Pasta-forward Italian restaurant to open in Vancouver's Yaletown

Jun 25 2026, 7:09 pm

Culinary duo Dom and Frank Morra are doing it again. After bringing multiple much-loved Italian concepts to the city, including Via Tevere, Dante Italian Sandwich, Don’t Argue Pizza, and Straight Outta Brooklyn, the brothers are preparing to launch their latest restaurant, called Rosalia Osteria.

Named after their grandmother Rosalia, the new 33-seat, 600 sq. ft restaurant is opening in the former home of Robba da Matti Yaletown’s outpost.

Here, the team will be serving a pasta-forward menu inspired by the warmth and tradition of Sunday dinner at Nonna’s table. Think shareable antipasti, fresh seasonal salads, classic Italian desserts, and a thoughtfully curated drinks program all anchored by its house-made pasta.

The space is being designed by Tomlenovich Design, who are drawing inspiration from the unhurried elegance of an Italian piazza. Expect soft rose tones, timeless European design details, and a garden-inspired courtyard patio, which will house 20 of the restaurant’s 33 seats.

An exact opening date for Rosalia Osteria has yet to be announced, but expect to dine here sometime soon. Once open, it will operate daily from 4 p.m. until late.
