Texas Bar In Brenta

28/09/2025: This trattoria restaurant adopts my favorite service and menu format. Upon entry, you're greeted with a smile and courtesy, and escorted to your table, where we find two beautiful platters of lard, pancetta, salami, and coppa. On the plates, a mix of excellent and delicate pickled vegetables, a basket of bread, and a plate of focaccia cut into squares. We ask for the house red wine; unfortunately, it's cold, but it's still good. For the first course, the chef and manager, Vittorio (I imagine), offers three options directly at the table: pappardelle with hare sauce, tagliatelle with mushrooms, and crepes with zucchini flowers. We choose the first two... What can I say, excellent. For the second courses, the same procedure with an additional option: polenta and venison, polenta and mushrooms, polenta and rabbit, or lamb chops with roast potatoes and sautéed spinach... How could we not try all four (since there are four of us at the table). The roast rabbit was exquisite; although roasted, it can be a bit stringy, but it's actually soft and slightly moist. Delicious venison and mushrooms, and perfectly cooked ribs... "a butter." For dessert, you could choose from tart, bread cake, Bavarian cream with persimmon cream, pears in brachetto... The only glutton at the table opted for the Bavarian cream. The location is welcoming, warm, pleasantly and delicately rustic. Impeccable service, it's a place worth saving for your address book.

23/09/2025: Really nothing to complain about. Welcoming and clean environment. Kind and helpful people. Home cooking, adequate portions and excellent price. We will definitely be back.
