Osteria Italian Bar & Kitchen embodies a hybrid of a rustic Italian market, a fine dining restaurant, and a refined, late-night bar. Celebrity Chef, Fabio Viviani, has created a menu that includes over a dozen fresh homemade pastas, slow-roasted meats, wild fish and seafood, a generous pizza selection, and a hearty wine and craft cocktail collection. In one, harmonizing space, Italian classics are both elevated and celebrated.

Located in the heart of downtown Tampa, Osteria is rustic and refined in approach, and Italian in spirit. Guests can anticipate aromas of truffle, homemade Italian eats, an extensive wine collection and hand-crafted cocktails, and a dining experience to last a lifetime.

If you believe in this idea and vision, it's time to help us build the next great experience for our guests.
