" This is a lovely spot if you're looking to unwind with some delicious food. The portions are generous, and I particularly liked their jalapeño gnocchi; it had a perfect level of spice! The only downside was that the service could be a bit slow at times, but overall, it was a nice experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just got back from Orso's and I can't stop thinking about the food! We ordered the Fumigato and it was incredible! So rich and creamy! The service was friendly, but slow at times. Still, the overall vibe of the place made it enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back with friends to share this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Orso's for brunch and loved the outdoor patio! The bottomless mimosas were a nice touch, though the food took longer than expected to arrive. Still, I enjoyed the ambiance and the quality of my omelet. The vibe was warm and inviting; absolutely perfect for a sunny day out. " (*Curated Review*)

" The vibrant atmosphere of Orso's is well matched by the quality of their food. I particularly loved the Tortellini and the service was immaculate.

" The outdoor patio at Orso's was a delightful surprise, just perfect to enjoy a meal with friends. I highly recommend the Bruschetta for appetizers and the Prosciutto pasta was a hit!

" Orso's is a gem! The pasta dishes were superb, especially the Penne Alla Vodka. I particularly appreciated the vibrant flavors and generous portion sizes, which made the meal even better. The wait staff were friendly, although a bit rushed. Overall, I'd absolutely recommend this place if you're in the mood for authentic Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed for the most part. We visited Orso's and thought the reputation would give us a great dining experience. The service was okay, but some dishes like the risotto were lacking flavor. The desserts could have been better as well. Maybe it was a bad day in the kitchen? " (*Curated Review*)
