28/02/2025: I have had the pleasure in the past of dining at the L'Acino restaurant during a business dinner and I can say that it was a more than positive experience. Located in the heart of Turin, this restaurant offers an elegant yet relaxed environment, perfect for a professional meeting but also for enjoying a good dinner.
The menu, seasonal and very refined, is a perfect balance between Piedmontese tradition and a touch of innovation. Among the dishes that really impressed me, the meat ravioli with roast sauce was a real pleasure for the palate, as was the Barolo braised meat, which won over all the guests with its rich and enveloping flavour. Another delight was the plin, which, despite its simplicity, showed all the goodness of typical Piedmontese dishes.
The service was impeccable, with attentive and trained staff who were able to suggest the best wine pairings and made the atmosphere even more pleasant. The wine list, which offers a selection of local labels, was excellent company throughout the dinner.
I recommend it to anyone looking for quality Turin cuisine in a welcoming and refined environment.

Could it be easy to open a place with a little money, give it a style, a guideline and make a good impression? Probably yes. What is much more difficult to replicate is what happens at L'Acino with the couple in charge, probably the owners, I don't know if it's wife and husband, who pamper you, advise you, bring you the dishes and bring them back, print the glass and the paper, leaving behind with a few wines but surprisingly there's fatty helium in the Nebbiolo and so that's fine.. In short, everything is fine if you consider the possibility of drinking all the wines of Mascarello Bartolo in this such a convivial atmosphere that is certainly an added value for this very small corner of Turin where you went with your wife to try to delight her for the umpteenth time🔥🔥
