Ristorante Villa Naj In Stradella

Great atmosphere, excellent service, and the people were always positive! The food was beautifully presented, often very exciting, with our highlights being the tomato course, foie gras, risotto, and spaghetti. It could have been seasoned a bit more boldly; we felt that was missing a bit at times, and it therefore came across as a bit "flat."

We had the pleasure of dining at Villa Naj by choosing the 9-course tasting menu, letting ourselves be completely guided by the chef's vision. We couldn't have made a better choice: it was a refined, surprising and deeply satisfying culinary experience, in every aspect. The location is already enchanting in itself: an elegant villa, immersed in a quiet and suggestive context, where every detail is taken care of with taste. The rooms are simple but refined, and you immediately perceive an atmosphere of welcome and professionalism. The service was impeccable. The staff is highly trained, attentive, kind but never intrusive, with that discretion that makes you feel looked after and pampered from start to finish. Each dish was presented with care and expertise, accompanied by precise but never long-winded explanations. As for the tasting menu... a journey. The 9 courses chosen by the chef were a harmonious crescendo of technique, taste and emotion. It's not just about eating, but about being accompanied in a sensory narration that involves sight, smell and palate. Each dish is a small work of art, both in the presentation and in the construction of flavors. The raw materials are clearly excellent, and the chef manages to make them shine through combinations that are never banal but always balanced, between tradition and innovation. We particularly appreciated the ability to surprise without overdoing it: nothing is excessive, each element has a precise meaning in the dish. The sequence of courses was intelligently designed, playing on consistencies, temperatures, intensities and aromas in order to always keep attention and curiosity high. The wine pairing (optional, but highly recommended) further enhanced the experience. The selection proposed was in perfect harmony with the dishes, and a deep expertise is also evident in the oenological part. The bill is consistent with the level of the experience, absolutely justified by the quality, research and atmosphere that Villa Naj is able to offer. In conclusion, Villa Naj is a restaurant that I would recommend without reservations to those looking for a true gastronomic experience, not simply a "meal". It is the ideal place to celebrate something special or even just to indulge in an evening out of the ordinary. We will definitely return, curious to discover how the chef's story will evolve. Sincere compliments to the entire team, in the dining room and in the kitchen, for the excellence demonstrated.

Made a detour in a weekend trip with my partner, found this restaurant in Michelin Guide with one star and available booking for the same day The staff was really kind and caring about our full course “viaggio” menu with wine pairing

Experiential travel with excellent service

A fantastic 360 degree experience. The excellent service always present but with discretion and professionalism. The food excellent. Highly recommended.

Everything excellent! Menu, service, decor… all managed with great care in an elegant but relaxing environment.

Pleasant experience. Young, confident and competent chef, team and service. Particular note for the sommelier who demonstrates great passion, provokes with pairings and surprises. Guideline: great attention to the territory with the right degree of contamination.

Thank you Villa Naj...you made this evening truly special. Congratulations to the whole team

My first experience in a starred restaurant takes place at Villa Naj, in the splendid setting of the hills of Torrazza Coste. Upon entering the restaurant I was immediately struck by the beauty of the room, illuminated by the large moon-shaped chandelier in the center. Each table is illuminated from above by a dedicated light, allowing the guest, once seated, to be able to immerse themselves deeply in the culinary journey proposed by chef Fisichella, forgetting about everything else. Everything served by the highly trained dining room staff tells of a profound research into the balance of flavours, the valorisation of local raw materials and the amazement of those who taste with simple ingredients, but managed with such mastery as to be the protagonists of excellent dishes. To accompany the dishes, a selection of excellent local and foreign wines skillfully chosen by Luca, the sommelier. I also had the great pleasure of meeting the chef and his young team, who together gave me a strong sense of cohesion and collaboration. Villa Naj is a symbol of love for the territory and trust in good cuisine, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the thrill of an unforgettable lunch or dinner.

Locale raffinato e con un servizio eccellente , la cucina del giovane chef stellato che ha lavorato in alcuni dei più accreditati ristoranti milanesi risulta innovativa e ricca di spunti per gustare al meglio ogni piatto . Credo sia stata la mia migliore esperienza da diversi anni nella Provincia di Pavia che nn abbonda di simili offerte culinarie .
