Service is professional and welcoming, although pacing issues were noted. The atmosphere is cozy and warm, featuring wooden decor and soft music, but spaces can feel cramped and occasionally noisy.

Suitable for diners seeking authentic Piedmontese flavors and a cozy rural atmosphere, but price-sensitive guests should proceed with caution.
€€Seafood, Seasonal Cuisine
A tiny gem in the historic center, just steps from the San Michele towers. A very intimate setting, with a refined yet informal atmosphere. The cuisine? Seafood with a seasonal twist, including standouts such as the surprising Brandapolenta: creamy baccala, crispy polenta, taggiasca olive pâté. Reserving a table – especially for outdoor seating – is a must!

€€Contemporary, Seafood
A young and modern restaurant situated in a residential area about 2km from the centre, where owner-chef Enrico Pivieri offers a menu that is equally divided between traditional meat-based dishes from Piedmont (some, such as the plin pasta, are very traditional in style while others have a more reinterpreted feel) and more creative fish-based options. The chef gives full rein to his creativity in dishes such as the Mediterranean fish ceviche with avocado, passion fruit gel and sea-urchin mayonnaise.
