"My fellow patrons had the haddock which they said was good, my daughter had the chicken piccata which she said had way too much butter, it was good but less butter. I ordered the Basic hamburger which resembled a hockey puck with a bun that had soaked up a great deal of grease thus making it unedible and it was finished with a pile of French fries that tasted like they had been cooked 4 hours previously. Service is great but food has a ways to go. You may want to check out Jack n Joes right across from it. Wouldn’t go back again"

Our server was really excellent and the atmosphere is very elevated from other not your average Joe’s. It’s really lovely seeing the fire pit outside even from inside. It was a very festive atmosphere and good music and we just had a really great time. Always love the birthday experience here!

"I have dined here about a half dozen times. The food is great. The service is not. I was surprised to hear that anyone had good service here because I consistently have had slow, inattentive or down right rude service here. We go back because it's convenient and we work very close by, but our last experience we stood for more than 8 minutes waiting to be acknowledged, the server who finally came over was downright rude. We saw her drop things from someone's table and kick those things across the room. We finally got seated and waited another 15 minutes for someone to come to the table. Their patio had people out there but there was no one inside but it looked like they had only 2 servers working. Our sandwiches did not come with any pasta salad or anything on the side like they used to and our table was missing the two non-alcoholic beverages that were ordered until half way through the meal. My advice is to try Brelundi, perhaps you will have a different experience than we have had. If you like Italian food, the food is worth the wait. The bread is delicious, the pasta and sandwiches and salads are great. Just be aware that your service may be extremely slow, they will forget items and may be rude to you. Also, any time we have gone (at lunch time) I was berated and not seated for not having a reservation so I now make sure I call and make reservations before attempting to go there or we get take out."

"Osterio is a certainly fine dining but overall we were disappointed for a number of reasons. For each course, one of us was disappointed in what was served. I started with the Caprese salad , but instead of using succulent heirloom tomatoes, the dish used Tiny cherry tomatoes buried in a huge bed of greens, and the supposedly homemade mozzarella looked and tasted more like shaved Parmesan. The dressing was overly sweet, heavy and did not resemble balsamic vinegarette. Nor did the dish resemble any kind of Caprese salad that I ever had been served. It shouldn’t be called a Caprese salad in my opinion. My wife however enjoyed the Harvest salad. The bread seemed not to be fresh, and was on the stale side. For entrees, my wife got the Haddock with roasted mushrooms and potato purée special, which I must say was off the charts delicious. But I was disappointed in the Tuscan seafood stew. It contained shrimp, nicely done, but the rest of the dish consistent of rubbery, tiny calamari, tiny, tiny mussels in the shell, and a tiny piece of white fish, all buried in a spicy sauce with three or four large ciabatta on the top. Visually it was more appetizing than the actual experience of eating the dish. The service was just so so. We had to ask for bread, and it took and overly long time before we were able to place our order. However, someone did come over to take our drink order right after we were seated which was nice. On the plus side, my wife’s drink was superb. She got the Hayride, and it cleverly had a thin apple slice affixed to the lip of the glass with a close pin. Pretty cool. Bottom line for us: This restaurant is not cheap, and we expected a better dining experience for the price. We might return because of the Haddock dish, but otherwise not sure"
