Trattoria Achilli In Pavia

It's like staying at grandma's house... Simplicity, courtesy, and home-made food

You have to go because these places must continue to exist, legendary Mrs. Renata. Excellent cured meats and generous first courses. The braised beef as a second course is the best butter in Pavia. Affordable prices. P.S. This is a historic place that has remained unchanged since the 60s and 70s. Truly unique. Highly recommended.

The simplicity of the grandmother, over eighty years old, and together with the home-made dishes make the place the most beautiful welcome, I recommend everyone to frequent, the price accessible to everyone, workers and non-workers.

The beauty of simplicity and authenticity. This is the feeling I had during my lunch at Trattoria Achilli. I truly enjoyed my stay. Signora Itala is incredibly kind; she treated me almost like a grandson, and I was deeply touched by it. It's truly admirable that an 80-year-old woman runs the place and makes sure her customers feel comfortable. Many compliments, indeed! I breathed in the typical atmosphere of old-fashioned Lombard trattorias, and it brought back so many childhood memories. The food was simple, but good and authentic. The atmosphere was very peaceful. The prices were fair. I would gladly return.
