L'Altana In Barga

Beautiful place, super home-cooked food made with love. A 10/10 service, everything was superb!

L’Altana has a special place in my heart and my stomach having first visited well over a decade ago and making sure it’s frequently visited on every trip to Barga. In my opinion there are 2-3 amazing places to eat in Barga and L’Altana wins…it’s unassuming, understated and almost invisible as you walk through the old town…but don’t be fooled. Inside this modest restaurant (some choose to sit outside) is a family lounge, a space you would visit with best friends and a place you could visit with loved ones - whilst being equally welcome on your own! The menu is simple but underpinned by the common principles of fresh, local and amazing! Must have eaten here 30+ times and not once have I been disappointed- not once! The staff will say no, they may turn you away on sight of an empty table but this ensure they deliver perfection time and time again- so do t assume you know better as they have been running this masterpiece for ages and doing so brilliantly! Best to book ahead to make sure you are not disappointed!

The calf's liver with onions, the orecchiete with sausages, the truffle maccheroni—everything was delicious. Authentic cuisine. A place to treasure.

Excellent food! Two reviews, one vegetarian and one non-vegetarian :) 1. Good vegetarian selection, including the dishes I ordered: macaroni with spinach, ricotta, and hazelnut pesto, bean and cabbage soup (special!), and pappa al pomodoro. 2. I (an omnivore) had liver with onions, so good I even ate the lemon that accompanied it ❤️ The apple pie with ice cream was also very good, and it was also nice to be able to get a bottle of good wine, but only 375 ml, perfect for sharing between two!

We had a truly wonderful time: exquisite cuisine, friendly staff, and a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere in the historic center. Generous portions. Excellent value.

Looking forward to returning soon. Pranzo was delicious.

We went for dinner, the food was very good, I recommend it

The most delicious meal we had in the local area over our 2 weeks. The food was fresh and delicious- the pasta was homemade and cooked to perfection! All the sides were tasty too- couldn’t recommend enough! And a lovely location just inside the old town

locale molto caratteristico nel cuore di Barga, cibo di qualita', locale tranquillo e rilassante, esperienza da provare

Ottimo pranzo con prodotti fatti in casa, servizio gentile e non invadente, atmosfera curata da trattoria tipica di un borgo molto caratteristico. Prezzo giusto. Consigliato!
