30/11/2025: Truly amazing restaurant. Food was outstanding along with the service. Highly recommend attending this beautiful experience when in Sorrento

18/11/2025: Spectacular service and food. So many connected stories to the meal. There was thought and joy put into the meal. This is what you expect with a Michelin star. I think it deserves another. We ate at a Michelin 2-star the same week, and we much preferred Terrazza and we hope to return. Also, between all of the additional tastes between courses, we must have eaten 15 courses. Insane. Wonderful!

05/07/2026: There are so many English reviews here, so I wanted to add my 2 cents in Chinese. In my opinion, this is the best in the world!! First of all: 1. The wine pairings are unbeatable! Sweet wine served with Château d'Yquem?! Red wine served with a 1985 Barolo—wow, so generous! I also had a very pleasant chat with Somme. The three white wines were all unique—one served in a stainless steel container, another in skin contact—each with its own ingenuity. 2. I was blown away by the squid made in a centrifuge! Pea and olive oli paired with baby squid was absolutely amazing. Each course had a different bread to accompany it!! 3. The service was top-notch. They had a water menu (although I only recognized Fiji and Pana, and there was also €180 mineral water, which I didn't try 🙂). 4. They changed the tablecloth after each course! This is so important for someone like me who tends to spill food!! 5. The c/mocktail menu is comprehensive, and the half-bottle (375ml) wine list offers a wide selection. While the by-the-glass option is a bit pricey (1 glass - Dom 90 Euros), the pairings are incredibly generous. 6. And lastly, there's the customizable ice cream!! I chose dark chocolate + coconut + cocoa. It was so delicious! By the second course, I was already debating whether CTBF or this place was better. I felt they were about equal, but I think this is the best restaurant in the world outside of New York!! All the Michelin-starred restaurants in Japan, Paris, and London pale in comparison. Highly recommended!

28/06/2026: Fantastic 3-star restaurant just outside the center of Rome. Service and food quality were excellent. Professional from start to finish. Heinz Beck himself was a wonderful host. Overall very good, but not outstanding. Martino & Friends / Germany

11/05/2026: Diverse cuisine, sophisticated and refined flavors, and traditional, quality products! Highly recommended.

09/05/2026: There are magical places that create moments that will forever remain in your memory. Laite is certainly one of those places. An extraordinary dinner in a warm, refined setting with a relaxing atmosphere that combines a passion for food with the desire to lose yourself in a moment where you feel at ease with the space around you. My wife and I relied on the expert advice of the always attentive staff and Elena. The dishes were excellent, with the surprise of a vegan option for me, as was the recommended wine pairing. The work of those who transform their passion into art shines through, those who infuse all their love and creativity into what you find yourself savoring, which blends into an explosion of delight for the palate and the eyes. Food that creates emotion. Thanks to Fabrizia, thanks to the ever-watchful eye of Elena and the staff. We will definitely be back.

18/07/2026: Always an incredible experience

08/07/2026: An experience with every bite, you have to try it to understand. THANK YOU for giving us a truly first-class lunch.

08/06/2026: A restaurant worth recommending. The steak was just right. My son devoured the spaghetti with meatballs until his ears quivered. ;) The music has a unique atmosphere.

06/06/2026: Great atmosphere, very friendly service and delicious food

03/05/2026: At Agli Amici, we found a sincere and attentive welcome: even our daughter, still very young, was a truly welcome presence. The atmosphere is elegant but never stuffy, putting you at ease without losing its identity. The tasting menu conveys a clear and coherent idea: a dialogue between land and sea, rooted in the local area but never predictable. Each dish adds a new dimension, with a growing progression of flavor and complexity, culminating in a perfectly balanced sweet finish. A thoughtful, distinctive cuisine that surprises without being forced. Friendly, welcoming, and brilliant hosts.

12/04/2026: We visited this truly remarkable restaurant in Friuli on Thursday: fantastic, very creative food, charming service (Italian, German, or English), and a modern, very appealing atmosphere. We were delighted! 😄

13/07/2026: We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The restaurant, with just a few tables, is intimate and surrounded by lovely greenery. We tried a seven-course fish and vegetable menu tailored to our needs. As with all tasting menus, there were some dishes that I particularly enjoyed, such as the trio of char, the cod main course, and the gnocchi. Others, such as the shrimp (in my opinion, the sauce was too sweet), were a little less so. The pre-dessert and the pastry were excellent; the ingredients, however, were of excellent quality. The service was discreet and attentive, with excellent timing between courses. There's a wide selection of Italian and international wines, and there's even a menu dedicated solely to water. We might have liked to meet the chef at the end of the meal for a quick hello; maybe next time. Prices were good for the quality and type of restaurant. Recommended!

30/06/2026: A truly special experience. We had chosen the eight-course tasting menu, but unfortunately, due to a sudden illness that had nothing to do with the restaurant, I was only able to enjoy the first three. And it was a real shame, because each one was better than the last. Refined but never overdone cuisine, excellent ingredients, successful pairings, and a top-notch selection of waters and wines. When the staff noticed I wasn't feeling well, they were kind enough to bring me a herbal tea, a simple but much appreciated gesture. The location is simply wonderful: nestled in the woods, with a spectacular view that makes the dinner even more evocative. I regret not being able to complete the tasting menu, but that's also the reason I will definitely return. From what I had the opportunity to taste, I can say I ate very, very well. A restaurant I recommend without a doubt.

