Locanda Sensi In Rivergaro

Everything was perfect. Cinzia and Simone manage everything independently, in an incredible way. We stayed in the wooden suite and had dinner in their restaurant... we truly enjoyed it. The suite has every comfort you need to relax, even meditation/yoga mats with a pillow... we ate wonderfully at dinner. We also want to highlight the service of the young man who helps them as a waiter: kind, polite, and committed... unique! Cinzia has that holistic, oriental, zen touch that makes you feel at home. Simone has a passion for cooking, meat, and wine (an immense cellar) that would make you want to eat anything... my partner was amazed! For anyone who needs to relax and unwind from the daily routine/stress... this place is the perfect choice. I thought, "This is peace of mind!" Highly recommended.

Impressive location, chic atmosphere and exquisite food.

Over the years, the road to the restaurant has improved, with no potholes and much smoother. The magnificent grand piano is no longer in the dining room. The chairs are very heavy to move, and the glass backs, while very scenic, I found a bit too straight, resulting in a slight backache during the evening. The service was perhaps overly generous upon arrival, only to be lacking on several occasions during the dinner. I disagree with the decision not to leave a bottle of wine at the table, but to come specifically to refill glasses whenever they were empty or half-empty. The dishes are above-average prices, despite the restaurant being nestled in the hills... so in my opinion, they should lower these prices a bit to attract more customers (for example, I'm from Parma, so I'll definitely avoid returning, since I can easily stay in the center of Piacenza to spend this kind of money). The portions are truly paltry. €20 for six salmon bites. The "Salame 3 DOP with giardiniera for €18" was good, but the giardiniera was really too little. The bread was good. The first course, "spaghettone," was good, at €18, disproportionately priced for two dishes but a very small portion. And here's where they forgot to bring the parmesan. Then we ordered a Florentine steak for two (€88 for a Florentine steak). We asked for it to be medium rare, but it arrived half raw, and I only managed to eat three pieces of fillet, while the entire remainder of the sirloin was inedible. They also forgot to bring us oil/salt/pepper, which I went to look for myself in the dining room but couldn't find, and we had to wait for the waiter to return to ask for them. As a side dish to the Florentine steak, there were two small plates of baked potatoes, which seemed lukewarm on the outside but were scorching on the inside, and we both burned our tongues... Not good enough! At the end of the evening, we weren't offered any digestifs, as we've often been to in almost every restaurant we've been to. Even the two lemons we ordered were regularly charged €10. A €1 discount on the receipt. The final bill was a steep €215. I don't think we'll be back.

A delicious New Year's Eve dinner in a romantic setting with delightful background music from a beautiful baby grand piano played beautifully live.

I spent New Year's Eve here, and what can I say? Everything was excellent. Beautiful location, relaxed atmosphere, and the staff were always very nice and helpful. We'll definitely be back.

On Saturday, December 13th, for my birthday, we went to this restaurant with meticulous attention to detail. We were greeted by a very young but very knowledgeable, kind, and friendly waiter. The dishes were carefully prepared and everything was delicious, even the homemade bread. For dessert, I ordered the amazing rose cake, which even came with candles. Everything was truly perfect, and to top it off, we even saw shooting stars. Top!! We'll definitely be back.

Locanda Sensi is a beautiful place, nestled in the green hills of Piacenza. We visited for a tasting dinner featuring the new menu, and the culinary and service experience was excellent. The grilled dishes were unique and delicious. The service was prompt and friendly. We also had the opportunity to tour the two suites and are sure to return soon for a relaxing weekend, also taking advantage of the treatments and massages at the on-site wellness center.

Wonderful location, nestled in the Piacenza valleys. The owner, Simone, is always very kind and helpful, and the staff is very knowledgeable and polite. The food is a true journey through flavors! I recommend this restaurant because it's unique!

I went to Locanda Sensi for dinner and can honestly say it was one of the best experiences I've had in recent years. The cuisine won me over. Each dish was perfectly balanced: clean, intense flavors, never overpowering. You can taste the passion of those who carefully consider each ingredient. The grill adds that unique touch that makes everything recognizable and "Sensi-style." Excellent raw materials, prepared without overdoing it, with meticulous attention to detail. The service is impeccable: attentive, friendly, never intrusive. A care that isn't ostentatious, but natural. The spaces are also wonderful: warm, bright, with attention to detail, reflecting the same philosophy as the cuisine. I left feeling like I'd experienced something special: an evening that lingers, but above all, one that makes you want to return and bring your loved ones with you. Congratulations indeed: Locanda Sensi is a place that knows how to welcome, excite, and make you feel at home.

I recommend getting something grilled and the memorable apple tarte tatin - well done!
