Ospi is short for ospitante - meaning "host" in Italian. The sophomore restaurant of Jackson & Melissa Kalb, Ospi is an elevated celebration of a classic Brooklyn red sauce joint. Part modern Italian, part classic Italian, Ospi is our version of a casual lunch trattoria, familial dinner restaurant, and recovery brunch spot on the weekends. Welcome to our dinner party.

Jemma pays homage to old-school Italian-American joints with a touch of modern California flair. Our pizzas are made with an organic flour dough that took over four years to perfect and Lodi, CA tomatoes that feature the perfect blend of sweetness and acidity. Experience the classics like spicy rigatoni and spaghetti & meatballs, alongside craft cocktails.
