07/05/2026: I've been wanting to come to this restaurant for a while, and I finally made it! The choice couldn't have been better; we had a great time. Already on the phone, when I asked if it was possible to have lunch à la carte, even on a weekday (when the set menu is the main attraction), I was impressed by the restaurant's integrity and professionalism. They warned me that I might have to wait. Anyway, we showed up at 12, and I must say they were super professional, and we didn't have to wait at all. We enjoyed a generous Novarese platter (salame della duja, fidighina, sweet and spicy gorgonzola, amazing sweet and sour onions, honey, and walnuts), followed by a delicious tartare (bacon tartare). I chose a beef tagliata with zola and hazelnuts; the meat was perhaps a little tough, but it was tasty. For the side, artichokes with potatoes. The dishes are truly generous. We also had an exquisite dessert, a bonet without chocolate, truly delicious. With an excellent Dolcetto, we reached the pinnacle of satisfaction. Service was fast, professional, and courteous. The bill? Light. We'll definitely be back; we're looking forward to some mouth-watering first courses.
03/05/2026: An excellent culinary experience with a slight lapse in style at the end
I recently dined at Le 2 Suocere and I must say that, in many ways, the experience was memorable.
Strengths
Ambience and Hospitality: The restaurant is warm and welcoming, perfect for those seeking a refined atmosphere just steps from the city center. The convenience of free parking nearby deserves a special mention.
Service and Baking: The staff is meticulous and attentive. The homemade breadsticks and bread (in various flavors) are very popular, a detail that demonstrates great care for the ingredients.
The Cuisine: The meat served is high-quality, as are the other ingredients. It's been years since a restaurant surprised me so much with its food pairings. For example, the gorgonzola sorbet served with fruit is a masterpiece: a perfect balance where the freshness of the fruit undercuts the boldness of the cheese. Truly remarkable.
The Sore Point:
Unfortunately, the evening was marred by a detail I consider a real lapse in style. Toward the end of the meal, our half-full bread basket (which costs €3) was taken away and replaced with a new, full one, without us asking. Although the gesture might have seemed like a courtesy, I found myself billed for two baskets totaling €6. Regardless of the paltry sum, I find it unfair to charge for an unsolicited "reserve," especially if it's served after the meal is almost over. In a restaurant of this caliber, customer service should also include transparency regarding these little extras.
In summary: Excellent cuisine and refined flavors, but be careful with the details on the bill, as they risk ruining the memory of a wonderful evening.
