Southern Italy meets coastal California at Ospi Costa Mesa. From Top Chef alumnus Jackson Kalb, Ospi redefines traditional Nonna's cooking with Michelin technique and a few twists. Indulge in our painstakingly house-made pasta from biodynamically farmed Italian and local wheat, paper-thin pizza romana tonda, seasonal-forward cooking, and an expertly curated selection of wines and cocktails in a refined setting. Ospi should feel like your favorite lunch, brunch, or dinner party 7 days a week - it’s a vibe. Part modern Italian, part classic Italian, Ospi (short for ospitante or “host” in English) is our version of a casual lunch trattoria, familial dinner party restaurant, or a fun recovery brunch spot on the weekends.

MoreThe vodka pizza was probably the best thing of the night. The right amount of vodka sauce paired with the relatively thin crust made it really flavorful. The spicy rigatoni was good too, but...
