Osteria Antica Ignites Italian Passion at SM Podium: A Bold New Chapter in Culinary Excellence

Wazzup Pilipinas!?

Beneath the buzz of Ortigas, where city lights flicker like candle flames against glass towers, a quiet revolution is stirring on the 6th floor of SM Podium. In the heart of Podium Social, a new beacon of culinary artistry has arrived—Osteria Antica, the first of its name in the Philippines. More than just a restaurant, it’s an invitation to rediscover the soul of Italy, one handcrafted dish at a time.

An Italian Affair Like No Other

Step inside and be transported. The rustic crackle of a Valoriani wood-fired oven hums with the promise of perfectly blistered pizza. The scent of slow-simmered sauces, olive oil, and fresh herbs clings to the air like a long-lost memory. With its exposed brick walls, polished wood, and sleek leather seating, Osteria Antica is both a throwback to the traditional Italian osteria and a declaration of modern sophistication.

Born from the culinary vision of the Wildflour Hospitality Group, Osteria Antica marries the time-honored recipes of Italy with today’s refined palate. It is the kind of place where every detail matters—from the curve of the wine glass to the soft clink of cutlery before the first bite.

From Aperitivo to Dolce: A Symphony of Flavors

Here, dining is not rushed—it’s a ritual. Begin with an Endive Salad, crisp and citrusy, a fresh ode to Italy’s vibrant antipasti. Then comes the Rigatoni Carbonara, unapologetically rich, made the traditional Roman way—with no cream, just egg, cheese, pancetta, and pepper. It’s a dish that whispers stories of trattorias tucked along cobblestone alleys.

For dessert, surrender to the Mascarpone Cheesecake—a creamy, cloud-like indulgence that dances between decadence and restraint. Every course is a crescendo in a melody composed with love and precision.

Raise a Glass at Bar Antica

Complement your culinary journey with a pour from Bar Antica, the restaurant’s dedicated bar that boasts a finely curated selection of Italian wines, artisanal cocktails, and premium spirits. Whether it’s a bold red to match your Bolognese or a sparkling aperitif to open the night, Bar Antica elevates every meal to a celebration.

More Than a Meal—A Destination

Osteria Antica isn’t just a restaurant—it’s the heartbeat of Podium Social, a dining enclave that pulses with energy and elegance. The ambiance extends outdoors to a charming veranda, where the city’s skyline becomes the backdrop to your Italian escape. It’s an experience tailored for both cozy lunches and intimate dinners, for hearty laughter shared among friends and quiet moments over wine.

As Podium Social continues to rise as one of Metro Manila’s most vibrant gastronomic destinations, Osteria Antica stands proudly among its stars—an enduring testament to SM Supermalls’ dedication to bringing world-class dining to Filipino tables.

Discover Osteria Antica—where every dish is a story, every sip a celebration, and every visit a journey to Italy’s passionate heart. Now open at Podium Social, 6th floor, SM Podium.
