Il Grecale In Novello

My partner and I went there for lunch yesterday. It was a fantastic place with a spectacular view. The host was friendly and very knowledgeable, and the dishes were sublime! Highly recommended, especially for its location, nestled in the beautiful Langhe hills.

Fantastic place, spectacular seafood, and Diego, the host, is truly top-notch. We enjoyed the four-course lunch menu, which was very high quality at a great price. We'll definitely be back!

Lovely place. Extreme cleanliness. Food and kindness 10 out of 10.

I highly recommend both rooms and the restaurant.

Spectacular tasting experience!

The location is certainly one of the most beautiful in the Langhe, with great care taken in selecting the raw materials and the cuisine to match.

Dinner for two on Saturday night

This review is just about the restaurant. Went for dinner and ordered the 6 course tasting menu. We debated ordering a la carte as the menu looked great, but ultimately decided on the set menu to allow the chef to choose his best dishes of the evening. My partner asked if possible to include pasta with truffle as it was still on his list to try. Waiter said he couldn’t promise anything but certainly could bring something with truffle. The appetizers came and were all rather varied and delicious. The mains unfortunately fell flat—mainly they were all heavy dishes that got paired right in a row. The final appetizer was rabbit; then we got rigatoni with meat ragu; followed by smoky bbq braised beef; followed by chocolate cake and ice cream. None of this included truffle, and unfortunately from reading the menu we didn’t particularly feel like the courses starting from mains onward were all that creative or interesting. We expected a little better considering the price point and the rest of the menu. All of that said, the view is fabulous, and we both enjoyed some fantastic wines, one prepared from their vineyard, and they served vegetables grown in their garden. We would come back to try a la carte in the future.

Beautiful location, well-prepared and refined food. Excessive markup on wines and above all... (I noticed... No receipt issued! 😡😡😡)

I can't give a judgement on the rooms because I haven't used them, but otherwise everything was excellent.
