Osteria Italiana

A return to an old friend and lovely to have memories refreshed. A great night with time to enjoy the experience

I booked 5 weeks ahead for a very special celebration & politely asked for a booth, got put upstairs where the atmosphere was seriously lacking and the air conditioning was really cold, blowing on our hair & backs making it uncomfortable, another table had requested it so we had to put up with it, not good. One of our entrees didn’t arrive no one took the time to inform us that they ran out we had to ask, very disappointing. Not at all like previous visits, I won’t be going back it was overpriced for the meal and lack of service. I feel like my special occasion was spoilt. I honestly couldn’t wait to leave & I had really been looking forward to this for 5 weeks.

due to restrictions only outdoor seating was available. Unfortunately there were a lot of insects and night construction that took away from the experience. Please get citronella candles

Beautiful place with exceptional service!! Food was lovely and will definitely be back to try more from the menu.

Service and food were exemplary! Amazing vegan menu! One of my favourite restaurants ❤️

Amazing food and beautiful atmosphere, highly recommend for all dietary needs

They had a great vegan menu really good. A great dinning experience.

The restaurant was so clean, warm and inviting. The food, as always was beyond amazing. Fantastic, authentic Italian that caters for everyone!

Wonderful service and staff! Food was lovely too I had food from the vegan Menu and my hubby at contemporary both of us enjoyed it

The food was brilliant, elegant atmosphere. It was great to have an option for different dietary needs. We look forward to returning soon.

Always a favourite. Great food, decor, service and ambiance. Thank you.

Great vegan menu. Flavours on point and textures to die for. Staff superb. Looking forward to our next visit already.

Food is always fresh and amazing, especially the vegan food.

The choice of meals was excellent - contemporary, vegan & gluten free. The food was delicious. Superb. Will definitely go there again.

Food as always fresh and interesting. Vegan calamari is a must try!

We absolutely LOVED it!!!! One of the best meals I have eaten. Will be back again! The vegan calamari was just amazing... The only two bits of feedback would be 1) the side of vegetables were way over cooked and over oiled/buttered 2) There was someone sat below us eating a huge piece of meat that we could see/smell. I understand it is a mix dietary venue however considering you can chose your napkin it would be nice if they sat meat eaters away from vegans (as best as possible) - Can't wait to come back though! YUM

It was ok, service was friendly but the food was not memorable

Great authentic food was great food and great service would reccomend

Finally a restaurant that has 4 different menus for vegan gluten free low fodmap and contemporary, and colored serviette based on your choice of menu. Each dish will be delivered with a sticker on the plate so it doesn't get mixed up. Amazing the quality of ingredients and variety of dishes. Modern environment with nice relaxing music and professional service. We had a lovely Sunday lunch and will definitely go back with family and friends.

I have eaten here a couple of times. The food has been exceptional on both occasions. And the wine/drinks list well chosen. The full Vegan, low FODMAP and Gluten free menus are a huge bonus.

Overall, my guest and I are happy with the service and continue to visit the venue frequently. Not only does the venue offer many variety of tasty options on the menu for all needs but it carters for individual needs. I was astonished by the sustainable practises.... would highly recommend :D

Amazing vegan Italian options. Would highly recommend. Will be returning.

Lovely experience, friendly and courteous staff. Stunning traditional food that was high quality. Vegan menu was one of the best we have tried in Melbourne. Keep up the good work

Delicious vegan Italian food, best pannacotta I’ve ever had :)

Quite simply amazing, high quality food with lovely attentive service. Couldn’t recommend higher.

Good food. Great to have all the options for different needs in one place.

Able to accomodate a large group comfortably. Two of our party were gluten free so we’re pleased to have a range of choices. We were able to chat and be heard as it was not a busy night. The staff were attentive. Food was fine most of us had a dish of pasta and a glass or two of wine..

One of my favourite places to eat in the world. Caters for all diets, vegan, gluten and lowfood map.

It was a very pleasant evening with delicious food and my food intolerances were all catered for!

Brilliant food! We are vegetarians not vegans but the options were great! Daughter had the vegan calamari, wow! Pasta’s divine as well! And the deserts! Delicious! We will definitely be back.

Amazing vegan food. Great for everyone with different dietary requirements

Excellent vegan options. Would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for some good Italian food.

It was great to have all of our various diets catered for. All meals were delicious. Thank you!

Amazing pasta! Would not have guessed it was vegan. Wow.

Really lovely Italian food, wine and service - been here many times

Lovely service and great food! I will definitely be back.

I have been to this restaurant many times and normally love my experience. On this occasion I as a vegan with lactose intolerance was given dairy. I was sick for almost 3 days. I did try to communicate with the restaurant prior to lezving this review but I never received a response. If dining here with dietary requirements, please triple check when ordering.

Tried it for the first time for my birthdsy dinner. Lovely staff and great food.

I came here for mine and my husband's first wedding anniversary in Saturday night. The menu is clearly labelled for vegan, gluten free, low FODMAP and normal menu which I thought was amazing. The food was delicious, the restaurant is lovely, the staff are friendly, I highly recommend!

Service was very slow . Food was average . Overpriced for what it was
