La Spada Reale In Torino

This is a classic restaurant with a 1970s-1980s feel in a casual setting with a touch of elegance. There's also an outdoor seating area, and we're right off Piazza Vittorio. The restaurant offers three tasting menus (fish €50; Piedmontese €32; and Sicilian €32), while the menu features mostly Sicilian dishes (primarily seafood), but also focaccias, gourmet pizzas, some seasonal dishes offered off-menu, and a fine wine list. We shared a mixed swordfish appetizer (€20), featuring samples of cooked, raw, fried, and au gratin fish (mussels au gratin, smoked salmon and swordfish, poached baby octopus, tuna meatball, etc.); 2 main courses (€38): an excellent mixed fried fish and a delicious swordfish roll (one of the best dishes on the menu); 1 side dish (€10): a generous and varied portion of grilled vegetables; 1 dessert (€5): a lemon sorbet. To accompany the dinner, water and ½ liter of house white wine (a Chardonnay that I enjoyed less than usual; Inzolia was unavailable) brought the bill to €85: 1 appetizer, 2 main courses, 1 side dish, 1 dessert, water, ½ liter of house white Chardonnay, and complimentary Zibibbo wine. The service is excellent, attentive, and cheerful, as is the kind owner, and there's a homely atmosphere and the feel of a fine old-fashioned restaurant... Absolutely recommended! P.S.: Although the menu features Piedmontese dishes and pizza, I recommend it primarily for those who appreciate Sicilian cuisine (both seafood and meat).

A good restaurant behind Piazza Vittorio. It was my first time there. The porcini and shrimp tagliatelle were good, but the fried porcini mushrooms were well-cooked, but some of the mushroom slices were a bit stringy. I can't say if it was due to the oil being too hot or the over-frying, perhaps on some thinner slices, but I think that shouldn't normally happen. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. Nothing to complain about...

This restaurant deserves five stars from start to finish: located in the heart of Piazza Vittorio, it stands out right away for the kindness of the service, which is immediately available for any eventuality (a small but not unimportant detail, given that it's summer in Turin: as soon as we arrived, they offered us Autan mosquito repellent, just to demonstrate the level of attention and care). Following their recommendations, we ordered the fish dishes: a shared swordfish appetizer, which contained a mix of raw, cooked, and fried fish and was easily enough for two people; then we ordered the sardines beccafico and the tuna in a crust. The portions were adequate for the price, and the quality was truly top-notch! The sardine and tuna gratin was perfect, and not "killing"—the flavor of the fish, which was cooked to perfection! Obviously, considering these are fish dishes, the price per person is medium-high (we paid €32), but it was completely worth it. Perhaps the only suggestion I feel like giving to the restaurant is to include some one-off discounts on the fork to broaden the customer base!

Excellent! I had dinner on a Saturday night with a friend. The food was top-notch, including the desserts. The waiters were impeccable. I recommend it.

Great atmosphere and service is excellent. However the food should be improved. The signature dish seafood pasta, presentation is great, however, the seafood inside are just frozen ones and tasteless. The mantis shrimps are small and have nothing to eat !!!!!!!!!!! The fried zucchini flowers stuffed with shrimp, the batter is too thick.

I recently had dinner at this restaurant and was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was welcoming and the service impeccable. The menu offered a variety of interesting and well-presented dishes. The quality of the food was excellent, with fresh ingredients and well-balanced flavors. I highly recommend this place for a pleasant dining experience.

Found this place by chance, while looking for a place to eat good food. This is the ideal place to try good dishes, very well served, the price is average

Nice restaurant, very kind staff and very good food. Possibility to choose complete menus, typical Turin or typical Sicilian.

Ristorante sardo piemontese con diversi piatti da cui scegliere di entrambe le cucine. ristorante molto carino e ottimo cibo. Abbiamo mangiato bene.

Menu Piémontais superbe, un serveur parle parfaitement le français . Accueil excellent, cadre sympathique. Nous étions 4, un seul a trouvé les ravioles un peu trop salés. Service très bien. Les desserts étaient bons. Le vin parfait. Bref, nous avons passé une soirée entre amis formidable ! Les digestifs ont été offerts. Une adresse non prévue à retenir !
