About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Great for outdoor dining
Osteria Applausi opened in Old Greenwich in 1994. Each customer is treated like family. Our food is authentic Italian food requiring only the finest and freshest ingredients, every cut of meat and fish is hand-selected and Maria makes handmade pasta daily. If you want to experience a true taste of Italy and be treated like one of the family, come to Osteria Applausi.
Beppe Cornacchia, co-owner and manager of Osteria Applausi, has been a vital part of the restaurant since 2002. Prior to managing Applausi, Beppe lived in Tuscany since 1985 and worked in many successful Italian restaurants. He brought his vision of La Cucina Italiana to Fairfield County. Beppe also orchestrated the beautiful renovation of Applausi in 2010 to making it more metropolitan and giving it a sleek New York City feel in Old Greenwich.

    Food was great. My friends from Long Island thought the food was outstanding and we've hit all the local restaurants over the years.

    LOVE Applausi! Always treated as family when we go. We enjoy bringing friends there for a first time experience. During the warmer weather sitting outside on the back patio is a wonderful option. Food, service, dessert, drinks all top-notch!

    Consistently great! Love, love, love the pork chop! Veteran wait staff. Better food than Valbella although less specials and less of a “scene”.
