Slightly crackpot. A good, fun underground Italian restaurant where parties can have a good no frills laugh and really good food for the prices charged I.e quite reasonable. Have always had a great time there and paulo is a great host. Enjoy it
Food here was great, we had a shared starter that was full of taste (octopus salad was definitely different but very tasty). Then had Italian sausage meat rissotto and a pizza (roughly 12") for mains. Both full of taste but couldn't finish them so took them home.
Restaurant itself has a upper and slightly lower level separated by small stairs, the lower level is where you can bring your dog in through the back entrance as well away from other diners.
Great service from the staff as well, I definitely be returning here
A little confusing as my other half thought he had booked a traditional, quaint, brick lined Italian so when we arrived and walked into this large space that was not remotely quaint was a bit of a surprise
Having committed to stay we ordered drinks, my other half ordered steak which we were told would be half an hour wait but it was a little longer than that.... However it was worth the wait as the food was sooo good!
I had the king prawn risotto it was so tasty and my partner reckons it was the best steak he'd eaten
The decor could be better... The chairs weren't that comfortable and the space lacked atmosphere, felt more like a canteen.... But the food and service were fab!!
The staff were brilliant and the food was delicious and really big portions. The restaurant was spacious but echoed quite a lot and got really noisy as it got full. Would visit again.
Me and my boyfriend came last night and wow the food was amazing. The service was impeccable, all the staff did an amazing job especially on such a busy Saturday night. The only downside was an extremely rude customer shouting at the owner from outside but that is no fault of his or the staff. I can see he left a horrid review about this place but don’t let him detour from this hidden gem. Will be back soon for more
We saw someone eating the platter as we walked past and thought we would give it a try. We were not dissatisfied. The food was fantastic and if we’re are in the area again we would definitely call again.
Duck is my favourite dish of all times. But I'm always weary ordering it, because if it undercooked it's raw, and if it overcooked it's tasteless. This, my friends, was a perfectly cooked duck breast. To the T.
Perfect texture, perfect temperature,flawless taste. Heritage carrots and mash potatoes, a lovely jus to compliment it, I have to say it was one of the best meals I've had in a while.
Love the vibe in the restaurant, drinks came almost instantly, staff is amazing.
We waited a bit for the mains, but it's understandable and completely worth it.
Generous portions and reasonably priced gins.
My first time here, won't be the last ❤️❤️
Really good family restaurant, with a great variety of options to suit everyone. We visited as a family of 5 adults and there was something on the menu for each of us. From the starters to the main courses everything was of a good standard. The waiting staff were lovely, helpful and patient.
Lovely risotto with king prawns and lobster bisque at Osteria today. Staff were very friendly as well. Was a but too full to eat all my dessert which was lovely.
Very buzzy atmosphere. Waiting staff were attentive without being intrusive.
Food was amazing ! Pork bits to start, loads of flavour and seemed popular by the number that went past to other tables!
I had fillet steak and it was super tasty and tender, nicely presented with an array of veggies. My friend had the traditional carbonara and said it was very nice.
Liked the blackboard of desserts, can recommend the Nutella pizza for pudding!
A nice evening out 😊
Osteria v2.0 is proper Italian food, in the heart of Shrewsbury. The service was fantastic and the atmosphere was relaxed and warm. Everyone in our group enjoyed the delicious food and being Italian, I can honestly say their dishes were very authentic and good value for money too. I will definitely be back with the family.
