Osteria Giulia

Absolutely loved my experience at Osteria Giulia. The tuna, caviar burrata, and veal carpaccio were all perfectly balanced—fresh, elegant, and full of flavor. The black cod was a standout—melt-in-your-mouth texture with a beautifully layered taste. Service was top-notch—attentive without being intrusive. I seek out Michelin-starred restaurants when I travel, and this one truly delivered. Unique flavors, refined atmosphere, and a menu worth coming back for. Can’t wait for my next visit!

We celebrated my 45th, the staff, service, food/drinks were outstanding! Highly recommend (along with their sister resto Giulietta) and are well deserving of the Michelin Star. To make it even more of a special night, Drake made an appearance near the end of the night and it looked like he too was on a date night.

An incredible experience. The team decided on this place for dinner. I know nothing about Italian cuisine and decided to tag along for the ride. The restaurant is situated just north of Bloor on Avenue Road. The restaurant has no signage, so I didn’t know we had arrived. Inside was an elegant space. The greeter was right there, super friendly, and took out jackets and bags so we could enjoy our dining experience without all the clutter. We were seated immediately afterwards. The waitress was very pleasant. She listed off the daily specials and made recommendations on wine for pairing. We started off with some cocktails and appetizers. We tried the bread and olive oil, meat platter, and toast with truffle butter and anchovies. OMG! The ingredients were top notch. The bread was so fluffy and light. The meat and cheese had the right saltiness and tanginess to balance. When the entrees came, they seemed like a small portion. We each had a bite of each others dishes. The flavors just exploded in your mouth. The pasta texture had a distinctive bounce to it. Perfection. For dessert we had the mille-feuille and tiramisu. The Mille-feuille was very fruity tasting. But not overpowering. The tiramisu had a strong hint of rum and dark chocolate. I’m not a tiramisu fan but eating this made me one very quickly. Overall the dining experience was awesome. It was fairly pricey. Our bill came out to over 600 for four of us. But even so, it is definitely worth checking out. A really good date place!

Walked in without a booking at 6.50pm on a Monday evening and was able to be seated at the bar. Staff very friendly and professional, personal without being too in your face. Highlight was the veal and tuna dish but everything we ate was delicious. Very decent wine list too. Over heard another diner praising the gluten free pasta which I will definitely try next time, it was not listed as an option on the menu.

Fantastic food with top tier service. Everything is prepared with care and deliver incredible taste. The only issue was the freezing cold AC, bring a sweater even in summer!

Easily one of the top 5 restaurants in Toronto! The flavors are incredibly unique and absolutely delicious — every dish offers something special and far from ordinary. The menu is thoughtfully curated, with no basic or filler items, just standout plates that leave a lasting impression. Even the burrata cheese, as simple as it is, it was the creamiest and freshest I’ve had thus far. The staff is fantastic: attentive, friendly, and genuinely invested in creating a great dining experience. I absolutely love this place — can’t recommend it enough!

Osteria Giulia is a masterclass in modern Italian fine dining—and its Michelin star (2023) is completely deserved. The food is nothing short of exceptional, with each dish crafted with precision, balance, and bold simplicity. There’s a quiet confidence in the kitchen that you can taste. The ambience is small, intimate, and beautifully designed—a perfect blend of refined elegance and coastal Italian warmth. It feels upscale without being showy. Service was flawless—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate. From the sommelier pairings to the timing of each course, everything was executed with precision. Osteria Giulia isn’t just a great Italian restaurant—it’s one of Toronto’s very best, period. An unforgettable dining experience.

We had an amazing time at Osteria Giulia. Every dish we tried was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. For the quality of the food and the overall experience, it’s definitely worth the price. I’ll absolutely be back for more.
