Osteria Divino

Went there for dinner the a few weeks ago the place was empty except for one other family of 5 Service was very slow 12 minutes to take drink orders and when it came soda was water and syrup no fizz
5 more minutes for her to come back and take order 24 minutes to get our meals (ravioli and a pasta dish) then it took another 15 minutes to get her attention that we would like bread when it finally can we were already just about done and it was garlic knots from pizzeria not bread for a meal
Food was average at best There are many better places in the area

So sad it closed. Best of luck to Luca and his family on their new endeavor!!!

Best gluten-​free pizza I have found on Long Island! The crust in nice and crunchy… I also tried some of the penne alla vodka and it was delicious! Will definitely be a returning customer and I suggest giving them a try! The only suggestion to the business would be getting he menu online or send it with delivery. The food is an A++

We have been here numerous timess, all positive. Owners talk to patrons, food excellent with fantastic service. Authentic Italian cuisine, extensive wine list.

Don’t think this is a pizzeria; it is not. The food is surpurb and the service is great. The menu is extensive and well worth the trip. There is not a frozen item on their menu. It is all fresh.

We were a bit concerned about slow service when we got here, which our very friendly waiter explained was due to a no show staff member. We were delighted with the food. GF pizza was a tasty appetizer, with cheese oozing off the slices. Portions were generous and beautifully presented. Chef Luca’s GF eggplant rollatini is even more delicious freshly prepared. My son’s GF shrimp scampi with capellini was absolutely delicious. Best hot GF bread around! Staff is warm and friendly. We look forward to trying more of Chef Luca’s food.

Returned with friends last Saturday night for a delightful dinner. Despite two large parties behind us in the dining room we had a great time with a NYC vibe… hard to talk but having alot of fun and a great meal. Marlin was our waiter again and he proferred exceptional service to our hungry group! Cant do a dinner here without whole baked clams, we got half dozen and enjoyed tremendously, dipping the hot bread into the garlicky sauce.Mmmm. Really enjoyed the two Gorgonzola Salads that Marlin split up onto 4 plates… each ½ order looked like a full order… alot of tasty salad with hearts of palm, olives, field greens and gorgonzola cheese… a worthwhile side.
For mains we ordered;
Chix Parm
Eggplant Rollatini
Cappelini with Clam Sauce
Veal in Mushroom Sauce
Each main came with a large side of pasta of choice… I got Cappelini w/​clam sauce… delish and other sides were Rigatoni Marinara… all wonderful and plentiful.
Finished around 10:30 and left FULL! Great casual Italian Restaurant with excellent food… Como sono buoni! OS is so good!!!

Absolutely love this place. Note: I can’t speak to dine-​in service as I’ve only ordered for pick-​up/​to-​go.
One of my nieces recently had to go gluten free, so we’ve been ordering from here pretty frequently. Everything is clearly labeled when it’s provided to you. Our first time ordering from here they forgot an item, but they were quick to correct their error and we haven’t had issues since. We have, at any given time, 8 – 14 people having dinner together so our orders are usually very large and detailed.
Their food is AMAZING. I’m not even gluten free but I end up eating both gluten and non GF items because everything is delicious, from the chicken parm to my nieces’ and nephews’ chicken fingers and mozzarella stick orders. I don’t know if their pasta is homemade or what, but it tastes much better and completely different than any other pasta I’ve tried. I especially like their eggplant rollatini — it’s neatly wrapped and not overly saucy or cheesy where you end up digging through sauce trying to find your food.
I will say that I think their pizza is okay, not spectacular and we’ll probably stick to our usual EM Italian restaurant standby for that. But in term of entrée dishes they’re better than most other Italian places in EM, and this is coming from a 25+ year resident.

Amazing place! Been going there for months. Food is delicious and everyone is friendly. I recommend it for everyone.

Eh… Underwhelmed. I’d try it again because I came in late. Pasta was overlooked. Broccoli Rabe under cooked. Sausage could have been prepared better. Service was very good. It was ok but not as good as I expected.

What a wonderful gem in this shopping center! I went here with my family and we had a wonderful meal. Fresh seafood and great wine. Just a wonderful go-​to Italian/​pizza place. Will definitely be back!

GLUTEN FREE HEAVEN!!! I love this place. They have a dedicated pizza oven and a GF kitchen. Chef Luca makes all of his GF frozen entrees right here (you can find them at Uncle Guiseppe’s). GF options abound — mostly everything on the menu can be made GF. When you take out, the GF entrees come marked with a bright sticker. When you eat in, they give you actual GF bread, not just the crisp cardboardy type. Tonight I had eggplant parm and GF penne. Everything is delicious! A great local place that gives celiacs or people with gluten sensitivities a lot of choice.

We’ve been searching for a new pizza place and have found one here. Everything we’ve ordered is delicious. Served hot, tasty and very affordable.

This might be some of the best pizza in Nassau County. That’s right… I said it!!! I’ve been to Umberto’s, Phil’s, Gino’s, Poppalardo’s, and they are all great places. However, Divino’s sauce, the white pizza, the entrees, are all in the same league with the greats. The only reason why I didn’t give it five stars is because the buffalo slice was too strong. Umberto’s buffalo slice is much better.

Better than average Italian Restaurant/​Pizzeria. Specializes in Gluten free dishes. Best dish is the linguini frutti di mare for $ 17.95 includes an assortment of shell fish such as clams, scallops (in shell), mussels and calamari. Restaurant is clean and service is good. Only complaint, they have a 3 – 6 PM ½ price wines. We ordered our meal at 6:05 and the waiter would not let us order ½ price drinks even though we were the only diners in the restaurant. Not too smart.
Anyway the food is very good and the staff is friendly.

Osteria Divino will be around a long time. Food and staff are excellent. Got to laugh at these negative reviews. Just can’t please everybody. Give them a try you will not be disappointed.

Another place trying to make it in this spot. Owner very friendly. Food mediocre at best. In general ordered special pizza slices which were OK. Clams Oreganto the sauce was not very good. Had risotto piscastore which tasted like plain rice with some ok shell fish.
They seem to specialize gluten free meals.
I give them 6 months to year.

Absolutely amazing. The food is delicious and the staff is friendly and eager to help. We just had a large event there and could not be more pleased.

We came to the restaurant with a group of friends. It was an amazing experience being served by the Chef and his staff. I had my favorite seafood pasta. I had the opportunity to try many dishes from our group as well. Everything that I had was fantastico! *:) Too bad the place is far from where we live but my husband has been going to this restaurant since the opening. I plan to go back whenever I can. To describe, the restaurant is huge, pretty good for special occasions or parties. The pizza section is on the other side of its dining area, so it doesn’t interfere with those patrons who come in just for pizza and takeout. Don’t worry, they got booth, so just relax and enjoy the meals. One of the 2 owners, Chef Luca, produces some gluten-​free products and sell them at some groceries like Whole Food Markets. So, when you’re out there shopping for groceries, look for products by Chef Luca. You won’t be disappointed! The service is great, everyone’s happy. We enjoyed our meals. Like my husband said «yum-​yum!» Many thanks to the Chef, Management & Staff for our meals and great service. Highly recommended! Excellente!

Best Pizza I’ve ever had, dough is very good. Usually get the veggie slice or chicken bacon honey mustard… Eggplant parmigiana and chicken parmigiana best I ever had. Very reasonable prices.
Place is comfy with a lot of custom wood work and a nice dining area. There’s a wine bar too with wine barrel tables… Homemade wine.
Friendly staff with plenty of free parking in the front and rear.
