Restaurants near Piedmont Experimental Station

Could not figure out why a pet dog was allowed to sit on a seat, right at table level. This was NOT a service dog.

My fiancé and I went to dinner at Osterio Olio to celebrate our engagement. When we were sat at our table we were promptly congratulated, given celebratory champagne, and welcomed with warmth and genuine care! We were treated to two complimentary appetizers along with a complimentary side dish, all of which were delicious! The manager stopped to speak with us several times, congratulating us and checking on our experience the entire time we were there. The food was outstanding-every appetizer, our pizza, and pasta. There was not a bite we took that didn't impress us. More impressive though, is that a restaurant could make us feel so celebrated, special, and like the most important people in the room. By far our favorite place in Athens to celebrate.

Our server was amazing and deserves more than 5 stars! The loss in stars comes from the hostess. Our table was cleared and my jacket removed, even though we were still present. I got back to the table and was waiting for our server to find out what happened and the hostess came up and rudely told me she needed the table and that I had to move. I told her no because it was my table and was cleared and my jacket removed without my knowledge and that I was waiting for my server to return with my bill and my jacket. The hostess rolled her eyes and just stood there with the customers she was trying to seat at my table and made the situation more uncomfortable than it needed to be. When I finally checked out and got my jacket back, I told the server that the hostess was very rude and she apologized and said the hostess was new and despite our server telling the hostess 3 different times that we were not done and to not clear our table, she still did.

Outstanding pizza and appetizers. Superior service. Highly recommend!
