An Al Fresco Evening at Cafe Testarossa

There’s something timeless about eating under the open sky. At Cafe Testarossa, an evening outside is less about a table and more about the whole mood: a glass of wine as the sun sets, soft lighting overhead and plates of Italian classics arriving one after another.

The garden-inspired patio is made for slow evenings. Tables are spaced with just enough privacy and just enough buzz, which is why it works for date nights, celebrations and easy get-togethers with friends and family.

How an Evening Outside Feels

Settle into comfortable seating under shaded umbrellas and let the neighborhood fade away. In the warmer months the patio is a breezy escape that never takes you far from home.

“It’s like a little slice of Tuscany right here in Syosset.”
Great food tastes even better in a beautiful setting, so the patio is open for everyday reservations and for private events, from bridal showers and rehearsal dinners to birthday brunches.

Dine Under the Stars

Come for a glass of wine, a prix-fixe dinner or a full evening of Italian favorites. The open air adds a little magic to all of it.

We had a wonderful experience hosting a baby shower at Cafe Testarossa! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. Danielle was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was so sweet, organized, responsive, and helpful throughout the entire process. She always answered her phone and made everything feel seamless and stress-free. The food on the day of the event was outstanding, just as delicious as if you were dining there for a special dinner. The staff was attentive, professional, and always present to make sure everything ran smoothly. Cafe Testarossa is a fantastic venue for a special occasion, and we couldn't have been happier with our experience. Thank you to Danielle and the entire team for helping make such a memorable day so special. Highly recommend!

Cafe Testarossa has been a favorite place of mine for many years. Aside from their welcoming and pretty hostesses, the food is always fresh, authentic, and delicious. I love that there is always a printout of specials tucked each day inside their menu. Whether posted up at the bar where they make outstanding drinks/cocktails or table side in their lovely dining room, the atmosphere at Cafe Testarossa is always wonderful. Five stars all around!
