Osteria Ester

Syera was our server and she was absolutely amazing. I go out to eat all of the time And have been to Michelin, five star, and high-end restaurants, and she was the best server I have probably ever had. She had great recommendations and made our experience even better! The food at this restaurant speaks for itself. Thank you!

⭐⭐⭐ We really wanted to love Osteria Ester, but unfortunately we left very underwhelmed. We specifically chose it because we were looking forward to fresh pasta, and if the pasta was made fresh, it certainly didn’t taste like what we expected. Both pasta dishes were beyond al dente—they were hard and tasted undercooked. I honestly make pasta dishes at home that we enjoy much more. We tried the alla vodka and the gnocchi, and neither was particularly memorable. The filet was actually the best entrée we had, but when going to an Italian restaurant specifically for the pasta, that was disappointing. The atmosphere is very nice and the service was good—we had absolutely no complaints there. The wine list, however, was surprisingly small and not what I expected for a restaurant like this or for the area. Overall, the food just wasn’t anything to write home about, especially given our expectations going in. We won’t be returning and will continue our search for a great spot with truly standout fresh pasta.

Jana provided us with great service, awesome recommendations, and attention to our experience. We had the lasagna and the chicken parm/pasta, loved it and will definitely be back. Highly recommended.

Lasagna was fantastic 😻. Excellent spirits. A fine Italian restaurant where they make you feel like family and grandma is in the kitchen putting all her love using high quality ingredients to make memorable meals with your loved ones.

Jana gave us the most wonderful dinner experience. First, we were given the best table in the restaurant with a gorgeous view of the bar and atmosphere. Then, we were given a tour of the menu with great suggestions of what to order, including the gnocco fritto (a MUST order). My friend was given a dirty martini with extra brine, personalized to her preferences. I was given a delicious Aperol spritz with the best ratios of any spritz I’ve ever had. Jana would be the first person I trust during an apocalypse. I highly recommend coming to eat here and requesting Jana as your server. If I was the manager here I would certainly offer a raise. Thank you Jana for a great dinner and even better service!

Finding a great local place that has character and marvelous food, is a great win. I love local restaurants that have a flair of their own. Atmosphere was fun and inviting, made you wanna stay just a little bit longer. The menu had so many wonderful options to choose fun. I would try and describe the food, but whatever I say would not do it justice. Flavors were well out to get her. Hot and fresh, perfectly cooked. Staff was super friendly and responsive to your needs. I did end up taking a treat home for later. Super impressed with this restaurant. Will be heading back for sure in the near future.

Amazing atmosphere, outstanding service, and truly delicious food. Every member of the staff was welcoming, attentive, and made the experience even better. The homemade pasta tastes like a little piece of Italy—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Pair it with an Aperol Spritz, and you have the perfect meal. Without a doubt, one of the best Italian dining experiences in Orlando. I’ll definitely be back! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Jary was so amazing! Took care of our group with ease. Food was great & vibes were even better

Absolutely WOW! Our first visit to Osteria Estia, and it certainly won’t be our last. From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely exceptional. Every dish was beautifully prepared with fresh, authentic Italian flavors, and every pasta was cooked to a perfect al dente. It truly felt like a little trip to Italy. We started with the crostini bread, the carpaccio, crispy polenta, Caesar salad, and baked clams, each appetizer was outstanding. For our entrées, the stars of the night were the Paccheri alla Vodka, Gnocchi Sardo, and Lasagna Rotolo. Every bite was packed with flavor. To top it all off, we paired dinner with the 2020 Ciochino, a full bodied, dry red that complemented the meal perfectly. We ended the night with their delicious light and creamy tiramisu. If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine, impeccable service, and an unforgettable dining experience, Osteria Estia is a must visit. We can’t wait to come back! 🍝🍷🇮🇹
