Exceptional(1563)

$$$$Price: Moderate

• Italian • Salt Lake City

Booked 30 times today

Osteria Amore came to life because we believe in the power of food to change your day, or in our case, change your life. Owner Eduardo Daja has been working in restaurants since he was a teenager growing up in Italy, and his time in culinary school only strengthened his passion for food. After culinary school, Ed stayed in Bologna to work at a family-owned restaurant. He moved to Utah eight years ago, and found himself missing his first love, food. For the past three years, Ed has been managing an Italian restaurant while also maintaining a career in tech and finally made the life-changing decision to open his own restaurant. That big decision was made possible for Ed when he met Marco Cuttaia, Osteria Amore’s executive chef and partner. Ed’s training in Bologna, considered the food capital of Italy, and Marco’s upbringing in Palermo, known for its incredible street food, bridge northern and southern Italian culinary tradition in a way that’s never been done in Salt Lake City.

A favorite place in many cities for years. There was a miscommunication tonight with the kitchen but more than fully resolved and compensated. Excellent service and management!

Nice ambiance and good location. The service was excellent and prices not bad for an upscale restaurant. The appetizers and 3 of 4 mains were excellent. The Lasagna did leave a bit to be desired, it felt like a pile instead of a layered dish. Overall it was very good and I plan to return.

I highly recommend the cheesecake! The ravioli al funghi and the paccheri alla vodka was amazing! I would definitely go here again if the chance presented itself. Some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had anywhere!

Our server was beyond amazing. She was cheerful, informative, professional, and took initiative to make sure our order arrived with enough time to leave for our show following dinner. Additionally, all of the dishes (and beverages) we ordered were absolutely fantastic. It’s clear this restaurant knows what it’s doing, has good leadership, and the staff is happy. We’ll done, guys 👏
