We dined at Sette Osteria on Christmas evening, and it was really busy. Thankfully we had a reservation. The hostess asked if we would be willing to sit outside, which we initially agreed to, but after getting out there, we reconsidered. It was stinky, cold, and had zero ambiance. Thankfully we didn’t have to wait long after telling the guy lighting the heaters that we would prefer to sit inside to get a table. I was very pleased with the choice to move. Inside was so much nicer! The food was delicious. The service was mostly to be anticipated for a busy holiday; we ordered a bread basket that never came, but it was taken off our bill. It was a lovely Christmas dinner.
