Ristorante Pizzeria Garden In Montanaro

09/09/2025: A small but quaint restaurant with an old-world feel, nestled in a hamlet with stone houses and a view of the valley. The road is a bit rough and winding, but the place is worth the trip.

25/08/2025: Dinner on August 1, 2025 This restaurant boasts a typically mountain atmosphere. It's about a half-hour drive from Bardonecchia via a fully paved road, but for long stretches, only one car at a time can pass (with some difficulty if you encounter another vehicle coming from the opposite direction). The Piedmontese menu isn't extensive, but it's still adequate to satisfy all tastes. Our orders were overall satisfactory: a varied mixed antipasto with hot and cold dishes (small portions but reasonably priced), pappardelle with wild boar, porcini mushrooms, and chestnuts, al dente and well-seasoned, but the mushrooms were a bit bland and watery; delicious tagliolini with gorgonzola and walnuts; and delicious gnocchi with butter and toma cheese. Finally, traditional desserts. The wine list focuses on Piedmontese labels, including some very prestigious ones, with a predominance of red wines. The service was courteous and prompt. The price was average, but still reasonable. For those with walking difficulties, there's a rather challenging paved climb to reach the venue. Rating: 7.5
