Osteria Amore came to life because we believe in the power of food to change your day, or in our case, change your life.

Owner Eduardo Daja has been working in restaurants since he was a teenager growing up in Italy, and his time in culinary school only strengthened his passion for food. After culinary school, Ed stayed in Bologna to work at a family-owned restaurant. He moved to Utah eight years ago, and found himself missing his first love, food. For the past three years, Ed has been managing an Italian restaurant while also maintaining a career in tech and finally made the life-changing decision to open his own restaurant.

That big decision was made possible for Ed when he met Marco Cuttaia, Osteria Amore’s executive chef and partner. Ed’s training in Bologna, considered the food capital of Italy, and Marco’s upbringing in Palermo, known for its incredible street food, bridge northern and southern Italian culinary tradition in a way that’s never been done in Salt Lake City.

    AMAZING and wish there was an Osteria Amore in Boise. Just about Everything is homemade and the flour of which it’s all made, I was able to eat (I can’t have enriched or fortified flours so I appreciate when restaurants use certain flours) If you can’t get a reservation for dinner, go for lunch like we did. Ravioli Pere e Gorgonzola with Truffles were really good but didn’t have strong truffle flavor. Alittle overpriced but understandable. I love truffle, so I had to try it! The sauce was good and I soaked it up with the homemade table bread! Osteria Amore was rich and delicious!!! Panini Sandwich (which O don’t think was on the menu) was made from the pizza dough, huge portion and also very good. At 1:30 Our party of 5 shared these 3 plates because we had an early 4:30 dinner reservation at another restaurant. At the end of our night, Osteria Amore was superb and we had wished we had fully indulged there and skipped our dinner reservations elsewhere. We will definitely be back and know to make a reservation WAY in advance.

    The server was great, super good wine recommendations with everything. The meat and cheese platter is probably the best in Utah. Mussels in white sauce was phenomenal and the veal was perfectly cooked with a tasty gravy. What overshadowed everything was the sea food tagliatelle although portioned well, it was very lackluster compared to everything else only tasted fishy. You couldn’t get a taste of everything because it only had one flavor and it was pretty overpowering. The seating below is not recommended for a date because you are packed tightly with others and you will be able to hear everyone’s conversations but outdoor in summer is nice and the step up level is good too. Honestly like this place overall but just avoid that tagliatelle.
