I booked a table to celebrate the New Year's Eve with my other half: what a lovely evening! The food came quick, it was tasty and very generous portions. The staff was the nicest part of the evening: all the 3 people who assisted us (2 ladies and one young man) were so polite and and nice. 100% recommended from an Italian fella!

A large pizza/pasta restaurant located in West Quay just by the old Walls & Paddington! Plenty of pay parking nearby, we had arrived on a bus! We arrived without a booking & were told that if we wait at the bar they would do their best to accommodate the three of us. We ordered drinks & within 15mins we were seated. Great value, my pizza was massive & I only just finished it all! The bill includes a service charge & the friendly staff deserved it, they were busy.

Lively atmosphere with upbebay music played at a reasonable volume, quick to be seated. Service speed okay, and coffee beautiful Pizza was absolutely huge, hung over the side of the plate, which did cause the cut of the pizza to not go through the crust so a little difficult to eat The Gnocchi was exquisite and will be coming back for more Overall a nice restaurant to dine in, reasonably priced with vegetarian, meat and fish options of pizza and pasta

My partner and I love L’Osteria, the price and quality of the food exceeds expectations and the service is special. Whenever we visit southampton we always stop off at this lovely restaurant. They are usually very busy so would recommend reserving a table beforehand but they do always accommodate even if you don’t. The pizza is delicious and huge, definitely the place for pizza lovers! The team are great and always helpful when asking for certain requirements e.g removing items or adding. Thank you Team for an amazing dinning experience, each and every we visit!
