Ristorante ControCorrente In Torino

It's been a year now since Turin became part of the cities that crossed paths with my destiny, and I've been living here permanently for almost two months. A year ago, in November, just in these days, I arrived in the city for the first time for work reasons. In the evening, when I went out for dinner, I was directed to this small restaurant, not far from the hotel where I was staying. Already from the outside the place conveyed pleasant sensations, due to the contrast between the cold and darkness outside and the warmth of the lights of the chandeliers which, through the glass, showed the room and the people sitting inside. Since I entered that evening, Paolo's small restaurant has become for me, as it is for many, the usual place. Politeness, friendliness, informality, familiarity. There is no search for perfection, but for authenticity. The idea is to vary at least a good part of the menu almost daily to offer different dishes and fresh ingredients, according to the seasons, availability and even ideas, so that neither customers nor owners can get bored. Moving on to the gist: the dishes are tasty, well cooked and the portions are generous; the prices are more than fair. My friend, it's always a pleasure to come back. Henry

Absolutely recommended restaurant! Delicious food and generous portions, family atmosphere and impeccable service! I will definitely go back

Evenings where you can spend peaceful moments, eating well and having fun

Excellent food, very friendly staff

Paolo, the manager, is a great person. "It was born" to offer the students of the Polytechnic a place to meet. His partner, an excellent cook. I don't recommend it because there are few places and if you go, you risk finding the place full 😁

Very small restaurant with few tables but good food... I recommend looking at the menu on the Facebook page and booking, already giving the order of what you want to eat.

Ci sono stato a cena con un mio collega. Abbiamo preso spaghetti al pomodoro con burrata e cipolle caramellate e per concludere un dolce. Tutto buonissimo. Il titolare molto cordiale, ci tornerò sicuramente!! Un consiglio, prenotate in quanto ha pochi coperti!!

Good, and basic without too many frills

Highly recommended place. Friendly and engaging staff, attentive to customers. To date the best fish restaurant tried in Turin. We will definitely be back.

Porzioni abbondanti e di qualità. Abbiamo fatto un pranzo in famiglia e siamo rimasti tutti soddisfatti. Personale molto cordiale
