Ristorante Guado In Godiasco

31/03/2025: Everything is really great! Congratulations! You have to try it!

18/03/2025: It's been years since I left a lunch so satisfied. Trattoria Righini gave me one of the most memorable experiences in the Pavia area, if not in Italy, and I will not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. A place that seems to have stopped in time, becoming a true rarity in the Italian gastronomic panorama. The menu is fixed and prepare to arrive very hungry! There are about ten appetizers, and the quantity is equal to the quality: all excellent, but honorable mention goes to the lard, cotechino and raw meat - simply incredible. We continue with three first courses: the ravioli with braised meat and those with pecorino and ricotta, homemade, tell the story of the skill of the kitchen at first taste. The artichoke risotto, despite not being a favorite of mine, amazed me with its balance and attention to flavors. The second courses? Four different meats with potatoes. More applause, but the rabbit deserves special praise. When you think it's time for dessert, a refreshing sorbet arrives and... the polenta trolley. I chose it with Gorgonzola and figs: I've never eaten such good cooked figs. The final dessert did nothing but confirm how super this place is: homemade cake with top-quality mascarpone and amazing vanilla ice cream. A non-trivial note: you can ask for seconds, and the staff will be very happy to hear how much you appreciate their products. All this goodness, with house wine, coffee and bitters, for only 40 euros per person. To make everything even more beautiful, let's talk about the staff: smiling, passionate and in love with this unique trattoria. You can feel how much they care about making their passion for the territory and tradition felt. I hope this review conveys the enthusiasm I felt, everyone should have a similar experience, rustic at the right point but authentic. As a lover of good food, Trattoria Righini will always have a special place.
