“ A beautiful, welcoming space on two levels, with a comfortable temperature. Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent dishes. We ordered abelase platter with traditional cheeses and cured meats, tagliatelle with wild boar ragù (good), and wild boar stew with polenta (a delight). Extensive wine list, offering a wide range of styles and prices. We booked through TheFork with a 50% discount. The price is a bit high, but the quality/price ratio is undeniable in my opinion (it's excellent, which justifies it). Parking is a short walk away (free and public). ”

“ A very nice, intimate place with stone walls... very welcoming. There's also a small room in the basement (as shown in the photo). The à la carte menu is affordable and not overpriced. The Fassona beef is excellent, both the seasoned tartare and the tagliata, but the fillet is exceptional (see photo). ”

“ We had a wonderful lunch in a uniquely charming restaurant, combining modern elements with ancient touches, located on the main street. The service was distinguished by its attentiveness and kindness, making the experience even more enjoyable. The traditional menu, with attention to detail, offers dishes made with strictly local ingredients, carefully presented and incredibly delicious. Vegetarian options are also available, such as tomino cheese with mushrooms and polenta and vegetable flan, all of excellent quality. The prices are absolutely in line with the quality offered. I recommend it without hesitation. Congratulations! ”

“ A welcoming, well-kept, and unique restaurant with stone walls and tasteful furnishings. Traditional Bergamo dishes are well-prepared. I recommend the casoncelli! The owners and staff are friendly, courteous, and helpful. ”

“ The osteria is located in Caprino Bergamasco, in the historic center, and isn't exactly easy to find. Inside, it's a historic building, tastefully renovated and kept rustic. It's a truly welcoming place to share a meal and chat, as it's not too noisy. The service is good, courteous, and helpful, and the dishes are high-quality and tasty. Minor drawbacks include the slightly high price and the difficulty finding parking nearby, although it's easily accessible. ”

- Davide Rongoni -

“ Always an excellent dinner at this beautiful restaurant in the center of Caprino Bergamasco. Both the food and wine are excellent, as is the service from both the wait staff and the owner. Prices are average. ”
