Osteria Moto - El Dorado Hills

A charming little coffee shop in the Castro neighborhood. The sandwiches are excellent, although the coffee is just average. It's a nice spot for a quick lunch or coffee break.

This is a fantastic spot for brunch! The potatoes were excellent, and the coffee was great too. The breakfast burrito with sausage had a strong fennel flavor but was still delicious. The avocado toast with the agitator was also very tasty.

The bar staff at this restaurant is outstanding—very knowledgeable and friendly. They provided excellent wine recommendations, even though we opted for something a bit more unusual. We tried a hard apple wine that has a jalapeño pear flavor. Although the menu simply lists it as "Dry Pear Apple Wine," they did warn us about the jalapeño. Its smell was off-putting, but to our surprise, it tasted fantastic! It was even better with a splash of lemon added! We definitely plan to return for a meal next time!

Stopped in about a month ago for the new brunch. There's a lot of great food in the area, and to me, they measured up completely. I think it would be great if they could expand on the menu a little bit because it seems like everything I tried was outstanding. My only recommendation would be to do a little less milk in the cappuccinos/lattes. The ratio seemed a bit off. This restaurant will do great for brunch if they keep up the good work and expand the menu just a bit further.

Something rough to begin, as they still seem to be training staff that I will certainly be better. I ordered the Campenelle and it was fantastic! So much taste with lemon, fennel, salty sausage and chewing pasta. It went perfectly with her salted bread. Not a big fan of the farm chairs, but the huge bar remains. I kidnap a star because no happy hour, but that could change! I'll try the Nero spaghetti and cocktails!
