    I have never had a bad experience at OM. The service is incredible, staff is very kind and knowledgeable, and food is absolutely delicious. Overall I had a wonderful experience, and especially loved the table side cheese wheel pasta experience.

    Always enjoyable! AND we snagged an outside patio table. WooHOO! Osteria Marzano has become our go-to locally owned, non-chain, non-corporate neighborhood restaurant of choice. Cocktails, Appetizers, Entrees, and Desserts were perfect for a relaxing pre-Memorial Day Weekend outdoor Din-Din. Server EMILY was attentive, cheerful, and efficient.

    Fantastic meal! My spouse and I both had meat dishes - him a steak, me ossobucco. Both were amazingly tender. Dessert and wine were a great complement. This is quickly becoming one of our favorite date night places.

    Was a nice location, food was somewhat disappointing, and management was no where to be seen once we had an issue. This is not a place we would go back to again, because they did everything wrong.

    Great Mother’s Day brunch. Food and service were outstanding. Light music and lighting made for comfortable atmosphere. Arancini balls and calamari were great. As well as the brunch specials. Crab cake eggs Benedict and steak and eggs. Topped off with a nice Chianti. Great day. Highly recommend.

    A very enjoyable meal. The Prosecco was served with a container to keep it chilled. The server, Stephanie, answered all of our questions and made several suggestions to help us with our choices. We had a few minutes to sip the Prosecco and relax before the food arrived. All of the items were delicious and beautifully prepared. At the end of the meal, we had a couple of items to take home, but the other items were consumed. We have been to this restaurant several times and we will continue to return. Simply put, the food is very good and the overall experience is enjoyable.

    OM does brunch only for Easter, Mother's Day, and Father's Day with a custom menu for each. We shared a burata as a starter and then each ordered a a truffle oil cheese burger. The burger was so large, we each removed the tomato slice. It still was a mouthful and delicious.

    Fantastic food, perfectly prepared. Housemade pasta! Extensive menu and great service. It is a bit loud because the large bar takes up the middle of the restaurant, but it was busy so people clearly enjoy it. Nice hidden secret in an office building!

    Pros: Easy parking, complementary glass of champagne as we celebrated our anniversary, and the Cheese Wheel Experience was one of the best meals we have EVER had! Cons: OpenTable says to dress "smart casual," but every female patron had on either jeans or activewear leggings, so I felt way overdressed. Seating by the window felt detached and cramped. Overall, we were very glad we ate at Osteria Marzano and plan to return!

    Best happy hour and Italian food in Kingstowne. 5- star restaurant. Pizza is the best around. The food and drinks are amazingly good. . Every dish is great. The drinks never fail. Bartenders are always professional and always take time to understand what you want. Staff are all very nice and give excellent customer service. Favorite restaurant in Kingstowne. You will not regret going and enjoying their menu either just happy hour, dinner or both.

    Superior cuisine ; goods service; only negative: background music from the bar area, which was an annoying , repetitive, too loud techno-electric track! A much better mix of traditional Melodie’s and modern mood music would aid the ambience , in my view.

    We loved our dinner at Osteriw Marzano! The other reviews were right about the restaurant being hidden, and it is definitely a hidden gem. Food was delicious and service was great. We had the carpaccio, mussels, pepperoni and sausage pizza (add meatballs), one of the pasta specials (tagliolini al limone, I think—it contained shrimp, lump crab meat, zucchini, tomatoes, and a lemon butter sauce), and tiramisu. Everything was delicious but I think my pasta won the dish of the night. We were celebrating my husband’s birthday, and they made a point about remembering it and bringing ice cream dessert as well. It’s very nice when restaurants around here make a point to do something nice for special occasions like that. We will absolutely be back!
