I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Valle d'aosta

10/09/2025: If you're looking for a place to enjoy authentic Aosta Valley food, well, this is one to try... There's no written menu; you eat what's brought to you with a smile, drink good wine, and be transported straight to the local customs. Well done, Angie! Her charming, charming smile will delight your palate 100%. Okay, Michael, between the bar counter and the tables. Super prices!

10/09/2025: It's a great blessing to be able to find such a restaurant—authentic in the best sense of the word. Real people, real hospitality, and real food. A truly simple and rustic ambiance. But Angie's relaxed warmth prepares you for the consistently impeccable quality of all the food and drinks. Every course is a reminder of the qualities that "Mother's kitchen" used to have. Everything is based on regional ingredients, skillfully and unpretentiously prepared on the wood-fired stove. I've visited several Michelin-starred restaurants, but I've never left one as satisfied and completely happy as this cantina. The fact that the price to be paid for such a delightful evening in a Michelin-starred restaurant would barely cover dessert is just a footnote. Thank you for your hospitality, Angie

02/11/2025: Excellent Aosta Valley lunch. The service was excellent, fast, and attentive. The portions were generous and very tasty. The vegetable soup was excellent. The only complaint is that the restaurant is a bit dated, but that's irrelevant when you consider the excellent food at a fair price and the friendly, efficient service. Truly excellent. A trattoria from another era.

02/11/2025: A pleasant discovery on the way home. It was lunchtime, and I still hadn't found a place on the road from Gressoney to the highway where I could also park my camper. But then, in Pont St. Martin, on the road to Turin, I stumbled upon this Osteria. The place is small, seating about thirty in the main room and a little less in the adjacent marquee. The welcome is friendly, the staff helpful, and the table service is reasonably fast. The menu is deliberately limited, but the portions are more than generous. It's worth noting that they don't serve dishes, but the staff comes to the table with a tray or pan and serves them from there: just as if you were at home with friends and family. We ordered a house platter of cured meats and tomini, two herb soups (sublime), cod with polenta (very good, never had before), two desserts, two coffees, and a carafe of sparkling water, for a total of €59. I don't know if I'll ever stop by again, but if I do, I already know where to stop. Advised

05/11/2025: Enjoyed 2 meals here while in town. As close to non-tourist food than I could find in the old part of town. Service was prompt and polite. Food was creative and tasty. Wine selection was great.

01/11/2025: A large and well-maintained historic restaurant, the dining rooms are splendid. The food is good but nothing special. We were disappointed by the appetizers and polenta concia, while the rice and mushrooms were very good. The quality-price ratio is poor, as in my opinion €42 for a Valdostan cutlet is too much, as are desserts, which start at €16. The bill is steep.

15/10/2025: A beautiful refuge with a splendid view of the Monte Rosa glacier. The food isn't cheap, but it's worth it, especially for the ricotta tortelli.

04/10/2025: Beautiful agriturismo! We walked 20 minutes to the place we left the car. We went on the last day it was open, ate cheeses and cold cuts, and enjoyed an incredible view. The ice cream is delicious!

22/08/2025: Fantastic. As always, they never disappoint. Congratulations 👏

02/08/2025: Fantastic restaurant. Highly recommended

13/11/2025: Very soft and light hemp dough, top!!

04/10/2025: Excellent pizza, excellent service even though the place was full.

03/11/2025: A very special restaurant, immersed in a truly evocative mountain atmosphere. The interior is meticulously designed, with a warm and welcoming feel that evokes the atmosphere of an elegant mountain refuge. The cuisine is top-notch, with dishes always fresh and impeccably presented. Attentive service and a staff always smiling. An exclusive dining experience, perfect for those seeking quality and a touch of authenticity.

03/10/2025: A very good experience, professional service, good wines, and a generous menu offering excellent value for money! We particularly liked the tiramisu and the trout and goat cheese ravioli.

17/10/2025: High-level cuisine and cellar in the high mountains, on the slopes in winter, top view in summer, reachable on foot and/or by Chamole chairlift, it's worth it

31/08/2025: I used to come in the winter when it snowed… it's wonderful in the summer too!!!

18/11/2025: A great place to stop after a motorbike ride

14/09/2025: A very charming place where you can enjoy excellent polenta with meat sides. Highly recommended.

24/11/2025: Delicious pizza, atmosphere a bit old-fashioned, typical Italian, but friendly service and delicious pizzas 🍕.

21/10/2025: We had a great time. The pizza is cooked in a wood-fired oven...

23/11/2025: We went for lunch today, a truly excellent experience. Everything was delicious, homemade cooking as God intended. As long as trattorias like this still exist, there's hope!!

18/11/2025: First time at Ristorante Favre and we were thrilled! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, the service excellent, and the dishes were traditional Aosta Valley cuisine prepared with great care. The tongue in salsa verde deserves a special mention, truly extraordinary. An authentic and welcoming place: highly recommended!

17/09/2025: Really very good with SUPER dishes!! Super friendly staff, I will definitely go back 😁

01/09/2025: We arrived unexpectedly while passing through Aosta on a climbing trip. The owner of the establishment welcomed us with excellent service, as did the food. Congratulations.

