Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Half Moon Bay

Food and staff are always wonderful here! M’y go to place when this visit home.

We had an exquisite Easter lunch at Osteria, our favorite place to visit while in the Palo Alto area! Wonderful service, excellent flavors, and an all around delightful experience from start to finish. There’s several good reasons why this restaurant has been going strong since 1986. Try it, and you will NOT be disappointed!

This place is a neighborhood gem. The food is outstanding, the service is great, and the art decorations are simply off the charts. I love this restaurant and will always go back.

Best restaurant in the bay. I’ve been countless times and have never been disappointed. I’ll be returning regularly until the day I pass.

The pasta class was an awesome experience! We learned how to hand knead artisanal flour and make 4 types of hand-pressed and 4 types of filled pasta while learning the history/background for each. They showed us the machines they use to make their extruded pasta and freely answered all our questions. Beverages and fresh rosemary shortbread were available throughout the 3.5 hour class. After we finished making our pasta we got to observe them being prepared into the dishes we dined on afterward. Our teachers were very knowledgeable and helpful. I definitely recommend
