Syosset

About the restaurant

Long Islands best family style restaurant, rooted in classic Italian family style fashion, features the best from each Italian Region. We anticipate the cooler weather game of veal and homemade pasta, burnt vegetables and mixed greens; Our fish is fresh daily and the tastiest clams you'll ever try, live and kickin’ soft shell crabs arriving in season, followed by summer’s fresh bean salad, tomatoes and mozzerella. Regional, heritage ingredients and gracious service have been celebrated here since our opening in 2012. We hope to welcome you at the table and add a little smile to your day.

Smithtown

About the restaurant

Italian hospitality and culinary traditions come together at Osteria Umbra
Executive Chef Marco Pellegrini & his wife, Chef de Cuisine, Sabrina Vallorini transport you to their hometown of Foligno, Umbria where quality craftsmanship and a deep respect for natural ingredients are woven into daily culture.

At Osteria Umbra, Chef Marco Pellegrini has created an experience inspired by classic Umbrian cuisine, elevated by his attention to detail and culinary innovation.

Each dish is handmade with the world’s finest ingredients; from the farms right here in our backyard to the rolling hills of Italy.

This vision would not be possible without Stephen and Diane Bragoli & Daniel Bragoli, lover of all things food and wine.

It is their attention to detail that creates a comfortable ambiance that represents the contemporary Italy of today combined with Chef Marco’s soulful cuisine that Osteria Umbra is born.

Exceptional dinner. Our server not only knew their stuff but sold every item on the menu. A vast knowledge of the food severed. My drink was never empty. My stomach either. An absolute delight. I’ve never felt a better value for my buck. I wish I could recommend it more than I am now.
