Nestled in Park Slope, Convivium Osteria exudes rustic Italian charm with a cozy ambiance, inviting diners to savor authentic Sardinian dishes in a warm farmhouse-like setting, complete with a romantic wine cellar and a picturesque garden patio.
"There’s probably a place by your house where you can get a casual plate of pasta on a Wednesday night and maybe bring date. If you want to go the equivalent of this place before or after a show at the Barclays Center, go to Convivium Osteria. It’s a charming spot with hardwood floors, chandeliers, and knick-knacks on the walls. You could probably even propose to someone here, if you were feeling so inclined. Or you could just eat a good plate of tagliatelle al ragu." - hannah albertine, bryan kim, matt tervooren
"Convivium Osteria serves Italian/Mediterranean food, with a few housemade pastas and some entrees like sea bass and rack of lamb. The basement feels like the wine cellar of an old Italian farmhouse, and eating the braised rabbit with prosciutto on the patio outside will make you feel much farther than two blocks away from the busiest stadium in Brooklyn." - Team Infatuation
"This homey and quaint osteria—laden with gleaming copper pots and rustic clay urns—aims to reflect the chefs' Sardinian roots. The menu is built around carefully sourced meats and products that are deftly prepared and presented. Try the tonnarelli con gamberi e pomodoro, a modest dish whose success rests solely on product quality and flavor balance." - Sophie Friedman

Braised artichokes are an evergreen favorite; while agnello (pistachio-crusted roasted lamb in a red wine sauce) is a delicacy and deservedly so. Well-priced wines and a handful of desserts make this spot a must stop." - Sophie Friedman
"For the sake of your dying succulents, stop by the curbside patio at Convivium Osteria. It’s like a mini Garden of Eden on 5th Ave, complete with cascading vines and flowers big enough to qualify for Oprah’s garden. But beyond motivation to care for your potted friends, this casual Italian spot is serving lasagna, ribeye steaks, and spinach and ricotta gnudi that you can (and should) have with an Aperol spritz." - nikko duren
