Da Zio In Nichelino

24/12/2024: The restaurant was just okay overall. I recommend avoiding the meat dishes. If you opt for the "on stone" option, they'll overdo it, serving it with an axe on a hot stone, which completely ruins the experience. If you order a fillet, they'll butterfly it—essentially ruining the flavor—because they don’t seem to know how to cook it properly. Communication can be challenging if you speak English, so be prepared for some difficulty. On the positive side, the wine selection is excellent, and the ambiance is beautiful. However, there are some odd details—like toilets without locking doors—that might be off-putting. That said, the chocolate and coconut dessert is absolutely amazing, and worth a visit just for that. Still, the overall experience leaves something to be desired.

17/12/2024: Nice and satisfying place, between the old Piedmontese trattoria and the refined. Good food even if the fillet on soapstone (their flagship) in my opinion is more spectacular than anything else. In fact, cooking like this does not do justice to the cut which would otherwise be of excellent quality. The meat is not roasted but rather (boiled) due to the low temperature reached by the stone. Medium/high prices.
