I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina valdostana in Valle d'aosta

30/08/2025: Good food, nice atmosphere, but the service was a bit slow considering the place wasn't full.

30/08/2025: Typical Aosta Valley food with a few innovative twists. Unfortunately, the August day we ate there was very hot, and the restaurant doesn't have fans or air conditioning, so we didn't enjoy our dinner very much.

18/08/2025: An experience that personally left me deeply saddened and embittered. Three others, along with me, went to eat as the first stop on our holiday at this pleasant-looking "inn" with excellent hospitality from the waiters. After ordering a good fondue appetizer and four different dishes, two with chanterelles, one with goose, and one with venison carpaccio, upon first tasting, I immediately noticed a very acidic aftertaste in my roast beef with chanterelles. After confirming this with the others at the table (who all gave me the same opinion), with the greatest respect and kindness possible, I called the attention of one of the staff members and mentioned almost in a whisper (the room was full anyway, and I would have been sorry to create a scene) that I thought there was something very strong about the flavor of the oil in my dish, and I politely asked if I could have it unseasoned. From this point on, the innkeeper became more heated, insinuating that I was questioning the quality of the food or the products they used (even though I, having worked in the restaurant business for over ten years, had adopted a less-than-offensive approach to avoid offending anyone). He then began to press me, almost forcefully placing a bottle of oil on the table (as if a restaurant could only have one), telling me I could taste it myself, and that it couldn't possibly be defective. After leaving us at the table in dismay (I repeat, I had tasted the dishes my companions had, and they were good), he returned with a menu, asking if I wanted to order anything else, and emphasizing that my dish would be thrown away (as if I were happy to waste food, especially animal food). At that point, I repeat that if I'd had the option, I would have gladly eaten the same dish, as long as it was made without oil (since both the mushrooms and the meat seemed delicious), but there's no way: the answer is again negative, and she is arrogantly pressed: "And in any case, whatever dish I choose from the menu, it will always be made with the same oil!!!" almost as if advising me not to order anything else. The embarrassment in the dining room is palpable, and I myself, despite not feeling guilty, nor having wanted to point fingers at anyone, find myself under the accusations of the restaurateur himself. Very uncomfortably, I "thank you" and, reiterating their reasoning without wanting to argue, I return the menu, especially since, in the meantime, my companions had finished their dishes, which, I repeat, did not have the same defect. The cherry on top comes at the cashier, where, with a smile, we are greeted with the final surprise: being charged in full for the returned dish! So we politely explained to the lady (it wasn't the same one) what had happened, and she, still smiling and already aware of the situation, explained that even though it had been refunded in full, they had prepared it, and we would still have to pay for it. Every attempt at mutual understanding was snuffed out, and we certainly wouldn't have argued over €18 for a roast beef, which we ultimately paid with respect and civic duty, something that unfortunately wasn't reciprocated in the slightest by the restaurant's treatment. For me, it's a disappointment, not only because it will leave us all with the bitter taste of a truly mocking injustice as a "start to vacation," but above all because the contrast between the seemingly homely and welcoming restaurant and the treatment we received due to a "truly silly" mix-up is something that personally left me truly shocked. I sincerely hope it never happens to anyone again, because regardless of my missed meal, the feeling of being publicly blamed, in front of the entire room and with aggression, is something I will never easily forget, and something I never imagined could happen in such an environment.

18/08/2025: Excellent! They offered us a table even though we didn't have a reservation (on the condition that we free it up in 1.5 hours because it was already booked). The food, service, and atmosphere were spectacular! We'll definitely return if we return to Aosta.

15/07/2025: I had dinner at Trattoria Praetoria with the kids, and overall, it was not life changing. The service was okay, the waiter didn’t volunteer their best dishes dispute me asking multiple times. Just pointed to which ever ones were not pork. The ambiance is average, which is definitely ok if the food is amazing. The food was decent but nothing memorable. My kids didn’t like their pasta at all—they somehow managed to mess up plain penne with cheese, turning it into something closer to a white sauce. The waiter also got my starter order wrong, so I ended up with a whole cheese dish—not what I wanted, even though it tasted good. My main was good flavor-wise, but the portion of meat was a bit low. And I generally don’t like meat in sauce. Not a place I’d go back to but not disappointed by it either.

12/07/2025: Highly recommended. The food (I had vitello tonato and then sausages in tomato sauce) was excellent. This was complemented by an outstanding Chardonnais from the Aosta Valley. The small outdoor seating was shaded by plants. Always worth a visit to beautiful Aosta.

12/08/2025: Discovered by chance after a mountain bike ride. Excellent pizzas, as well as the lard, chestnut, and honey appetizer. Clean place, friendly staff, fast service. I'll be back for dinner soon!

09/08/2025: Great food, helpful and kind staff. We enjoyed great pizzas and gnocchis

01/08/2025: This establishment is magical!!! We've been going here for a long time, and it's always a smooth ride. Very warm welcome Very good service The plates are generous That's exactly it. The best polenta in the valley 😂 A superb wine list. In an authentic and warm setting. A must-try!! Very good value for money. I absolutely recommend it 🙏

15/07/2025: Wonderful location for anyone who loves Christmas, you can feel the kindness and spirit of the people who work there

18/08/2025: Basic but good rooms. Very friendly people and delicious food.

