Service was good but overall food was a little disappointing. We were expecting more after reading all the great reviews online. Tried one of the chef's recommendation- it was some pasta, nothing special, overpriced and the penne was undercooked. Calamari was a letdown. However the Porchetta, Assorted bread and Schiacciata were really good.
I'm impressed with the service and food. I will be one of the regular for sure! The guazzetto is sooooo great and contented. Make my day!
Good authentic Italian food with reasonable pricing :) must try the 4 Flavours pizza - enough to share among 4 pax as appetiser. However venue is a little ulu and restaurant a little noisy. Too bad we over ordered and could not finish everything. But overall a good experience, will be back again!
It was very crowded and even needed to queue if go without reservation because of TGIF. However Chef Anna served customers personally! Had the seafood guazzetto again. So gooood.
Food is nice, service is good. Variety choices for food. Always is my option when come to special celebration. Price abit higher but definitely will come again.
Good food and reasonably priced. We had the burrata, daily special secondi, pasta and desserts. The burrata was served with very sweet tomatoes and fresh arugula. Pasta was chewy and delicious, and the Baba was light and not-too-sweet. Good place for gatherings and family.
The pasta was terrible. Too much oil and there was a pool of water at the bottom of the bowl proving that pasta wasn't well drained. We were not impressed by the pizza at all. The octopus wasn't too bad and I guess the best dish we had was the lassange.
Enjoyed the food, enjoyed the service! Good recommendations from service staff, both for wine and food. Pleasant, homely ambience. A place to chill out with friends and family!
The restaurant showed us to a corner table cramped with boxes, we werent impressed at the service at this stage. So we asked for a change of table. Overall experience was still ok food was nice
Busy, noisy but great food! Must make reservations. Parking was full when we were there and it took a while to find an empty spot.
It's a great place, had been several times there and never disappointed. It has a difference in service and character with some well thought special dishes. We normally go for some of there specials, always the highlight.
Had lunch there on a weekday. Pasta was yummy delicious. Service staff were attentive; could be more cheerful and less transactional. Layout of restaurant and ambience were good. Overall, was a nice experiencre. Consider fixing base of tables 'rocking' on uneven ground.
The food was made with fresh ingredients and cooked perfectly. The Italian street food was tasty as were the sorbet and gelato deserts. The high bay indoors provided a spectacular view of the surroundings while we enjoyed our lunch. We eat together with three children and they all enjoyed the delicious Italian food. We would definitely come back to this place again.
Menu was done different from the typical Italian restaurants and especially like the street food. The bread was awesome, must order. Some of the pasta dish was not to our liking. Like the pork belly.
Great experience and wonderful food, once again! Family friendly too, especially with them accommodating our 2 young kids. Looking forward to our next meal there...
Appetizers are good here. Nice quiet restaurant with good ambience. Will not go wrong getting the pastas here. Good variety on the menu. Will definitely return again soon.
Excellent food and great service !!! There were lots of variety on the menu... including lots of dessert like cakes n cookies to choose from.
This was my third visit and it was a good experience, my guests certainly enjoyed it too. Excellent and professional service, good menu choices, interesting wine list. definitely worth another visit.
Wow! The service tremendously improved. The Chef Anna even called me before I paid the visit to let me know what can I have in this restaurant to avoid the allergen. From the stuffed roman schiacciata with oozing mascarpone cream and strong truffle taste/smell to the seafood guazzetto that contained salmon, calamari and scallop- YUMMMM. Savoured the moment. ❤️❤️❤️ #rocambolesco 🙇🏿♀️🙇🏿♀️🙇🏿♀️ I'm planning to go back very soon!
Got a nice table by the window. Food was good as usual, and the service was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Will go again soon.
Been to iO Italian Osteria a number of times now and really enjoy the food here, plus service is great! Kid-friendly and food comes out quick which is helpful when dealing with young ones!
Ordered 2 starters, 1 main and a dessert for 2 pax. Really enjoyed the food! Would recommend 4 people coming here to try out more food together. We ordered the Porchetta which we really liked. The skin was crackled to perfection. Highly recommended. The pistachio tiramisu (no longer in a jar) was good! Slightly to the sweeter side. Recommend to share. Atmosphere can be a little more to the noisy side due to families being there.
