I visited Boccio in Aosta, a place with an interesting history. The Sant'Orso bowling club used to be located here, and this space was the adjacent restaurant. Over time, it became first a bar and then a restaurant.
Today, it's run by the same owners as the inn and offers highly acclaimed traditional Aosta Valley cuisine.
The interiors are beautiful and beautifully renovated: pure Aosta Valley style, with lots of exposed wood that makes you feel like you're in a mountain chalet, but enriched with modern architectural elements in glass and steel that lend an elegant, contemporary touch. The effect is truly successful.
One thing I was very pleased to see is the young management, made up of young people eager to get things done and bring new ideas. They're also organizing events, music, and cocktails, which bring the place to life and make it even more interesting.
I also really appreciated the music during lunch: subtle yet discreet, creating a sense of atmosphere without disrupting the conversation.
One feature I really liked is that the bowling alley is still accessible outside, and the restaurant also has an area with tables outside, bathed in sunshine at lunchtime. This isn't a given in Aosta, with its mountains and shadows... in fact, it's one of the few places where you can enjoy lunch in the full sun. In summer, there are even umbrellas to protect you from the heat!
In short: typical Aosta Valley cuisine, a very refined atmosphere, and a vibrant, youthful vibe.
The restaurant was renovated following a fire in 2018.
A place definitely worth a visit.
Best regards and kisses! 👋✨

And for over 20 years, they've been our regular stop when we come to Aosta. They're now a sure thing.

The idea of a typical mountain hut is lovely, a warm and welcoming place. Lunch menu for €24 with a choice of two courses: an appetizer, a first course, or a second course, including dessert.
