Great food and the service was phenomenal! Our waiter was very knowledgeable and timely. Our water glasses were always filled by the water boy. It was my birthday and they even gave me a birthday cannoli! That made it extra special!

We had a cocktail and then decided to eat in the bar area. The bartenders were friendly and informative. Our server/bartender, was Sapporo (sp?). She was great, and there when we needed her. We ordered the tuna won tons and lobster bisque to start. Both were delicious! I had the crab stuffed halibut and my wife had the torchio pasta. Both were tasty, and large portions. We received a nice size pour for the wines we ordered. The room had a nice buzz on a cold evening. Will definitely be back.

As always, the food was excellent, and the halibut/crab special was perfect. The only complaint I would have been that the lobster bisque I wanted never arrived. The server was tremendous and the bar responsive to requests for additional drinks. I highly recommend this venue for anybody in the Louisville area seeking great seafood.

We went to kick off our New Years Eve celebration and it was the best meal all year! The food was exceptional especially the lobster rolls. The service was outstanding. The wait staff was very attentive and knowledge (shoutout to our server, Judy). The chef and manager even came by to say hi to us and wish us a happy new year. My girlfriend got the crab stuffed halibut and is still talking about it the next day. I ordered the ciopinno and it was so flavorful. Overall very excited to find this restaurant and we will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

The oysters are great, it is a beautiful place. We went on a holiday and the service was very slow. We did not get our wine until we finished our oysters. There was a bottle of wine mistakenly added to our bill and we only had individual glasses.

What an amazing New Year's Eve experience, and the really cool thing is the as always Osteria Italian Seafood owner Jarred Fox Matthews kept his regular daily menu, and added a couple of great specials but did absolutely zero markup. Top to bottom , Chef Seth and his team as well as the front of the house crew preformed at a 5 star level as always. In a foodie city busting at the seams with so many amazing fine dining choices, this hot spot holds the flag at the the top of the heap.
