Mammalia In Sestriere

Sono capitato per l'ora di pranzo, prima di andare sulle piste e a camminare in montagna. Mangiato uno stinco di maiale al forno. Non male, locale molto caratteristico, prezzo ok. Forse un 3 euro meno il tutto ma ok.

I had a great experience. The culinary quality is excellent and the service was impeccable. The only downside was the somewhat rude welcome from the boss. However, that didn't stop us from enjoying the setting and the whole experience. In summary, a place that I still recommend for its cuisine and service. 🍽️🌟

Seeing the reviews I was a little hesitant, but I ate very well and the staff were very kind

Very nice place, all wood and characteristic. Top waiter and very friendly and welcoming owner. The portions are generous and everything is very good. We had a starter of cured meats and cheeses, followed by lasagna, wild boar and venison (there were three of us). The deer was delicious and tender and melted in your mouth, as was the wild boar. The lasagna with toma cheese was super, my 5 year old daughter liked it!! We will happily return one of the next days before returning home! Super recommended restaurant!

I had noticed this little place since the first day I arrived in Sestriere!! From the outside the equipped wooden house had a welcoming atmosphere, in fact I wasn't wrong!! We decide to go there for lunch, we ask the restaurateur, who was very kind among other things, what the dishes of the day were. He brought us some homemade tortellini and agnolotti, one seasoned with boiled meat, the other with Piedmontese sausage... what can I say? Of a unique delicacy, a joy for the palate. The same thing I can say for the osso bucco that served us second, excellent is an understatement! I usually don't like cakes with apples, but even the dessert didn't disappoint me, in fact I loved their apple cake with eggnog cream!! I conclude by saying that I have found my favorite restaurant in Sestriere!!! From today I know where to find excellent food cooked with heart! Highly recommended

Let me start by saying that I didn't see the reviews before entering the restaurant with my girlfriend, from the outside it looked like a very nice place, welcoming and with nice dishes. We booked for the evening to eat there and the first welcome was really pleasant, the young waiter was very polite and helpful. The problem arose upon the arrival of the older waiter who, after we asked for simple information and ordered our food, responded badly, leaving us stunned.... Asking the young waiter if there were any problems (since we are quiet people) we understand that the gentleman is in himself rude to customers. Despite this we ate our dishes which were really good in fact I celebrate my birthdays with the chef👍🏻. However, this story left us with a bad taste in our mouths and we also had it when the elderly waiter came to us and instead of a simple excuse he made up a colossal lie to justify what he said at that moment, blaming it on some foreigners who, according to him, "were stealing something from him outside the restaurant" which doesn't hold up because we saw him head straight for the kitchen as soon as he took the orders... There would be more to add but I'll end here. Having worked in catering, I know well that there can be bad days... But if I had ever allowed myself to say what he told us I would have lost my job immediately, so a piece of advice... Don't treat customers like idiots because they are always the ones who feed you and they are not stupid. In my opinion it is necessary to keep certain thoughts to yourself and, if you are not able to do so, hand the job over to someone else, especially if your job consists of being in close contact with the public, in which you are the representative face of the venue. Ps: receipts are taken seriously because we all have to pay taxes.

Menu is focused on locally sourced goods. Good choices. No pizza. :) // I enjoyed a tagliata with a cheese sauce which was prepared perfectly. The staff were friendly and helped my vegan daughter with a few custom options. We sat in the outside covered area and it was cozy and warm with the fire going and the snow falling outside. Really lovely evening.

An excellent restaurant to enjoy authentic Italian food. The flavors are genuine, the ingredients are quality, and the overall experience is very satisfactory. The homemade desserts stand out especially, which are a delight and the perfect ending to the meal. The only downside is the €3 cover charge, but the quality of the food and service make the visit worth it.

Ate here twice during our week in Sestriere (lunch and dinner). It was the best polenta all week and the service was friendly and welcoming. Small menu but the specials changed and were good.

Cucina buona. Tagliere di affettati e salumi ottimo e di qualità. Servizio buono, non eccellente per alcuni dettagli (cameriere che ascolta i discorsi dei commensali e si intromette). Prezzo medio-alto ma conforme al posto in cui si trova.
