Italian
Giorgios Bakatsias' inspiration behind his newest concept, Osteria Georgi, stems from a deep appreciation for his dear friend- the late, great George Tarantini, an Italian native and beloved soccer coach for NC state University, well-known for his love and respect for hospitality.

Osteria reflects the passion behind Italian cuisine and culture-
a daily celebration of life while gathering around a shared table, of enjoying the beauty in simply prepared hand-made pasta, locally sourced ingredients and vibrant flavors, in having gratitude for the local farmers, fisherman, and artisans from which it all came, and always- a love for great company.

    Overall great experience. Majority of wait and host staff were super friendly. Unfortunately, our waitress exhibited a condescending attitude and behaved as if she was doing us a favor by serving us. We will try again but hope for a different waitress.

    We had a wonderful experience at Osteria Giorgi! The service was very good. Our server was able to explain items on the menu well and his recommendations for both food and wine were spot on. He checked on us periodically without being intrusive. The food was outstanding! I would recommend the Sfornato di Parmagianno as an appetizer. Absolutely delicious and not too heavy so your appetite won’t be spoiled for the entree. My husband loved the Bisteca…perfectly cooked and seasoned!

    Absolutely loved it. The food was excellent. My husband had the prosciutto appetizer, the pork Oslo bucco, the gelato with espresso, and a cappuccino. I had the artichoke bruschetta, the lasagna. And tiramisu. The wait staff was superb and attentive. The price point for the quality was right on the mark. We will definitely return. The chef is to be commended!

The food is always terrific, the service great, and the waitresses and waiters friendly and professional. We would highly recommend Osteria Georgi for any occasion.

    Our experience with service as Osteria Georgi has been incredibly uneven. Last night was a good example. After ordering drinks and hearing about specials, our beer and wine came fairly quickly. Then it was more than 30 minutes before our server returned to take our order. When the restaurant is busy, it seems like they don't have nearly enough servers. The service is so frustrating that we don't go nearly as often as we might. The food is good, but the service is so spotty that it just isn't worth it.

    Outstanding dinner! Our server, Molly, was instrumental to our experience and the best server we can remember in a long time. She was personable, knowledgeable and offered the perfect recommendations for dinner and wine! What was remarkable is how the staff worked together - if my glass was low, someone walking by saw it and filled it - that was throughout the dinner -True Teamwork! The food was creative - I had Gazpacho with watermelon which was a sweet and slightly spicy pairing. Flounder Piccata was exceptional! I would make this a definite dinner spot when in the Raleigh/CH area!!!

    The service was very attentive. The location was perfect for a business lunch where conversation was expected. The noise level was low and tables were spaced so that discussions at one table did not impede discussions at others nearby.

    The arancini we ordered as an appetizer were good, but the pastas - linguini with crab and rigatoni with mushroom - were both just incredible bland. Very overpriced for what we got. Ambience is very nice and service was good, but the food was very poor.

    Osteria Georgi’s restaurant was beautifully appointed with cheque urban loft/mediterranean style and comfortable decor which made eating there a lot of fun. We went for an early dinner at 5:00 and found conversing was easy, wait staff was plentiful and carefully monitored our table with no intrusion.The food was delicious and memorable. The wines were a bit pricey, but were well stocked for good parings which suited our dinner. We really enjoyed ourselves.
