The place was genuinely romantic and inviting. The hostess was sweet and our waiter Alexander had an italian accent! He was attentive to our needs. The lamb ravioli was delightfully delicious! First time i have ever ate that in my life, and the chef did not fail to meet my non existing expectations. My husband had the lobster ravioli, and that was exquisite as well! We got to see a small bickering between the elder gentleman and a passerby as we had taken an outside table in the rear corner. It was a great to see some action... read more
The service was wonderful, but I thought the food was average and quite expensive. I ordered the Osso Bucco with risotto and the osso bucco was tender and yummy, but the risotto was sub par. It was advertised as saffron risotto and I didn’t recognize cheese or saffron. My company ordered the gnocchi and it was much tastier but was lacking a little salt. Both dishes lacked salt actually. Not bad, but also not as great as what you could get in Little Italy.
Busy and fun Convenient Average Italian food and service
The food was great, the customer service was excellent. It was a busy Valentine night but they did a great job and where very attentive . The restaurant was clean . I would come back again for sure.
We visited Osteria Panevino based on the recommendations of others and are so happy we did. The service provided was simply exceptional. I do not use that word lightly. Our waiter and the supporting wait staff were superb - start to finish. The wine list is very good and the food menu is "just right". There are not too many choices but just an excellent assortment of options. The meat and cheese board appetizer, which also comes with sliced pear, spiced nuts, dried berries and a glaze, is something to write home about. Crab ... read more
Good food. Good service.
The food was amazing and the service was spectacular. The only issue we had (our own fault since it was Valentine’s Day) was that the seating was very cramped and it was extremely loud. Other than that, there were no complaints or issues at all.
Best wine I had at a restaurant, nice service and great atmosphere
Great meal, great service! The Osso Bucco was excellent
