“ My first time dining at this restaurant and want to say what a great find this was for me! One of the owners, Mario greeted us like we were his friends and immediately felt at home. Starting off with their warm and delicious bread basked along with their roasted pepper dip was a nice touch. I ordered the gnocchi with a slightly spicey vodka sauce topped with burrata. The gnocchi was tender, light and fresh. The sauce was just right. My only comment would be that the pasta needed to be hotter in order to have the burrata begin to slightly melt. Mario came by to make sure all was going well and told me next time I should consider their signature pork chop. A little while later, Mario came by with his server to present a platter with a pork chop and all the trimmings for us to try! Wow, how generous of him to do this. And have to say, it was the most tender and delicious pork chop I've ever had !! That gracious gesture convinced me this is going to be one of my new spots to go to. Definitely order the pork chop!!! ”
“ Food and service were wonderful. It was crowded, which is a good sign, but so that made a little loud other than that all was well. ”
“ It is such a treat to go to dinner at O'Sfizio. Gennaro is the absolute best host ever and he is always going above and beyond for us to give us the perfect experience. I love that he is so energetic and always gets the attention of customers to join him in celebration and also clap to the music for a birthday, anniversary or any special occasion. It is truly one of a kind and so deeply appreciated! As per usual, we had phenomenal drinks and meals. Big shoutout to the chef for always cooking the food to perfection and also to the bartender for mixing the best cocktails. I am so excited to return again to ask what is new and hot since they always have new offerings, specialty cocktails and specials on the menu. If you are looking for your classic wine or beer , then this is also your vibe. So, we began with our beverages and then had our classics for appetizers. We had the baked clam oreganata, zuppe di mussels in white wine sauce, which is so juicy and then I wanted to get the shrimp cocktail. It was presented so beautifully over a tray of ice , so I loved that it was very fresh. We then had fresh oven baked classic margarita pizza, which was so hot and bubbly. For the entrees, we had the lobster ravioli and seafood risotto. Both were excellent and I also usually order the linguine vongole, which is so infused with incredible flavor in every bite because it is so perfectly spiced. For dessert, we were surprised and Gennaro added candles to celebrate with us. We also had shots at the bar afterwards and that was the perfect ending of the best day! ”
“ I ordered the pork chop that I can honestly say was the most tender delicious pork chop I've Ever tasted in my entire life!! Oh by the way that's a long time!! I'm 70 years old!! The service is top notch, Gennaro the head waiter is very accommodating!! If you want ambiance come to Osfizio and you'll experience La Dolce Vita without the flight to Italia!! ”

“ Came late on Good Friday evening for some dessert and cappuccino. The service, coffee and desserts were outstanding. Looking over the menu. I cannot wait to have dinner here. Will be back. ”
“ I went for a birthday party, and with 17 people I knew it might be tough for the restaurant, but let me tell you! The older Italian gentleman and his restaurant crew clearly have a passion for good food, drink, and atmosphere. It was divine! The attention to our table was top notch and the little things, like a round of complimentary pistachio shots for the birthday girl and her guests were just the cherry on top. Can not recommend highly enough. You're going to have a great time! -Joaquin ”
“ Good Italian restaurant. Ordered the double cut grilled pork chop with hot & sweet peppers. Juicy, tender & very flavorful. Service was equally as good. ”
“ We were given two free bottles of wine because they had our reservations mixed up and we had to wait a bit. Also, the kitchen was backed up and the wait was long for the entrees. It was very nice that they provided us with the wine to make up for it. Appetizers: Fried calamari Coconut shrimp- It was delicious however it only comes with two pieces of shrimp. Mussels Baked clams All of the appetizers were good. We loved their homemade bread too! Entree- Pork chop- the waiter said that we would want to hug him after that dish. Boy was he right! It was delicious. My husband ordered it. I wish I ordered it for myself. I had the Branzino special stuffed with crabmeat. Yes, it sounded delicious. However, there was absolutely no flavor to it whatsoever. I would not get that again. I would come back though since everything else was good! ”