29/07/2026: Sorry, I wasn't convinced. It's certainly an upscale, very good restaurant, but in my opinion, the quality of the food doesn't live up to the number of stars. None of the individual dishes were particularly impressive; everything was just so-so. The pasta course was far too large. In the end, I wasn't pleasantly full, but rather stuffed. I would have preferred something a bit more unusual, perhaps even a little less of it.

19/04/2026: A unique gastronomic experience in a comfortable environment with staff who, with professionalism and friendliness, create a truly pleasant atmosphere.

18/04/2026: Imagine an evening at dinner... La Credenza: an experience that transcends dinner. Crossing the threshold of La Credenza, in San Maurizio Canavese, isn't simply entering a restaurant. It means accepting an invitation to a journey. A journey where the senses are the protagonists, the raw materials are the muse, and technique is the creator of pure emotion. The atmosphere is a perfect prelude: a sober, almost whispered elegance, where soft lighting and minimal design create a cocoon of intimacy and anticipation. Giovanni Grasso's welcome, orchestrated with the mastery of a consummate host, is the first, impeccable step in a dance that will last all evening. You are a guest, not a customer. And this is a substantial difference. We chose the tasting menu, a journey that proved to be a crescendoing symphony. Here, the chef's hand doesn't just cook; it composes. Each dish is a canvas, a story that speaks of the Piedmont region in a universal language, made of an almost sacred respect for the ingredient and flashes of genius that project it into the future. How could we forget their risotto, which wasn't simply a risotto but the memory of a walk in a humid forest, with a creaminess that envelops the palate and a crunchy counterpoint that awakens the senses with every bite. Or the veal pizzaiola, a masterpiece of meticulous cooking, its crispy skin concealing tender and juicy meat, accompanied by a deep and complex sauce that brings out every nuance. Every course is a revelation. Balance is the key: between sweet and savory, between soft and crunchy, between comforting tradition and surprising audacity. Nothing is left to chance, yet everything appears miraculously spontaneous, natural. An honorable mention goes to the wine pairing, a parallel narrative that didn't merely accompany the dishes, but elevated them, engaging with them, sometimes through assonance, sometimes through bold contrast. The sommelier's expertise and passion transformed every glass into a discovery. The dining room service is a silent and perfect choreography. An attentive staff, present but never intrusive, capable of anticipating every desire with a discreet smile and a professionalism bordering on perfection. They move with a grace that helps make the entire experience seamless and magical. Dessert wasn't the end of the meal, but the final, dazzling brushstroke on a work of art. A play of temperatures, textures, and flavors that cleansed the palate and left a mark of pure joy. Leaving La Credenza is like waking up from a beautiful dream. You don't go to La Credenza simply to eat; you go to experience an emotion, to collect a precious memory. It's an experience that stays with you, a point of reference for anyone who believes that great cuisine is not just nourishment for the body, but above all for the spirit. Absolutely unmissable (because spectacular doesn't do it justice). Sergio & Erika 17/4/2026

17/05/2026: A simply incredible experience, a gastronomic journey meticulously curated down to the smallest detail, with dishes surprising in their creativity, balance, and quality of ingredients, with a keen eye for both flavor and artistry. The menu is a thrilling journey from start to finish (special mention for the saffron and licorice risotto, truly on another level). The location is elegant, modern, and at the same time relaxing: an environment where time truly seems to stand still, perfect for enjoying every moment without rushing. The service was impeccable, attentive, professional, and never intrusive. One of the most beautiful culinary experiences I've ever had. Congratulations!

20/04/2026: A top-notch experience that, for enthusiasts like me, is a must! There's not much to review, just the value of a three-Michelin-starred restaurant that provided us with a flawless evening. My compliments are for everything.

02/07/2026: One of the few truly Michelin-starred restaurants Congratulations!

07/06/2026: An experience that goes beyond dinner. Returning to Antica Osteria da Cera was much more than sitting in a two-Michelin-star restaurant for me: it was returning to a place where cuisine, memory, sea, and vision meet with a rare ease. I ate divinely. Each dish spoke of a cuisine crafted with absolute precision, yet never cold: supreme technique, extraordinary ingredients, elegance, depth, and a marine sensibility that only comes from those who truly know fish, respect it, and know how to transform it without betraying it. From pasta to fish, from shellfish to bread, from the dining room details to the most essential small steps, everything communicates one thing: here, we don't seek effect, we seek the truth of flavor. For me, it was also a special evening on a personal level: I chanced upon a loved one whom I hadn't seen in 10 years, and I had the pleasure of reuniting with Chef Lionello Cera, with whom I had the honor of collaborating in the past. Rediscovering that human, as well as professional, quality made the experience even more intense. Antica Osteria da Cera is one of those places where you understand that great Italian dining isn't just about cooking: it's about family, territory, discipline, identity, and continuity. A table of the highest caliber. A home of flavor. An experience that lasts.

07/05/2026: We tried everything on the à la carte menu, and I only liked one dish and one dessert.
