Osteria D' Assisi

My wife and I were visiting Santa Fe and we had asked our neighbors who used to live there where we ought to eat... their first response was Osteria D'Assisi. We started with the gnocchi appetizer and it rivaled any I have had in Italy for sure. Afterwards I had the filet and my wife had the carbonara. My filet was rare to med rare the way I like it. It was butter.. I did not need a knife, it was that tender. The carbonara was rich and tasty, every thing a carbonara ought to be. Our waiter, Dan, was great... we had chosen to dine upstairs. He was running back and forth as he had people downstairs. Dan filled us in on the history of the building and the restaurant itself.

Hands down if you are coming to Santa Fe by all means eat the local indigenous food it is fabulous, the chile's etc. However set aside that special night and dine at Osteria D'Assisi. We have traveled to Italy many times as we are both cyclists. And we will be buying a houser there soon, we know good Italian and this is certainly one of the best.

Wonderful atmosphere and delicious Italian food. They have specials every night. The capellini chicken in mushroom sauce was delicious and my friends loved the veal ravioli in mushroom sauce. Be sure to make reservations as this restaurant was packed last night in July. There is outside seating and inside. We sat inside because it was still HOT outside. The orange aperol spritz was delightful. The calamari was very good for our appetizer. I highly recommend you give it a try .

This gem is a fabulous departure from all the NM cuisine and overpriced and over rated places here in Santa Fe. The food is incredible as well as the staff. The desserts are so incredible.....I truly enjoyed every aspect of this place. A little pricey but once you taste the food that is the furthest thing on your mind. We all agreed the food was exceptionally flavorful and portioned perfectly. The service was timed perfectly and the staff was knowledgeable and not pushy regarding drinks or specials. The staff and the food and the ambiance were a total combination that were flawless and complimentary to a fantastic dining experience. My suggestion is go.....definitely go ......you will be very very happy you did and you WILL be back.....I know I will.

Dining alone in SF and Dan was impeccable with his recommendations. I might as well have been in Lake Como. The wine list is everything and more that they have a reputation for. Portions & taste were both perfect and atmosphere was cosy and welcoming. Can’t wait to enjoy next time!

Ate dinner here last night for the first time. They have been in SF for several years but never had I indulgence to have dinner at such an amazing restaurant.
Staff, food and service were all top shelf.
Osteria will be added to our monthly dinner date outings.
Eating here was like eating out before Covid ruined dinner experiences, it is like the old days of food and fun.
Make a reservation and find out for yourself.
