"Osteria is a spacious Italian spot on North Broad that has a beautiful covered greenhouse. It's packed with flowers and a long bar, making it an easy and impressive place to drop in before a show at The Met. The cocktails, pizzas, and handmade pasta are all excellent—especially the chicken liver rigatoni that’s tossed with cipollini onions and sage. But we’re also big fans of the wood-grilled chicken if you want something that won’t weigh you down on an intimate date night." - candis mclean
