Via Principe Tommaso 16/a | San Salvario, 10125 Turin, Italy
What travelers say:
This is a small and friendly restaurant with excellent food prepared by Alberto, a young and enthusiastic chef. I was intrigued by the finanziera alla Piemontese; he asked (in English) if I was brave enough to try it. He prepared a small portion of it, telling me not to think about what was in it. It did taste very nice. The agnolotti a sugo d’arrosto was superb.

Excellent food. We got the Piemonte tasting menu (6 courses). Everything was good. The staff was very attentive, friendly and English speaking. The restaurant was cozy. Should we mention a single thing that weighs down it will be the meat course that could have been more inspiring.
Brilliant cooking in a down-to-earth atmosphere. Highly recommended for honest Piemontese cuisine without the fuss.
We came just for the truffles and it was worth the trip! So scrumptious! I love a restaurant where the owner also serves his guests - with pride for his hospitality and creative food art. Haute cuisine indeed
We enjoyed a fantastic four course dinner with delicacies from Piedmont, such as vitello tonnato, cured salmon and steak tartar with porcini as a starter, followed by local handmade pasta with a mix of three meats, gorgeous! Main dish was slow-cooked beef with porcini melting in the mouth, with a dessert of peach with chocolate and biscotti, The accompanying wines (Arneis, Barbera, Barbaresco, Barolo and Barolo Chinato) proved an excellent pairing with the food, and the kind and attentive service (in English) made this an excellent experience of Piedmont cuisine. Highly recommended!
