Il Cardo E l'Ortica In Villanova mondovì

First time at this very comfortable restaurant. Intrigued by the menu, we ordered the tasting menu and a few dishes à la carte. It was a truly positive experience. Each course offered a new flavor. The dishes were carefully crafted, and you'd eat them with your eyes first. A vast selection of wines. We tried the kefir drink, which was delicious. The waiter, Paolo, was extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and very kind. We'll definitely be back. A 10 out of 10.

Excellent tasting menu (which varies seasonally). Dishes are balanced in flavor and creativity. The staff is friendly and attentive to customer requests. Excellent wine cellar. Fantastic desserts. Well done! Highly recommended for vegans and anyone looking for a high-quality plant-based dining experience.

We had lunch there, choosing the tasting menu. The dishes were excellent, both in terms of preparation and product quality. We will definitely return.

We discovered Cardo e l'Otica thanks to a friend who often recommended it—what can I say? Always a sure thing!! Whether it's the weekly menu (constantly evolving with seasonal products and consistently delicious dishes) or the themed evenings (fritto misto, sandwiches, burgers, pizza...), you can be sure you'll be pampered and eat wonderfully! Now, on special occasions, it's the first place we think of; we've always had a great time! Special service, truly a treat, complementing a plant-based cuisine that even omnivores will love. Thank you guys for the wonderful evenings you gave us!

A very nice and unique place near Morozzo... excellent food... service and friendliness... everything was truly excellent.

A very pleasant experience, tried out of curiosity. Very unusual but excellent food, very welcoming and well-kept place. Very friendly staff. Very quick service.

I discovered this place thanks to a friend: I have to say it was a very pleasant surprise. A welcoming place that makes you feel at home. A great selection of wines. The tasting menu is recommended, although we ordered individual dishes. The agnolotti were good, although the pasta was a bit tough (perhaps because I'm not used to eggless pasta). The discovery was the homemade tempeh. I've never particularly liked it, but I'd heard it was good here. And I must say, I found it delicious (of course, the frying trick helps). I was disappointed not to try the desserts, but I was full. The wine (I don't remember what we ordered) was also very good. It was also nice to chat with the staff at the counter (the owners, perhaps). I'll definitely be back! I often see that they're open by reservation, so if in doubt, call to avoid wasted trips. 2 place settings €4, water €2, bottle of red wine €18, 2 first courses €28 + 2 second courses €15 + 2 coffees €2 = TOTAL €84 Absolutely in line with other restaurants, and more than fair for the experience offered.

We can't count the number of times we've come here, alone or with friends. It's a place where you can eat excellently whatever you choose from the menu, and you're served well with courtesy, kindness, and a friendly atmosphere. Thanks to Chef Nadia and all the staff.
