Been waiting to try this place for a few months and finally made it. The house Chianti wine was great and complemented our carb overload very well. The two things I recommend and tried were the Spicy Rigatoni and the Pepe-roni pizza. I recommend sitting in the patio as it’s nice, especially on warm summer night. Will definitely be back to try the other dishes.

Food is great. Service is great. Sitting outside is fabulous. Cannoli was PERFECT. The best I've ever had. Pizza is so thin and crispy, but not heavy. The meatballs were fluffy. Everything well-seasoned and well-cooked.

Everything I tried was absolutely delicious—except for the fries, which could use some improvement. The pizza is outstanding, the cannoli are fantastic, and the kale salad is . If the kitchen can elevate the fries to match the quality of the other dishes, this place will be perfect!

Came here for a girls night out and had a great experience. Our server Andrew was kind, attentive, and made sure that my dietary needs were taken care of. I’m gluten and dairy free and was recommended the Mandilli pasta with no cheese and gluten free noodles. It was the best pasta I’ve ever had. Thank you Ospi and Andrew for such a great night!

I had such a great experience at Ospi. The food was amazing, the crispy provolone was super unique and so good, and the spicy rigatoni was honestly one of the best I’ve had. The tableside tiramisu was not only delicious but also really fun to watch them make. Our server was great and the overall vibe of the place was really nice. I’d definitely go back!
