L'appetito vien mangiando In Bergamo

26/10/2025: First time at this restaurant, we made a reservation for four. Parking is available in front of the restaurant, but it's all taken. "Spaces" can be found along the street, just a short walk away. The restaurant is spotless, and the welcome is warm. The small, intimate restaurant offers a complimentary appetizer of bruschetta and a shot of Spritz. Reservations are recommended. We started with the house appetizer... not good... otherwise, I would have given the food 5 stars for value. The appetizer was a bit disappointing, and in my opinion poorly thought out: some cold cuts, a piece of cheese, and a slice of grilled zucchini. We started out a little disappointed, but fortunately things were improving. The Casoncelli Bergamaschi were excellent, perhaps the best I've eaten this year, followed by beef stew with polenta and potatoes. Both the meat and polenta tasted spectacular. We finished with an apple strudel accompanied by a berry sauce, a scoop of ice cream and homemade cream, simply delicious. The price, from appetizer to dessert including coffee and water, was about 30 euros. I'll gladly return, also for the "young" and professional service that welcomes you and greets you with a smile.

26/10/2025: We were riding our motorcycles through the passes and valleys in the area and stopped for lunch on Saturday. What can I say? Excellent food, excellent staff, excellent atmosphere, our compliments! The chef and owner are very friendly and helpful, and he's also a motorcyclist and cyclist like us! Best regards, and see you next time!
