A regular stop when we go to Venosa, a very beautiful town with lots to see, and strolling through the center is relaxing. The restaurant is very well decorated for my taste, the ingredients are top-quality, the chef puts them together very well, the wine cellar is well-stocked, and the price is average. I recommend it.

Excellent restaurant in Venosa. Four of us came here after visiting the town of Forenza (all the nearby restaurants/farmhouses were already booked), even without a reservation. We had a peaceful, relaxing, and delicious experience. We were well-fed with an appetizer of local cured meats and cheeses and a first course each. I've attached a photo of mine: maltagliati with genuine octopus ragù 😋
Recommended for those in the area looking for somewhere to eat.

Our experience at the "Al Baliaggio" restaurant in Venosa was a positive one. Located in the heart of the Basilicata town center, it offers a wide range of typical local products.
Regarding the food, we thoroughly enjoyed the house appetizer of vegetables and fried meat, along with our first course: paccheri with bacon. We also enjoyed the main courses, such as the pork fillet and the fried fish, which could certainly be improved. The ambiance is elegant and simple, dominated by neutral colors like white. The service is attentive and managed by a competent worker like Giuseppe, but the preparation times for the dishes could definitely be improved by involving other professional staff to manage the service. This is in line with the quality, which meets the Michelin rating.

A lovely, welcoming, quiet, and elegant place, serving refined yet traditional cuisine (the ciambotta with poached egg in an egg-shaped ceramic dish—also handcrafted in Venosa—is truly original). The prices are also absolutely fair; we opted for the tasting menu (recommended!) and paid only the amount for the menu. Stop by if you're passing through Venosa, or, as Orazio (who was born there) would say, "carpe diem."

Posso solo dire WOW! Tutto perfetto! Il menù davvero ottimo con proposte ricercate unite agli ingredienti tipici del territorio. Raffinata ed elegante location nel centro storico unita ad un servizio che definire perfetto è poco! Alessandro è stato non solo attento e preciso ma anche molto cordiale e preparato sulla storia della città e su consigli utili per la visita.
A chi va passa da Venosa consiglio di provarlo ad ogni costo! Ottimo rapporto prezzo visto il livello del tutto.