17/08/2025: Had a great lunch on August 15th.

24/07/2025: Ormai è una tappa fissa non rinunciabile,praticamente impossibile da eguagliare. Unico problema….?????Non riesco a dire no a nulla…MANGIO TUTTO 🤣🤣🤣

06/07/2025: Esperienza meravigliosa e da ripetere. Tutto è curato è ristrutturato con gusto e amore. L’accoglienza squisita, il cibo ottimo. Un posto speciale davvero. Grazie Alberto 😊

16/08/2025: Unfortunately, I would have gladly given it 5 stars, both for the good food and the courtesy of the owner and waitresses... BUT, I have some concerns about the bill. Having left without a receipt, we weren't able to verify what was wrong. It's a shame because everything was perfect.

16/08/2025: Everything is always perfect, both the staff and the dishes, and the tranquility of the top restaurant never disappoints.

03/08/2025: The food was okay, good quality. The problem was the rudeness of one staff member in particular. We walked in and he shouted "TWO?" twice without even looking at us, much less a "Good evening." After showing us our table, he threw the menus along with his tablet and left... Same guy, when I met him in the entrance hallway, he stood in front of me with the plates in his hand and waited for me to move aside so he could let me pass, without even saying thank you (I should point out that, in addition to being a customer, I'm also visibly pregnant.) Last but not least, I met him in the bathroom and he came out without washing his hands. The thing that worries me most is that I think he's the manager because he was wearing a polo shirt, while the other, more friendly, waiters were wearing different outfits. P.S.: From the bathroom, you could clearly hear the kitchen staff insulting each other. Well, first and last time.

30/07/2025: Pizza not great. The owner was really unfriendly. Otherwise, the service was good.

17/08/2025: Very good food, family run and welcoming

11/08/2025: Good food, service with a lovely and friendly atmosphere with the special view of Cogne's mountains.

05/04/2025: Frequento La Thuile da 20 anni, al Pepita non ero mai venuto da quando è diventato ristorante perché mi ricordava il pub messicano che c’era fino a qualche anno fa. Devo assolutamente ricredermi! Il miglior tagliere di salumi e formaggi mai assaggiato in Valle D’Aosta , agnolotti ripieni di prosciutto di sanità marcel al lemon grass eccezionali, carni di grande qualità. servizio professionale. Complimenti!

08/03/2025: We went here as a party of ten, comprising all f two families with four teens. It was very busy and we had a few minutes wait for our reserved table (which was good as some of us were running late). The one disappointment was that they did not serve pizzas in the evening, which is a little odd in an Italian restaurant that has “pizzeria” in its name! I’m not sure what the cut off time is but we were sitting down after 9:30pm. The food we did order was all very good and well received. The wine too was good quality. Recommend.

13/08/2025: We were on vacation in the Aosta Valley with my family and came to this restaurant for lunch. Inside, it looks very traditional. We ordered beef carbonada with polenta; the meat was tender and flavorful, and the polenta was truly delicious. We also had a fontina fondue served with steamed potatoes and larded croutons, which was also delicious. The only small flaw: there's no air conditioning, and since it's August, it was quite hot. 😅 But it was absolutely worth it, highly recommended! 😁

11/08/2025: A lovely little place to enjoy authentic Aosta Valley cuisine.

24/08/2025: Incredible fine dining and service. Everything was cook to perfection.

23/08/2025: August 2025… We were rejected because we own two (very good) dogs… These people don't accept dogs. Embarrassing.

06/08/2025: "I had a fantastic stay at this PET-FRIENDLY hotel! 🐾🏨 The staff was smiling, kind, and helpful; even our dog was welcomed like a member of the family. 🐶 The location is perfect for nature hikes, with trails starting directly from the hotel and breathtaking scenery. Great for families, close to the center, and convenient for reaching mountain refuges! But the real highlight of this hotel is the food! The restaurant serves delicious and creative dishes, with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The breakfast was superb, with sweet and savory options. 🍰🥞 Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!

04/08/2025: Amazing and very kind staff..excellent food..We will be back next year..

05/07/2025: Non saprei descrivere con le parole la bellezza di questa baita. È impossibile raccontare con quanta cura il proprietario ha arredato e curato ogni angolo. L’atmosfera che si respira va oltre il singolo suppellettile che sia il coniglietto appoggiato sul davanzale o i fiori che addobbano le finestre. Tutto è perfetto, bisogna esserci per apprezzarne il contesto. Magnifica è la camera, anch’essa rifinita come tutto il resto e senza parole per il servizio offerto e per le deliziose marmellate fatte da loro.

16/03/2025: Dopo una bellissima ciaspolata siamo tornati alla baita per un buon vin brûlé e poi una magnifica cena. Abbiamo provato il menù degustazione. Una favola: abbiamo provato un po’ tutto quello che propone il menù. Piatti ricercati e molto buoni. Il tutto con un’atmosfera magnifica visto che fuori nevicava. Assolutamente da provare!
