Osteria Giulia sprung to life in our imaginations as a tribute to Italian traditions of the past. We wanted to create one simple, beautiful thing. Somewhere outside of your busy life, outside of your surroundings, outside of time. An environment, an experience, an entire evening. Osteria Giulia is intimate, warm and familiar. We’ve revelled in her every detail. We’ve established a rarified menu focusing on Northern Italian cuisine and delicate coastal, Mediterranean flavour. Giulia is a new imagining of what an Italian restaurant can be. It always was the place of our dreams, the reason for our collaboration, and the culmination of—and conduit for—our collective passion.

We recently celebrated our anniversary at Danico, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, the service, ambiance, and attention to detail were absolutely impeccable. The food was outstanding – every dish was expertly crafted, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. Meeting the chef during our visit was a special highlight, and it was evident that the culinary team is passionate about delivering excellence. Our server was exceptional, offering attentive and knowledgeable service throughout the evening. He went above and beyond, even taking us on a tour of the restaurant, which added a unique and memorable touch to our experience. The ambiance at Danico was elegant yet inviting, providing the perfect backdrop for a special occasion. The staff made us feel truly valued, and their thoughtful gesture of presenting us with a gift for our anniversary was a testament to the care and dedication they extend to their guests. Every aspect of our evening at Danico was flawless. It was a perfect balance of exceptional service, outstanding cuisine, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. We look forward to returning and highly recommend Danico to anyone seeking a truly memorable dining experience.
