Osteria Panevino

In town for a conference. Being of sicilian descent, first generation, the menu reminded me of my childhood. It was a busy night, so difficult to have a conversation, tables close to each other. Servers were working hard and appreciate all the orders were accurate, but they didn't refill waters, which we all opted for. We had the cheese and meat platter, very good and filling for a table of 4. Portions are big, which is good, and can easily share a plate. I ordered the squd ink pasta, childhood favorite. There was more sauce than I would have preferred, without much texture. The cacio and pep gnocchi had a gummy texture to my taste, as someone who makes my own gnocchi, but could be my taste. The sicilian chicken was excellent. Overall, would return since the pizza looked good walking by. I would try it, maybe a less busy night or try outdoor seating.

I’m almost positive this is where I ate last week (07/20/23) but I was super duper high and I can’t be 100% sure but the GPS location on my pics puts me roughly here so I’ll have to trust it’s right (and I can’t find my receipt) First off there’s a good chance I ate like two whole baskets of bread and enough butter for four baskets. I ordered what looks like Lobster Fettuccine with maybe scallops and shrimp thrown in for good measure. It was definitely enough for two people but I was told I not only finished it off but then soaked up whatever remaining gravy was left with the bread so the plate looked like fairly clean. Oh and the pics show I asked for EXTRA Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top! After all that pasta and bread I of course ordered dessert. If a restaurant has Creme brûlée I have to order it and I sure did - maybe even two (that or I took two pictures of it) I don’t know why they put berries on Creme brûlée but I’m a purist and just want my custard and fired sugar top layer a

The stuffed shrimp special with risotto was out of this world, truffle fries were also amazing .. even the side cauliflower was flavorful.
