08/11/2025: I'll start by saying I come here quite often for both breakfast and dinner.
And 3⭐️ is for breakfast! The line is endless, and so far no problem. It's known and we wait. Then she arrives. She skips everyone and says, "We sat over there and I'd like..." and lists the things to order. No one said, "Ma'am, first you order and pay (like everyone else does), then you sit!" That's because that way they can go around the tables and the poor souls who order have to sit down! But it doesn't end there! The two of them, the Misses, arrive, sit down, obviously without ordering, go to the cashier, see the line, and stop a waitress to place their order. She nicely brings them what they'd asked for. Double standards, in short. Personally, I think the place is good, the staff is kind, but this needs fixing. It's simply a matter of honesty, of people who do things well and respect others!
30/10/2025: I have some experience with the restaurants run by the Alajmo brothers today, and their father before, and what always makes the difference in places like this is the staff and the customer service, as well as, of course, the quality of the food.
What I've always liked about their cuisine is that it's always simple, yet never banal or predictable.
The onion soup with white truffle and the pumpkin risotto with Castelmagno cheese were excellent.
The sore point this time was the service, alas. For a dinner of two glasses of Chianti, an appetizer, and two main courses, the bill came to €195.
At first, it seemed strange, but since I was with my partner, I didn't want to discuss the bill in front of her.
Two days later, thinking about it, it seemed truly outrageous, and indeed, instead of two glasses of Chianti for €9 each, I found a bottle on my receipt for €98.
I called, and they actually confirmed there had been a mistake on their part, and they apologized and said they'd wire me the difference.
I would have expected a breakfast invitation as an apology instead of a simple email, but that's fine. The important thing is to always check, even in places like this.
