• Italian • Yorkville

Booked 56 times today

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.

Delicious five star Ligurian dining in a beautifully designed space. Top quality- fresh and most appealing presentation. Flavours and complexity to die for. The staff were slightly wooden but that is minor compared to a most exceptional taste experience.

Our experience was amazing from the time we walked in to the time we left. They really do value the customer, I asked one gentleman where the washroom was and he escorted me all the way there. Our waitress, did not catch her name unfortunately, was outstanding! She introduced us to a new wine, and was very knowledgeable about the wine! They even offered my partner and I a complimentary dessert for our anniversary! Will definitely be returning!

Phenomenal meal - completely surpassed even my highest expectations. Excellent, top notch service that was the perfect amount of attentive and professional that was never disruptive but always available. The signature tasting menu is incredible and a testament to the chefs’ vision and heritage, and both the premium and the classic wine pairings are not to be missed with their thoughtful craftsmanship and creativity. Elements such as the eel gelato were new to my family and myself, however I have never been so thankful that I put my trust in the chefs. I truly cannot recommend highly enough.
