Trattotria Il Cavallino In Barbariga

What can I say? The casoncelli at Barbariga are always exceptional. A classic trattoria in the lower Brescia area where eating is an insane pleasure. We had appetizers, two pairs of casoncelli, including the pumpkin ones, which were truly magnificent. Finally, the beef in olive oil was delicious. Excellent selection of wines and spirits, too. Definitely worth returning.

Quiet place for business lunches, fast service.

The number one casoncelli in Brescia. An old-fashioned trattoria with tables facing the bar and two other rooms. The service staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a set menu lunch featuring the legendary casoncelli di Barbariga in two varieties: meat and herbs, seasoned with melted butter and sage...a delight. The appetizer of mixed cured meats accompanied by mushrooms in oil, pickled vegetables, and peppers in oil was also very good. The house wine, Montenetto di Capriolo al Colle, was very good. The price was more than reasonable. We didn't manage to eat either the main course or the dessert. Highly recommended. P.S.: My dog ​​was welcomed with great enthusiasm. Having returned several times, I can only confirm my first review.

Reading up on the history of casoncello, we're pleased to note that Barbariga is one of its founders. Driven by curiosity, we searched Google and came across the Cavallino trattoria, where we were struck by the history of the place we'd read on their website. Without hesitation, we made a reservation! Once we arrived, the first, wonderful image we had was a sweet lady at the bar, ready to welcome her guests. The place has a rustic feel, like the places of old, and we thought to ourselves: We're in the right place! We were then greeted by Massimo, a delightful man who welcomed us in a way that rarely happens in restaurants. Naturally, we immediately ordered two of the three types of casoncelli they offer: Delicious! Which prompted us to order the third type, the traditional Brescian one—wonderful! The second course surprised us with a seemingly simple cold beef dish with oil, garlic, and parsley, which turned out to be exquisite! To finish, a homemade apple crumble tart. What can I say... Beyond the quality/price ratio, which is hard to find elsewhere, the friendliness, the lively dining room, and the locally sourced food made for a noteworthy lunch. We'll definitely be back when we're in Barbariga again! Best regards, Angelo & Chiara from Treviso

Casoncelli bresciani and various typical types to try in a very welcoming local trattoria. Ideal for business lunches and to try the excellent casoncelli, accompanied by vegetables and other dishes of the day. Kind and very helpful staff.
