    Osteria Nando is one of the best kept secrets in New York. Don’t let the scaffolding outside scare you away. The menu is packed with terrific options that are reasonably priced and expertly prepared (the scallops appetizer is a personal favorite). What makes this place so special, however, is the charm of the owner who goes out of his way to make every guest feel special particularly on special occasions. You can have a different dish every day without going wrong. I recommend Osteria Nando with the strongest enthusiasm! Don’t miss out

    I returned to Osteria Nando because of our visit just a week earlier. Again, the food and service did not disappoint. Everything was expertly prepared. Service is top notch and the ambience is perfect for a romantic dinner or a small gathering with friends and family.

    From the moment we stepped inside, this charming little Mediterranean restaurant felt like a true gem. The service was impeccable – attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Our server offered wonderful recommendations and made us feel right at home. And the food? Absolutely delicious! The beef Bourguignon was rich, tender, and deeply flavorful, while the chicken Parmesan was a comforting classic done perfectly – crispy on the outside and wonderfully saucy. Even the Greek salad was fresh and vibrant, a perfect accompaniment to our meal. To top it off, the bottle of Pinot Noir we enjoyed was a lovely addition to the evening. This is the kind of place where you can relax, savor fantastic food, and truly enjoy the company. We can't wait to return!

    First time at this restaurant, and we really enjoyed it. We had hummus, chicken and one of the steak dishes, enjoyed all of it. Service was pretty good, and since the restaurant wasn't full, we could talk comfortably. A solid neighborhood restaurant.
