L'Arte Della Pizza Di Grieco Carmela In Gassino torinese

25/03/2024: Extremely kind staff, beautiful venue, awesome drinks and very good food. They exceeded our expectations and gave us extra food because we were enthusiastic about their food and service! I Highly recommend and plan on going back!

21/03/2024: Four stars for the beauty of the venue, in Art Nouveau style like the building that houses it and characterized by large windows. The circular-shaped restaurant is arranged on two floors plus an outdoor area. On the ground floor there is a bar counter and a room with furnishings almost entirely inspired by the bell'epoque. Ditto for the room upstairs, a secluded and confidential area ideal for a romantic date. On the first floor there is also the bathroom, which unfortunately does not maintain the stylistic characteristics of the rest of the room. The staircase that connects the two floors is a spiral type, but equipped with a stair lift that allows even those with walking difficulties to reach the upper floor. The outdoor area is furnished more in 70s style, with square black plastic tables and dark imitation leather armchairs. Personally I would have opted for circular tables and chairs entirely in wrought iron with a retro feel, perhaps less comfortable but more coordinated with the rest of the place... Aesthetics aside, the bar is always very busy and although the staff is quick and expert you always end up to wait due to the constant influx of customers. Coffee and the like are good as is the croissant dough, light and crumbly but the filling of the latter is really too little generous. The prices of the cafeteria and the pastries are all in all normal but a Ceres at €5.50 seems really too much even for an elegant bar...
