Osteria Italian Seafood 1211 Herr Lane, Louisville, KY 40222

"Had reservation but showed up 15min early thinking I would have to wait a little. Instantly greeted with friendly staff and was seated literally immediately. Started off with the Lobster Sliders (I'm picky on lobster rolls since I'm more of a crab person) these were without a doubt the best I've ever had. I would have been please ordering 2 sets just as a meal there were perfection. Wife ordered a bowl of the Lobster Bisque. Creamy, flavorful, full off chunks of lobster, and the pastry on top was a nice addition. Wife's entree was Mushroom Alfredo Rigatoni. Great portion size, creamy, rich and flavorful. Her only issue was there were a couple mushroom stems that were too tough to eat. I ordered Osteria Cioppino Fettuccine. Rich thick sauce, great ratio of spice, and loaded with seafood on top of fresh made fettuccine. I loved every bit of it. Finished off with Peanut Butter Creme Brulee the crunch on top was flawless, the smooth peanut butter flavor was surprisingly great, but the chocolate truffle center for us was very strong (were not huge on chocolate) but still tasted nice in small nibbles Croissant Bread Pudding. For a bread pudding this was the best I've had and the ice cream on top was a great additive to the treat. To end the night we will 100% be back, everybody was friendly, tentative, and the food was fantastic and well priced. I will without a doubt drive 40min any day for these lobster sliders"

"Went tonight and was absolutely amazing! Have been looking forward to finally trying couple things here. I did my research and picked out Osteria Cioppino Fettuccine which was a great choice! The appetizers were also amazing along with the wine. Tried all the oysters & the best I've had in Louisville ❤️ honestly I can’t wait for my next experience here!. Atmosphere was calm & service was great!"

"The server did an amazing job. Cheerful, patient, provided a lot of information about the menu and daily options. Surprisingly large amounts of seafood on the Osteria Fettuccine. Everyone enjoyed their meals. We got there at 5:45 so we got wine by the glass at half price before 6. Wednesday at 6 pm they were busy. For dessert, Our table of 6 split the cookies order and they were a hit. Warm, chewy and delicious."

"Wonderful dinner at Osteria from the appetizers to soup and main course. Most enjoyable dining experience in recent memory. Decor is lovely and welcoming. Service was excellent. We will be returning soon!"
