Founded in 1757, this restaurant has never ceased to reach the top: beauty of the setting, excellence and refinement of the dishes...
This restaurant, founded in 1757, is one of the most beautiful and prestigious in Italy. A first room, the Sala Risorgimento, has kept its red velvet benches, its beautiful wainscotting and mirrors and its chandelier. In the intimacy of the neighbouring room, Pistoletto, contemporary art plays the leading role. The Evento painting, in which several characters seem to be observing the happy people at the table, covers the walls entirely. The specialities, such as agnolotti (small meat ravioli) and finanziera (poultry offal), are perfectly refined.

We went for lunch to this iconic place as I was born in Turin and wanted to show my city to my partner.
We arrived in this empty old fashioned place and asked to be sitted. They took a while to take care of us, and instead of bringing us to the table they asked if we checked the menu before, as we probably seemed like not from here. We reassured the woman that we did, and implied we were absolutely fine with the overpriced menu (I am from Monaco and we live in London, we are sadly used to overpriced food haha) , but she then imposed us that we HAD to take AT LEAST TWO SALY DISHES to be able to sit. I mean, this was lunchtime, can I be autorizhed to eat what I want as long as I pay? If I want to sit and have 3 “sugary” dishes, what is the problem? What if I just want one?
If they want to place a “bareer” to client coming in 3 and sharing a salad, I get that, but this is not the way. This is the first time that I find a place worldwide that imposes that “you HAVE to order two SALTY dishes”, what on earth does that mean? I have never seen this, and I am used to go to places with minimum spendings or menus, but this was a first. If they want to find a way to turn off young international people to
Get there, I think they managed, but I cant help but sharing how restricted and unwelcome we felt: I decied to leave because choosing what I want to eat in a restaurant feels like the bear-minimum right I want to keep: I am keen to spend money to a restaurant , but at least I want to be the one deciding how :-) guys, spend your money elsewhere, where you are at least you are the boss life is too short to get snob attitudes under the excuse of an historical name.
