Très safisfait de mon repas du midi à Osteria. J'ai pris le poisson du jour & c'était un bon choix. Plat bien présenté, bonne proportion, bonne cuisson avec des légumes grillés. La terrasse est agréable par beau temps! & le service est attentif & diligent.

One of the best experiences I've ever had when it comes to organizing a private event! I recently hosted my sister's bridal shower at Osteria MKT, & the entire staff was incredibly professional, attentive, & accommodating from start to finish.
The manager, Leo, & our hostess, Micaela, were especially amazing. They were always available to answer any questions we had & made the planning process so much smoother. We had originally reserved a private room upstairs, which was lovely but a bit tight for the number of guests we were expecting. During our visit to see the space, Leo suggested we use the main dining area instead, as it offered much more room & would be a better fit for our vision-& he was absolutely right. That flexibility truly elevated the whole event.
One of the things that made the experience even more stress-free was the fact that they allowed us to drop off all of our decorations & desserts the night before. This small detail made a huge difference, giving us peace of mind on the day of the event. On the day itself, the staff handled all the setup & did an outstanding job bringing everything to life just as we imagined.
The food was delicious & thoughtfully presented. Our menu included three appetizers, a main course, & dessert. I loved that they served all three appetizers-it was the perfect way for everyone to try a bit of everything. Everything was reasonably priced, especially considering the quality of the service & the experience overall.
If you're looking to host a private event, I highly recommend Osteria MKT. I'll definitely be returning as a customer. Huge thanks to the entire staff for making my sister's special day absolutely perfect!
Nice decor, friendly efficient service.
The lamb pappardelle was great but typical. The tiramisu was a bit more unique & a perfect ending to the meal. Wine recommendation worked well. The pear martini was a smooth.
I Went to Osteria MKT with a friend the other night & we were delighted! I had the oysters to start off with, served as I love them, & then the pappardelle with lamb as my main. Honestly, one of the best plates of pasta I've had in the city :drooling_face:. Their tiramisu is quite good as well :) & Shelby was great too. Will be back soon!

Huge thank you to Leo & staff, was there Saturday night for a private event. The service was awesome & the food was excellent.My guests & I were extremely happy!!!!!
Excellent service & the food was delicious.
I highly recommend for a private event!!!!
Great job guys keep up the awesome service & excellent food!!!!!
We had the lamb shank pasta & seafood risotta, & both dishes were fair to midland. The atmosphere is quiet, dark, & romantic. The staff were wonderful, but the food was just incredibly underwhelming for the portions & price point. There was just nothing exceptional about this place, but we did enjoy it.
Been here a few times & the food here has been consistently good! Great place to go in downtown for a nice lunch or dinner. It is a cozy place, well lit. Prices are fair for the quality & attention to detail you get for your plate. They don't have many items on the menu but that means what they have that day, they will do it well. The menu does change according to what is available on the season. The staff is also very kind & hospitable. Would go back to try more dishes!
Had an excellent dinner here. The pappardelle flat pasta was yummy with melt in your mouth lamb pieces. The Moretti fresh on tap tasted great! Highly recommended 👌
The food here was excellent, top notch. Probably the best pizza I have had in ages. While the portions are small, they are quite filling. The American pizza with spicy honey & Barrata as well as the pistachio tartufo were out of this world. I was also impressed with the salmon tartare (I never eat seafood) & found it fresh. Service was excellent too.

Bob restaurant italien le risotto aux fruits de mer & les pâtes bolognaises étaient bons ! Déçu par contre par le dessert les caneloni pistache chocolat pas senti le goût de la pistache....beau restaurant avec une belle cavé à vins
The service & food is amazing. I don't know about weekends but during weekdays it provides a nice calm atmosphere. Also but from the tables I can tell it's a clean place.
Bel endroit mais malheureusement le repas ne fut pas à la hauteur de mes attentes. Le cocktail litchi martini, le filet mignon & le tiramisu étaient bons. Rien de mémorable concernant l assiette de charcuteries. Le plat de rigatonis fut loin d'être une réussite, un flop total. Désagréable en bouche, legoût fort de la vodka prenait toute la place. Ce fut mentionné au serveur mais le plat ne fut pas changé ou déduit de l addition. Il a mentionné qu il ferait le message au chef. Service correct, sans chaleur ni vrmt d intérêt. Dommage car j avais hâte de manger à cet endroit, mes attentes étaient définitivement trop hautes....
Back in 2017, I stumbled in to Ostrtia MKT, as a Toronto highschooler in the middle of possibly the worst snowstorm I've ever experienced. I was greeted warmly & was sat to enjoy a $25 warmhearted tasting menu. I still remember the taste of the risotto which would partly inspire me to pursue the culinary arts. However last year I went again in pursuit of the warmth & love I tasted all those years ago. I was let down as all the dishes tasted empty to me & lacked the passion I remembered. I still hold this restaurant in high regards though.
