12/10/2025: I had the pleasure of dining at La Tavernetta and was truly satisfied.
I ordered the tagliolini with porcini mushrooms, which were simply delicious, and I finished the meal with a slice of delicious chocolate cake, a perfect finale. It's a style of cuisine that focuses on authenticity and tradition. For those who seek haute cuisine and criticize every detail, I say that dining in Osiglia is an experience in itself: it's about enjoying the moment, the setting, and the authentic flavors, not about seeking out a Michelin-starred chef.
Special praise goes to the staff: everyone is kind, friendly, and always smiling. You can clearly sense that they do their job with passion, and this makes the service and the entire experience even more enjoyable.
The location is another strong point: the restaurant is beautiful, perfectly complementing the mountain setting of Osiglia and offering a rustic and welcoming atmosphere.
One detail I really appreciated was the many historical objects on display throughout the restaurant, such as old radios and hanging ladles. These elements add character and tell a story. I'd love to know more, perhaps next time, about when and why they were used (though the reason for the ladles is clear! 😉).
A highly recommended experience for anyone seeking a pleasant, authentic meal, served with great care and passion in a charming setting.
24/08/2025: A real discovery!!!
I always pass through Osiglia on my way to or from Liguria, but my dear friend Steü's happy idea to stop for lunch at Tavernetta was truly a pleasant surprise. Hospitality, quality, and a wonderful homey atmosphere... simple, fresh, and well-cooked ingredients. The trout, both grilled and meunière-style, are simply delicious; I had a tender and flavorful tagliata, and the pizzas are numerous and high-quality. Finally, a very special joy: they served me a perfect bonet. A real bonet, not a chocolate pudding like many do, believing they're serving the classic Piedmontese dessert. This was absolutely perfect!!! And I say this with good reason, as I'm an ambitious and meticulous devotee. Well done!!! Truly a place to return to often.
