OMG! Accidentally Discovered an Amazing Italian Pizza Place 🍕

Honestly, the little plaza in Costa Mesa is full of hidden gems! Right next to the famous Milligram Coffee and Kitchen, there’s this incredible Italian restaurant tucked away—I’ve passed by several times and never noticed it! And wow, the food is absolutely DELICIOUS!! I was genuinely blown away～ Irvine actually has tons of Italian restaurants (I’ll make a summary post someday!), but this one really stands out with its unique and tasty flavors! 💕 Ospi Costa Mesa 📍 234 E 17th St #100, Costa Mesa ✨ Must-Try Recommendations: Kanpachi Crudo 🐟 – Super fresh raw fish served with orange, slightly spicy oil, and herbs. Icy, tangy, and refreshing—so light and flavorful! Marinara Pizza 🍕 – A classic Italian red sauce base with chili, basil, and ricotta cheese. The crust is perfectly crispy, and every bite is pure joy! Ricotta Fettu’unta 🥖 – Crispy toasted bread topped with creamy ricotta, pine nuts, and herb sauce. Crunchy outside, soft inside—so satisfying! Japanese Eggplant 🍆 – Eggplant with spicy tomato sauce and breadcrumbs. Great texture and depth of flavor, perfect with a glass of wine! 🍷 Pair it with a glass of red wine, and it feels like a true Italian serenade～ The vibe is perfect for a girls' night or a date—soft lighting, stylish red booths, and a cozy yet chic atmosphere. Highly recommend saving this spot and visiting soon! Friendly reminder: Free parking available ~ plenty of spaces!! Better to make a reservation in advance!!! #Foodie #LALifestyle #LADining #PizzaLovers #HiddenGems #ItalianCuisine #ItalianRestaurant #IrvineEats #VibeDining #OCFoodScene
