I visited Il trillo few days before Christmas for having a quiet dinner. As soon as we entered the restaurant we were really surprised. It looked really nice. The waitress walked us to our table which was in the garden. The garden is even more beautiful with a romantic atmosphere. We ordered some mortadella with tartufo which I really raccomand as it was really tasty and particular. It was really appreciated by my boyfriend and me. As starter I ordered the poached egg, truffle, violet cabbage and home made hollandaise sauce. Honestly I wasn’t crazy about that but it is just my personal taste. As main, I ordered Pappardelle pasta with wild boar ragout. They were delicious and super tasty. I totally raccomand that dish. My boyfriend ordered smoked Angus beef carpaccio and veal loin, braised escarole and mandarin puree. Both dishes were good! Overall my feedback is really positive, first of all for the quality of the food and for the atmosphere/location of the restaurant. Moreover all the team members were friendly and professional. The only negative point I could see is the service was a bit slow, however, we were not in a rush so we enjoyed our quiet dinner with good glass of wine while we where waiting...

To kick off your meal, I highly recommend starting with the mortadella and the delightful bread box that accompanies it. It's a perfect introduction to the culinary delights that await you. For the main course, you can't go wrong with either the wild boar or the rabbit ragu; both are rich in flavor and expertly prepared.
And don’t dare skip dessert! Their homemade limoncello, crafted from a cherished family recipe, is the ideal way to finish off your meal. It’s refreshingly delicious and truly a testament to the love and care that goes into every dish.
The atmosphere at Altillo is fantastic—vibrant and welcoming, making it a great spot for family gatherings or a cozy dinner date. Plus, having this gem right on our doorstep in Chelsea is a true blessing. I can't recommend Altillo Chelsea enough; it’s a culinary experience that you won’t...
Read moreWe stumbled across Il Trillo in Chelsea and had a fantastic experience! Not only was the food delicious, but the restaurant is also dog-friendly, which was a huge plus for me.
The chefs prepared each dish with care and my waitress Maria was incredibly friendly and accommodating throughout the meal. On my way to the restroom, I met one of the chefs (a European gentleman - Alan?) and he was so friendly and we had a great discussion about the menu and restaurant. It was so refreshing to see that this level of customer service still exists!
I only wish I took more photos of the food but it was so delicious I ate it before I could! We had the home made pastas as a starter and my main was a beef filet which was cooked to perfection! The duck was delicious and home made bread was amazing!
What truly set Il Trillo apart for me however, was the fantastic wine menu and of course the exceptional service provided. I am really looking forward to...
