La Braglia In Guiglia

29/03/2026: The food was decent enough, but a bit pricey for what was offered.

26/03/2026: I recently dined here during my stay and had a somewhat mixed experience. On the positive side, the restaurant clearly deserves recognition for its food. The dishes were impressively executed and arrived quickly after ordering. I tried the “Tonnata” tongue and the green pappardelle with duck ragù—both were outstanding and truly memorable. The wine list is also extensive, although I didn’t take advantage of it as I was quite exhausted from traveling. I came down from my hotel room for a quiet dinner alone shortly after arriving at the hotel, hoping for a relaxed and efficient dinner before an early morning the next day. Unfortunately, the service did not match the quality of the cuisine. While the staff were polite, I felt somewhat unwelcome. Senior staff seemed to avoid direct interaction and delegated service to junior team members. Throughout the meal, I poured my own water from the bottle I had ordered, and no one checked in. What stood out most was that senior staff only approached my table to clear salt, pepper, and vinegar immediately after I finished eating—without a word and before I had even asked for the bill. After settling the bill, I quietly left the restaurant on my own. I also noticed a similar dynamic with another solo diner at a nearby table, which made me feel that my experience was not an isolated one. Overall, the food is exceptional and reasonably priced for its level, but the service experience falls short of expectations—especially compared to other Michelin-recognized restaurants I’ve visited. With more attentive and welcoming service, this could easily be a top-tier dining experience.
