Ossy's Cafe

My husband works in Hawthorne and we we’re looking for a good Italian restaurant. After Google reviews we decided to order from Ossy’s and we are so glad we did. When you first walk in the atmosphere is nostalgic and authentic. The staff is so warm and welcoming. I spoke with Ken the last time to place our order and he was a total sweetheart. We have ordered from them twice so far and their food is second to none. You can taste their passion for food. My husband ordered the Chicken Napolitano both times and said it was out of this world delicious. My son ordered Rigatoni with Vodka sauce and practically licked his plate clean!! I ordered Chicken Marsala and Chicken Sorrentino and it was one of the best I have ever had. Yes this is coming from a Jersey Italian whose family once owned a restaurant in Newark so my standards are very high. We did takeout but we are looking forward to bringing the family to the restaurant for a sit down meal. If you are looking for a great Italian restaurant look no further. Ossy’s is your place!

Friendly destination for fine Italian dishes. Family owned and operated. Everyone is committed to giving you a memorable dining experience. Casual and elegant at the same time.

This restaurant transports you back in time. Sure, some would say it’s outdated and maybe they’re right. I would say it reminds me of my childhood when restaurants were enjoyed because of the food, atmosphere, music and aesthetic. Ossy’s has it all.

The food was good and portions were great. It’s been owned and operated for 38 years, which says all you need to know. They’re doing something right and I look forward to more lunches and dinners at this locale.

It was my mom's birthday, and my dad chose this restaurant to celebrate. It was our first time here. My mom unfortunately suffers from Parkinson's disease and is in a wheelchair. I am astounded at the level of fantastic customer service provided to us. My mom can no longer cut her food, and one of the owners (I think), without us asking, noticed that and cut her food for her so we didn't have to. Of all the restaurants we have gone to, that has never happened, and we were so blown away and grateful! Not only that, but when it came time to leave, he got her wheelchair (she wanted to sit in a regular chair for dinner), helped her in it, was very careful and made sure my mom was OK, nice and warm while my dad went to get the car. Truly exceptional service. We have never experienced anything like it. I almost started to cry. Thank you for making my mom's birthday so special!

Delicious meal in a warm, inviting restaurant! Welcoming staff as soon as you enter, great service throughout the meal. Started with DELICIOUS bruschetta and warm bread and butter shortly after we sat down. Their house wine Pinot Noir was yummy, all of our food was fabulous. Can't wait to go back!
