Suzanne, Fiona, Kyle, and the rest of the Osteria team went above and beyond to make our big day truly memorable. We met with them a few times (and spoke with them many times) leading up to our wedding and they were attentive, thoughtful, and creative. They worked with us to map out exactly what we envisioned. With having never planned a wedding before, they were also invaluable with filling in the gaps on many of the things we just weren't thinking of. The staff, space, and food were tremendous. We have had multiple guests tell us that this was one of, if not the best, weddings they had ever attended. Hats off to the Osteria team and thank you again for making our big day so special!

We hosted our wedding here in the green house. Everything was incredibly smooth. The staff were very professional, the vibes were immaculate, and most of all, the food was amazing. Every one of our guests raved about the venue. Communication was very clear leading up to the event. We are so happy we went with Osteria for our big day!

Our wedding at Osteria was everything we hoped for and more! We knew we wanted a restaurant wedding and living in the neighborhood, reached out to Osteria as one of our first options. From the beginning, their communication was unmatched, with Suzanne and eventually Fiona answering every question we had along the way. We did a buyout to have the option of all the spaces, and were so glad we did! Fiona helped us plan every detail from food choices to timing of the evening, and we could not have hoped for anyone more helpful! When we walked in that day, the space looked amazing and was exactly the vibe we hoped for. We opted to add some florals, but the greenhouse was so beautiful on it's own and the perfect backdrop for our ceremony. The on-site team that day helped everything run so smoothly, and took care of all our family and friends with such amazing service. The food was the true highlight, and several people, both local and from out of town said it was the best wedding food they had ever had! People were talking about it for weeks to come, especially how unique everything was. Our hope was to have an intimate wedding that focused on giving our family and friends an amazing dining experience, and Osteria nailed it 100%

Our wedding was perfect!!! Guests raved about the food and drinks as well as the beauty of the space. We held our ceremony and reception (about 50 people) in the greenhouse and pergola and it couldn't have been better! Fiona and the events team are beyond helpful and great to work with. We did not use an event planner to help with the wedding and I'm glad we didn't- the Osteria team is really all you need! If you are looking to have a wedding in a gorgeous space, with out-of-this-world and non-traditional food and drinks- THIS IS YOUR PLACE! You don't even need to go crazy with decor because the space itself is so pretty. I can't recommend Osteria enough

If I could give them 1000/10 I would. Fiona was incredible to work with and was amazing at proactive communication. The rest of the event staff were top notch day of. We had so many compliments on how the venue looked (we did so very little, it was mostly the greenhouse and how they usually keep it), the food (loved by everyone, the care for allergies and dietary restrictions including vegan were unkatched and every single guest left incredibly full and happy), to the service (the professionalism, the knowledge of length to next course, how quick they were to turn around drinks/food) were the best. The space is gorgeous. The greenhouse holds 65 for seated dinner but we had 41 and it was perfect. There was room to make a small dance floor in the back along with our 2 person live band that made it a night to remember.

We loved Osteria as our wedding venue! Communication leading up the event was prompt and detailed - always answering all the questions we had. The on-site team the day of was also fantastic - we had mistakenly changed some seating arrangements and had forgotten to notify them. They were so patient and helpful as they made the change immediately. The ceremony and reception were beautiful and we cannot recommend it enough. The food was amazing and all of our guests have raved about how amazing the food was. The venue was also incredibly accommodating for vegetarians, even bringing out a separate dessert for the guests! The vibe was just what we wanted - a beautiful dinner party that allowed us to see and interact with all of our guests. Cannot recommend Osteria enough!

Fantastic communication throughout the entire planning process. The venue is gorgeous and the staff are well versed in how to make an event seamless. Could not be happier with our day.

Osteria is punctual, they are on time for everything. They were even super accommodating for us as well. They were so professional yet it feels like you’re working with the nicest people that they felt like friends! The ambience was romantic, the lighting was perfect. It was everything we wanted for a wedding: romantic, fancy, soft, garden-y and beautiful. Let’s talk about the food. Because that itself is a whole separate entity that elevated the whole experience. Everybody has told me how they’ve never had better food at a wedding! They also helped us averted a crisis that we didn’t really knew happened until my mom told me about it. We loved the food as much as our guests and will be coming back to relive the memories!

