I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Pavia

03/01/2026: A charming, traditional café. Delicious coffee, paninis, and toast.

26/09/2025: Delicious ice cream! The owners are incredibly kind!

17/02/2026: On a business trip to Reggio Emilia, we stopped for lunch at this beautiful place, which we found online by chance. Friendly staff, excellent food, and a reasonable price, highly recommended.

25/01/2026: Fantastic, relaxing restaurant! Simple, traditional yet carefully prepared dishes in a pleasant, relaxing atmosphere.

29/12/2025: I wasn't familiar with the place, and yesterday, at a friend's suggestion, I had the chance to discover it. It's a family-friendly place, with fast service and a view of the Po River. Excellent food, without spending a fortune. I'll be back.

20/12/2025: Unique location! Impeccable service. Alberto and Johnny always make you feel at home! Excellent raw ingredients, expertly cooked! Highly recommended!

08/03/2026: Castello di San Gaudenzio offers an impeccable experience where excellent cuisine meets a warm welcome that makes you feel right at home. A perfect blend of historic elegance and authentic hospitality.

08/03/2026: The place is as beautiful as the service is inadequate. We booked for a peaceful weekend not far from home, in March. The place is objectively very beautiful; the rooms have undergone a partial renovation with some small things still to be fixed, but the atmosphere is pleasant. Some staff members (the breakfast manager and the bartender) greatly compensate for the shortcomings of others. We arrive and, while being shown to the room, we mention that it's extremely hot. The staff notices, too. They tell us we need to adjust the thermostat. We turn off everything, including the bathroom heater, and open the windows, which we close in the evening. At 2:00 in the morning, we're up with the windows wide open. The front desk tells us that we should have called them at 2:00 to change rooms because the heating pump passes above our room. Ah, that's what the constant noise was that accompanied us the whole time. Anyway, we fell asleep at 3:00, and at 6:00 we were woken by the sounds of the breakfast room—dishes and chatter. A wall separated us from the breakfast room. That would have been enough. Anyway, we asked for bathrobes for the pool and were told they weren't there, and that we could change there or bring our shower towel from the room, and we'd find pool towels there. Note: We would have also paid the deposit if necessary. Anyway, our neighbors were wearing bathrobes, and even reception has a bathrobe on display. Having said all this, because I'm against writing reviews without giving the opportunity to discuss them, there was no remedial action, other than telling us, as mentioned, that we had to ask to change rooms again that night, since they weren't full. It's a shame, because a pet-friendly place with proper gluten-free management has so much potential, but the guest's rest and service need to be reworked. We won't be returning, nor will we recommend it to friends.

05/03/2026: A perfect place for lunch. Great food, friendly service. A real gem!

05/03/2026: This place was a pleasant surprise! A youthful, alternative restaurant that fits into a niche in the city center, piquing the curiosity of its patrons. This curiosity is certainly rewarded by the unique selection of dishes and their deliciousness, which, combined with the very competitive prices, place ALVOLO PANINI E CUCINA among the original and intriguing gems of Pavia!

17/03/2026: The "La Frottola" pub in Vigevano is a fantastic venue that combines a welcoming and lively atmosphere with excellent cuisine. The venue stands out for its warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for both an evening with friends and a more intimate dinner. The decor is meticulously crafted, with a medieval touch that creates a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere. The pub's cuisine is top-notch, with dishes prepared with fresh, quality ingredients, ranging from traditional specialties to creative and original dishes. Each course is a taste experience, thanks to a masterful combination of flavors and meticulous presentation. The staff is one of the venue's strengths: friendly, attentive, and professional, they make every customer feel special, offering impeccable service and expertly recommending the best choices from the menu and the wine and craft beer lists. In short, "La Frottola" in Vigevano is the ideal place for those seeking a quality culinary experience in a pleasant setting, with service that truly makes the difference.

16/03/2026: SATURDAY DINNER - There were seven of us, and we ate main courses, side dishes, and desserts; everything was excellent, so much so that some of us who had stayed in Vigevano returned the next day for lunch. A highly recommended experience. SUNDAY LUNCH - We had already been for dinner the night before and returned to try the first courses as well: very good; we also shared an appetizer platter and then had dessert (the apple sorbet wasn't to my liking because it was too cold, so they gave me another dessert instead, an excellent crème brûlée. They clearly handled a small point of dissatisfaction well, which ultimately proved insignificant compared to the other excellent courses). At the end, they offered us a "beer vermouth" we hadn't even heard of. Well done! We plan to be back in Vigevano in April and will be back to try other courses.

