About

On WeddingWire since 2022

Osteria is a wedding venue and award-winning restaurant located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Executive chef and owner Jeff Michaud began learning his craft at just 13 years old in his family’s pizza shop. Led by the artistry of his grandmother Jacqueline and her showstopping wedding cakes, he graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in 1998. Winning the James Beard Foundation Award in 2010 for “Best Chef: Mid-Atlantic”, this culinary legend is sure to wow on your wedding day.

Facilities and Capacity

The building that Osteria now calls home was once a garment factory, offering the venue a historic, industrial-chic look with exposed brick and large windows. You’ll have a variety of spaces to choose from for your celebration, including the Greenhouse, Main Dining Room, Outdoor Patio, as well as private dining rooms. Osteria can happily host up to 150 of your nearest and dearest for your one-of-a-kind romantic reception.

Services Offered

No one will be leaving your wedding meal hungry with Osteria as your catering team. The meal can be stations, family-style, or a cocktail hour, as you desire. Their family approach to dining allows you to enjoy a wide selection of specialties from their free-flowing kitchen. Signature seasonal dishes include Chicken Liver Rigatoni with Cipollini Onions and Sage and the Lombarda Pizza with Baked Egg, Bitto Cheese, Mozzarella, and Cotechino Sausage. Meanwhile, the bar serves Italian aperitifs, classic and new, while a prodigiously-stocked cellar assures a robust selection of more than 400 Italian wines.

More than we could ask for!

Our wedding at Osteria was more than what we imagined! We were looking at various restaurant venues since we wanted more of an intimate dinner party vibe with elements of a ‘typical’ wedding - space for ceremony, seated dinner for 110-120 guests, dance floor. Osteria was one of the few places that could accommodate within our preferred budget. The restaurant itself is gorgeous and able to accommodate exactly what we wanted. Food and drink was impeccable, and service top notch. So many of our guests went out of their way to rave about it all. Thanks to Emma who really went above and beyond and made the entire planning process so seamless. She’s super responsive with great ideas!

Excellent food, gorgeous location, great service!

We loved Osteria as our wedding venue! Communication leading up the event was prompt and detailed - always answering all the questions we had. The on-site team the day of was also fantastic - we had mistakenly changed some seating arrangements and had forgotten to notify them. They were so patient and helpful as they made the change immediately. The ceremony and reception were beautiful and we cannot recommend it enough. The food was amazing and all of our guests have raved about how amazing the food was. The venue was also incredibly accommodating for vegetarians, even bringing out a separate dessert for the guests! The vibe was just what we wanted - a beautiful dinner party that allowed us to see and interact with all of our guests. Cannot recommend Osteria enough!

Osteria is the best

We love love that we picked Osteria for our wedding because it was the perfect place. They were so professional and the whole place is so beautiful. The ambience was so romantic and the pictures look so good in that lighting with the fairy lights. All my guest kept gushing about how beautiful the whole place is and also how AMAZING the food is. The food is so so so so good, that was the main reason we picked them but the service was incredible. We almost didn’t want to let people know about this gem and save it for ourselves but we love them so much that it’s only fair to give them the praise they deserved. The place is really amazing. We had a smaller intimate wedding and it was incredible. Cannot say it enough. Shout out to Fiona and the manager that day they made this day the most amazing day. They will accommodate it to however your vision is and we wanted something more laid back and intimate for conversations etc and they really delivered. We hope to come back to relive the memories!!
