L'Osto del Borgh Vej In Torino

04/02/2026: An excellent seafood restaurant in Turin. Not fancy, perhaps a little minimalist, more like an osteria than a restaurant, but the ingredients are excellent and the cuisine is top-notch. Truly excellent value for money. I highly recommend it.

25/01/2026: Last night we went to Mr. Lido. We made a reservation for six, and even on the phone, when I made the reservation, I was surprised to be told I didn't need to leave my phone number; I shouldn't have worried. It had been a while since I'd been back, and as soon as I parked, all the previous visits and the wonderful memories came flooding back. But as soon as I stepped inside, it was like returning to my parents' house, with that distinctive aroma, that welcoming smile, discreet yet radiant. I enjoyed eating again after the cinema, with friends. The Livorno-style caciucco was unmissable, the fish was excellent, the menu wasn't extensive but EVERYTHING was high-quality. Don't expect fusion cuisine or grand-sounding dish names, but instead a homey atmosphere, expertly prepared yet homely cooking, and the intimacy and relaxation you only experience at home. I thanked him personally as I left, but I want to thank him again now: thank you, Mr. Lido. Keep it up. Please, thank you for making us feel at home, every time, even after a long time. I'll be back, we'll be back, soon. I'd forgotten how good it is. Old-fashioned service, very kind and friendly waiters, never overly pretentious. 5 stars for everything. Giuseppe
