Fodor's Expert Review Osteria 177

Modern Italian
Fodor's Choice
This might be the only local Italian restaurant that doesn't offer pizza or spaghetti. Instead, Osteria serves seafood from all over the world, meat, and pasta made on the premises. Northern Italian owner and chef Arturo Ottaviano offers authentic regional cuisine like grilled branzino filleted table-side and beef tenderloin with a cognac-and-green-peppercorn sauce.
