We had a reservation on Christmas Day . We arrived at our scheduled time and we were seated promptly. Hostess was really friendly and wished us a Merry Christmas. Our server, Savanna was super friendly and gracious. I ordered salmon and my sister had the eggplant parmigiana. Food came to the table pretty quick and everything was hot and delicious. It’s a little pricey for an everyday outing, but it was perfect for a special occasion. Would definitely recommend it.

Amazing first time experience from beginning to end. The hostess noticed our special circumstances and made sure to accommodate. This was the best date night my wife and I have ever had, as it wasn’t just a meal… it was an experience.

Great experience! Meal was perfectly paced; food served chilled or hot. Excellent service. Mussels and crostini were tantalizing. Mushroom flatbread was tasty. Apple & blue cheese salad and interspersed blue cheese crumbles were superb. Cannoli was the coup de grace. All to best to Osteria 2350 soon to be alumni!
