Osteria Rialto — Restaurant in Da'an District

Went with a big group of people and was able to try out many dishes and it was below average.

Pizza: way too salty. I forgot the name but the pizza that had smoked meat was atrocious. The meat was clumped together and a salty mess. We ordered 3 pizza and each one had portions that were burnt to charcoal. I understand that thin crust is the selling point but it's way overdone here. Some parts are inedible and even the edible parts you can sort of taste the charcoal.

Lasagna: The flavor is good but the pasta has no texture, it was too mushy.

Salad: most of the flavor is good but the smoked meat again, was too salty. Without the smoked meat that salad is on par in terms of saltiness with the typical salad but with the meat it's too salty.

Service: The waiter that took our order was good but the waiters afterward were not as friendly. Brought the wrong dishes to the table at least 3 times and there was this one guy that just came to the table, drop the pasta dish down and didn't say anything. We had to guess what that pasta was and since prior to that the waiter brought the wrong dish, we weren't even sure if it's what we ordered.

Overall I was quite disappointed. I guess I'm kind of cheap (lol) but it was funny to me that a restaurant that served super salty dishes didn't...

10月12號，我們預約了8:30的餐廳，當時店員告知廚房到9點才會休息。因為不熟悉路線，我們大概8:40才到達。一進門，一位男服務生有點不太友善地說：「廚房只開到8:30哦。」我問他：「不是說到9點嗎？」他才回應：「哦，抱歉抱歉，我腦袋有問題，太想下班了。」

我們坐下後，發現桌子還是髒的，直到另一位女服務生發現後才幫我們清理。坐下不到5分鐘，那位男服務生又來問我們是否準備好要點餐，我們說還需要再看一下，他卻用怪怪的語氣回：「喔喔喔…好。」

我們點了蜜瓜火腿、瑪格麗特披薩和肉醬手擀麵。吃蜜瓜火腿時，服務生突然把裝火腿的盤子收走了，而我的小盤子上還有蜜瓜皮。我只好再次向服務生要求盤子來裝手擀麵和披薩。

整個用餐過程中，我們的桌上都沒有提供杯子或水。披薩沒吃完，我們請服務生幫忙打包，結果回家發現披薩竟然被隨便對折放進盒子裡，感覺非常敷衍。

我能理解他們可能想下班，但這種態度讓整個用餐體驗變得非常糟糕。即使我們吃得很快，餐廳裡還有其他桌客人，我們並沒有拖延到他們下班時間，不明白為什麼要被這樣對待。

除了那位男服務生的態度外，其他人都很友善，餐點也很好吃，尤其是肉醬手擀麵，麵條扎實、有嚼勁。只是遺憾的是，我想這會是我唯一一次來這裡吃飯的經驗了。

On October 12th, we had a reservation for 8:30 PM, and the staff informed us that the kitchen would close at 9:00 PM. Since we weren’t familiar with the area, we arrived around 8:40 PM. As soon as we walked in, a male server, in a rather unfriendly tone, said, “The kitchen only stays open until 8:30.” I asked, “Isn’t it open until 9:00?” He replied, “Oh, sorry, sorry, my brain isn’t working. I just really want to go home.”

After we sat down, we noticed the table was still dirty, and it wasn’t until a female server noticed that she cleaned it up for us. Less than five minutes later, the male server came back to ask if we were ready to order. We told him we needed a bit more time, and he responded in an odd tone, “Oh… okay.”

We ordered the melon with Ham,a Margherita pizza, and hand-rolled pasta with meat sauce. While we were eating the melon with Ham,the server suddenly cleared the plate, even though the melon rinds were still on my small plate. I had to ask for more plates so we could continue with the pasta and pizza.

Throughout the meal, no cups or water were provided. When we couldn’t finish the pizza, we asked the server to pack it up. Once we got home, we were shocked to find that the pizza had been carelessly folded and placed in the box.

I can understand that they might have wanted to finish their shift, but such an attitude made the whole experience unpleasant. Even though we ate quickly, there were still other tables with customers, so we didn’t delay their closing time. I don’t understand why we were treated this way.

Aside from the poor attitude of that male server, the rest of the staff were friendly, and the food was great, especially the hand-rolled pasta with meat sauce, which had a nice, chewy texture. However, unfortunately, I think this will be my only visit to...

Having lived in Italy for 3+ years, I have a certain expectation when it comes to Italian food. We ordered Caprese Bufala and Prosciutto e Melone which were extremely fresh and tasty. I ordered Fiorentina bisteca which came perfectly cooked to medium rare with crispy exterior, que buono!! Our party ordered gnocchi radicchio e gorgonzola, which I was not planning to touch. I've always disliked blue cheese for its 'distinctively smell' and gnocchi for being too starchy. But oh boy I was wrong! Chef knows his pasta! Gnocchi was cooked perfectly and soft (note not mushy) I find myself mopping the plate w bread indulging the blue cheese sauce. Yes dish boy will be out of work soon...Thank you for this amazing dinner, we will be back...
