Welcome to Madre Osteria & Bar! Located in Milton, MA on the ground level of Milton Landing overlooking the Neponset River. Offering a modern approach to classic, rustic Italian cuisine created by Chef Sam Curtis. Think house-made Foccacia and specialty grande meatballs.

The interior design of Madre is both elegant and casual. We offer a full bar and wine list. Seating options include tables, high tops, a bar, and a beautiful outdoor patio.

We are right down the road from our sister restaurants Lower Mills Tavern and Yellow Door Taqueria in Dorchester - perfect spots to grab a drink before or after your reservation!

    The food was adequate. The service was poor, but they tried with smiles. first course to fast, second course delivered while we still had plates in font of us. Water was replenished when asked. Wine glasses were dirty, but we didn't care because we didn't want to wait for another. Pasta dishes were too skimpy on marinara sauce. Keep trying. BTW, your marinara needs help, let me know if you need a lesson in making good Sunday Gravy.

    I organized a dinner here for my parents and my brother and his girlfriend. What a vibe. Great food, reasonably priced and the ambiance was loved by all ages in my family. Will definitely be back for date night with my husband.

    Not up to the level we have come to expect from here. Food was exceptionally (though it is not normally), bland, and the service was ‘ok’
