" Dining at Ostia is always a highlight whenever I'm in Houston. The fresh ingredients and unique dishes make it a memorable experience every time. This time I forced myself to try the tiramisu, and I was not disappointed! Can’t wait for a return visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, Ostia is a lovely dining spot! The employees were kind and helpful, offering great recommendations on the menu. However, the Orecchiette was ultimately disappointing – it was bland and uninspired. I had a great time regardless! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious! The flavors really came to life with the dishes we ordered. Every aspect, from the appetizers to the dessert, was incredibly well executed. I particularly enjoyed the calamari and the stuffed peppers. The staff was friendly and the environment warm and inviting. Will be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful evening! From the moment we walked in, the hostess was welcoming and the vibes were right. I had the fried calamari, which was crisp and flavorful, and followed up with the pasta special which was divine! Every bite was a treat, and the ambiance made it all the more special. Worth every penny in my opinion! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, I was intrigued by the restaurant given its high ratings. However, my experience was hit-or-miss. While I loved the ambiance, my steak was more on the rare side when I ordered medium rare. The service was friendly, but the food took longer than expected to arrive. Not terrible, but not as fantastic as I had hoped. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was lucky enough to experience Ostia while visiting, and it exceeded my expectations. The pasta was freshly made and the flavors were exquisite. The ambiance was also quite inviting with a great selection of wines. I'll definitely make this a regular spot on my visits! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was rather disappointing. The food was not as good as I anticipated, especially after seeing the excellent reviews. My pasta lacked seasoning and the service felt slow despite the restaurant not being too busy at the time. I hope this was just an off night before I consider returning. " (*Curated Review*)
