The Bro Show – Episode 16
The Bro’s Sitdown with the Osteria Team
In this episode of The Bro Show, hosts Jamie Giovinazzo and Greg T sit down with Steven Botta and Angelo Bongiovanni, the duo behind Osteria, one of Jersey’s most talked-about Italian restaurants.
They dive into how their partnership started, the lessons they’ve learned running a restaurant in New Jersey, and why hospitality means more than just great food. From balancing tradition with creativity to surviving packed Friday nights, Steven and Angelo bring passion, humor, and plenty of flavor to the table.
You’ll also hear about:
- Why Steven offers a money-back guarantee on his meatballs (and why 99 percent of people never ask for it)
- How Angelo’s early days in the kitchen taught him what really matters in customer service
- The moment Jamie saw real hospitality in action while working at Brando’s
- What makes the perfect chicken cutlet and the secret behind a great Wagyu steak
-Why people are flocking to Monmouth County—and what makes the local food culture so special
