Coppa Osteria is the perfect paring of food and lifestyle, taking its personality from the affluent, family centric West University, Southampton, Rice and Museum District neighborhoods. Its clientele is an eclectic mix of professionals, university academics and young families – who all seem to know one another. With craft cocktails and an extensive wine list, it's easy to find the perfect beverage to pair with Coppa's modern Italian cuisine. Neapolitan-inspired pizzas are some of the most popular items on the menu – the Coppa Pepperoni and Carnissima are crowd favorites. Diners also flock for the Fritto Misto, Burrata Tartufo and Spaghetti Carbonara (Coppa's signature dish). Complete with a lively bar scene and a large outdoor patio that lends itself to sipping rosé and taking in the surrounding neighborhood scenery, Coppa is the ideal setting for an intimate all-day dining with family & friends.

    Our waiter provided superb service and allowed us ample time to enjoy our meal. The food was amazing and reminded me of my trip to Florence. The wine selection can’t be beat and all at a great price point. Great restaurant!!

    This was my second time coming. This time I drug my hubs who is very picky about Italian food but it was my Bday so it was my pick and I wanted my Octopus. Usually, when I drag him somewhere new he just sits there and makes me miserable but not tonight. He enjoyed everything and never complained. I was shocked ! He got the Veal and said it was the best he’s ever had. We now have a new place to add to our rounds. I’m so excited ! My octopus was amazing as always and the calamari was great as well. We also shared a Cesar salad and loved it also.

    Coppa is always a great place to go. Food is great and the ambiance is wonderful. Our server had to be tracked down when it was time to pay the bill but it was a girls’ night out so he was probably just letting us enjoy the time together. The chicken under brick was delicious and gluten free. My friend loved her hanger steak. I didn’t sit on the patio but it is so nice!

    We really enjoyed our meal. The waiter was outstanding and the manager helped with the wine selection. We ate outside the night was beautiful and it kept the noise level down. The appetizer peppers and anchovies was delicious. The Ceasar salad was a little watery. The bolonese was very good but the veal was slightly over cooked. Overall we enjoyed the evening and can't wait to go back.
