Osfizio Staten Island Reviews
Came here for the first time. A really pleasant experience and very accommodating staff. Food was fresh and authentic. I highly recommend the sweet and sour calamari special.
Went in on Valentine's Day so obviously the price was hire ,had no reservations was met by a really nice casually dressed host ,and even though the place was packed he seated us within 2 minutes. The atmosphere was great with the host making sure we were ok, the food was absolutely great and even though we were not of a certain ethnicity the other 2 couples that were there that looked like us were treated with respect and with dignity it was truly an outstanding experience with truly delicious food,thank you to all the staff.
Amazing all around. Excellent food from appetizers to entrees. Everything was fresh and so well flavored. We had calamari, octopus, and Tomahawk steak (event the spinach side had awesome Dijon flavor). This just totally changed and elevated our neighborhood. Amazing service and beautiful decor. Super clean and just pleasant all around. It goes to the top right next to Giove and Pastavinos.
Every time we come to O’ Sfizio we leave happy. The food is great, the staff is friendly, the place is clean. All the things you want, close to home.
We planned a girls' dinner at ‘OSfizio and to say it exceeded our expectations is an understatement. The atmosphere and staff were welcoming and inviting, and the food was fresh and absolutely delicious. Gennaro was beyond attentive to our needs, recommending spectacular dishes and ensuring our plates and cocktails were full. We didn't feel rushed out at any point. We were welcomed like family. 🫶🏼 If you're looking for great food, a warm atmosphere, and a fabulous staff, OSfizio is the place to visit. You will not be disappointed~ We are already booking our February girls night. We can’t wait to go back!
O Sfizio is a very cozy, comfortable atmosphere, the owners Mario, & Sal are very nice, caring and treat you like family. The food is great and worth it 100 percent. The service is wonderful and one of the servers name Jerry is very friendly, respectful, and on top of his game. I would recommend you taking a date, your special someone or family here to experience the service, the atmosphere and the amazing food. I can promise you that you will not be disappointed at all! If you go there tell Jerry, Richie's Grandfather Scott, told me to come enjoy the services and excellent food.
We celebrated our American Assoc. of University Women holiday luncheon today and the food, service and ambiance was top shelf. Gennaro, the mgr. was amazing and so accommodating. I highly recommend this dining experience.
Great customer service , food , and everything was great. I had Gnocchi with Pesto Sauce was amazing. I also enjoyed their Crème brûlée amazing as well. Genaro I’m not sure if he’s one of the managers or owners but he’s a great guy , everyone is very friendly and food came quick. Overall recommend coming here.
We were in Cateret, NJ to see a show and were looking for a place in Staten Island to enjoy authentic Italian cooking in a neighborhood setting. After an exhaustive internet search we found ‘Osfizio. The place was busy with what appeared to be locals when we arrived and we felt welcome from the second we walked in. The owner Gennaro was extremely warm and personable. The wine and food were outstanding. If we could rate it higher than 5 stars we would. The bread and red sauce is off the charts as was the food. All three of us agreed our meals were delicious. If you want to experience the best of Staten Island authentic Italian food in a casual, welcoming, and fun environment visit ‘Osfizio! Gennaro your friends from PA will be back!
One of the most memorable experiences for my family and I. We choose Osfizio to surprise in laws with 50th wedding anniversary dinner. Food amazing, frozen espresso martini hands down one of the best, and service impeccable Gennaro the manager made a big impression on family and I and many never had been here and will return. Highly recommend anyone considering a party or dinner we were beyond impressed and happy we choose ‘O sfizio!!
Such a great spot! The food tastes homemade — the pasta was fresh, the pizza had the perfect thin crust, and everything was super flavorful. The staff was so welcoming and made us feel right at home. Good portions, fair prices, and just an all-around cozy vibe. Can’t wait to go back!
We tried this restaurant today for the first time and we were not disappointed. We told the staff that our daughter just performed in her first show, and at the end of the meal, they brought her dessert out with a flaming candle and sang “For She’s a Jolly Good Fellow. It was absolutely adorable. The food was incredible and the service was even better (Gennaro was a pleasure!) It’s hard to find an Italian restaurant on Staten Island that stands out from the rest, but this place is truly top-notch. We can’t wait to return!
Stopped in after attending a wake in the area. Ordered the chicken capricciosa with a nice spread of antipasto before the meal. Everything was absolutely fresh. Chicken cooked to perfection. My buddy got the sole almondine. Gennaro was great. Guys got a personality of gold. I would absolutely stop in again. If you are looking for great Italian cuisine & hospitality this is your spot.
1st time here. The food is unbelievable in how good it is. The service is above average. Excellent menu, I selected the papardalle bolognese and it was perfect. For dessert I had Baba Napolitano and it was a dream. Overall, if I could give the rare 6 stars I would. Very highly recommended.
My family and I were visiting relatives, and they brought us to ‘Osfizio. The food was absolutely delicious. We loved the appetizer specials. The service was great, and the ambiance of the restaurant was romantic and charming. We will definitely be back soon! Thank you for a wonderful evening.
Staten Island's newest hidden gem that won't stay hidden for long! Despite seeing a couple less than stellar reviews online, my friend and I decided to try Osfizio after it was suggested to us by a friend. From start to finish, the atmosphere, service, and food were amazing. It was clear that the negativity others expressed was simply just the typical kinks that need to be ironed out when opening a brand new restaurant...especially in a time where the world is short staffed everywhere you go and most people are more on edge than usual. From the moment we walked in the door we were treated like family with a warm greeting from our server Gennnaro. While the decor was hip and stylish the staff displayed old school manners by pulling out our chairs for us...a small gesture that makes a big difference in terms of experience. We both ordered drinks from the bar and they were made perfectly which started the meal off on a good foot. For appetizers we had the calamari fritti which was perfectly cooked and the buffalo mozzarella which was light and refreshing. For our main courses, I had the grilled swordfish which was out of this world and most certainly fresh; a concern I often have when ordering fish. My friend had the veal marsala which was delicious and perfectly seasoned. Throughout the meal our waiter was attentive but not bothersome and the staff cleaned our table between courses...another act that may seem minor to many but it's the little things that make a dining experience even better. The owner also came by to introduce himself and make sure all was well with our meal and service. Overall, I would definitely recommend Osfizio to anyone that is looking for a relaxing night out with delicious food and service. We will definitely be returning and will be recommending them to others.
This was my first time here, the food was delicious, service was excellent. Nice family atmosphere. The staff were very understanding of my two small grandsons getting antsy. The lobster ravioli was delicious with nice chunks of lobster. The bread is definitely the star of the show, I just wanted to soak up every drop of sauce with it!!
We got the chicken parm and linguini vodka. The bread and sauce they give to start was really good! The meatball apetizer was pretty good too. The chicken parm was pretty basic, nothing special but not bad just average. The pasta was good but a pretty small amount for the price. We got creme brule for dessert and it was also good but not great. Also just want to note that we sat in the outdoor area and it was pretty cold, the heat only worked part of the time
With reservations waited 30 mins for a table. Very over crowded.Prices were overly price. Requested shrimp with linguine instead of spaghetti and was charged an extra seven dollars. Asked for the check, and was given another tables check.The only good thing there was the entertainment with M & M. Great music,great singing.
