Locanda Cortiletto d'Alba In Alba

Highly recommended restaurant; we celebrated my partner's 50th birthday here; they even made homemade vegan Sacher torte for the most discerning guests. Exceptional! They were able to satisfy all tastes. Thank you so much!

Excellence in hospitality and authentic flavors in the heart of Alba. We dined at Il Cortiletto d’Alba restaurant, and the experience was immediately top-notch. We were greeted with impeccable grace and efficiency by a young waitress who welcomed us with great professionalism. The real added value, however, was meeting a very kind lady who explained the menu to us. More than just a reading of the dishes, it was a passionate account of the ingredients: she provided us with detailed information on the provenance of the ingredients, all of which were of the highest quality. From the famous Entracque potatoes to the delicacy of the black truffle, to the organic vegetables, every element exuded freshness and local tradition. What truly struck us—and almost embarrassed by how rare it is these days—was the lady's attention and extreme kindness; a thoughtfulness that makes the guest feel truly special. In the kitchen, the ingredients are treated with respect: the dishes are flavorful and balanced, showcasing each individual ingredient without overpowering it. A valuable tip: the restaurant is very popular, so booking in advance is highly recommended. Although we didn't, we were lucky: thanks to their exceptional helpfulness and courtesy, they managed to find us two seats despite being sold out. The price was more than fair. We'll definitely be back. A big shout out to all the staff: really well done!

I had the pleasure of meeting the young owner and was enchanted by her elegance; excellent cuisine and excellent wine cellars. Anyone stopping in Alba cannot fail to savor the raw ingredients and the cooking methods of this cuisine.

Fantastic welcome! Excellent food! Excellent wines! Excellent explanations! Excellent tastings! Highly recommended!!!

Sunday lunch, no instructions, we chose it out of kindness. And we were lucky, the place is really small but original and very intimate. We had a great time, the friendly staff makes you feel at home, Elisabetta is professional, very kind, she advises and helps you with your choices, excellent dishes and also beautiful to look at. Highly recommended! Thank you.

A truly enchanting place. We stayed one night with breakfast included. The room was lovely and spotlessly clean. The staff were friendly and the breakfast was excellent, featuring local products.

Well-kept place, very close to the center and very professional staff.

We ate very well in the cellar 😊
