    I had spinach ravioli, and it was pretty good. Tiramisu was excellent.

    I've never been here for dinner but several times for lunch. What a treat this place is. The salads are large and delicious, and the pasta is just out of this world. I had one with sausage and asparagus and just fell in love. If you like authentic italian food this is the place on the peninsula.

    This is a very good Italian restaurant. Been going to Osteria for my mom's birthday for many years now. The food is always good, and the service excellent. My only complaint is that the tables are packed in pretty tight so it often feels like there's someone at your elbow.

    Try Osteria for a great dinner out in P.A.
