Marchesi Incisa Winery Lodge

A young, dynamic couple of professionals has revitalized this historic restaurant in the heart of town, facing the lively main square and beloved by neighborhood regulars. The menu celebrates Piedmontese tradition – think carne battuta, plin, braised Fassona beef, and bonet – elevated with the chef’s creative touches, such as onion stuffed with sausage and Castelmagno cream – a dish that alone is worth the visit! The hospitality is spontaneous and kind. Reservations? Highly recommended: the venue’s reputation is once again at its peak.

At this family restaurant, the daughter is now at the helm in the kitchen, having taken over from her grandmother a few years ago, while her parents oversee the dining room where the rather old-fashioned 1960s decor is brightened by their attentive service. The menu continues to focus on traditional Piedmontese dishes (especially from Monferrato) cooked in a simple, almost homely style, including specialities such as veal with a tuna sauce (usually known as vitello tonnato), agnolotti monferrini (a type of ravioli), tajarin with porcini mushrooms, finanziera stew, and torroncino parfait. The w

The tradition of the Monferrato region has been told for generations through simple local cuisine. Indeed, there is an inviting list on the menu in which none of the great classics are missing: peppers with bagna cauda, vitello tonnato, tagliolini with Cervere leek sauce, stewed tripe, braised veal stew with Barbera d'Asti, the sweet "mattone monferrino" and so on. Straightforward flavours to pair easily with an endless wine list for true fans of Langhe, Asti, all of Italy and France. All "seasoned" with proper customer care and pleasant outdoor service for the warm weather. Basically, the res

Nestled amid the picturesque hills of the Monferrato region, this restaurant overseen by multi-Michelin-starred Enrico Bartolini sees Gabriele Boffa at the helm in the kitchen, a chef who is young in years but already a real connoisseur of Piedmontese cuisine. With experience in some of the world’s best restaurants behind him, Boffa has accumulated expert knowledge and remarkable technical skills. His cuisine ranges from classic regional dishes interpreted in their purest form – such as his extraordinary agnolotti del plin – to more creative options, which demonstrate a connection with the reg

Situated in the hills outside Asti, this modern inn with guestrooms is nestled in around 18 hectares of woodland and meadows. The interior decor here is contemporary and minimalist, while the cuisine is overseen by the famous three-Michelin-star chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo, with resident chef Gianluca Renzi, who has already earned his spurs at other top-quality restaurants, at the helm in the kitchen. Originally from Rome (his focaccia is excellent!) and having trained professionally in various locations, Renzi creates cuisine that combines personal imaginative touches with regional influence

Perched in a panoramic setting amid extraordinary rolling hills, this restaurant is housed in a seventeenth-century former monastery transformed into the refined Relais San Maurizio, one of the region’s most exclusive venues. Andrea Alciati and Monica Magnini preserve and reimagine the legacy of Guido and Lidia Alciati, legendary figures in Piedmontese gastronomy. In the kitchen, Cuneo-born chef Fabio Sgrò carries on the family tradition with respect and passion, interpreting it through a modern lens: his revisited menu also features freshwater fish and a selection of off-menu specials that en

Since 1869, five generations have reinterpreted Piedmontese tradition through a modern lens. In an elegant, intimate setting, the restaurant serves dishes that fuse history and innovation – don’t miss the potato-and-hazelnut gnocchi with robiola cream. In the warmer months, reserve a table on the panoramic terrace: the view of the town hall and the hills of Castelnuovo Belbo is pure poetry.
