There are more and more people looking for Gourmet restaurants (yes), where they serve you with large plates...huge with almost no food inside. And then there are those people who are looking for that trattoria where and how they ate at their grandmother/mother years ago.
Here, at the Piedicastello restaurant, you can find those dishes that I rarely find elsewhere. Good and plentiful.
We had as a first course, there are 5 of us, lentil soup, tagliatelle with ragú (x 2), pumpkin sweets and priest strangles.
Second courses...roast pork in beer and 4 goulash with baked potatoes and polenta.
Dessert... tiramisu (X2).
All good.
2 Water, 1lt of house red wine (Cabernet), 4 Coffees and 2 local grappas.
Total...32 euros each.
P.s. The waiter Francesco (Roman... and a Lazio fan 🦅) was really good, friendly and professional.

An unusual trattoria located outside the historic center of Trento.
The environment is particular, characterized by a collection of varied paintings/objects/furniture, with different styles and references.
I was surprised by the bathroom, as it was "frescoed" in an original and unusual way.
It appears to be slightly spartan in terms of cleanliness, the flaw I can point out concerns the tablecloth... it was clear that it had not been changed as it had sauce and drink stains.
As for the dishes, they were very good.
Each dish, with simple flavours, was cooked to perfection (good starting material).
And the quality/price ratio is super honest!!!
We took:
-fettuccine with mushrooms
-orecchiette with broccoli and sausage
-lentil soup and side dish of Storo polenta
-braised in Barolo
- lamb chops
The service was simple, correct and kind.
Definitely an experience worth trying.

Rustic, typical trattoria, run by a couple of very kind gentlemen. The rooms are completely covered in works of art! Warm and welcoming environment, genuine food (vegan options also available!) and truly honest prices. Highly recommended.

Beautiful, well decorated and artistic rooms.
Welcoming and very kind waiters (it's a shame that the owner at the checkout is a bit hasty and dry in his answers).
Pleasant but not very elaborate dishes, served lukewarm (warmed up).
Few vegetarian options, very few vegan options: potatoes and pumpkin gnocchi topped with poppy seeds. A tomato sauce or oil and rosemary would have added some flavour!

A nice little restaurant 20 minutes walk from the centre. Unfortunately I can't give 5 stars because they didn't have any vegan options other than plain gnocchi. We asked for them with tomato, they confirmed but once they arrived they didn't have any seasoning apart from poppy seeds. Sin! We waited half an hour for the order so go there when you have time available. Nice rustic atmosphere and quite friendly waiters.

Quiet and very friendly restaurant. Rustic-artistic environment. Food like grandma's. Located in a quiet area outside the downtown casino. Ate very well. Honest prices.

The mushroom pasta was excellent. It was a shame that they didn't have any boar meat, but the atmosphere was great with lots of locals. It's crowded, so I recommend reserving a seat.

It's the second time I've come to this place and today after lunch with friends, I can't help but give it 5 stars. Very friendly and fast service. Excellent and quality first and second courses. The gnocchi with pumpkin and the fillet with baked potatoes are absolutely worth trying. Good prices and an artistic and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended
