All'Ostarcello Ristorante di Campagna In Pianello val tidone

L'Ostarcello is the country restaurant everyone is trying to discover. Well-prepared cuisine, quality ingredients, and a friendly atmosphere that's hard to find these days. Tasty appetizers, traditional first courses, and quality meats. A lovely way to spend time at the table. In the summer, there's a panoramic terrace.

The route to get there is also beautiful, the location is beautiful, and the menu is good and varied. Recommended.

The restaurant is located in a small village overlooking the Val Tidone valley; the tables on the summer veranda offer a breathtaking view. To reach the restaurant, if you're coming from the north, I recommend not taking the main road, but taking a 15-minute drive through the Pavia hills, passing through Ziano and Seminò. The service is attentive and punctual, and made the time fly by. The dishes we ate were truly excellent! The fresh pasta dishes are simply breathtaking, generously portioned and flavorful. The tagliatella with porcini mushrooms is one of the best I've ever had. And the tagliata we ordered was also truly succulent. Verdict: A true spectacle in every way: food, location, and service. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back! The restaurant is nestled in a small village overlooking the Val Tidone valley; the tables on the summer veranda offer a breathtaking view.

We booked for dinner on August 15th. The place is very charming, and the terrace where you eat is surrounded by greenery. We ordered an appetizer of Piacenza cured meats for two to share, a plate of Pisarei and faśö, a fillet, and grilled lamb chops. Everything was very good, nothing to complain about. The only downside was that we asked for the fillet medium rare; when it arrived the first time, it was practically raw inside. We reported this and it was put back on the grill, but the second time it was cooked even worse. Fortunately, it was grilled and brought to the table, and when we cut it, it continued to cook. Despite this small inconvenience, the dinner was excellent. I recommend the place because it's worth it!

We went for lunch, and the appetizers were varied and generous, including cured meats with fried gnocco, caramelized onions, green beans, Russian salad, and breaded porcini mushrooms. The first course wasn't up to par: the tagliolini with truffle was too buttery, covering the truffle flavor and making it feel heavy. We made up for it with dessert; the sbrisolona, freshly baked that day, was truly delicious.

The view of the valley from the outdoor tables is worth the experience alone, especially when you add the delicious food... highly recommended! The meat is excellent!

Simple and tasty cuisine. Breathtaking views.

Great place, reservations recommended

A typical Piacenza restaurant. Good quality, limited wine list. The pergola overlooking the bay is beautiful.

Everything was great, the 800g rare ribeye steak was excellent. The fresh vegetables were also good, I imagine from their own garden.
