Incredible tasty, explosion of flavours. Never though to find such a good restaurant in

The rose-red slices of raw beef fillet are cut expertly thin, almost translucent, and streaked with fat. Yet this carpaccio is so soft, so melty, so full of feels in the mouth, I come perilously close to abandoning my principles. It’s drizzled with taleggio cheese fondue, lighter and less ripe than hoped for, closer to a mild cream. Dessert is a perfect tiramisu, all unending (and unfinishable) ruffles of cream and savoiardi soaked in booze.

What a special restaurant this is. The food is superb and is matched by the quality of service. You might say that the menu is somewhat limited but no matter every single dish is cooked with care and oozes class. The two gentleman who served us were first rate: attentive, courteous and efficient. On top of this it’s a small but intimate, warm and cosy ambience. Fantastic.

Delicious food, fresh fish of the day and great quality meat, the service is brilliant and negronis were spot on!!

We arrived at 7pm without a reservation and asked if a table was available and fortunately for us there had been a no show. We had one of the best dining experience we have ever had and were made to feel very welcome. This was our first visit to North Berwick and Osteria left us with a definite want to return.

We were fortunate enough to get a table as there was a cancellation. Not knowing the area of the restaurant we looked at the reviews and decided to give it a try. It was absolutely amazing. The service was personal attentive and very friendly. The food was out of this world amazing the flavours the presentation everything was outstanding can’t recommend this restaurant enough. Thank you very much for giving us an amazing memorable evening with the most wonderful food service and the delicious wine that was recommended all at a very reasonable price. Remember to reserve a table as it is very popular ?? 5 Star all the way !!

Give This Restaurant a Michelin Star!Osteria is undoubtedly one of my favourite restaurants I've ever eaten at. As someone who enjoys everything from fine dining to a Maccies; Osteria just hits on every point.The Food:I had a duck terrine followed by the beef cheeks and it was one of the most flavourful and delicious meals I've ever had, hands down. Great care has been taken with portion size and presentation and everything feels like it has its place.The Service:The family run restaurant is attentive and friendly. You are welcomed in and given a five star service from start to finish with the staff taking their time to talk to you when you wish and leave you if you are busy talking. The service is quick but you will never feel rushed and the attention to the layout of the table is important to the staff. My partner spilled some wine and the staff took it upon themselves to clean up and cover the wine stain which was such a nice note and handled in a no hassle and respectful manner.Atmosphere:The atmosphere is homely and despite being a small space, there is plenty of room between tables. We were certainly the youngest people at the restaurant by at least a decade and treated with the same level as respect as anyone our senior.All in all, this is the second time I have been to Osteria and the second time I have been wowed. North Berwick is now somewhere I would come to SPECIFICALLY to visit Osteria and when you go you will see why.Please visit this outstanding establishment and show the staff your love. This is a restaurant that you will talk with your friends, family, work colleagues etc. for years to come. I certainly do and will continue to rave about my experience here.

A friend told me about Osteria. Upon arrival to North Berwick, I called, was booked all week. On our last night, we chanced a walk-in and got a table an hour later. Service was impeccable, and the food was great. Owner Angelo served us, and we talked together long after the meal, so engaging. A great little osteria, only nine tables, intimate feel, just spot on with every detail. Book ahead !!
We went to Osteria for our last night in Scotland and they did not disappoint. This is the restaurant to go to in North Berwick, great service by Angelo and his son . Food preparation and presentation, flawless.

Just had the best dining experience ever! If you look at the set menu price first - don’t! The food is the best I have ever had - every course amazing! The service made me feel like a celeb & the ambiance was so relaxed. The first thing we do when we’ve booked accommodation for nd t year is book Osteria. Truly the best overall dining experience

A fantastic restaurant if not the best that East Lothian has to offer possibly one of the best small Italian restaurants in Scotland
