Bellona Jane

What is Bellona Jane? Located at 276 Jane Street at the intersection of Bloor West Village and Baby Point, Bellona Jane is a dedicated plant-inspired Italian trattoria founded by husband-and-wife duo Johnnie and Aggie Fusco. The dining room feels like a classic neighbourhood osteria rather than a sterile health-food joint, featuring warm lighting, inviting dining tables, an intimate cocktail bar, and an upstairs private Cantina designed for group dinners up to 30.

Bellona Jane Menu & What to Order Drawing from family recipes rooted in the Campania town of Bellona, the scratch kitchen turns out vegetarian and vegan Italian comfort food that skips mock-meat gimmicks in favour of thoughtful technique. The cremini mushroom rigatoni and layered eggplant parmesan are local favourites, alongside bright plates like the lemon pesto cream pasta and crispy carciofi fritti. Thin-crust pizzas—notably the rosemary-scented potato Olivia and the roasted garlic Sofia—pair effortlessly with craft spritzes, mocktails, and Italian wines curated by Aggie.

Know Before You Go Tables fill quickly on Friday and Saturday evenings, so book ahead through their website if dining with a group, though solo diners and pairs can often snag walk-in bar seating. The restaurant is situated just north of Bloor Street West, an easy walk or brief bus ride from Jane subway station with metered street parking out front. Operating hours run continuously from noon Tuesday through Sunday, with the kitchen closed on Mondays.
