugula salad on the side. Companions were very happy with their food as well. Really good place, will definitely return.

The space is small but cozy and very clean. The star of the menu is mainly pasta. I really like the green color and basil flavor of the Fusilli Pesto, and the Shrimp Linguine has a delicious sauce mixed with the shrimp! The tiramisu is a bit sweet, but the creamy flavor is rich and tasty. It would be even better with slightly less sweetness!
