Excellent Italian spot in Westwood NJ!

Celebrated my birthday here and the food was good but not worth the price. We started with the calamari which had an amazing butter sauce paired with it. For entrees, I got the branzino. It could have had more flavor but I liked how it was cooked. It came with soft squid and mussels as well, so you would like this if you like seafood. Parents got sole and steak, though the portion size of the steak was very small which was disappointing considering the price. We ended with an apple tart and banana bread which were good but I wasn’t blown away by either. Favorite dish of the night by far was the calamari. It was a positive experience but probably wouldn’t come again. For this price, I would rather go to other restaurants in North jersey

On a recent trip to New Jersey I had the fortune of being able to dine at Osteria Crescendo. My only regret is now that I’ve had their food, I will fiend and crave it for the rest of my life. The flavor profiles were so unique and complex. I have never had a better meal. I want to go back and try everything on the menu… however… I would happily eat the ravioli for every meal for the rest of my life. It was absolute perfection. I can’t wait to come back!.. or maybe you could open a restaurant in Florida??

Wife and I had an early birthday celebration! First time at Osterio. Waiter Jackson was knowledgeable and attentive to what we were looking for. Drinks were good and the food was fantastic. Try the Gnudi! Chef Robbie Felice and his team know exactly what they are doing! Definitely going back for other items we didn’t try.

I first met Robbie back in 2016, just before Viaggio opened. I wrote a story about his experiences working in Michelin star restaurants. In almost no time, he’s risen the ranks as one of the best chefs. While deciding on a place to dine for my birthday, I knew I had to check this place out. It truly sets itself apart from other local Italian restaurants, which are more Italian American. I highly recommend the ravioli, chicken milanese, calamari, potato croquette, and limoncello cheesecake.

A mixed experience… Positives: Nice atmosphere, our server was great and the tuna appetizer and brownie dessert were fantastic. Negatives: I feel we were rushed as no sooner had we ordered our appetizer than we received it – This was minutes after the complimentary bread and the mains were soon there after. The Octopus main had very little octopus and was not seasoned sufficiently in my opinion. Finally we were charged a credit card charge even though we didn’t use one!!!!!! When I raised this I was told there was nothing they could do?! Short term gain of $9 when I had just spent $250 for two people and now won’t return. Shame as I have just moved in to the town and would have been a regular.

Wow! That’s the feeling I was left with when tasting the dishes on our table. From appetizers to desert, everything was seasoned and prepared to perfection. Can’t wait to go back!

Italian food is very good and service is great. My only negative is their Signature 100 Day Dry Age Tomahawk Rib Eye Steak. I was expecting a little earthy funk, But the steak was inedible due to its tough chewy texture. It should not be offered on the menu.

I highly recommend this restaurant as we had Valentine’s Day here tonight. Although we were not fond of the raviolis, the Orecchiette was actually extremely good. My wife wasn’t too fond of the pork chop but it was very tasty. As for my steak it was really decent and had a lot of flavor as did the pork chop. Everything seem really good just desserts were a bit dry. Will definitely come back here for a pasta just not the raviolis. Our server was very knowledgeable about everything, I’m only giving them four stars because of the dessert and the cocktails were OK. Not really the best place for alcohol although the alcoholic beverage I had got was extremely strong. Highly recommend
