It was closed, it looked out of business. Why did you accept my RSVP?

showed up at restaurant after making a reservation on OpenTable all the windows were taped up with paper. They went out of business, but decided not to put any notes on the window or block OpenTable.

This neighborhood gem will be greatly missed since they are closing this week. We’ll be on the lookout for the chef opening in another location. Everyone at the restaurant was mourning this loss but at the same time there was a festive mood with everyone celebrating their success and great service throughout the years. It was the best dining experience in terms of food, service and atmosphere. It was the most fun evening!!!! You’ll be missed. With much ❤️

Great little bistro with a cool vibe and friendly staff. Very modest, but interesting menu as well as wine selection. Our choices were absolutely delicious and we can’t wait to return with friends to share our experience. These folks definitely have it together!

We live in Sarasota but this was our first time at Osteria Southside. It immediately became a favorite. The food was great .... two of us had an excellent sea bass dish and the others had pastas they liked just as much. Katie, our server, was the best: cheerful and knowledgeable. We'll be back!

Didn’t think the chicken Parmesan was as tender as people were raving about. After we were serve, the waitress never came back to the table to ask us how things are.

One of the best Italian meals I’ve ever had. Certainly the best chicken masala. Meatball salad brought me back to my roots on Staten Island. Service was outstanding!!!
