Al vecchio Rio In Alessandria

Typical Piedmontese restaurant with very basic decor. Fair prices. Fast and attentive staff. Recommended Bagna cauda.

Found it by chance, what a treat! Honest service and food. No frills, excellent food. Good bulk wine. We'll be back.

I eat there four times a week, and it's always a sure thing. At lunchtime for work and in the evening for pleasure. Soups and Bagna Cauda from a top-notch restaurant.

It was a pleasure to rediscover a Piedmontese culinary tradition like bagna cauda

Every evening has a different menu, quality cuisine, but above all, humane. Top-notch Piedmontese cuisine and more.

Food a little too spicy/salty for my taste

Excellent, yet unpredictable, typical Piedmontese dishes—all worth trying. Highly recommended!

Excellent trattoria At lunch, a fixed menu at a low price At dinner, much more choice and a price that's reasonable for what you get

My first time at this restaurant. Excellent dinner with local and authentic dishes. Memories of dishes we hadn't tasted in years, today, revisited with the same goodness and tradition. We split each dish in half to enjoy more, finishing each dish with a healthy mop of bread. The house wine by the glass was also good. The standout dish was definitely the Piedmontese snails (delicious), the fresh tartare, seasoned just right—it was a shame to eat the last bite, I would have gladly had more. The fried frogs, a treat I hadn't had in decades. They were delicious, the only small flaw being a bit too much bread in the breading, but they were still tasty and fun to eat. To finish the meal, we had a warm tomino cheese with honey and chestnuts. A great compromise for dessert, which we passed on due to lack of room. The place is very modern, cute, and clean (service included), which is not a given in a trattoria. In short, we can only say thank you to everyone and, for sure, we'll see you soon. Keep it up, you're the best 🤗🥂 The entire staff was so welcoming, we had a great time and felt at ease... it was like we were regulars. It's definitely become our favorite place for future dinners. Thank you all 🤗👍🐸🐌🐮🍾

A simple, slightly dated restaurant where you can feel at home.
