Tasty Venues' Osteria Rita is now serving our fall and winter menu, full of delicious new options. Our setting is quiet and intimate, perfect for conversation. Special culinary events are posted on our culinary events calendar at www.MyTastyVenues.com. Tasty Venues believes that the universal language of food is a way to bring people together. By exploring the delights of the table, we not only nourish our bodies, but we also nourish our spirits. Tasty Venues was established to share beautiful foods and experiences in recognition of the connections we create around the shared table. Come try Chef Cinzia's superb creations!

Please be advised that we do not have a children's menu, highchairs, or booster seats. In consideration of our guests who prefer an intimate/romantic/quiet conversation dining experience, children under the age of 10 will not be seated during dinner service because our small size precludes the ability to adequately accommodate them.

Service was rather slow, but it's understandable when you consider it's basically one person in a kitchen the size of something you'd like at home. That said, the food is terrific. Even better that it's interesting food, too (not the same stuff you can get anywhere). The wine was extremely reasonably priced as well.

We love Tasty Venues. We moved a bit further away and so we don’t get to it as often as we did in the past, but the food is always amazing. One of our favorite spots.
