Ristorante AL 9 In Chieri

Spectacular experience, warm and intimate environment, we chose the tasting menus and I would say the results were surprising, excellent in everything. I recommend it for a truly special evening.

Dinner with the family. The environment is very pleasant, simple and quiet. Discreet and attentive service. The dishes are all excellent, in particular the 'amuse bouche' everyone liked. Good wine list with a wide choice. Definitely recommended.

If you want to fully enjoy the experience they offer you, you have to try the tasting menu accompanied by the wines chosen by them. It's an explosion of flavors

I can't say I ate badly, however the experience was not as positive as I expected. We took the 4-course free-hand menu (dessert included). Right portions to finish the meal without feeling tired. The dishes were good, well made, solid. The problem was the service understood not as waiters (impeccable) but everything else. Instead of immediately bringing us the wine list, we are brought a mini aperitif wine list, only by the glass. At least the proposals were valid.... The menu isn't there: the market cuisine is excellent, but the fact of describing the courses verbally is out of the question: I want the menu on paper not only for the prices (the only thing on the menu brought ) but to be able to consider the courses carefully. Done like this, it is a semi-obligatory invitation to take the tasting menu.... The crockery with which the various dishes were served were beautiful but not very practical: in particular the fact of having served the snails without a plate but only a bowl (where do I put the cutlery once I've finished?) We chose the wine pairing with the dishes: very, very questionable. 3 glasses of which only 1 for starter and first course (a reasonable Sauvignon): 2 would have made more sense..... The fish of the second course was paired with a BARBERA (also with a lot of wood), and the third glass was a passito paired with a mini dessert (useless). All for 25 euros each.... Well... In the end 90 euros each: max 70 would have been right to leave reasonably happy.
