This is the fourth time I visit I O litian restaurant,food is as good as usual ,service is fast and the most importantly it is affordable
As good as usual and I love the seafood soup with crispy garlic toast.
Overall good food! Dessert (tiramisu and Panna cotta is outstanding!
Overall food was nice but the service experience was less than perfect. The Italian pasta dishes tasted better than the meat or seafood dishes. Pizza was too thick. Need to be careful with their recommendations of food & beverage to customers, based on group size.
We ordered the Mixed Grill Fish and Seafood Platter, Eggplant, Lamb Ragout and Porchetta. Out of 4 of us, 3 were first-timers to the restaurant. As the only frequent diner, the quality of food (freshness, taste and originality) and service was very consistently good. My 3 first-timer friends were also very happy with their dining experience there.
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the great quality food at Italian Osteria. Rustic and authentic Italian dishes. Bellissimo! Highly recommend to those wanting to have value for money and authentic Italian food. We will be going back again with even more family members.
Lovely find ! Quality food though location is a bit of an issue if u don't live in upper bukit Timah . Will go again
They serve authentic Italian food which is tasty and the staff are pleasant. My overall experience is good. The spicy roasted chicken is nice. Will come back to try other dishes as well.
Not to be missed - the Roman stuffed schiacciata. Will definitely return to try their other dishes.
Great authentic Italian food. The daily specials are delicious but pricer than their regular menu. Fantastic ambience for friends gathering. Staff are knowledgeable and helpful.
Always enjoyed the food here. Love the truffle cheese flat bread . Can’t get the name . The baked fish in salt is also delicious
Always good and delicious Been coming back many times and still enjoying .
Great service, food and ambience! Will definitely visit again. Try their cheese platter, pasta and pistachio cake. Prices are reasonable for the portion- esp the family sharing portions.
It was very packed at dinner and the restaurant was loud. But the service and food was excellent
The wagyu beef braised in red wine was excellent! Tender and tasty. Nice bruschetta and the tiramisu never misses. No wonder it’s a popular place. Full house even for a weekday and rainy night!
Good as always. Instad of the truffle bread, we went for the roasted, which was very good. The lasagna and the orichette were also very delicious. It wqs an early dinner for us, so we practically had the restaurant to ourselves.
The in-house bread and Porchester baked belly wild fennel were delicious. Went back for second meal within 2 days and it was just as awesome.
Porchetta and pasta dishes were fantastic. As it was our 1st time there, we were not sure what to order. Waiter by name, Raj, who was serving us was attentive, gave good recommendations and also made sure we did not over ordered.
We went there for a weekday lunch. The food was delicious and nicely presented. However, the service needs improvement. As the lunch crowd wasn't packed with people on that day, we expect the service to be quite prompt. We had to wait for our main courses for about 45 minutes after our starters. Other than that, we enjoyed the food there.
A neighbourhood Italian restaurant that never fails to satisfy. Great ambience, casual dining, attentive service members and good selection of food on the menu, supplemented by interesting board specials. The seafood gnocchi was a hit.
Pretty decent food, especially the Crispy golden seafood in semolina crumb and Homemade Tagliolini, prawns, lemon, aromatic breadcrumb. Service was friendly too. Pricing a wee bit on the high side but worth the money.
The food is awesome and taste authentic. The waiters/waitresses are attentive to our needs.
Service staff Gustavo was excellent! Dinner was great until we paid bill and realised we like another bottle of water and was told off by another staff the bottle of water costs $4 in an unhappy tone and face and he said he’ll ‘give’ that to us. After $360.00 I think we can afford another $4+++
Favourite restaurant ever! Everything is good, including the starters and pastas. My favourites are: Tomato Bruschetta, Porchetta, Lasagna and the must order - the Tiramisu!
Starters, appetisers and desserts were amazing! Staff were attentive and friendly, overall ambience was great. We were not crazy about the mains, such as the almond-crusted tuna which was one of the specials. But we would definitely still return!
