Who doesn't enjoy staring at an enlarged photo of Sophia Loren, who gave real meaning to real and enlarged. Sophia and the owner, Alessandro Iacobelli, will welcome you warmly. Walk in and say "What a cute place", and it is a cute place without being cutesy. Street parking allows you 2 hours all of which you'll need just to peruse the ambitious menu. The decor is Italo-chic. Spartan but cozy and charming. A few large photos (if you can pry your eyes away from a young Sophia). The lighting warms the dining room and the design of this little gem says authentic and comfortable. There is a Brass and Copper machine to make Espresso and impress oh, it's so Italian. You'll think you've clicked your heels and closed your eyes, and when you opened them, you're in Trattoria dall'Oste in Florence. And...Oste don't coste that much. You can pay much more and get much less around town. You have found a true find. The background music will have your finger poking your Shazam app with each new tune. It's not intrusive like so many places where the loop eclipses all conversation. Not here. It's nice background music. There is a lovely dining room with two and four tops lining the wall across from the Wine Bar and also a street side patio which makes the hustle of the streets fade away. Oste doesn't need a hostee as all the staff will greet you like a new puppy. Your table is ready and while you make your nest, menus appear, but no rush as the table is yours until you need help getting up. The Staff was genuinely happy to make sure you have a great time here with food and wine to match. Oste is so un-Roman too, where waiters are aimlessly roamin' and groanin' about being on their feet all night in pants too tight. This ain't that. Service is practiced and professional, helpful and just plain friendly plus the kitchen knows exactly what they're doing and will pace your meal carefully. The Bar is Beer (on tap), and a curated Wine list offers a great collection and all fairly priced. Now, we have arrived at the magic moment. What's to eat here? Everything! The kitchen is focused and energetic. Seasoned cooks seasoning dishes with confidence and fully capable of serving the best of Rome in LA. The Bread basket at $3 had me immediately. It is full of warm fresh baked stacked slices of delicious bread. It was like a Ciabatta and a Focaccia got sloppy on a Tinder date and created a love child. The secret is Rice Flour, Whole Wheat Flour, and 85% water to create a nice crust and irresistible chew. You're gonna need several baskets of bread to sop up everything on each new plate beginning with the herby olive oil underneath the Carciofi alla Giuda (fried baby Artichokes) as good as you get at Piperno's in Rome on the Sunday night buffet. The Artichokes are hot, crunchy and enhanced by Italian Parsley, Lemon, and a riff on Bagna Cauda (Garlic and Anchovies). You'll need two orders of this too. So, just unravel your travel plans and go to Oste. (Piperno's is too noisy and hard to find anyway). The Insalata di Radicchio e Finocchio has bites of Radicchio and sliced Fennel, Asian Pears, Gorgonzola and Candied Walnuts in a light Vinaigrette that supports the ingredients without overpowering them. More bread por favori, Cameriere. No dressing will be left behind. Now, you need to have a meat-a-ball. Three baseball sized beauties are exceptionally light and fluffy. The meat was handled just enough and isn't that what we yearn for...in a Polpettine? Other versions of this simple yet traditional dish are like gagging down river rocks. These Meatballs have been elevated to an art form. They are served with an intense Sugo di San Marzano Tomato, melted Stracciatella Cheese from Puglia and a sprinkle of Nigella Seeds. They were terrific. These Meatballs have balls and won't disappoint should you take one home and have it for breakfast with a Runny Egg the next day. Or, just hoover the lot with your third basket of Bread. The Pinsa (pizza) is as large as a throw rug. My Pinsa Carbonara had a cracker crust and came with Guanciale, Bacon, Pecorino-Romano Cheese, Black Pepper, and that Runny Egg on top. Perfect for those Glatt Kosher, Vegan friends. (It's worth it to just get new friends as the Pinsa is wonderful). The Lasagna was sheer brilliance too. A simple dish turned into something for Royalty. The loaf was as big as a brick and had layers of al dente noodle sheets, slathered with a rich Bolognese Ragu in between them along with Bechiamella, Pecorino-Romana Cheese, and Black Pepper. Both hands on the serving soon and lift with your legs. Have room for house made Gelato? Even if you don't, get some. Chocolate Gelato and Passionfruit Sorbeto was perfect. You can always cat nap while the CHP writes you a ticket for weaving your way down the 5 Fwy. I can now boaste that I'll return to Oste soon. (Like tonight).
