Review Summary

Osteria Schiavio is widely regarded as a hidden gem, praised for its authentic Italian cuisine and warm, inviting atmosphere despite its unique location within an office building. Most guests highlight the delicious pasta dishes, including the tuffoli and gnocchi, as well as the flavorful pizzas and generous appetizers like meatballs and arancini. The service is frequently described as outstanding, with many patrons commending the staff for their professionalism, attentiveness, and friendly energy, even during busy periods. While the vast majority of experiences are highly positive, some diners have noted concerns regarding portion sizes, occasional inconsistencies in food preparation, or challenges with cross contamination for those with gluten sensitivities. Overall, it is considered a go-to spot in downtown Montreal for a quality meal in a comfortable and unpretentious setting.

Service & staff were really nice, food was very mediocre. Not a 4.8 unfortunately more like a 4.0.

Sheldon rocks. Great service & excellent food. At first I was unsure because it's in a large building - but once inside the resto, & more importantly, once we tried the food, we were very happy.

A true hidden gem! The food was absolutely delicious-we ordered the Caesar salad, pasta Bolognese, & a pizza, & everything was excellent. Most importantly, our waiter, Sheldon, made the experience even better. He was incredibly kind, genuinely welcoming, & radiated such positive energy & happiness. His outstanding service made our meal even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Une excellente adresse pour passer un moment agréable en ville. L'ambiance est conviviale, notamment avec les jolies nappes à carreaux rouges & blancs qui donnent tout de suite le ton.

Nous avons particulièrement apprécié la générosité des portions. Les cannellonis au fromage & les lasagnes étaient délicieux, tout comme les frites bien croustillantes accompagnant le burger. C'est une très belle découverte.

Food was good. Service was reasonably good, however, we had one person with a gluten allergy. They have a gluten free menu, but it is definitely not celiac safe. They said the pizza doe gets made right beside the pasta station & flour gets everywhere. The only safe food for them to eat would have been the salads.

With that said, why bother advertising a gluten free menu if you aren't taking precautions to prevent cross contamination?

I might have given higher reviews if not for the gluten free offerings being most certainly cross contaminated.

The food was industrial & inedible. I ordered ragú & there was no ragu sauce in the ragu, just disgusting cheese. Way too expensive, at least the staff is nice. The restaurant is above a metro station.

Everything was delicious. Service was great. We had meatballs, Margharetia pizza to start - delicious. Drinks were very good. Cacio Pepe gnooci was unreal. Christian took great care of us.
