l’Osteria is always fresh and always seasonal. The specials are special because they’re freshly bought and made in unique dishes. This place is a find.

I hadn’t been to TAO in quite a while, and my return made for a great night out. The ambiance was just as memorable as I remembered, and the service was attentive throughout the evening. Even servers covering other sections stopped by to check on me, a thoughtful touch that made me feel well taken care of. The wasabi honey sauce served with my Shrimp Tempura Roll was a standout. It was so good I could practically drink it! I also paired it with my sashimi, including the toro, and enjoyed every bite. My waiter’s recommendation of the Brooklyn sake was another highlight. Between the atmosphere, attentive service, and delicious food and sake, it was a great experience from start to finish.

We missed our train and were 15 minutes for our reservation. The hostess was lovely and told us not worry. We were seated immediately. The food was excellent - we shared the ricotta gnocchi and honey crisp apple salad. Excellent.

Our first time at this restaurant. The server was excellent and helped us navigate the menu. Food was some of the best Japanese I have ever had-- I have visited Japan over 6 times. We will definitely return on our next visit to NYC.