We knew we wanted a more intimate space for our wedding and had our eye on restaurants but still wanted the features of a 'typical' wedding -- space for ceremony, seated dinner for 110-120 guests, dance floor. We scoped out several restaurants throughout Philly and were losing hope on having a restaurant as our wedding venue, but then came Osteria! The restaurant itself is gorgeous and able to accommodate exactly what we wanted. The Osteria staff was amazing, but we have to give a special shoutout to Emma, possibly the best coordinator we could ask for! She was so responsive and attentive and really put us at ease for the entire planning process. We did the full restaurant buyout for our wedding so we got to enjoy the entire space. Food was absolutely delicious as were all the drinks - all of our guests were raving about it as well as the impeccable service. Osteria was also great at accommodating guests with dietary restrictions with delicious options outside of the main selections. Cannot recommend enough!

We can't thank Osteria enough for helping to make our wedding day so incredibly memorable. From communication leading up to the day, a healthy dose of patience accommodating our changes and requests, and a flawless execution of both the ceremony and reception, we couldn't have been happier. They struck an amazing balance between creating a formal-yet-welcoming atmosphere with a laid back, dinner party vibe. All of our guests raved about the evening -- book your wedding with Osteria and get the same feedback from yours!

We postponed our big destination wedding in January 2022 due to Omicron, but still wanted to wed on our originally planned date. We reached out to the team Osteria, and what a GREAT fortune that was. With just a few weeks' notice, we planned a *dream* microwedding, consisting of a dinner for 15 of our closest family and friends in their whimsical private dining room. We were able to choose from a series of dinner and drink options to fit our vision, landing on a delectable 4-course meal, family style, complete with a bar and champagne. We cannot overstate the quality of the food - truly top notch (and yes we love our food and have high standards). The service was simply impeccable - from start to finish. The team also helped us work with a local florist to include some beautiful flowers, and were very flexible with other little details to make our night very special (e.g. incorporating party favors for our guest, and a surprise virtual toast via a projector screen from those who could not attend in person). We really cannot say enough amazing things about Osteria and the team. It was so special. We are dining there for our first anniversary coming up to celebrate and are planning on making this a tradition. THANK YOU, to the whole team - simply wonderful!!!

I am so happy we had our small wedding (50 guests) at Osteria. We did a full buy-out and had our ceremony and reception in the greenhouse with a cocktail hour in the main dining room and also used the wine room in the back for our pre-ceremony ketubah signing. The space is beautiful and the food was amazing - 3 months later our guests are still talking about how good the food and drinks were. Their new event coordinator Emma was very communicative and easy to work with and the whole staff did a great job making sure that our day went smoothly and working with our other vendors.

We spent a lot of time scoping out venues in Philadelphia - everything from commonly known halls, to intimate/funky spaces. But when we walked into Osteria, we knew it was the place we were destined to tie the knot. The space is dreamy and romantic, but with tasteful modern touches. We did a restaurant buy-out, which was perfect for our smaller, intimate wedding. We wed/had dinner in the green room and used the inside bar and dining area for cocktail hour and dancing. The space was so perfect, we hardly had to do much. We just added small flower arrangements, an arbor and candles. It's no wonder the food was incredible (from appetisers to main courses) - the Chef/owner is a recipient of a James Beard award, among other honors. And truly, I cannot say enough about how lovely the staff was to work with. The wedding coordinator, servers, our bartender, and kitchen staff - everyone was just lovely. Please take the time to check out this space - it was one of the best decisions we ever made.

I can't recommend Osteria highly enough! We had our ~50 person rehearsal dinner in their greenhouse space and it was perfection. The space was gorgeous, the staff was incredibly kind and attentive, and the food -- the FOOD -- was absolutely fantastic. We hadn't been to Osteria in many years but hoped for tasty Italian food in a lovely setting. Our expectations, and those of our guests, who are a rather foodie crowd, were blown away - the food wasn't just tasty Italian, it was absolutely outstanding Italian. Every single dish was perfect. The drinks were amazing. Practically every guest still talks to us about the broccolini Caesar salad or the chicken liver pasta (just to name a few). They were also extremely accommodating when it came to figuring out the menu, for which we had several dietary restrictions. All that's to say -- we can't recommend them highly enough.

Perfect for a micro-wedding! We rented out the greenroom for 60 people and it was gorgeous and the staff was amazing.

Delicious food (especially the chicken liver rigatoni, branzino, and meringata), kind and knowledgable staff, excellent atmosphere in the Green House area where my wedding reception was, and a convenient location. Recommend to the highest degree either for a large-scale event in the Green House or an intimate lunch/dinner - whatever you choose, you'll love the food and the Osteria service.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Benjamin! We can't wait to welcome you back to Oster...
