Caffè Vergnano 1882 In Cesana torinese

Fantastic staff, very kind and polite, but the best remains the plate carrier Pietro.

Very good pizza, friendly and welcoming staff. They can customize your pizza. The location is beautiful with a stunning terrace.

Food okay, service needs work Food: I ordered the venison polenta, not the worst I've ever had, but not the best either: the meat could have been cooked a little longer, and it would have been better served in a ceramic pan rather than a metal one, which, given the near-freezing temperatures, contributed to the dish cooling down very quickly. Despite all this, the polenta with the meat sauce was good. Service: This is the sore point of the review. We arrived at 12, with the obligation to eat early. Assuming it might be early, we made sure to ask if we could have lunch. When they said yes, we joined the queue and within a few minutes we had ordered and received our drinks. The food arrived 30-40 minutes late, despite the restaurant being relatively empty (far from peak-hour crowds). Furthermore, one of our guests didn't receive her lunch, forcing us to go and ask for directions, only to receive the sandwich an hour after ordering. Three stars, and no less, for the staff, who were always friendly and helpful. The service was unpredictable given the setting; excellent work! Ambience: classic "slopeside" restaurant. It's not "spartan" like the high-altitude huts, nor is it renowned like a restaurant in the valley. Folding chairs and benches are available outside.

The new management is truly fantastic. Excellent food and welcoming, helpful staff. Highly recommended!
