An unexpected highlight of our city trip.
We spontaneously arrived shortly after opening without a reservation and were warmly welcomed. Luckily, there were still some tables available. It filled up quickly after we arrived.
Our server was attentive and friendly, anticipating our every need. We ordered a tuna steak and a beef steak, both served without unnecessary frills. They were by far the best versions of these dishes we've had in a long time. The desserts were also absolutely fantastic.
Highly recommended, even as a day trip if you're in the area.

We went for a beer on Thursday afternoon in lovely weather. Despite the beer garden being full, the young waitress was fantastic. Kudos! 😀

Super friendly staff! The food was excellent — definitely try the grilled tuna. They even prepared special dishes for the kids that weren’t on the menu, which we really appreciated. The owner was very friendly and entertaining. A very warm and welcoming place.

A truly delightful restaurant serving Sicilian cuisine, with a refined yet casual atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. Traditional Sicilian dishes are well-executed, rich in flavor, and prepared with quality ingredients.
The restaurant is welcoming, ideal for both a quiet dinner and an evening with friends.
Special praise goes to the owner, who is extremely kind and always smiling, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere.
A place where you eat well and are treated even better. Highly recommended.

Two wonderful evenings with outstanding food. The pesto siciliana and the tuna burger were divine. The restaurant's ambiance was very Italian. The owner and his staff were always attentive and gave us excellent recommendations regarding food and wine. Thank you so much, dear Boia team, we will be back! Your restaurant is now a regular stop on our Merano itineraries.

The restaurant had a wonderful atmosphere.
My order was modified thanks to the chef's advice. He suggested I change my initial order and recommended Sicilian pasta with almond pesto.
I have very rarely eaten such delicious pasta.
A truly delightful evening with personalized service. Fantastic!

It's certainly not a typical South Tyrolean trattoria, but the quality of the food, the friendliness, and the hospitality of Marco and his staff are absolutely worth a visit. This restaurant, which exudes Sicilian atmosphere, proudly displays his ties to his homeland on the walls, and his dishes convey all his passion and love for the flavors of the island's cuisine. Eating an exceptional caponata surrounded by the Alps is a unique experience, as is savoring the seafood dishes, a balance between modernity and a refined exploration of traditional flavors. To finish, a ricotta cannoli that rivals the best Sicilian pastry shops. What more can I say? Head to Boia for an exotic experience in the heart of South Tyrol.
