Ristorante Enoteca Del Borgo In Castell'arquato

The food was very good and reasonably priced. The place is quite small, and when it's full, it can be a bit noisy and difficult to talk.

My wife and I decided to treat ourselves to a Sunday lunch in this beautiful village, and choosing Antica Osteria del Borgo (also known as Piccola Osteria del Borgo) proved to be a perfect choice. The atmosphere is exactly what you're looking for when visiting a place so steeped in history: welcoming, intimate, and authentic. We started with a Platter of DOP cured meats that spoke for itself: the quality of the ingredients was excellent, just as you'd expect in these parts. Next, we couldn't help but try the classic Pisarei and Faśö: expertly prepared, with a rich, heart-warming sauce. But the real surprise was the braised chestnuts and porcini mushrooms, accompanied by perfectly crispy fried polenta; a fragrant and tender seasonal pairing, a dish we'll remember for a long time. To finish on a high note, I indulged in the Bargnolino: a truly artisanal delicacy that provided the perfect finishing touch to a memorable meal. Special mention goes to the staff: impeccable service, friendly, knowledgeable, and always smiling waiters, capable of making you feel pampered without being intrusive. If you're passing through Castell'Arquato and are looking for authentic Piacenza cuisine served with grace, this is the place to be. We'll definitely be back!

We had lunch at the small Osteria del Borgo. What can I say: the staff were incredibly kind, the food excellent, and the welcome was wonderful. We didn't book and the restaurant was packed, so to make our wait more pleasant, they offered us a small welcome aperitif. We ordered a plate of Piacenza cured meats, two carbonaras with truffle and culatello, and a tagliata, all accompanied by a bottle of live meat recommended by the waiter. The carbonara was simply FANTASTIC, the meat was incredibly tender, and the cured meats were delicious. The price was fair. Congratulations, we'll definitely be back!!

A small but elegant restaurant with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We arrived without a reservation, and despite the restaurant being packed, they found us a table for an hour without ever making us feel rushed. Excellent food, impeccable service, and professional yet friendly and welcoming staff. We'll definitely be back, as we'd have loved trying other dishes. I recommend booking: such kindness, quality, and professionalism are truly rare.

We went for lunch today and were greeted with such attention and friendliness! The food was very good and the price was more than fair!!! The owner even brought a small appetizer of fried gnocco and culatello for my wife without asking, since I was the only one having a first course! A real plus ☺️

Excellent experience A typical osteria-style restaurant, with good, authentic food and friendly staff. Perhaps a little more space between tables would be ideal, but the small size of the restaurant doesn't allow for it. Prices are in line with the local area.

A very charming, well-maintained, and friendly osteria in Castell'Arquato. Truly good food, very friendly staff, and a setting filled with paintings that give it character. Perfect for a quality lunch in the area. Highly recommended if you're passing through, without a doubt.

Very nice restaurant in the village of Castell'Arquato. The atmosphere is very homey and pleasant, and the service is excellent! The dishes are made with quality ingredients and beautifully presented! Thanks for the wine recommendation, very good!

Small place with just a few tables; I recommend making a reservation. Traditional dishes are well-prepared and delicious. Fast and accurate service. Cute atmosphere with a family feel, but very noisy, making it difficult to have a simple conversation. The desserts are revisited, but I wasn't entirely satisfied. The custard is soft and loose, nothing like the typical Emilian custard.

Amazing experience. The place is a real surprise. Reasonable prices and excellent quality. I recommend the "sbrisulona"... It's exceptional.
