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.
We came in today for the first time & absolutely loved it. Everything was delicious! We started with the arancinis & meatballs, both full of flavour & perfectly cooked. For our mains, we had the Tuffoli & the Gnocchi Cacio e Pepe, which were equally delish. The ambiance is warm & inviting, & our server was very attentive & kind. We'll definitely be back!

Excellente découverte au centre-ville de Montréal! Nous avons goûté aux arancini & aux boulettes de viande en entrée, toutes deux savoureuses & bien assaisonnées. En plat principal, les gnocchis Cacio e Pepe étaient parfaitement onctueux & les tuffoli un vrai délice. Service chaleureux & ambiance agréable. On reviendra sans hésiter!
Have visited this restaurant twice last week & I have been really impressed both times. Great food & great service. I have travelled from New Zealand & am looking forward to going back again soon!
Great Italian place to eat pizza & pasta! The pizza dough was thin, pasta well done without it being too salty! Nicely decorated & great service! Would go back!
