Al Gatto Nero In Torino

Unique experience. Local and tasteful food. Iconic interior. Untouched. Passionate staff sharing the story of the place. Must go!

My husband and I are from the US and lived in Turin for one year. This is easily our favorite restaurant from our whole year abroad (including the many other European countries we visited). Everything is good on the menu and the wine list is amazing. The atmosphere is wonderful. Dim light with local + family vibes. We never had a problem speaking English (our Italian is little to none). I would suggest the tasting menu if you have the time because you get to try many local dishes. They will also suggest local wines to pair if you ask. Whatever you do come hungry!

Experience to be replicated! Congratulations for the anthological wine list. Excellent cuisine. Thank you

A legendary restaurant in Turin that used to have Michelin stars and chose to stay true and principled instead of serving entertaining fancy modernity. The interior is from the 70s/80s and the guest seem to be mostly local and in the know. The food is supreme and principled, the perfect execution and ingredients are far more important than decoration. The perfect anchovies with sublime fresh herbs, the squid with artichokes, the most amazing cod with potatoes you will ever have, the home made pastas with impeccably elegant ragu and game sauces and the most amazing tripe with beans I’ve ever had. Every dish is timeless and even a 5% error can make it bland and useless. Never happens here. The wine list is great and doesn’t require extra descriptions. Come here for perfectly executed Italian and you will actually both enjoy the food and learn what benchmark taste is. Excellent!

Magnificent discovery with a quality menu and attentive service A big thank you for this beautiful moment

I couldn’t be happier with my experience! The place was fantastic, the service impeccable, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The staff was incredibly friendly, and I have to give a special shoutout to Aziz, the cook—what an amazing person! His passion and talent truly stood out, making the visit unforgettable. Highly recommend this place!
