"Large ambience, gigantic menu and authentic Italian cuisine. The location is a complex with respect to the traffic jam from Mallory Square and free parking. A window seat near the ocean would not be so important to me bc the view is not significantly improved. Our table in the second row was beautiful at sunset. I thought our Christopher server was more attentive. His greeting came in the form of an apology, about 7 minutes after sitting. So we sat there a few minutes before he actually came back, said hello, imagined and took a drink order. Fortunately, the drinks arrived quickly. I recommend the Lemon Drop cocktail, and my husband was glad to get a simple old Miller Light, although there were many craft beers to get from. The buffalo mozzarella salad was fresh and tasty, the scallops were perfectly cooked, and I doubt that there is a better lasagna. These Italian restaurant chains cannot touch this. Go to Open Table to search for a reservation in Trattoria Oceanside before you think you need. You're very busy."
