Osteria Du

The food here is phenomenal. The oyster mushrooms were so light and not at all greasy- so unbelievably crispy. The pizza sauce had such a lovely flavour & the cashew mozzarella was The mushroom ravioli was so rich and decadent. Nothing but amazing things to say.Food: 5/5

We went on a Wednesday evening to celebrate my birthday and had the fixed menu. It was 4 courses for $50 per person it’s more expensive on the weekend. Each person gets to choose an appetizer, then share a pizza, then each person gets their own pasta and own dessert. We split all of our items so that we could taste more of the food. All of the food was excellent! The dishes kept on getting better throughout the meal. I thought the desserts were the only thing lacking. They tasted good but, compared to how delicious the rest of the food was, they didn’t shine. They included an amuse bouche which was a coarser skewer which was a fabulous start and got me really excited for the meal to come. And also ended with a chocolate strawberry truffle as the cheque came. We opted for the wine pairing at an additional $20 per person. I guess it slightly enhanced the experience, but I think ordering a glass of your favourite wine to enjoy instead would have been just as pleasant. They asked what the occasion was when we made the reservation and we told them it was my birthday. But there was no mention of it during the meal so I don’t know why they asked. But overall it was an outstanding meal and I would definitely come back again for another special occasion.

A lovely vegan restaurant with a nice vibe. Only reason it isn't a 5 star review is the portions vs the prices. For $25, 6 pieces of ravioli is a little underwhelming no matter how excellent they were. And don't get me wrong - the food was excellent and the service very good. I just really wish the portions weren't so tiny for their pricing.

Great Fine Dining experience, the tasting menu is worth it for a first time full experience. The mango melanzane was THE most delicious and unique pizza I have ever tried, this is a must when you go! Note they do charge an 18% gratuity fee into the bill. Vegetarian options: Entire restaurant is Vegan Dietary restrictions: Accommodating

I came here after seeing a friends post about Osteria Du closing on September 30th and wanted to give it a try. Osteria Du is a vegan Italian restaurant with 4 course meals for $50 from Wednesday and Thursday and $60 for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Reservations are done online and it was pretty easy process however you need to leave your credit card info. If you don’t show up they’ll charge a $25 fee per person that’s reserved. The restaurant looks pretty nice and aesthetic. It looked great to go on a date to. I came on time and my party was a bit late ~30 minutes. The servers were pretty nice and accommodating and I didn’t feel pressure while waiting. We initially wanted to get the course meals since it came with an appetizer, shareable pizza, pasta and dessert. However a lot of the menu items contain alcohol when used. We just got the food a la carte and it actually ended up being cheaper than if we had to get the set meal. There were actually some mix ups though, we were made aware that the garlic knots is cooked with alcohol. My party wasn’t able to consume it other than myself , so we just decided to keep one order. Osteria Du was generous and comped it for us. For the meal we ordered: •Mushroom ravioli mushrooms, cauliflower and truffle paste stuffed raviolis, topped with butter sauce, mushroom and truffle oil This was so good! I love truffle oil and I can taste it here. •Garlic knots Topped with almond Parmesan served with house made marinara sauce This was okay, I honestly didn’t taste any alcohol in it and the almond Parmesan didn’t taste artificial. •Fritto fungi Lightly battered and fried oyster mushrooms, chili pepper, served with pesto souce This was so good! It’s thick and reminds me of chicken tenders. It was also very flavourful and you can’t tell it’s mushrooms at all. •Caesar Deluxe romaine lettuce and kale, with croutons. tomatoes, pickled onions, and almond Parmesan. served with caesar dressing I usually don’t like to order salad when I go out but this one was so good. Again, the almond Parmesan tasted just like regular Parmesan. Usually dairy/vegan cheese has a distinct taste. •Ricotta affumicato spicy marzana tomato sauce, cherry tomatoes, smoked ricotta cheese, pesto topped with arugula and drizzled lightly with olive oil This one was just okay. •Mango Melanzone spicy mango and cashew base, with grilled eggplant, cashew crema, romesco sauce and arugula I loved this pizza the most! There’s so many flavours and spice. However it might throw you off if you don’t like eggplants. •forence pesto souce, oyster mushrooms and fresh white mushrooms, roosted grape tomatoes, cultured cashew almond ricotta, pickled shollots, truffle oil This one was 2nd after the mango pizza: I like the light touch of the truffle oil. Overall, Osteria du was a great place to visit and try. It sucks to hear that they’re closing, but hopefully they open again one day.

I wanted to try this restaurant when I heard that it is closing in September. We were absolutely delighted with all our dishes as we chose the pre fix menu. Everything from the salad to the pizza to the pasta were very tasty and delicious and good portions. The highlight of the night was the spiced cake with the cardamom ice cream. Ummmmm I wish I could eat that every day. Amazing service and beautiful atmosphere. Thank you so much again!

We went here in August 2023. Reservations are recommended at this vegan gem. We decided on the margherita pizza and the eggplant Parm. We started with the garlic knots which were fantastic. The eggplant Parm was small for the price but the pizza blew us away. The 'ricotta' was so creamy and delicious. Highly recommend this place whether you're vegan or not. 5/5. ____________________________________________ Follow me for more reviews, tips and photos. Vegetarian options: Vegan

Very unique pizza options, and the mushroom ravioli was delicious. Quite happy with the mocktail options as well. Also, got a glass of free bubbly for my birthday and who doesn’t love a good birthday freebie?!Food: 5/5

We got the prezzo fisso fixed menu and were blown away! Came with 2 appies salad and oyster mushroom calamari, 1 pizza, 2 pastas eggplant parmigiana and ravioli funghi, and 2 desserts tiramisu and torta. Delicious and high quality ingredients. Would love to see more vegan Italian restaurants like this!Food: 5/5

Wonderful finer dining vegan food. We usually go to Avelo for anniversary dinners but this year we tried Osteria Du. A bit more casual and not quiet as fancy as Avelo, Osteria Du was still very enjoyable. It was also considerably less expensive. We definitely enjoyed our meal and would come again.Food: 5/5
