It’s a special time for Osteria Mattone, the venerable Roswell restaurant popular with the north Atlanta set.
Executive chef Eric Sell and the Osteria Mattone staff have set up a special Anniversary Menu in honor of the restaurant’s fifth birthday!
The fare will feature some of Osteria’s “greatest hits” over the years for new and old customers alike. The special menu will be available alongside the regular dinner menu from NOV-11 to NOV-15 (five nights for five years!)!
Patrons can expect the following delicious dishes: Bucatini All’Amatriciana (guanciale, Calabrian chili, pecorino), Lasagna Bolognese (pappardelle, mozzarella, traditional ragu), Tagliolini Di Mare (the original! lobster, crab, shrimp, seafood brood, tomoato, garlic) and more.
More favorites will be on hand like the Doppio Agnolotti (handmade ravioli stuffed with duck confit and sweet potato, brown butter-sage jus), and the Bomboloni (sweetened fried dough, vanilla custard and warm chocolate dipping sauce).
Make a reservation at osteriamattone.com or walk-in this week.
