PIZZERIA OSTIENSE In Roma

12/07/2025: They gave us a gift card. Beyond the exquisite food, we were impressed by the very kind and helpful waiters and the chef who passed between the tables.

12/07/2025: 10/10 — Bravo. A must-try experience! From the moment you enter, you’re welcomed into a space that perfectly blends modern elegance with earthy warmth — tall exposed timber ceilings, textured brickwork, sleek ambient lighting, and comforting air conditioning. The staff’s greeting was warm and professional. I was promptly seated and presented with the wine list and menu. Unfortunately, I couldn’t drink wine due to a minor head cold, but the staff’s suggestions and explanations were excellent. (As an Australian, I really appreciated the English — it made everything seamless.) I chose the “Glass Tasting Menu”, which you can tailor with substitutions from the vegetarian menu — the flexibility was very much appreciated. And the food? Absolutely unforgettable!! What truly sets Glass Hostaria apart is the attention to detail, the depth of flavour through different ingredients, and the creative uniqueness of every dish. I felt like there was a story being told by the kitchen …. And I was very happy to be included. The first appetiser and first course are eaten by hand, (I personally love this), a touch that draws you closer to the ingredients and sets the tone! (I should add, the remaining meals are eaten with cutlery). As the courses continued (and my waistline expanded…), the experience only got better. The Chef’s Pasta and the lamb were absolute standouts — dishes I’ll be dreaming about long after I leave Rome. Having dined at other Michelin-starred restaurants across Europe and London, I can confidently say Glass Hostaria genuinely stood out. It’s not just technically excellent — it’s been a memorable experience…. And for me, that’s what dining should be! I wish we could return… but our journey continues. I sincerely hope we meet again.
