Romeo Osteria

What a great , great , place! We were travelling in Bogota - have been to many restaurants all over the world and this honestly had real style, class and great vibes. Book in advance (our booking did not go through but the owner personally accommodated us and really look after our evening) The food was well crafted - not pretentious but super super tasty. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Rustic, bustling bistro-esque in nature, this restaurant adjacent to its sister Oficial (Rafael Oosterling) restaurant had such a different feel to it but equally merits a visit to sample its delights. It is less formal than Oficial but has its own independent laid back charm with a nice romantic alcove area with panoramic views of its bustling surrounds. There are all sorts influences running through the menu, pan Asian, South American, Italian etc.

Very homey place, very aesthetic for people who like that type of scenery. It is Italian but do not expect the elite ultra mega Italian cuisine. The food is yummy. If I were to recommend a plate it would be the rigatoni of pig. I would argue that the gnocchi are too creamy like way too much, please chill out with the cheese. Overall, pretty good.

Upscale ambience on an upper floor, to be more precise on the fourth floor. Upscale audience, upscale design, upscale prices. Here you are among yourself and are happy that you belong to a society that likes to spend a little extra on food. But it was really of excellent quality and can only be recommended. The octopus and the Mediterranean steak in particular tasted excellent.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant. It was very romantic, cozy and warm. Their bread was absolutely delicious!!! I enjoyed their octopus dish it was very fresh and soft. My friend ordered a chef’s recommendation which is a pizza and it was a little too salty but overall very fresh and delicious. Their octopus ink pasta was homemade but the pasta tasted a little hard and not al dente. Overall the quality of the dishes was pretty good and consistent for the most part.

Delicious, food, great atmosphere and decoration, excellent service. We tried 3 different starters and enjoyed a lot, the sardines bruschettas, the burrata and the artichoke, delicious. Also had amazing fetuccini Nero, it was really good, also the lasagna with asado de tira, wow, deli! Their cocktails were good too, tried the Signorina and the Limoncello ones. I highly recommend this place, very reasonable price for the full experience you get.

I was so focused on how great everything was that I forgot to take photos. The restaurant is beautiful, we were alone on the outside terrace, music was tame. Service was not overly warm but still friendly and efficient. We started with the burrata which was very milky and had a great balance of flavors from the sweetness of the pears and the acidity of the tomato. We then ordered the lamb ragú papardelle and it went straight into my lifetime top 3 of the best pasta dishes I’ve had, up there with Officina 00 in London and a place in Florence whose name I forgot. The total price for 2 mains, 1 starter and 2 soft drinks: USD 42. No comment.
