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.

The restaurant was small and cozy and the waiter really polite. The main problem was that there isnt an english menu, only italian, and it was really hard to find what to eat. We decided to stick to two plain plates which were good, but were hoping to be able to try something different if we were able to read the menu.. The waiter tried to help us out but didnt actually work.

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.

Once it was absolutely better, today it doesn’t worth the visit. Average quality and very little serving (“tomini” dish, was actually half “tomino” divided in 4 small pieces) Furthermore poor wine choice and people -not actual customers- enter into the restaurant just to use toilet… and they were let to enjoy a rest at unused tables too…

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!

The host was very kind and entertaining, even for our 5 year old daughter. Dishes where typical and generally very good, we very much appreciated the "guancia brasata". One dish, off the menu, with truffles could have been more flavourful. All in all a good experience.

White truffle pasta and good suggestion for the wine. Excellent dessert for chocolate lovers. High price even with the discount but truffle is a special dish.

Great service, delicious well sourced food. My rare beef starter with horseradish sauce was incredably tender and tasty as was my husband vitello tonata. Pasta course was also amazing , the plin os some of the best we have had in Turin and my crab pasta was homemade and tated of the sea. We are in Turin at least twice a year and we always eat here and will continue to do so. Thankyou for a great experience and meal our first after lockdown.

Very nice food, cosy and friendly atmosphere, waiter forgot to let us taste an expensive wine before pouring it, but small detail in an otherwise very friendly and satisfactory meal. Recommended, would go there again

Great food and service. We really enjoyed our meal. I had a classic Tajarin with white truffles to start and Goose breast as a main dish. Very well cooked with great flavour. My partner had the Tomini (a typical cheese starter) and Battuta al Coltello (tartare) which she enjoyed very much. Two glasses of local red wine, Nebbiolo and Barbera, very good indeed and very tasty dessert. Beautiful little restaurant in a quiet part of town at a very good price. Book ahead as it’s worth it!
