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.

    🌟🍴 **A Culinary Masterpiece with Unforgettable Service!** Linny’s Restaurant on Ossington is an absolute gem! From the moment we stepped in, the vibe was warm and inviting, but the real star of the show was the **food**—**next level** doesn’t even begin to cover it. We opted for the **Chef’s Special**, and wow, every dish was a symphony of flavors. Each bite felt like a celebration, with ingredients so fresh and combinations so inventive that we’re still dreaming about it days later. But the experience wasn’t just about the food—it was elevated by **Roy**, the standout server who’s clearly a talent in his own right. His knowledge of the menu was encyclopedic, his recommendations spot-on, and his energy infectious. Roy didn’t just serve; he curated the evening, turning a great meal into a **truly memorable event**. His passion for hospitality shines through, and he deserves all the praise! Linny’s is a must-visit for anyone craving creativity on a plate and service that goes above and beyond. **Shoutout to Roy** for making our night extraordinary—this place is a Toronto treasure! 👏🍷 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    The food was exceptional as well as the presentation. Our waitress was lovely and they made our anniversary special with an anniversary card and dessert plates that had Happy Anniversary on them. A very nice touch.