01/02/2026: Large, clean rooms with complimentary toiletries in the bathroom. Abundant, high-quality breakfast. We also had dinner, which was truly excellent. Friendly and helpful staff.

16/11/2025: Well done, very kind and professional. The family atmosphere of the people who work there. I've known the owner, Stefano Milanesi, for a while now, and I can only say that his dinner is superb, from appetizers to dessert. And what can I say about his delicious, handcrafted wine? Excellent ingredients, which are in turn cooked magnificently. I can only say: Highly Recommended.

14/03/2026: Incredible experience, authentic flavors.

08/03/2026: A lovely little place, quiet and informal. The entire staff was extremely kind and friendly, despite the crazy table. The appetizers were excellent and generous portions, and the meat-based main courses were truly delicious and perfectly cooked. The dessert I chose, Strachin gelad, was delicious; I could have eaten more. Perhaps a little pricey, but I had a great time nonetheless. The final touch was the owner's guitar, which cheered us up before we left.

14/03/2026: Mountain trattoria, simple but always good peasant cuisine, fast service, super reasonable prices, highly recommended for a Sunday lunch outing

14/03/2026: Terrible experience never to be repeated, terrible food, very rude waiters, exorbitant prices, I strongly advise against it.

26/02/2026: I stayed at this inn because I was passing through. The price was excellent, with convenient check-in and check-out times for a single room with a private bathroom and separate entrance. Pets are allowed, and there was a convenient parking space. The property I stayed in is on a separate street from the check-in/bar/restaurant area. The building was a two-story building with rooms on the corridor, for a total of about twenty rooms, mostly used by workers. The room had a power outlet near the bed, a TV, a wardrobe, a table, and a hairdryer—in short, everything, despite the space. The included breakfast was excellent.

13/02/2026: I had dinner here... everything was good. The waiters and staff were very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was quiet but a little chilly. Prices were high.

08/03/2026: Excellent in every way. Delicious food, generous portions, extremely friendly service, a welcoming atmosphere, and a great location in Borgo Ticino.

05/03/2026: Delicious. Worth it, great quality and good price.

19/12/2025: It was so delicious! The wine glass was absolutely gorgeous. The first time I drank from it, my drinking speed was slowed down because I was afraid of breaking the stem.

30/11/2025: Impeccable experience! I've been to this restaurant and was truly thrilled. The atmosphere is welcoming and meticulously maintained, the staff is friendly and attentive, without ever being intrusive. The dishes are prepared with fresh, quality ingredients: each course was a discovery, beautifully presented and full of flavor.

08/03/2026: Excellent cuisine. Very kind and knowledgeable staff.

16/02/2026: A very intimate, quiet, and refined venue!! Congratulations!

15/02/2026: I visited this delightful restaurant with my family. We had a divine meal, the service was excellent (especially the Sicilian waiter), and the price was in line with the quality. I will definitely be back.

25/01/2026: A seafood trattoria, I'd call it that. But nothing special, nothing special, standard dishes (they all taste the same). Packaged breadsticks and supermarket bread. I honestly didn't like it, and the prices were on the high side for the quality.

18/12/2025: Very nice place. Professional and fast staff. Good food, talented chef. Prices are commensurate with the place. Reservations are required...but online reservations are of little use. It's better to call. Be careful if you go alone; you risk dining on a perch in front of the bar, rather than at a table; in my opinion, this is a serious disservice to the customer. Recommended? Yes...if you're sure of a seated place.

16/12/2025: 10:45, half the tables empty. Two of us ask if we can sit down for a quick coffee and are told that absolutely not possible because they have to start preparing for lunch. How insensitive!! I asked twice and the answer was always the same. I asked the other waiter and he shrugged. But can you turn away customers (regulars, by the way) at 10:45 because you have to prepare the tables for lunch? Well, customers who won't be coming back, congratulations.
