Orsetto Italian Bar and Eatery

Pasta was legit. Food is good. Staff is nice.

Solid Italian place with lots of enjoyable options. Flavor and composition of the food tasty. Only issue we had was that for the prices they charge, it does not seem like they make their own pasta, which is a let down.

My favorite dinner during my visit to Jackson. Our server Taylor was attentive and so friendly! Favorite dish was the caprese (best heirloom tomatoes I’ve ever had). Split a bottle of wine, get a few apps and a pasta dish to share, and it’s the perfect dinner for 2!

We arrived for our reservation at 5:15 and asked to sit at the bar instead to enjoy some drinks for happy hour. We also ordered the caprese and the garganelli pasta dish. Both dishes were underwhelming and over sauced. The caprese needed more arugula to balance out the mozzarella and the balsamic glaze; it was just soaked in the glaze. The mushrooms and pasta was too salty and the truffle sauce was overpowering. The pasta tasted undercooked. For both dishes to be the price that they were was very frustrating. How do you mess up Italian food? When we got our bill, we also noticed that they had not honored our happy hour drinks and 5 glasses of wine, a salad, and one pasta dish was $150. We reminded them that we had three drinks during happy hour but they re-ran our card and only honored two. I am giving only two stars as the wine (which wasn't even made by the restaurant) was good and the servers but the food was not worth it and we will not be back nor recommend to anyone. Disappointing.

Claudia was the best! Professional and attentive. Food was great! Ambience, perfect! Good lighting and great to have a nice dinner with friends and family. Olive chocolate cake was delicious! Definitely coming back when in town again.
