Trattoria Cuore d'Oro In Carisio

It's a charming place because it's kept the same as it was a few years ago. Excellent food in a relaxing atmosphere. We'll definitely be back. The best panissa!

A trattoria like few others these days. Good dishes made with local ingredients, excellent panissa. Friendly service, clean, and a good quality-quantity-price ratio.

Discovered by chance for a business lunch, it feels like stepping back in time, a place where you eat excellently and spend a fair amount, where they focus on substance rather than form. A special mention for the tongue with green sauce!!! Highly recommended!!

Excellent traditional Piedmontese dishes, generous portions, and fair prices. The panissa is a must-try. A great place to break up the journey between Turin and Milan, in a quiet setting just off the highway.

This has become a must-visit when we're in the area. Always excellent food, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere! See you soon.

The fish sample and the snails were excellent.

We stopped at this trattoria by chance. Everything was pretty good, without anything being outstanding. Great prices and friendly staff.

A trattoria in a quiet hamlet of Carisio. It's amazing for its traditional dishes like panissa, stewed snails, and frogs. The atmosphere is very welcoming and homey. The decor is reminiscent of a country house. Highly recommended!

I discovered it by chance and it's a fantastic place. The staff are incredibly friendly, the atmosphere is quaint, clean and tidy, the food is simple and tasty, and everything is prepared with the kindness of a family. Great place ❤️

I discovered Trattoria Cuore d’Oro almost by chance, but it quickly became a truly memorable experience. Located in the hamlet of San Damiano in Carisio (VC), this rustic establishment maintains an authentic charm, just like the trattorias of yesteryear. As soon as you enter, you feel the warmth: simple furnishings, a few brick walls, cozy lighting, and a fireplace—everything contributes to a feel-good atmosphere. The staff is friendly, helpful, and always eager to make your day enjoyable. There's no pretense of elegance, but the care is there and it shows. What you eat here is local, traditional, flavorful, and TYPICAL: The panissa, with rice, beans, and sausage, is a heart-warming dish, hearty and flavorful. The pappardelle, which I didn't order this time, but I did try a little from Nunzia's plate. It was delicious. The fried frogs: a delicacy! Crispy, flavorful, just the right amount of rusticity, well-executed. I'd never tried them!!! The entire meal focuses on real ingredients, homemade dishes, and generous portions—a welcome bonus. The flavors are traditional Piedmontese, unfussy but full of character. The price is more than fair for what you get: quantity, deliciousness, and atmosphere. It's not "gourmet," but it doesn't pretend to be, and that's precisely what makes it special. The only small point: the menu is often "spoken out loud." I asked the lady for the menu, but she didn't bring it. It's not a serious problem, but it's something worth mentioning. If you're looking for a place to enjoy authentic Piedmontese cuisine, with dishes like panissa, frogs, and local first and second courses, in a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere, Cuore d'Oro is definitely worth marking in your diary. Five well-deserved stars: a pleasure for the palate and the soul.
