Reviews for Osteria Marzano in Alexandria, VA
I am so confused on who is having a positive experience with the food from this restaurant. I ordered ubereats here looked at... the food, had a couple bites and decided I would rather have cereal for dinner. I ordered the lasagna, which appears to just bemassive blobs of ricotta and the tiramisu, which I’m not even sure what it is that I got. There are so many better options inthis area. Read more
Nice environment but the service sucked to be honest. We waited 20 minutes for bread. I had a spaghetti carbonara special and it... was full of bacon fat and the noodles were undercooked. The chocolate cake was gross. It tasted stale honestly. The food lookedgood but tasted meh. Read more

Absolutely doesn’t deserve 4.5 star rating. The confused/odd decor, flavorless lukewarm food, and not-clean bathrooms (with a... gas station like cleaning schedule on a clipboard) were all underwhelming. I wanted so bad for this restaurant to be good.However, It is clear that no one is exhibiting the care that a restaurant with $30+ entrees deserves. My 3 star review ischaritable. Read more
We found this place by chance when we were looking for somewhere to have a fake Valentine’s Day dinner near Springfield Town... Center. The food was so good I couldn’t stop eating it. It was also incredibly affordable for how good it was. We willdefinitely be making this a regular place to eat for special occasions. Don’t be deterred by the location. We thought we hadthe wrong address but it is actually on the ground floor of an office building on a side road by the medical center. We parkedin the parking garage of the office building and walked around. I thought it was a little sketchy but the place was very nice onthe inside. Read more
Attended a Thanksgiving themed Italian twist cooking demo... which was awesome. Greeting with a glass+ of Proseco, proceeded to... the kitchen, and observed the proprietor (from Italy) Chef Marzano prepare turkey, eggplant, risotto in such unique way! Thenproceeded to a great lunch of all the dishes, wine, and more! Read more
We have been before and it was better last time. The time in which servers came by was for the first timw not enough. We decided... to do Happy hour - though we ordered plenty to ensure a good tip, the servers were not attentive. The food was really good! Theonly negative food experience was they over cooked the zucchini chips. Otherwise it was great! We plan on going back sometime inthe future for dinner. The environment was nice, and the drinks were well made. Read more
Such an AMAZING experience!! I can not state enough how much my family and I enjoyed dining there. It was our first time and we... live around the area but never knew about this hidden gem but we are so glad we found it and will DEFINITELY be returning. Theatmosphere and decorations in the restaurant were beautiful and very classy. The food was very delicious— from appetizers toentrees to desserts. Our server, Keller, was the highlight of the evening. He was extremely kind, accommodating, and patient. Iwould give this place and Keller a hundred stars if I could. Read more
