Albachiara In Villongo

09/02/2026: This is the first time I've given a review 5 stars because I think there's always room for improvement, but in this case I don't feel like giving less; everything was perfect. I arrived at 8:00 PM on a Saturday evening in early February while I was touring the valley with my camper. The place was packed, as is usual for Saturday nights at bars. I was told I'd have to wait at least 20 people to be seated, but after less than 10 minutes I was shown to a lovely table with wooden benches all to myself! I'd arrived craving pizza, but once I opened the menu and saw the dishes on the other tables, I couldn't resist ordering something typically wintery. So I started with a platter of "local salami," lard, and a nest of polenta with mushrooms. Once it arrived, I was worried I wouldn't be able to finish everything I'd ordered (it was easily worth 2x). The salami was very good, and the lard melted in my mouth! The pizza boasts a very light dough, perfect cooking, and quality ingredients (the olives were real! Taggiasca type, not the plastic ones in tin cans). I didn't leave a single crumb on my plate, both because I don't like food to go to waste and because the quality of the food was so good that nothing was left behind. So much so that I rolled back to the camper down the hill, so full and satisfied! This satisfaction was further enhanced by the truly generous bill and the excellent and very friendly service provided by an army of "mamme" (and one girl) who liven up the dining room. 6 stars if they had also served local craft beers :)
