Rifugio ai Bindesi In Trento

Sunday lunch, two families with four children (aged 11 months to 7 years). We arrived around 11:30 a.m. on foot and approached the facility. Outside, there were two grills and tables set; if it hadn't been so windy, we might have been able to eat outside. We had, however, booked inside, a table for eight, white furs on the strange and unusual back-warming chairs... the menu was limited, which is understandable up to a point, because, yes, we're in a refuge, but it's easy to get there by car from the city, and given how the other guests at the restaurant were dressed, I'd say we were the only ones walking. Lunch was well-served; they started with a house appetizer and then continued with our order: the appetizer was impressive, with a small copper pot for polenta, the tagliatelle with game was excellent, and the egg main course was very unique and delicious. The others who were with us really enjoyed both the strangolapreti and the fish gnocchi. You could also choose a risotto and a beef ham. For dessert, you could choose between a classic strudel, a buckwheat cake, and a tiramisu. I can't comment on the prices, as we ordered two bottles of wine, which certainly increased the total. Overall, I'd give it a 7. Let's just say the hospitality was a bit lacking, but perhaps the guys are young and just need to get their bearings. Update August 2023: We returned to the refuge, this time by car, for dinner. We were looking for some cool air, and it was surprising how at such a low altitude (not even 600 meters above sea level) it could be a few degrees cooler and, above all, a pleasant cool breeze compared to the city. The menu has been expanded since my previous visit. Aperitif overlooking the city with bubbles from a well-known local winery. We tried a breaded cheese appetizer and continued with two main courses: a plate of ribs with potatoes and pork cheek with polenta. Fabulous! I'll post more photos... prices are perhaps a little higher than average. For those seeking a bit of cool, quiet, and a beautiful view, the Bindesi refuge is highly recommended!

Incredible views of the Adige Valley and Trento, enhanced by the skyline of the Brenta Dolomites. The restaurant lives up to its origins as a refuge, combining hospitality, attentive service, and respect for the surrounding environment. Nature completely surrounds the structure, enhanced by multi-level terraces that allow guests to fully enjoy the view and the setting. The extremely courteous, attentive, and attentive staff guides guests through the menu and wine pairings. The highly interesting, never boring dishes showcase local products, expertly combining them. A large parking lot hidden behind the restaurant ensures accessibility to everyone. A must-try and highly recommended.

Excellent choice, I ate very well. The refuge is warm.

Breathtaking views of Trento, a quiet atmosphere, simply yet tastefully furnished. Dishes are prepared with quality ingredients and meticulously presented. Courteous and respectful staff, excellent value. Recommended.

If you're looking for traditional cuisine with a modern twist and exquisite quality, the service is very friendly, and the location boasts incredible views both day and night! I went with two young children, and they were incredibly kind to them. I would definitely return.

Beautiful and welcoming refuge, with exceptional cuisine!

We went for lunch and, even though we live in the area, we had never discovered it: excellent food, impeccable service, and the owner was friendly and kind! We will definitely be back and highly recommend it.
