I tasted my friends mashed potatoes and theirs tasted normal so I have no idea what they did to mine when preparing it. It tasted like plastic and rubber gloves. The veal tasted good but they contaminate their food with random stuff. My father finished his water before realizing the reason it tasted so odd was because there was probably soap left in the glass. Don't get poisoned. I feel sick now from their food. Now they're getting only 1 star because someone is trying to harass and threaten me over this review. I went to this location in Monroe Connecticut for Easter and I was at this restaurant location.

Two good-sized Maryland-style cakes, nicely seared and packed with crab (not filler). They came over a bed of fresh arugula and parmesan with a lemony kick and chili aioli that tied it together really well. The fish and chips were classic -- a big, flaky piece of wild cod fried golden. Fries were solid, tartar sauce hit the spot. Tried the crispy chicken sandwich too. Juicy chicken, cheddar, bacon, pickles, and the same chili aioli they used on the crab cakes. Really tasty combo, and the fries on the side were crisp. Overall: good food, friendly vibe, and worth a return visit.

The interior of this place is incredibly beautiful and so inviting. I sat at the bar and saw many items on the menu that looked so good. I was in the mood for seafood and really wanted their zuppa di pesce but didn't want a whole portion because I know I wouldn't be able to finish it. The bartender told me that I could order a half order which was incredibly exciting. I checked out the rest of the venue and the outdoor area in the back which was kind of magical. I tried a few mocktails, they were good, the coconut one was best. The dish I ordered was delicious, as well as the bread served with olive oil that had roasted garlic in it. I loved everything about this experience. I learned that they have an all you can eat buffet every Sunday for only 40 dollar. Can't wait to try it. Thank you Osteria!

The ambiance is still very nice. We went on a Monday evening so it wasn't very loud, but I can see…read morehow it could get so because we had a table of very loud women next to us. Can't imagine if we multiplied that by any additional tables. I just want to bring up the bread. Such a wasted opportunity to serve something so inexpensive that has such an impact on the overall experience. The bread is bafflingly bad. It's dry, and hard and tastes like nothing. The garlic infused oil that should improve the old stale bread is served with the hard skin still on the garlic. That's not edible and it's also not easy to remove once it's all mixed together. A small complaint about the lasagna. It's mostly cheese and very difficult to find any pasta among the soupy cheese and tomatoes. The taste is good but it's a bit of a rip off to serve something like lasagna with one or maybe two layers. The chicken parm was still delicious as was the polenta appetizer. Service was friendly and prompt. If they could just fix the bread and garlic situation and maybe bulk up the lasagna with some noodles, we'd be back.

From the moment we started, everything was excellent. We ordered the Steak & Cheese Egg Rolls and…read morethe Fried Calamari as appetizers. The egg rolls were packed with flavor, and the dipping sauce was absolutely delicious. The calamari was perfectly crispy with great seasoning--cooked just right. For the entrées, I had the Delmonico Ribeye, which was cooked to perfection. It was warm, juicy, tender, and full of flavor. We also ordered the Steak Burger 111, which was equally impressive--juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The drinks were also great and reasonably priced, which was a nice bonus. To finish the meal, we had Matilda's Chocolate Layer Cake. It was rich, delicious, and the perfect way to end the meal. Overall, everything was spot on from start to finish. Great food, excellent service, reasonably priced drinks, and quality throughout. We'll definitely be back again!

The place was packed which I thought was good because it was a sign of a good spot. But we noticed most people were at the bar. The server was friendly but obviously overworked. Basically brought us water and took our order. Never checked up on us during the meal. Food was very good to be fair and the portions were adequate. We just felt it was nothing great. They just took our order, dumped our food and that was it goodbye. Plus it was so loud it was just not enjoyable. There are so many places to eat in the area for great relaxing meal but this isn't one of them. We go out weekly but will not be back here.