From starter to antipasti to pasta to main to desserts. All of us enjoyed a lot with the white wine Gavi. More to go please.
Authentic italian burrata and other great dishes. portions are generous and price ok. all very good with good service even if very busy. will go again
I love the buzz in the restaurant , friendly staff with delicious food. Will return for more and definitely will recommend friends over to this lovely place.
Reserved a table for two. Food and ambience was great! Service crew were prompt and polite. Got a window seat, me and my partner both enjoyed ourselves.
Great and homely Italian food. Love it here. The service was good too. The service staff to customer ratio is good, the food came quickly as well.
Food was great just that the timing of the food service (the mains) was not well coordinated. We were a table of 3 pax. 2 of us got of mains first and we were half through the mains when they finally serve the mains for the remaining guest. It would be nice to be told in advance if any of the dish would need to wait longer.
We had a table by the full length window which gave lots of natural lights. My daughter was happy as all the food photos turned out very well. Food, especially lava cake was great. As we ordered too much pizza, didn't have room for mains. Will try it next round.
The most affordable and nice restaurant around bukit timah area the dessert is nice as well ,I love the trimisu and the pizza so much.
Service was good. The food in general is fine, but it is a pity that they do not serve good pizza. Interesting menu but prices on higher the end.
The food was great. The atmosphere was wonderful. The Italian style pizza is a must try. Don't forget the dessert, there was a wide range of cake selection.
Food wasn't very fantastic and quite pricey. Foodwas fresh but perhaps just not to our liking. Service by staff was great though. Overall a mediocre meal.
Service was not very good. Initially they didn't have our reservation in their records and I had to show them my record as proof of my reservation. No apologies nor even a friendly smile. Difficult to get the waiters attention to get served. Food good but do not recommend to visit during weekends
I had a great time there. Service was attentive and prompt. The food was very good too as the ingredients were fresh. I am looking forward to my next visit there.
Great food and fantastic service! Reasonably priced as well. Restaurant was packed despite it being a Monday, best to make a reservation before heading down.
Ambience, food & service - More than exceeded my expectation. Authentic Italian fare. I had the pasta and it was interesting. I would highly recommend this place and will definitely visit again - this time to try the Pork Belly & the Seafood platter.
Very special designation. The food is really nice and pork belly is highly recommended. I also like the homemade bread. Will introduce to my friends and visit there again.
As i have to write 25 words where only a few words would be enough ..... simply the best Italian food in town ! Fantastico
Was there for dinner with a friend.fresh italian food with reasonable price, awesome ambient. we ordered pizza & paste to share , love their hazelnut chocolate cake :)
Nice intimate restaurant but food is not as good as what it is hyped to be. However it's affordable and a nice environment to be dining at
Tables are a little tight and too close to each other but good food overall. Host was patient and waiters were fast and attentive. Try it out.
Good service from restaurant, good food, visited many times which does not failed to satisfy me. Thumbs up for the restaurant! will visit again to try different food!
Good food. However they didn't know of my special request for window seats although stated in Quandoo. After telling them a couple of times. I finally got my window seats. Overall, a pleasant experience with good food, ok service
IO Italian Osteria never fail to disappoint me. Service was great. Food was great. Ambience was great. Love their breads/ pizza. Lots of variety from the menu.
This is my favorite restaurant in Singapore for italian food, thr quality, price and the service is something the people must try. From the starters until the dessert and coffee is great, if you want a proof try to go with out reservation. This is a place with a word must, if you are looking for the best.
Authentic italian restaurant with the aroma of scacciata and various breads. Foods are awesome and in a way unique to the restaurant. Will continue to visit and try different items on the menu.
It is an authentic Italian restaurant,food is great,especially Tiramisu cake .staff here is considerate. The price is 30++ per person. Overall,I recommend it to people who is Italian food lover.
Good food, reasonable prices. Will definitely go back again to try their specials. Service could be improved but they are packed so it can be excused.
Lovely meal. What I like is their willingness to come up with alternatives. Truly, client entered.
