Ate there for the first time in a while-had been put off by the limited menu. The owner John is has returned to being the chef and we can truly say he was wasted as a host. Everything we ordered from appetizers to salad to entree were intriguingly delicious, different, and definitely to our taste. We will be back soon!

First and last time dining at Vespa. When the food eventually arrived, which was over and hour it was underwhelming. I did enjoy the waiter rushing us out of the restaurant by violently taking items off our table while we were eating. Way to go Vespa!!

Went to Osteria Vespa last night. The food was decent but overpriced. Service was just bad. After eating here I went to Amherst Cinema. The manager accosted me in the theatre and asked “Why did you not tip our server.” Unbelievable. Never going to this restaraunt again.

Gluten free options so a plus, food was basic, drinks fantastic. Would return for cocktails not food.

Good, pricey food. If you have a decent-sized group, though, the acoustics are pretty bad. One end of our table couldn’t hear the other end

Really pleasant atmosphere and staff. Unfortunately the one time I came and ordered a risotto dish, it was woefully undercooked. The other dishes were fine, but getting an undercooked main entrée is definitely not worth the price tag.

A little bit expensive, but it has great amount of food. The waitress was friendly and the environment was very happy and relaxed. Such a good experience.

I cannot find any fault in the two times we have dined at Osteria Vespa. Both times, our server was Rob. He does an excellent job of making you feel appreciated. Overall, service was excellent.

We were lucky enough to recently hold, and celebrate our wedding at Osteria Vespa. Over the last year or so Vespa had become our go to date night place. The food is simply devine, and very consistent, and the staff is professional and friendly. We always felt at home eating out on the patio, or grabbing a quick drink and some tasty appetizers at the bar. We were overjoyed when the owner agreed to let us host our ceremony and reception at the restaurant. Throughout the entire planning processed, including one major covid hiccup, Jon and his staff supported our vision and made our big day nothing short of perfect. We highly reccomend everyone stop by and support our favorite local Italian spot, you will not be dissapointed!
