Best Authentic Restaurants in Westlake

We had a reservation at Osteria Mozza but ended up getting seated about 30 minutes late—which was frustrating at first. But to their credit, the staff was super apologetic and offered us a complimentary appetizer, which was a thoughtful gesture and helped smooth things over. Once we sat down, the experience totally turned around. The food was incredible. The tagliatelle was rich and flavorful, but the standout dish for me was the beef cheek—melt-in-your-mouth tender and absolutely packed with flavor. Worth the wait! Despite the rocky start, the meal more than made up for it. Would definitely come back.

Honestly such a cool bar. Started waiting for our reservation by the bar area then was taken to our table out on the patio by the band. If you’re seated by the band it’s very loud for conversation but my party was there for a bday so we didn’t mind. We started with the octopus and eggplant dishes. Got the porterhouse steak a pasta dish with clams and of course desert. Everything was perfect and I CANNOT BELIEVE what we paid for what we got. BRAVO!

Server was amazing, best birthday brunch ever . Loved it will come back

Ryan was a true professional server. Knew exactly what we wanted before we did. Made for a wonderful birthday celebration.

Very Good Restaurant will dine again, They are experts of their craft as the pasta is cooked perfectly and ingredients are nice and fresh. I’ll definitely be back to try the Lasagna or Ragu. Very friendly service as well!
