Locanda Villa Cavalleri In Gattinara

06/02/2026: We went to this restaurant after booking a birthday aperitif well in advance. When we arrived (6:30 PM), the table was ready but not set, and it remained that way all evening. Nineteen of us shared an aperitif, eating directly from the platters with our hands... And it wasn't finger food, but fried foods and cured meats. At the end of the aperitif, we were supposed to bring a cake, which we had already communicated when booking. The cake was brought to us but then left on the table for over 40 minutes. After calling several times, we were first asked if we could cut it ourselves, and when we said "yes," it was taken to the kitchen and served several more minutes later (it was a fresh tart with custard and fruit). The price was normal, €297 for 19 people... The aperitif was good, but the service and staff needed to be reviewed, especially if you specify that it was a birthday.

02/02/2026: A colleague's birthday party, a lavish aperitif and everything was delicious, a nice place but poor service, a cocktail was served without knowing whether it was alcoholic or non-alcoholic, the waitress asked to taste it so if it was alcoholic she would take it away from the pregnant woman, who had already been served.
