Malga Salanzada In Cavalese

23/06/2025: Attracted by the excellent reviews, we booked a table for 2. Although the food was good, unfortunately the experience was not really up to par. Terrible service, very slow... unkind and almost annoyed staff.... After 50 minutes of waiting they finally brought us at least the menu which is very confusing, as the dishes are written all together, with no distinction between appetizers, first/second courses and no dessert. Out of 3 appetizers, 2 were not available,... and other changes to the menu and off-menu puatti (super banal dishes...) explained hastily by word of mouth. For two diners they were unable to bring the first course at the same time. ...something must have gone haywire in the kitchen....but it is not acceptable, especially if it is not excused, and indeed you feel "unwelcomed". I really don't think we will return.

13/06/2025: We had lunch on a weekday, we found this restaurant by chance in Cavalese, in a small alley in the center. Justina welcomed us kindly but with the typical discretion of these places. The menu had the right number of courses, all very local, without overdoing the imagination and without giving useless imaginative names. For those who are not meat lovers, some fish dishes. Giustina is also a great sommelier who recommended an excellent wine, also from the area, with an excellent bouquet but with a good price. The price paid per person was around €27 for a super satisfying lunch and with an excellent wine. Ps. Exceptional goulash and a revisited tiramisu (by the pastry chef daughter) with caramelized pears. Just a small tip, the contemporary Italian music (perhaps too contemporary) clashed with the wonder of the place and the goodness of the dishes. Total rating: 10 😉
