Six of us found ourselves in Varzi by chance during a Sunday stroll. After several crowded places, we found this one downtown. We were greeted warmly from the start, the staff were super friendly and attentive, and the menu was a bit limited, but the food was good. We ordered two braised ravioli, two carbonaras, and two malfatti. Good food, fast service, and a family atmosphere. The place is small but cozy. We'll definitely be back when we're passing through.

What can I say, a fantastic experience! The staff is super friendly and attentive to their guests, always with a smile, and they even offered us focaccia! The eggplant meatballs were delicious and the dough was excellent. The fried gnocco was light and not at all greasy. Definitely a place to try!

Not just an excellent charcuterie board, but a welcome that resonated with genuineness and heart. During a difficult time in my life, at Easter with my dog, I found warmth and even a hug, because there are people out there who have such compassion. I don't know your name, but you warmed my heart, which needed warmth! Thank you!

A platter of truly delicious and refined cured meats and cheeses, fried gnocco with a very well-chosen blend of flours and not at all greasy💙

We tried "La Compagnia delle Merende" and were truly satisfied!
We tried a sandwich made with pizza dough and salami (Bun sandwich): simply exquisite, truly tasty, and well-made. The eggplant meatballs were also excellent, flavorful and carefully prepared.
You can taste the quality of the ingredients and the passion behind the preparation. This place is definitely worth a visit.
We'll definitely be back!

A small, quaint restaurant in the historic center of Varzi, highly regarded for its quality cured meats and cheeses, well-selected local wines and glasses, and simple dishes like braised ravioli and traditional-style tagliatelle with mushrooms. The atmosphere is informal and welcoming, with outdoor seating and generally friendly staff, though some reviews point to inconsistent quality and portions, and prices that are sometimes high compared to what's on offer—typically €20-30 per person.

Lunch included an appetizer of mixed cheeses accompanied by jams, and two first courses: beetroot gnocchi with Zola cheese fondue and ravioli with braised beef sauce. Everything was excellent, and the service was adequate. The price was more than fair.
