"Rice Village’s Coppa Osteria serves classic Italian fare. Favorites include the spaghetti carbonara tossed with black pepper and Parmesan cream, chicken Parmesan, and casarecce pasta with crispy garlic and basil pesto. The pizza menu offers a half dozen choices, like the meaty Carnissima, topped with Italian sausage, pepperoni, Salumi Toscano, and prosciutto." - Marcy de Luna, Brittany Britto Garley
"The Italian restaurant Coppa Osteria sits in the courtyard of a luxury apartment complex, and the swanky energy follows you through the front doors. With white tablecloths and candlesticks abound, dining at Coppa Osteria feels sweet and a little sexy. Come in your best date night fit to tackle fried gulf shrimp and calamari, tender bolognese, and a chicken parmesan all but drowned in marinara sauce. Between the pastas and dishes that are straight up focaccia bread with an assortment of butter, the carb wall can hit hard and fast at Coppa Osteria. But try your best to leave some room for a few forkfuls of tiramisu." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
"It all starts in the Dough Room. Handmade pasta and pizza dough (made daily, of course) set the stage for this authentic Italian trattoria, where diners devour the beautifully simple, flavorful dishes and locals flock for their after-work aperitivo. Home to cozy date nights, family gatherings and sunny brunches on the patio (we’re suckers for a yellow umbrella), Coppa’s charm stems from its cheerful sophistication… and an extensive wine and cocktail list. Oh, and the pedestrian-friendly pizza window? One slice short of genius." - Principle
"Although the choice between pizza or pasta is never an easy one to make, rest assured Coppa won’t lead you astray. Start off the night with mushroom arancini or a chopped Caesar, before deciding between the classic margherita pizza or the creamy Coppa carbonara. On nice weather days, settling in at a table on the large wraparound patio is wise." - Megha McSwain, Brittany Britto Garley
"This Rice Village restaurant and its sister establishments, like Graffiti Raw, Flora, and Gratify, are spicing up their non-alcoholic offerings with a new zero-proof menu, featuring a Grapefruit Spritz-y, the Golden Hour that’s made with sweet peaches and hints of green tea, and a Radiant Roots cold-pressed combination of orange, ginger, and cold-pressed carrot juice. Coppa will feature its own exclusive menu, featuring its fan favorites, including a Ginger Fizz and the La Perla & Fashion Week." - Brittany Britto Garley, Megha McSwain
