We had a great meal—we forgot it was BYOB but that was okay. We ordered hummus that never arrived but we were so full by the end of the meal it didn’t matter anyway. We weren’t charged for it. Really really good food!!

We met with 2 of our best friends and enjoyed an absolutely wonderful evening and meal. The service was fantastic from start to finish. We enjoyed the Crab Bisque. Then the entrees were just fantastic. One was the Snapper special, another was the tortellini special followed by 2 chicken piccata entrees, which were all absolutely amazing. We highly recommend Osteria Ama to all those wishing to enjoy a wonderful and delicious Italian meal!!!

Food was fabulous! Prices are reasonable. I suspect they were a little short staffed with service but it was still acceptable, but not really attentive. Music was a little loud for our conversation but not enough for us to ask for it to be lowered. We will definitely return and are thankful you are here for us to enjoy.

The food was excellent. Our server wrote nothing down and had the order correct for 8 people that had several changes to the dishes compared to the menu offerings.

This is the second time that we’ve been to Osteria Ama. Both times we truly enjoyed our meal. However, the second time we went they were low on staff and there was a lot of wait time. The waitress that was there did an excellent job serving everyone. We will definitely go back.
