Gorgeous little Italian restaurant. We had a divine late lunch here to celebrate my birthday recently. The staff are lovely and very attentive but the food is top notch. Great ingredients and everything we had was delicious and well presented. Also nice to have a restaurant using white tablecloths
We visited this restaurant last night for a family meal with two children and three grandparents. The food was delicious. My 8yo and 10yo ate their spaghetti in record quick time! The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and wines. The atmosphere was relaxed- my mum loved the background music. We could hear each other talk. It was a real treat. Thank you!
I have been to Osteria Toscana many times, yet never left a review. (Therefore the 5* but please read the rest..) Service is always impeccable and they try to go above and beyond to satisfy your needs! As for the food - this is the first time I am left extremely underwhelmed, both the starters and main courses were just not it. I really hate complaining and have hard time returning a dish. During starters I thought: “oh well there is main course coming..” After a few bites of crab linguini I struggled to find any taste and needed a lot of salt to make it at least a bit palatable. When I finally worked up the courage to tell the server (after they took the food away, I know - my mistake) I was left with simply “it’s the pasta, we complained about it before”. I really like Osteria Toscana and hope that today was just an “off day”. I noticed the menu has changed and prices are actually cheaper, however I would rather pay a bit more if it means a fresher/tastier products just like before. I hope this feels like a constructive feedback, rather than a harsh criticism.
Wow! So this was a quick last minute dinner with my son. The restaurant was very accommodating and was very patient with our indecisiveness. When we finally knew what we wanted we were thoroughly impressed. From the quality of food, to taste, to service, everything was just perfection. A personal recommendation for their scallops with Caviar. Please please order this. Its one of the best things I've ever tasted. Complements to the chef for great preparation and great timing also (leaving a little gap between starters and mains so we weren't really full. A very nice touch). Great Service and will be back!
What an amazing find!!! Food is top notch. Excellent service. Family run business. Love the personal and friendly service. Can't recommend it enough.
Excellent New Year’s Eve dinner My partner surprised me and treated me to a very special Italian meal for the last day of 2022. Highly recommended - food was delicious and a very original presentation. Atmosphere was joyful and friendly. Staff members made sure we all enjoyed the time at the restaurant waiting for the new year to come… typical warm and happy Italian vibe….well done guys and thanks!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars for sure.
Had to wait an extra 20 mins for a table past our original booking time outside in the cold. The service was good. Classic Italian hospitality. Wine selection was pretty good. However, the food was a bit of a let down. Risotto was overdone. Gnocchi was gluggy. My first pasta was good, but another pasta on the table had to be sent back. It was clear that turnover is more important than quality at this place. Won't be rushing back to this one.
Traditional osteria with good quality food and amazing service. I had a delicious linguini nero di sepia with crab and the tiramisu was good enough to ask for a second one. The waitress was helpful and very kind entertaining my little daughter when she wasn't busy. We will come back and recomend.
Would I visit again: YES, definitely Was the food delicious: YES, outstanding Price-performance ratio: VERY GOOD Service style: KIND, personal, Italian hospitality Atmosphere: COSY restaurant, fine enough for a date, casual enough for a lively family dinner Comments: Osteria Toskana is really a nice place. The pasta dishes like lobster tagliatelle are amazing. The Ossobuco with milanese is one of the best. Tip: Ask for the daily specials.
