Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Osteria Schiavio as a welcoming spot with delicious Italian cooking and attentive service that many find friendly and professional. The menu shines with fresh pastas, lasagna, gnocchi, and pizza, and the atmosphere feels relaxed yet stylish, with a downtown vibe and occasionally an indoor terrace. While several visits praise consistency and value, a few notes mention slower or inconsistent service when busy and some dishes arriving cold, suggesting these were rare exceptions. Many diners highlight the suitability for a date night, lunch, or after work drinks, with the sense that the food is homemade and flavorful, making Osteria Schiavio a reliable go-to for Italian cuisine in the area. Overall it comes across as a charming hidden gem with great atmosphere, solid food, and attentive service that invites a return visit.

Delicious caprese salad & lasagna. Lovely staff

Unfortunately, our experience was really bad. I usually follow ratings & reviews through Google Maps. Once I saw the 4.8 rating for this restaurant, I immediately went there with my family, only to find really low-quality food (like reheated food) & terrible service (he took our order after 25 minutes of waiting). We asked for two small glasses of beer, & he brought two big ones. We asked for lasagna, & after 15 minutes he said there wasn't any more lasagna. Immediately, I thought: Which Italian restaurant doesn't have lasagna? Only ones that previously bought frozen lasagna instead of preparing it from scratch. That is my impression of this'Italian restaurant.'

A true hidden gem that delivers on every level-flavour, service, & atmosphere. Tucked slightly off the main path, this spot is well worth seeking out.

Service was standout: Sheldon managed the room seamlessly as a one-man host, bartender, & server, all while remaining attentive & welcoming. The food arrived at a comfortable pace & exceeded expectations. The penne featured a vibrant basil flavour with a perfectly crisp, gratinéed cheese topping. The meat lasagna was exceptional-rich, well-balanced, & cooked al dente (easily one of the best we've had). Even the burger, though slightly small, was prepared exactly to preference, & the fries were outstanding.

The space is stylish yet relaxed, with thoughtful details like linen tablecloths & a cohesive, modern aesthetic. Pricing is very reasonable for a downtown location near Old Montreal.

A small note for improvement: the washroom setup could be refined, as it felt a bit cramped & was missing soap during our visit.

Overall, an easy recommendation for anyone looking for high-quality food & genuine service in a comfortable, unpretentious setting.

Came here for lunch on our last day in mtl before our journey home to Toronto. The food is amazing & our waiter was lovely. We ordered the lasagna & penne bolognese gratin, we will definitely be back next time we're in town!

It was our first time at Schiavio's...it won't be our last. The food, Lasagna & gnocchi cace e pepe followed by the tartufo a limone & mini cannoli were authentic & delicious. The service was excellent. Christian, the manager, provided the highest level of attention to detail & was perfectly charming & from our region in Italy.....Le Marche...a bonus. A great go-to spot for lunch or dinner in the downtown core!
