I migliori ristorantinella città Monticelli d'ongina della Piacenza

04/11/2025: Very nice place, very well looked after and on November 1st they make delicious beans with pork rinds 😍

03/11/2025: A remarkable experience in a beautiful location. Despite its large size and large seating capacity, the restaurant, even though it's called a trattoria, stands out for its elegance, impeccable service, and high-quality restaurant prices. We appreciated the attention to detail and the appropriate timing for a holiday lunch. Upon entering, you're struck by the immense open kitchen, bustling with chefs and hard-working staff. Continuing, you enter one of two beautiful dining rooms, with tables spaced just the right distance apart for comfort. The menu, while not extensive, focuses on traditional meat and freshwater fish dishes. Since it was our first visit, it was difficult to choose, as all the dishes were tempting and we wanted to try everything. We opted for meat dishes, promising to return to try the fish menu. Although we imagined the cured meats would be exceptional, we chose the guinea fowl salad with mustard, red apple, currants, and hazelnuts. A perfect choice: the sweetness of the meat paired perfectly with the acidity of the apple and currant, while the hazelnuts added the missing crunch. The helpfulness and kindness of the staff allowed us to enjoy a second course of first courses: the classic pisarei e fasò, here enhanced with sausage, and an excellent maccheroncino al torchio with porcini mushrooms, chanterelles, and pumpkin cream. While we played it safe with the pisarei, with the maccheroncini we were impressed by the deliciousness of the pasta al torchio, its perfect texture and chew, as well as the intense flavors of these autumn fruits. An elegant and delicious dish at the same time. The second course did not disappoint either: baked goose leg with potatoes. We were told that the geese come from a farm in Mortara, where the animals are fed only grain in the wild. I don't remember ever tasting such tender, juicy, and flavorful poultry. Like all main courses, this dish is expensive, but the quality of the ingredients fully justified it. The desserts also deserve a mention: we enjoyed a very good three-flavor tiramisu. Lunch was accompanied by a Gutturnio superiore from the La Tosa winery; the wine list is rich with excellent wines, including from outside the region. In conclusion, a lunch at the Cattivelli family is worth the trip, perhaps even in warmer weather to enjoy the beautiful summer terrace. Everything is taken care of down to the smallest detail, and the service is attentive and friendly. The price is substantial, but the quality and service fully justify it.

12/09/2025: I stayed at this hotel for one night. The owners were VERY KIND, they provided me with a place to park my bike. I found the room welcoming and clean. I also had dinner in the restaurant, and what can I say other than THANK YOU. I ate really, really well, from the starter to the dessert, everything was delicious. Well done everyone, and thank you again for making me feel so good ❤️❤️

08/08/2025: I'm reviewing the restaurant: it's a nice place with an outdoor area, and the tortelli aren't bad, which is why I'm giving it 3 stars (although the portions aren't particularly generous). During our last visit, however, we noticed that they're strict about seating. We asked if we could sit somewhere (more outdoors, not near the bathroom) and were told no, even though it remained empty. And above all, once we were seated, we were ignored for quite a while; they didn't even look at us to give us menus or even take our order for water. When I finally asked for the menu, the manager looked at me in an annoyed way, as if I'd bothered him. In short, the service leaves a lot to be desired for what we experienced.

17/09/2025: If you want to eat fried dumplings and cold cuts, this is the right place, very good and the staff are kind and helpful.

01/09/2025: Whenever I'm in the area, it's a must-stop for lunch. The food is truly excellent, with dishes that aren't overly greasy. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The value for money is excellent.

12/11/2025: Rude behaviour, not welcoming, such a bitty for a beautiful place to have this rude behaviour.

09/11/2025: Very characteristic. Unique location on the most beautiful bend of the Po River in the entire Po Valley.

01/12/2025: Very pleasant and welcoming ice cream shop. The interior is a little dated, but clean and tidy. A special brioche and cappuccino are a whopping €4.50, which I don't even spend that much at a pastry shop. Good, average breakfast, but the prices are a bit high.

17/08/2025: Enjoy delicious aperitifs and gelato in Monticelli d'Ongina. You can sit inside or outside under the portico.

06/12/2025: Dinner with friends, ordered pumpkin tortelli, mini portion, 5 tortelli in number....for 13 euros

30/11/2025: All very good and highly recommended

04/06/2025: It was recommended to us by the nearby Hotel70 and we ate very well! We recommend it ourselves

19/05/2025: Too bad the pizza was burnt. I could have easily pointed this out but I was in a hurry.
