"Osteria Posto – Waltham, MA – 7/14/2014 Beautifully decorated… Modern… Open and airy… All the elements of a fine steak house in their booths yet lighter in color with beautifully decorated and set tables thruout. These people get it. Not a person walked by my table without a smile and a hello… Ken the GM is a hands-on manager that really makes you feel at home. He clearly lives what he does and it shows. My server Robin was positively delightful! Knows the menu and with passion paints a mental picture of each dish so that you can almost taste it from description. My kind of server! They, like most, bring their bread in from Iggy’s and for good reason… Iggy’s knows bread… Four hearty slices...

Early Valentine's Day celebration did not disappoint. The atmosphere is quite a refreshing change to the latest noisy trends of today's restaurants. The seafood chowder was tremendous and the shrimp cocktail was quite fresh. The cocktails were a nice start and their modest yet impressive wine list made for choice selection...I suggest the Tuscan Syrah. The olive and bread course a nice selection....the desert was tremendous as well (there is always room for desert) especially if you take half the chowder home for lunch. We will be frequenting this newly found gem! Michael and Hugo were the consummate hosts...

Amazing seafood dishes... Service was Excellent! Fine dining at its finest! Servers are very knowledgable about the menu. I ordered the Rainbow Trout which was fantastic. Like any fresh fish, I encountered a few bones. Rob, our waiter noticed that I was sitting through my dinner, and asked whether I would like to change the dish, since he would have expected the piece of fish to be easier to manage. I told him that I was fine and enjoying the dinner, and there was no need to replace. Still, a few moments later, the General Manager (Gabby) popped out and informed me that she had removed my item from the bill! I am so impressed by the service... I would say that the service outshines the food,...

My colleague and I had an absolutely fabulous experience at Osteria Posto. The food is delectable, service is beyond attentive and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere is chic and divine in more ways than one. The ambiance and private function spaces are alluring and incredibly appealing, not to mention the opening of the outdoor patio space soon. Bridget and Shannon are a true delight to work with. Not only are they knowledgeable about the menu and space, but they truly go above and beyond to be attentive and available to clients in scheduling events, mapping out costs/packages, and are incredibly personable. They have an extensive wine list, and make their pasta and ice cream in-house. I woul...

"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"
