Decent Osso Buco — nothing more, nothing less
Osso Buco at this place was fine. The bright and tomatoey flavour was there but not distinguished. Parmesan was present in the right quantities but without the care that makes the difference. You can taste when something is being made to a formula.

First time trying Osso Buco — completely converted
I had never tried Osso Buco before this visit and I wasn't sure what to expect. The fresh and herbal taste hit immediately and made sense of the dish in a way descriptions never quite do. olive oil is an ingredient I'd not encountered used quite like this before.

Underwhelming Osso Buco — expected more
I was looking forward to Osso Buco here based on the reputation. The reality was disappointing. The deeply savory character that makes this dish special was muted — either from shortcuts with olive oil or from scaling up production at the expense of quality.

Osso Buco for a dinner party — went down extremely well
I made Osso Buco for eight guests who had varying familiarity with the cuisine. Every single person asked for the recipe. The bright and tomatoey profile was the main talking point — no one had quite experienced San Marzano tomatoes used that way before.
