🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Osteria – A Culinary Gem on Biscayne
As one of South Florida’s top reviewers, I’ve dined across hundreds of restaurants — but few have delivered an experience as refined and memorable as Osteria, located at 8001 Biscayne Boulevard in Miami.
From the moment you step inside, Osteria strikes you with its elegant ambiance — modern yet timeless, intimate but lively, and impeccably curated down to the finest detail. The service is flawless, warm and attentive without ever being intrusive.
Now, let’s talk about the star of the evening: the Pappardelle Ossobuco. If heaven had a pasta course, this would be it. Wide ribbons of house-made pappardelle are coated in a luxuriously rich sauce and studded with slow-braised, fall-apart tender ossobuco — a masterpiece of flavor and texture. Each bite delivered depth, balance, and the unmistakable taste of quality ingredients and culinary craftsmanship.
Even the bathrooms reflect Osteria's commitment to excellence — spotless, sleek, and thoughtfully designed, a detail that speaks volumes about the overall care and pride this establishment takes in every aspect of the guest experience.
Osteria is more than a restaurant — it’s an experience. A place where food, service, and atmosphere come together in perfect harmony. Whether you're a seasoned foodie or just looking for an unforgettable night out, this is a must-visit destination in Miami’s thriving culinary scene.
Bravo to the entire team. Osteria has undoubtedly earned its place among the elite dining destinations in...
Read moreWhat a dissappointing experience. Visited yesterday evening from South Miami for Mother's Day after a recommendation and reading so many positive reviews. We were sat in a covered porch, back table which felt like a time out. Ambiance inside was completely different. We were unlucky to start our evening with a waiter lacking personality. When we ordered our drinks, we asked for a Shirley Temple for my daughters, but he was annoyed as to explain they don't offer drinks. Well I wasn't aware a liquor license is needed to serve Grenadine and Sprite. We started our meal with meatballs and fried seafood basket. I took a bite out of the meatballs which already had a horrible appearance and painfully swallowed it. The taste and consistency was disgusting. We ordered the Lamb Chops, NY Strip, Linguini with clams and the Cacio e Pepe for my daughter. The lamb chops and mashed potatoes at a $42 were served cold. The Linguini with clams were more raw than Al Dente and our Cacio e Pepe at $42 (for pasta and cheese) which we ordered for my daughter to have the experience was not prepared in front of us. They had arranged the tables in a way for the next set of guests that impeded the server from passing through with the cart. Sadly we were so dissappointed with the server and the food that we paid that almost $300 bill and couldn't wait to get out of there. A total rip off! There are so many great Italian places down South that take pride in...
Read moreWe visited for our 15th wedding anniversary and had one of the best dining experiences of our lives. From the moment you arrive the treatment is spectacular. Angelo greets you at the entrance and guides you to the perfect table. Our waiter was Christian who despite only being there a short time did an amazing job of walking us through the menu and daily specials with excellent recommendations. We took our time starting with the Wagyu Carpaccio which was absolutely delicious. It had the perfect balance of texture and taste in a generous portion. We then moved on to the first course of pasta, The Fig and Gorgonzola Ravioli which had robust flavors and an excellent blend of sweet and salty that just melts in your mouth. We then moved on to the star of the suggested entrees, Cacio de Pepe which was served in a cheeses wheel and finished off with fresh shaved truffle prepared table side. We finished our entrees with the smoked NY Strip. For dessert we had the deconstructed tiramisu which was also prepared table side and was full of decadent flavors and crisp freshness. Osteria is a hidden gem with superb service and a welcoming atmosphere complemented by great quality foods in a completely unique dining adventure. I would recommend to anyone looking for the perfect...
