Osteria Giulia sprung to life in our imaginations as a tribute to Italian traditions of the past. We wanted to create one simple, beautiful thing. Somewhere outside of your busy life, outside of your surroundings, outside of time. An environment, an experience, an entire evening. Osteria Giulia is intimate, warm and familiar. We’ve revelled in her every detail. We’ve established a rarified menu focusing on Northern Italian cuisine and delicate coastal, Mediterranean flavour. Giulia is a new imagining of what an Italian restaurant can be. It always was the place of our dreams, the reason for our collaboration, and the culmination of—and conduit for—our collective passion.

I treasure the nights we eat here. Very likely more than 30 visits since the Danforth location opened. Business dinners, family dinners, birthdays … any excuse really. Truly one of the only restaurants I will order the fish dish. Their Calamari is the best in town (non traditional that’s why it works). Any of the dishes with mama’s tomato sauce are the bomb. Salads always fresh and lively (mushroom my fave). Be sure to ask for a hot chilli condiment jar for your table. My best gal Lillian just loved it that stuff! We miss Charlie. I think she is at the prince Edward County location.

My partner and I came down to celebrate my birthday, and we had an absolute great time. The addition of the New York style pizza was awesome, and the classic lineup on the menu from both food and beverages was simply outstanding. The staff is also amazing and we always have a fantastic time when we go down there to celebrate special moments. GO TO LIBRETTO! THEY ARE AWESOME!