16/11/2025: How do you sum up a place like Old Grizzly? Simply amazing! Chosen primarily for its proximity to Aymavilles Castle (about 600 meters) and the excellent reviews, I stopped in thinking I'd eat good food, but without any particular expectations. The menu, however, was much more unique and delicious than I'd imagined; it was truly difficult to choose what to try, but in the end I opted for fried porcini mushrooms with aioli sauce (fried beautifully, and the sauce was a wonderful accompaniment) and mirtuccine with fondue and berries (wonderful, a perfect combination of the softness of the cheese and the acidity of the berries). A special mention goes to the dessert. I don't think I've ever taken so long to decide what to order; everything looked excellent, but in the end I chose the deconstructed tiramisu. It's one of my favorite desserts, but I never order it because I'm always disappointed, much less dare I hear "deconstructed" (usually a prelude to pastry tragedy). However, I was won over by the excellent quality of the previous dishes. It was exceptional, beautifully and elegantly presented, excellent coffee, spectacular ladyfingers, and a rich yet delicate cream, absolutely perfect. Another positive note: they serve an amuse-bouche before starting (unfortunately, I didn't get to try it, but it looked lovely) and a small pre-dessert (mandarin and vodka sorbet, delicious and perfect for cleansing the palate, especially after fairly fatty foods), a truly pleasant surprise. The staff are kind and attentive, the atmosphere is very unique, refined, and fun, and the price is absolutely right for the quality of the meal. It's just a shame I live too far away to return often!

12/11/2025: My partner and I paid a visit to Castello di Aymavilles on the 17th of June 2023. We left the venue after 6.30 pm and walked a few hundred metres to the Old Grizzly to have a drink to quench the heat of the summer, and to decide on dinner thereafter. We were met by a waitress at the entrance. My partner asked if we could order a drink. The waitress told us the establishment is a restaurant and not a bar, and so refused to serve us. I asked again if we could just order a coffee first, and again the waitress reiterated that the establishment is a restaurant and not a bar, and turned us away. The restaurant was not full at that time (it was at 7pm thereabout) for I only saw a table of 6 in the outdoor sitting. I just wonder why the waitress could not just accommodate us, let us have our coffee and open up the opportunity for us to stay for dinner. Seriously, does a coffee take up a lot of time when the restaurant was not yet full? True, we had at that time not decided on what to eat, but we could easily had dined at the Old Grizzly. If the night was fully booked, the waitress could kindly let us know, and we would be on our way. To turn away customers abruptly, in my humble opinion, is a cardinal sin in the food and beverage industry. Perhaps it is the culture, or it could be some unbending rule that does not make sense. In reply to the owner of this establishment. If I can read Italian, I am sure I will observe your rules. Again, your "rule" is silly, but that is you of course. To further add to your blatant lie, why was there a table of 6 already seated before 7 pm when your "rules" stated service starts at 7.15 pm? What a laugh. This is in response to your claim that the six seated were your staff members having their meal before the dinner service. My memory serves me very clearly that two of the women at the table were wearing bright colored dresses, attire that is more in line with going out for a dinner at a reputable establishment than serving at one. The two of your waitresses I saw, one who turned us away at the entrance into the establishment, and the other who was serving the table of six, wore long black pants and both had similar tops. I am hard-pressed to believe that the six seated at the table were staff of the restaurant. Perhaps you can explain to me if it is customary for your staff to be drinking bottles of wine before dinner service? PSS: My memory is clear, though you may have trouble with yours. Sure, you can do whatever you wish at your own establishment, but I had caught you lying. You obviously have no shame in defending your lies, so I will simply take it that you too arrogant to humble yourself and take criticism. Your timetable is in Italian, and you clearly feel that everyone should be able to read Italian. Either make a bigger timetable which non-italian speakers can read, or train your staff what customer service is all about, and then you can start running your mouth off here. Pathetic. PSSS : There is no exaggeration on my part. I merely pointed out the irrefutable truth. Your lies are still lies, two years ago, today or ten years from now. As long as you propagate your untruths, I will call you out. Yes, liars like you will remain in my thoughts as long as you wish, if that pleases you. You not replying? I am not holding my breath. PSSSS : You lied. You said previously you had your last word, but here you are, whining again. There is no invention on my part for all that I have related is the truth, God is my witness. When did I mention that I arrived at closing time? Obviously, you have not learned to read. I accept facts, but do not expect me to accept your lies. You failed to realise that I did not make a purposeful visit to your restaurant based on this platform, though I am using this platform to expose your lies. Only losers and unrepentant liars need to resort to threats. By all means, report this post to Google, and it will not change the truth of the matter that you lied. I dare you not to respond to me.

17/09/2025: Four nights with my family, spent admiring the view from the excellent breakfast, continuing upon our return in the late afternoon to relax in the spotless and welcoming room overlooking the meticulously maintained garden. We finished with dinners at the hotel restaurant, sampling traditional and non-traditional dishes that left us speechless and with a smile on our faces. In short, we thoroughly enjoyed four days with the very friendly, helpful, and professional staff and management, and the cuisine was top-notch. Definitely a place to stay in the upper Aosta Valley, highly recommended and definitely worth returning to.

11/09/2025: I had dinner this evening with my girlfriend, everything was perfect, from the food to the service to the location. The sweet combination of Sardinia and the Aosta Valley is wonderful.

25/09/2025: Warm, Cosy Dining at Big Ben in Paquier, Aosta. We a group of 6 friends had a really enjoyable meal at Big Ben in Paquier (Aosta). The food is good—flavours are well balanced, and everything feels fresh and satisfying. What stood out most was the friendly staff; they made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived, and service was attentive without ever being rushed. The atmosphere is cosy and relaxed—perfect for a casual dinner or catching up with friends. Bonus: there’s a big parking area right in front of the restaurant, which makes arriving and leaving stress‑free

24/09/2025: Excellent pizza! Beautiful place. Amazing service.
