Osteria Delle Aie — Restaurant in Castagnito

My recent visit to Osteria Delle Aie was an absolute delight, offering a cozy and inviting atmosphere that made the dining experience truly special. The fixed multi-course menu is a brilliant concept, providing a variety of dishes to suit all preferences, including well-thought-out vegetarian options. Each course was fresh, flavorful, and presented with excellence, showcasing the best of regional cuisine.

The highlight of Osteria Delle Aie, however, is their extraordinary approach to wine service. Serving wine by the glass from magnums, which are passed from table to table, allows guests to taste and choose according to their liking – an innovative idea that is both fun and inclusive, especially as it's included in the menu price. The warm hospitality and professional service further elevate the experience, making me feel welcomed and well cared for. I highly recommend Osteria Delle Aie to anyone seeking a memorable dining experience in a friendly and...

95euro for 2 people. We ordered the mixed starters for 2 people, 1 pasta (primo piatto) , 1 main meat dish (secondo piatto), 1 sparkling water and all you can drink system wine. We did not order any dessert. It’s a lovely outside open air garden setting with cute illumination. It was like a wedding party setting. There was no table cloth but also the table setting was a lovely French style arrangement. I loved the plates and the decor. Reservation is necessary and make the reservation call when the restaurant is not busy otherwise they don’t answer the phone as the most of the waiters works in the garden. The most of customers are foreigners travellers: many Germans and French people and some of them are big groups (very loud after drinking some wine). Very unique restaurant and setting. As an architect my self, I really love the concept and the setting design. All waitress were such smily and professional for this kind of...

Frankly, I’m writing this review to try to help anyone who decides to go to this restaurant. Starting with the food, it’s not bad but also not excellent. The reason for the 1 star is the way they act. There is no menu and nobody explains you how it works and what are the prices. They start offering you an ‘aperitivo’ and they say it is a fixed menu with the wine included. They start to present you orally the list of each course and it is a lot of food. At the end you figure out that you don’t need to pick up everything, depending on what you get you pay a different price. For me I was thinking I was paying anyway for everything so decided to taste all the courses, but definitely would not be my choice. It is important to say that it is not a typical Piemontese food, just normal restaurant dishes. At the end it was €65 per person with all the courses but I am not sure for what I paid for. I hope this...