Atmosphere is great and wait staff are friendly. They were helpful in recommendations of good food to try from the menu. The orecchiette with pork sausage and saffron sauce is one of the best pasta dishes I've had in singapore. Planning to visit again soon to try different types of pasta.
I find the food average. Table are place closely together. Plates are not clear promptly. The flatbread is nice tho. Prices are quite reasonable not pricy.
Nice ambiance but food was a little disappointing. The best dish we had was the starter which is Traditional Roman Schiacciata (Stuffed) - Highly recommend getting the truffle version! The mains pale in comparison sadly. Was a great dining experience nonetheless.
Food is just as good as ever. Service is still good too, friendly and attentive. Very authentic food and good house wines. Great place but can get a little noisy during peak as it's really popular
iO is an Italian restaurant that I usually frequent that never disappoints. Great food cooked by Italians and good service! Had the Tuna on the special menu and it was really good. Recommend the pistachio tiramisu for dessert!
Excellent food and service. The menu has many unique dishes and the food is consistently good. The Italian wines are a good standard and reasonably priced.
Lovely choice for a small birthday celebration. Big thanks to the attentive crew! I will return for sure to try other items on the menu.
Always wonderful. Genuine people, authentic and without the unnecessary fussiness of too many others
Great ambiance with fantastic food and courteous staff. The restaurant is easy to find and the novelty the chef bring on the table blows my mind
I was impressed and have enjoyed my meal the first time a month back but not so much the second time. My last dish wasn’t served for sometime because it was not in my order. I even asked a waitress about my order but she did not came back to our table. Overall, we still enjoyed the food. Brought my aunt who is visiting from UK to the restaurant since she loves Italian food and she enjoyed her meal and said it is authentic. Please keep up the good work guys!
Great food and service for an affordable price. Please do not set a minimum word count as now I’m trying to fill it up by doing this
The one Italian waiter assigned to our table was simply the worst we have ever encountered. Stood at table with arms crossed and asked what we wanted to order. No menu, no recommendations. His attitude throughout gave us the impression that we should be grateful for gracing us with his presence. Smart mouthed as well. Unfortunately we didn't get his name but we did lodge a complaint with the manager. The standard of the food has definitely slipped ; the beef caparccio was tough and the baked eggs was far too liquid. I conclude that success has somewhat caused them to lose focus on food quality and service standards.
Food was absolutely divine! Service was fast as well but clearing of plates were a little slow and kind of had to help ourselves. The ambience was pretty nice and chill for a night out for an affordable price. Would recommend getting the roman stuffed stracchieta and check with the staff of the pasta specials for the day as well!!
We had a big feast. The chicken was a bit salty but the crew was nice enough for me to change to other dish.
the staff were polite and informative. The food service was fast and the food tasted really good. The food was reasonably priced and payment was convenient
Seafood platter, roasted chicken, schiacchiata with white wine, after a long run.
Friendly crews, good food. I enjoy the most before the peak hour at my usual seat☺️
First try of the Italian meatball with tomato sauce and cheese. That’s so good.
I love the ambience and the food. The truffle bread and pizza is a must have! Lunch is a better time if you wanna avoid the crowd!
Good recommendations and personalised service. Service crew was. Well staffed and attentive Would help if plain water was not charged (over priced), by the litre.
As usual, great wholesome and tasty food, efficient and convivial service!! My place to go when I want no-nonsense comfort food in Singapore! See you guys soon!!
Great service! I especially liked the regular checks by the Waiters and Waitresses, reminded me of Western-styled service. I will definitely be back again with family :-)
Great food, nice ambience. only the table is a bit too pack, so do go there early to get a better spot. house wine is a bit bland, but can't really blame too much. The music choice can be lot more better. Overall quite good experience here!
The pasta that I had was too salty for me but I ate half of it anyway. The restaurant offered to change but I was already too full to have another plate.
its a pretty decent restaurant, just remember dont over order and order over a few time as you may be surprise by the mismatch in portion n pricing
