"The main street that leads to the Royal Palace is a succession of restaurants, inns and taverns, all charming on the outside and with menus on display. The inn is chosen at random. Crossing the entrance door the feeling is that of a place in full service with the staff a little tense. A few minutes of waiting to be welcomed allows us to admire the architecture of the place which is beautiful and enhanced by the furnishings, colors and mise en place. The place is bright, conditioned by the chaos of the service lunch, dinner is probably characterized by a decidedly more fascinating atmosphere. The menu offers various tastings at very interesting prices and some à la carte options. The place is full but the service is overall fast. Of our order we appreciated the appetizers and first courses, well made and well presented. Good and NOT banal. The braised cheek that was served to us unfortunately had maturation problems... it tasted like it had gone bad. We bring the problem to attention and they deduct it from the bill with apologies. Good desserts. The place has potential and the food is good at affordable prices. Too bad about the inconvenience of the braised meat, it can happen and they proved professional in finding a solution immediately. I would have liked to go there for dinner to enjoy a more intimate and less touristy atmosphere. Parking: Pedestrian zone!"

"At that time Starting from the premise that we are certainly not fans of fairy tale worlds, elves, elves and fairies, we must admit that the place presents itself in a very particular and certainly maximalist way and for those who are passionate very engaging, to us it seemed a bit oppressive but only because we are not fans of that world. We had lunch today, Sunday, choosing the only formula available, the fixed menu at €25 including appetizers, first course, second course, side dish, dessert and coffee; Which, if at first glance it seemed like an excellent possibility perhaps influenced by the beautiful photos seen here in the reviews once we started lunch we started to regret it. The speed between courses was really slow, leaving us customers with a feeling of being stuck between one tasting and another. The quality of the food seemed rather poor and with bland flavors (a curious factor if we're talking about Piedmontese cuisine , arriving at the first course we were able to taste a really flavorful pasta with meat sauce, the same luck didn't happen to a vegetarian friend of ours who Pasta with vegetables was served almost all'acqua pazza we would dare say made up of a broth of fresh tomatoes and almost boiled aubergines (maybe? . The too long wait between one course and another and the completely lost sense of appetite exactly 2 hours after arriving at the table forced us to skip the last two courses and kindly ask for dessert and coffee. Here too the vegetarian friend was able to taste a nougat cake of which it only had a similar color to nougat, because we were really far away in terms of taste. In conclusion, perhaps exasperated by the environment itself and by the long wait, we left the place. Honestly, we would have preferred an à la carte menu or the same fixed menu at the same price with fewer courses but perhaps better cooked.
