Awards Candidates 2019

11/10/2025: Nice place, very kind staff, delicious dumplings and tagliolini with venison ragù.

05/10/2025: A gem and truly quaint, simply beautiful!

01/09/2025: quality service, products and location.

31/08/2025: Not exactly cheap, but truly delicious and highly recommended. The service was very friendly, quick, and attentive. We managed to get a table (for two) without a reservation, but we recommend booking in advance.

14/10/2025: Very welcoming, the food is very good and the waitresses are good.

09/10/2025: Everything was great, fine dining. Super delicious food, competent and professional service.

16/10/2025: In a place where we've often found prices quite high, here you pay but you get a lot. The tasting menu (meat) we tried offered excellent quality ingredients, beautifully presented and even better when tasted. Special mention goes to the fruit sorbets, brilliantly presented and remarkable in flavor (they alone make you want to return to the restaurant—which we did). The staff is not only extremely knowledgeable about both the food and the matching wines, but also very friendly and truly makes you feel at ease. Definitely worth a visit!

16/10/2025: Great food, weird vibes… My partner and I wandered in after finding it on the Michelin app, and were able to get a table on a Sunday night as it wasn’t busy. Multiple people greeted us quickly and warmly, but consequently we did feel rushed to order. Though friendly at first, the waitress seemed put out when we ordered only pasta (no appetizers or meats), which left us feeling uncomfortable. This was exacerbated by the nearly empty restaurant (granted, it was on the early side) with no music and dated, stuffy decor. I understand our order may have been unusual for upscale Italian dining. But since we weren’t taking up a table on a busy night and waiters’ wages don’t depend on tips in Italy, I thought it was rude to make us feel as if we were being tolerated for not ordering more. The actual food was really good. The complimentary pumpkin soup was delicious, and both the tench ragout and linguine with scallops were amazing. We ordered an apricot tart for dessert, and were pleased with it and the additional brownies. Just a shame about the service experience.

03/11/2025: I booked the tour and oil tasting through the Frantoi Aperti event, and I was very satisfied! Moreno was able to describe the entire process of oil production with great charisma. It was very interesting to see firsthand the machinery and the steps that go into producing this "green gold" that we (mostly) enjoy on our tables every day. The second part of the oil tasting was very educational, and I really appreciated the pairings offered. A truly pleasant experience.

03/11/2025: Lunch break with colleagues, totally casual, beautiful location, good food, great news. Now feast your eyes...and it's also an olive oil mill!

06/11/2025: I stayed for 4 nights at Hotel Villa Madruzzo and had a wonderful time. An elegant property, surrounded by greenery, with spacious and very clean rooms. The breakfast is generous and excellent. The staff is friendly, always available, and attentive to every detail. The wellness area with an indoor pool is also beautiful. Just a few minutes from the center of Trento, yet in a quiet and relaxing location. Highly recommended for those seeking comfort, relaxation, and a refined atmosphere.

04/11/2025: What an enchanting place! How beautiful, it's become one of our favorite places, a place we'll return to time and time again! We couldn't have chosen a better place for our vacation! And what food! The best in Trentino ❤️👏👏👏

26/08/2025: We arrived at Passo del Tonale on August 18th and ended the 26th. Every evening, we had aperitifs at the El Bait Pub. It helped make our holiday unforgettable. Excellent beer and cocktails. A convivial aperitif, thanks to Manuel and Andrea. Thank you so much, you guys are the best.... See you soon🫶🏻👋🏻🥂

21/08/2025: The perfect place for an aperitif. The platters are delicious and well served. And as Jeremy Clarkson would say, "That's a Good Beer."😎😁

28/10/2025: Excellent home-cooked dishes, a rustic atmosphere, and truly reasonable prices. The menu is generally fixed but includes a bit of everything. The potato tortelli are excellent, the braised meat is delicious, and the ribs are exceptional. We had a great time.

27/10/2025: If I could, I'd give it 10 stars! I used to come here when I worked in these beautiful areas! I returned with family and friends after a few years, and it feels like time has stood still! The owners are incredibly sweet and kind; the lady cooks divinely, and the gentleman is not only sweet and helpful, but incredibly tender! The cuisine isn't superb, but more so: plentiful and of exceptional, superior, unique quality...typical of a mountain refuge! The prices are more than fair, €30 per person including drinks for a menu that never ends. The appetizers are incredible: the meat is fresh and tender, the beef is firm, and the carpaccio is something you'll remember for a lifetime. The first courses are exceptional: the canederli are traditional Trentino dumplings (the cheese ones are a delight!), and the second courses (for those who haven't had enough before) are exquisite; the braised beef in Barolo is so tender it melts in your mouth! The grappas are excellent, also strictly handmade! When we pass by these places again, we'll definitely stop here! Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends; they're not always open during the week. It's family-run! Update: We returned at the end of October 2025 and I can say that the quality is still the same, as is the kindness of the staff and "Mr. Baffo," who remains the star of the place! The price of the full menu has been increased by €5, now costing €35; still, it's a more than fair price for the quantity and quality of the products.

11/09/2025: A truly beautiful agriturismo, with a fantastic restaurant and delicious food. The staff are also very friendly. The mountain road leading up to it is interesting, but once you're there, you won't want to leave. The room was also fantastic!

07/09/2025: Beautiful panoramic location, chances of seeing some animals (alpacas, sheep, oxen), good food, and farm-style service, meaning that, unless you reserve a table for lunch inside, you'll have to find a seat. The food is a bit too gourmet for the setting; one would normally expect more traditional local cuisine and more reasonable prices. Suitable for all tastes, but be aware that you'll spend a little more.
