ABOUT OSTERIA SAVIO VOLPE
Located in the heart of Fraserhood, Osteria Savio Volpe is a lively neighbourhood osteria rooted in the spirit of traditional Italian cooking — rustic, honest, and made to be shared. Our menu features handmade pasta, wood-fired meats, and thoughtfully sourced ingredients, all served with a bold Italian wine list and the kind of warm, genuine hospitality that makes guests feel right at home.
As the original member of Banda Volpi — the acclaimed restaurant group behind Elio Volpe, La Tana, and Pepino’s Spaghetti House — Savio is part of a team recognized for creating some of Canada’s most well-regarded dining experiences. Banda Volpi (meaning “gang of foxes”) has earned a national reputation, celebrated for emphasizing thoughtful cuisine, warm hospitality, and exceptional service. The group has received numerous accolades, including Michelin recommendations, a variety of Vancouver Magazine awards, Gold at the Vancouver International Wine Festival, and placements on Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants.
Joining our back-of-house team means being part of a company that values excellence, collaboration, and craft, with opportunities to grow and evolve across all locations.
