9/10Nice location. Food was delicious Unfortunately, there was a wedding with music blasting all through our dinner. I am guessing this is an unusual occurrence. It would have been outstanding otherwise

10/10The restaurant is set in a truely picturescue location controlling almost 360 degree views over Bergamo and the beautiful surrounding hills. The service, food and wine are exceptional with really friendly staff who are profesional and really helpful. The location is also perfect for weddings, parties and other events. I’d love to go back and can’t recommend it enough to anyone wishing to visit!

10/10The four of us had a lovely dinner at an outdoor table overlooking the city of Bergamo. We arrived in daylight and enjoyed watching the sunset over the mountains. The service was excellent and the food delicious from beginning to end. We recommend the sea bass, turbot, rigatoni and the tomato & mozzarella salad on a bed of flaky pastry. And the delicious chocolate tart or custard with berries. Truly a memorable meal in an outstanding setting. We walked up from our hotel near the Piazza Vecchio and walked back after dinner.

7.5/10Exceptional location on a little promontory. Dining in the garden where every table gets the view. Attentive service, sensible wine list and good food.

10/10A gorgeous villa situated on the top of the hill overlooking the surrounding valleys and mountain range. The view is breathtaking. The setting sun reveals twinkling lights of the buildings below, creating an ever changing view that captivates. It’s a bit enchanting and a bit magical. Food is simply delicious. Due to us not speaking Italian very well, our server brought us two incorrect entrees, however, these were spectacular and we’d order them again! Highly recommend the lamb. This was without a doubt the best dinner we’ve had in Italy. Do not miss out on this dining experience when traveling Italy’s northern region.

5/10The place of the restaurant is extraordinary - on the top of hill over Bergamo so the views are stunning. The tables are placed in the garden what creates magical atmosphere indeed. But that’s all. The food was realy disappointing and the prices do not reflect quality at all. We took 2 starters (melon with ham and beef tartar) and then risotto with shrimps and lamb rack. Starters were nothing special as for such highly rated place, the serving very simple and the taste so so (beef for tartar was more grated but not minced). There was only 1 shrimp in risotto and I felt like I’m eating risotto with sand - the same creaking between teeth, maybe because of sandy seafood. I left more than half as it was unpleasant to eat it :( My husband took lamb rack and it comes in the pink salt ‘coat’. The waiter unpack the dish in front of you, cuts it and serves. Again, maybe it’s a specific way to prepare meat but all these melted fat on the roasy really didn’t whet the appetite. But the meat was good - soft and juicy.

9/10The place is a classic. The views from within and from the large outdoor gardens are as good as they come. The welcome and service are excellent. The menu is good if maybe an entry or so small in each section. The food is very good but not "great". We suspect the restaurant is resting on its laurels. I just needs to slightly up its game to match the one or two other great restaurants in town. All that said, this is probably *the* place to be on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon and evening when the weather is good. Probably a huge, yet fun, scene.

10/10Amazing to visit! The food is really good, and the service is great. A short walk from Alta Bergamo. The view is absolutely stunning, and it is definitely worth a visit.

4/10The menu does not change from month to month (unsual for an upmarket restaurant) and the service was poor. We gave up on ordering dessert after waiting for half and hour, and then we had to wait another half hour for coffees and check. The private parking lot was a nightmare. We will not dine there again.

10/10The restaurant is in a small area a bit outside Bergamo Alta. The panorama from the terrace is ashtoning! Food and service are very good with choice between meat or fish. The wines proposed are also good even if the list is not huge. It deserves to be visited.

7.5/10Amazing setting, fantastic view, beautiful garden. The car parking is a great feature to have in Bergamo Alta... Food quality is on par with prices, not exactly a cheap place. Sort of formal environment.
