About
Osteria Tarantino, a cozy Italian establishment in Cape Town, is a must-visit for lovers of authentic Italian cuisine. The ambiance is intimate and welcoming, with a homely feel that transports diners to Italy. The interior design is quaint, with a limited number of tables, so it's best to reserve a spot in advance. Prices are somewhat inflated, but the quality of the food justifies the expense. The restaurant is located in a convenient spot, although parking can be a challenge. The menu offers a small but expertly cooked selection of classic Italian dishes. Start with the sauteed porcine mushrooms, followed by the ricotta salad or the octopus carpaccio. For main course, try the 4RPs pasta, gnocchi al forno, or the veal meatballs. The wine list features all Italian wines, including a local Vermentino. For dessert, indulge in the chocolate truffle or tiramisu. The owner, Enrico, is a fantastic host who ensures quality, authenticity, and a cozy atmosphere every time. The waiters are helpful and nice, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Although there is no car park, the outdoor seating is a great feature, weather permitting. Overall, Osteria Tarantino is a gem of a fine dining spot, offering excellent food and service. It's a bit pricey, but definitely worth a visit for a special evening out.
