" I have mixed feelings about Osteria del Pastaio. The food was authentic and delicious—especially the truffle pasta! However, the service we received was quite slow, and we spent too much time just waiting for the basics like water refills. The ambiance is inviting, though, and the food really delivered. " (*Curated Review*)

" Enjoyed a lovely evening at Osteria! The truffle pasta, while delicious, was definitely heavy. The ambiance was perfect for a cozy dinner, and the staff was attentive throughout. It was pricey, but definitely a treat worth indulging in every once in a while. " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I chose Osteria for our date night, and it was brilliant! The atmosphere was cozy, yet refined. The cheese wheel pasta was definitely the highlight. My only complaint was that other tables received their appetizers before us, which made our wait feel long. Overall, I would definitely go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" A richly deserved five-star experience! The truffle pasta prepared in the cheese wheel was a chef's masterpiece. Enjoyed the restaurant's cozy atmosphere. However, be cautious with charges; we ended up with a surprising add-on to our bill. Overall, it was an exceptional meal that I’d recommend to anyone willing to splurge a little. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ordered the signature cheese wheel and it was everything I expected! Flavor-packed and delightful. I also tried their famous tiramisu, which was to die for. Overall, great service but the restaurant is quite noisy. A solid experience just off the busy streets. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Osteria del Pastaio was delightful! The atmosphere was inviting and warm, perfect for a cozy dinner. I had the Pecorini Al Tartufo Nero cheese wheel pasta, and it certainly lived up to the hype. The staff was attentive and friendly. For dessert, I highly recommend the passionfruit cheesecake. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved Osteria del Pastaio! The atmosphere was elegant yet warm. I can’t stop thinking about that cheese wheel pasta; it’s a must-have! The only downside was the price, which was a bit steep, but I'd say it's worth every penny for that experience. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)
