Reviews Osteria Due Amici

Had a great meal here tonight with my girlfriend. The service was exceptional and the staff very welcoming and polite. We had the olives and bread to start along with an aperol spritz and limoncello spritz. Too our delight it was 241 on cocktails. Main courses arrived and looked very appealing. I had the Mare (seafood pasta) and my other half had the Mezzelune (mushroom and truffle stuffed pasta. While my seafood pasta was exceptional, with lovely big prawns and perfectly cooked scallops, the Mezzelune was the absolute showstopper. Rich but perfectly balanced. I also managed to fit and lemon tart in that was exquisite. The frozen raspberries that it came with is one of my favourite things. It was lovely to have the live singer who came on and off throughout the night. Again props to the staff who were lovely all the way through. And hats off to head chef and his team. Could see myself coming back once a month. Keep up the good work.

First visit, with some family members, including our 1 year granddaughter . Food was fantastic. Staff were friendly and attentive. I only gave 4 for the atmosphere as there was a singer on and although she was good you couldn't talk at the table without shouting.

Love it here, go often and highly recommend. Love that the menu changes but the favourites are still on the menu. Definitely go to one of the fish nights, I have included the pictures from my last one. I have been here twice recently, once with the private hire and a private singer for my 40th and everyone had the best day, you could literally be anywhere. They serve very generous portions and I am yet to finish a meal. I also sat in the private curtain section with all my family and the kids absolutely love it. The kids meals are so big that we ended up taking most of the garlic pizza breads home. The prawn, crab and mussels pasta is a must for fish lovers and the calamari is one of my favourites. Definitely make your way through the cocktail list as well, they are good 😍

Great food and very polite staff. 👌 👏👍♥️

Celebrated our 40th anniversary with family. Excellent food and helpful friendly staff. Had the Sunday roast which is the best we have every had delicious. Thank you to all the staff for making it a special day. 😍

This place certainly was worth the short trip to Upminster on bank holiday monday. Although it's been open a while monday this was the first chance we had to visit and I can say now this will not be our last. This Italian restaurant is not a chain which to me is a plus and therefore menu is not just pizza and pasta. This to me makes you feel like your in a Italian restaurant. There's plenty of room in the restaurant and all the seats are nice and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and you could already see from the other diners who came in that they'd built us a good reputation. While we looked at the menu we decided to have a nice cocktail and of course if your in a Italian it has to be an Aperol Spritz . We decided to start with the Osteria sharing plate consisting of Crab Arancini , Calamari , Beef Fillet Carpaccio with Proscuitto & Mozzarella Bruschetta and it was delicious We then moved on to our main courses where we had the Mare Pizza full of Tiger Prawns , Crab Meat & Mussels while I went for the slow roasted Porchetta stuffed & marinated with herbs & spices , Sicilian roast potatoes & green beans simply Italy on a plate It was then time for dessert and there was something I just had to try Italian doughnuts with cinnamon and a sweet musto cotto reduction & a chocolate sauce. We also had the delightful and refreshing Italian Sorbet Well that finished our meal perfectly and after a nice Espresso it was time to head home.
This is a place I would definitely recommend as the food is good and the service is very friendly. I for one will certainly be back so Ciao for now 🇮🇹
