Osteria Reviews

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!

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!!

I had a small wedding of about 60 people at Osteria! I worked with their event planner, Fiona, who was great and super responsive. The staff was amazing and made us feel special and taken care of the day of! We rented out the greenroom and it was perfect for a small wedding.

We postponed our big destination wedding in January 2022 due to Omicron, but still wanted to wed on our originally planned date. We reached out to the team Osteria, and what a GREAT fortune that was. With just a few weeks' notice, we planned a *dream* microwedding, consisting of a dinner for 15 of our closest family and friends in their whimsical private dining room. We were able to choose from a series of dinner and drink options to fit our vision, landing on a delectable 5-course meal, family style, complete with a bar and champagne. We cannot overstate the quality of the food - truly top notch (and yes we love our food and have high standards). The service was simply impeccable - from start to finish. The team also helped us work with a local florist to include some beautiful flowers, and were very flexible with other little details to make our night very special (e.g. incorporating party favors for our guest, and a surprise virtual toast via a projector screen from those who could not attend in person). We really cannot say enough amazing things about Osteria and the team. It was so special. We are dining there for our first anniversary coming up to celebrate and are planning on making this a tradition. THANK YOU, to the whole team - simply wonderful!!!

I can't recommend Osteria highly enough! We had our ~50 person rehearsal dinner in their greenhouse space and it was perfection. The space was gorgeous, the staff was incredibly kind and attentive, and the food -- the FOOD -- was absolutely fantastic. We hadn't been to Osteria in many years but hoped for tasty Italian food in a lovely setting. Our expectations, and those of our guests, who are a rather foodie crowd, were blown away - the food wasn't just tasty Italian, it was absolutely outstanding Italian. Every single dish was perfect. The drinks were amazing. Practically every guest still talks to us about the broccolini Caesar salad or the chicken liver pasta (just to name a few). They were also extremely accommodating when it came to figuring out the menu, for which we had several dietary restrictions. All that's to say -- we can't recommend them highly enough.

We spent a lot of time scoping out venues in Philadelphia - everything from commonly known halls, to intimate/funky spaces. But when we walked into Osteria, we knew it was the place we were destined to tie the knot. The space is dreamy and romantic, but with tasteful modern touches. We did a restaurant buy-out, which was perfect for our smaller, intimate wedding. We wed/had dinner in the green room and used the inside bar and dining area for cocktail hour and dancing. The space was so perfect, we hardly had to do much. We just added small flower arrangements, an arbor and candles. It's no wonder the food was incredible (from appetisers to main courses) - the Chef/owner is a recipient of a James Beard award, among other honors. And truly, I cannot say enough about how lovely the staff was to work with. The wedding coordinator, servers, our bartender, and kitchen staff - everyone was just lovely. Please take the time to check out this space - it was one of the best decisions we ever made.

We can't thank Osteria enough for helping to make our wedding day so incredibly memorable. From communication leading up to the day, a healthy dose of patience accommodating our changes and requests, and a flawless execution of both the ceremony and reception, we couldn't have been happier. They struck an amazing balance between creating a formal-yet-welcoming atmosphere with a laid back, dinner party vibe. All of our guests raved about the evening -- book your wedding with Osteria and get the same feedback from yours!
