Vancouver has seen plenty of growth when it comes to new Italian restaurants, whether it be a new concept from an all-star team or fresh locations from much-loved chains. Now, another restaurant is looking to join the fray: Osteria Otto.
“Nestled in the heart of Mount Pleasant, Otto brings together the spirit of Italian osterie, the intimacy of Japanese hi-fi bars, and the warmth of Mediterranean flavours,” shared the restaurant on OpenTable.
Details on the new spot are sparse, with an opening date still up in the air according to the restaurant’s Instagram. However, the restaurant lists bookable reservations for as early as Dec. 17, so we anticipate the restaurant will be opening sooner rather than later.
“Otto is a character—calm, stylish, culturally curious. His living room is our dining room: intimate, soulful, and elegantly relaxed,” added the restaurant. “Enjoy a curated selection of wines, exceptional original cocktails, and a menu built for lingering, tasting, and connecting.”
When it comes to the drink program, according to its listed menu, we can expect a selection of wines, beers, and signature cocktails as well. Highlights include the Blackbird (Suntory Toki Whisky, Fino Palomino, Tio Pepe, Giffard Abricot, Pine Tea), Otto Negroni (Tanqueray No.10, Campari, Carpano Antica Formula, Palo Santo Mist), and Sicilian Margarita (Tequileño Reposado, Cointreau, Luxardo Amaretto, Orange Marmalade, Lime), to name a few. Food offerings have yet to be shared.
According to OpenTable, once open, Osteria Otto will operate Wednesday to Saturday from 3 p.m. to midnight, and Sunday from 3 to 11 p.m. Be sure to check its Instagram for updated hours.
