Slated to open its doors in downtown San Mateo this Wednesday, OSTERIA COPPA will offer housemade salumi (like lomo, mortadella, and duck prosciutto), antipasti, and handcrafted artisanal pasta and pizza from chef Chanan Kamen (Quince, Jardinière). The pastas are sure to feature a deft touch due to Kamen’s time making pasta at Quince; one of my favorites, agnolotti dal plin (filled with veal, pork, and guinea hen) is on the menu. There’s also a spacious bar (40 seats), featuring Italian cocktails and a mostly Italian wine list with wines available by the quartino. The 40-seat patio will allow diners to take advantage of San Mateo’s great weather, and the 100-seat main dining room features hewn wood floors, white butcher paper-topped tables, and butter yellow walls. 139 South B St. at 2nd Ave., San Mateo, 650-579-6021.
