Al Borgo Antico In Moncalieri

07/04/2026: We went to dinner with friends on a Sunday evening. We had to book a week in advance due to the large crowds and somewhat limited seating. In the summer, the large outdoor space will certainly offer a few more seats for diners. It was our first time at "La Trattoria La Pace - il Morettino," where we had pizza, a few pasta dishes, and some fried foods. The quality of the pizza was average, cooked in a modern gas oven. There's a choice of various pizza doughs. The generous pasta dishes and fried foods justify the slightly higher prices compared to other restaurants in the area. The service was courteous and fast, with average wait times given the restaurant's busy schedule. With friends, we enjoyed a fantastic dessert platter featuring every homemade dessert, each one better than the last. At the end of the service, a bottle of their fresh and delicate amaro was offered to the table. A nice touch for the customer that not everyone offers! As for improvement, I'd suggest better extraction of the kitchen hood, as the smell of fried food permeates the dining room and the diners, and unfortunately, the smell lingers on their clothes. More space between the tables would be appreciated, to make diners feel less claustrophobic and to give the waiters more space for easier service. We'll definitely be back, but this time to try the specialties of contemporary Piedmontese cuisine!

05/04/2026: Professional and friendly staff. The food and pizza were very good, and I particularly enjoyed the desserts. There's a well-equipped kids' area both inside and out. Competitive prices. I recommend trying it!
