Ventuno.1 Ristorante e Bottega In Alba

sono stato a cena con mia moglie. Locale rinnovato recentemente, arredamento minimalista piacevole, buono il servizio. Personalmente ho scelto le alici imbottite con provola e zucca in scapece, piatto quilibrato e ottimo, come primo cavatelli con fagioli cozze e bottarga anche questo mi ha soddisfatto, materia prima molto buona. Carta dei vini molto ampia, secondo me sproporzionata nell'offerta di champagne (una quindicina di pagine) contro una sola di bollicine italiane, ma pare sia la moda del momento. Unico aspetto veramente negativo la mancanza della tovaglia, solo un blocchetto di ceramica per appoggiare le posate, ma anche questo pare sia la moda attuale, personalmente non mi piace, e non vedo perchè pagare 3 euro di coperto. Complimenti comunque per la cucina. Prezzo leggermente alto ma ad Alba, oggigiorno, è così in ogni locale.

For years now we have been treating ourselves to a "special treat" once a week by going to 21.1. beautiful place where you eat with a background of Neapolitan music which makes their dishes even better (if that's possible). Alfonso, the chef, puts his heart into every preparation and you can feel it in every bite. Francesco is in the room and is very knowledgeable about wines and every time he gives us poetry in the glasses. Top notch service, always attentive, present but never intrusive. Thank you for making our evenings special. 🥂

Abbiamo cenato sabato scorso presso questo bel ristorante. Per noi nati e cresciuti fra Langhe & Roero, finalmente una proposta “alternativa”. Ovviamente c’è la “divina trinità langarola”, ovvero vitello tonnato - Tajarin - Brasato, ma noi abbiamo optato per l’altra parte di menu, ovvero quella legata all’origine dello chef. Che dire, tutto buonissimo: 4 portate, 2 dolci, 2 calici di Altalanga, caffè. Ovviamente non mancano il benvenuto della cucina, così come un piccolo pasticcino per chiudere in bellezza. 100€ totali, più che giustificati da servizio, location e menù. Voto finale: DIESCI!! Bravi ragazzi, continuate così.

Very well-kept, somewhat cool atmosphere but warm welcome. Small menu (positive), huge wine list with a large selection of champagne with 304 positions, plus Barbaresco and Barolo with vintage depth. Everything at fairly calculated prices. We chose the four-course Langhe menu with Vitello tonnato, the best we've eaten so far, with excellent Vitello cooked to perfection and an ingenious tuna sauce. Then tagliolini al limone with the finest lemon sauce, of course without cream or anything similar. Perfectly cooked al dente and with a finely balanced lemon flavor. The Brasato al Barolo as the third course, the finest beef, braised until tender with a wonderful Barolo sauce. A light pannacotta for dessert. As an aperitif an Alta Langa DOCG and with dinner a Barolo Bussia 2015 from Fenocchio, which delighted us more with every sip. An excellent menu in a pleasant atmosphere with very good service at a fair price. Keep it up.

New Year's Eve dinner. pleasant environment. Welcoming and kind staff. Excellent dishes. Very neat and well presented. Whoever is in the kitchen knows how to do their job with great care and skill. Excellent quality. At midnight they offered excellent champagne. Well done

I was on a Saturday evening, I ate an excellent starter and a delicious second course, excellent quality and excellent cuisine.

CHANGE WAITER Very good cuisine, contemporary restaurant, small but comfortable. However, the service is really bad, the waiter who "served" us, as well as being rude, is not capable of doing his job. Rude because he never said "yes" to every request we made, for example, not even a piece of paper for the little girl to draw on. Incapable because he opened the bottle of wine in the area and opened it loudly. Furthermore, he poured the same randomly without serving the ladies first. Even the dishes were served randomly and hastily placed on the table without taking care. The bill is absolutely fine. Service definitely not up to the Michelin guide. In short, the problem is not the restaurant but some of the staff with a surly and inhospitable character.

Ventuno.1 Ristorante e Bottega: A Refined Truffle Experience in Alba As two couples embarking on a culinary adventure during Alba's white truffle festival, we were drawn to Ventuno.1 Ristorante e Bottega that promised a modern take on the region's traditional cuisine. The restaurant's contemporary interior created a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. The staff were knowledgeable and attentive, guiding us through the menu and extensive wine list with ease. Each dish was beautifully presented and showcased the region's finest ingredients. While every course was delightful, the standout was undoubtedly the egg dish with potato cream and a generous shaving of white truffle. The combination of flavors and textures was simply divine. Ventuno.1 Ristorante e Bottega offers a refined dining experience that celebrates the essence of Alba's culinary heritage. It's a must-visit for those seeking an elegant and memorable meal during their truffle pilgrimage. Recommendation: Reservations are highly recommended, especially during the peak truffle season.

Great selection of champagne. Very tasty fish dishes.
