Dined at Osteria Gente this past Saturday. My wife and I ordered from the specials of the day menu. Everything was superb. A selective wine list, and wonderful cocktails. The fritti calamari, shrimp and smelts, crispy, tender and delicious. Service was attentive but not in the way. A huge shout out to Abby, who was wonderful and helped make this a special night out. Liked everything about our dining experience that before leaving the restaurant I booked for a group of six two weeks out. Abby helped set that up too. So yes, obviously I would recommend you try Osteria Gente. Can't wait for our return visit.

Visited Osteria Gente last evening with a large group. Menu was preselected for us. We indulged in a fabulous selection of appetizers, salad, pasta, steak, vegetables and dessert platters... oh and of course beverages! Service was incredible (met the owners, whom gave hugs all around, allowed us to give our compliments to the chef and enjoyed in some chit chat with us). It is family friendly but has a truly elevated experience. Worth the drive back!

Beautifully home-made lasangna and focaccia! Chef, thank you and blessings to Osteria Gente for helping adaptive athletes have some delicious food to keep us riding! Your charitable kindness will not be forgotten. You know the food is good when you don't have time to take a photo before all the plates are clean!

When you have Italian Familia taking care of you, your hearts and bellies will be full! Absolutely grateful for the support to a growing beautiful sport community of an adaptive bike riders! Your charitable donation of amazing Italian food was able to help both the athletes and volunteers full of energy.

This is a charming and cozy spot that offers a refined dining experience. When we visited, the location wasn’t too busy, allowing for a relaxed atmosphere. The service was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff who were genuinely helpful. While the exterior of the building appears a bit dated, the interior has been thoughtfully renovated and feels modern and well-maintained. The crowd had a family-oriented feel, complemented by a mix of professionals. The noise level was pleasantly low, making it easy to enjoy a conversation without raising your voice.

I've never been here before and I'm contemplating on whether I should ever go back. I wanted my steak medium and it was not. It was also very chewy. The service was extremely extremely slow. We had to ask several times to get some items and they still messed it up. Even the bill was wrong. That pasta was good. I think they noticed that the overall service was poor, so I would have thought that they would have at least offered some type of a complimentary drink at the end of our $1, 400.00 meal (not that we were expecting it) , but they didn't.

Unassuming from the outside but once inside it feels warm and inviting. From the in-house baked bread, to the dishes that are curated seasonally, this place never fails. Cold seafood salad is a must!
