About the restaurant

We love everything about restaurants. In particular, we love Italian. We love the food, the wine, the diversity, and the pride that Italians take in hosting a memorable experience.

We’ve spent our lives developing restaurants. From a simple deli or a laidback pub to award-winning fine dining, we have worked hard and are proud to present Autostrada Osteria.

It’s a place with a simple philosophy. Inspired by the casual osterie of Italy, the focus is on a simple menu where quality ingredients shine, regional wines that represent a place, and a room filled with warmth and bustle.

We hope you enjoy what we’ve poured our hearts into.

This was the last week of this local favourite Italian place, so we wanted to enjoy one final meal. Autostrada did not disappoint! Everything was absolutely top notch. We will go visit them at their other downtown location.

Commercial Drive

About the restaurant

Bar Corso is more than just an apparition of Italian culture - it is the missing piece of Italian ethos on Vancouver's beloved Commercial Drive. Purposefully nestled into the heart of Little Italy, we are a tasting lounge, here for you to taste different regions of Italy through our cocktails, wines, grappa, Amari, and modern Cicchetti.

We were a party of four going before going to the theatre afterwards. It was our first time. We arrived early and there were few patrons, but that changed with a steady stream coming in over the time we were there. We thoroughly enjoyed being able to converse without loud music or loud patrons. Such a pleasure! The service was friendly and attentive, and food was very tasty. We will be returning.
