Superb view! Amazing food and services. I’ve ordered something not in the menu and they tried to satisfy our wish.
We visited this restaurant for the second time during a short family holiday at the beginning of September. This allows me to modify my previous review based on the food tasting. The pizza is delicious, with perfect dough, excellent toppings and seasoning. The staff are very efficient and discreet. I like that you can pay at the cashier on your way out. The biggest advantage of this restaurant is the view from the terrace. The view is worth every penny. :)
Fantastic view! Lovely food! Friendly service! It feels like a real family restaurant... but on top of a mountain! Get the #1 bus from the airport or rail station to Citta Alta (Upper Town). Choose a one way ticket to include funicular (about E3 from airport). Get off at terminus and get funicular railway to top. Two restaurants - choose this one.
WOW. A must visit restaurant. A lovely walk up a long cobbled hill. The menu had changed and I couldn't see a vegan opinion. The waitress asked the kitchen and they made me a vegetable ragu with tagliatelle. It was excellent. The view from the open patio door was spectacular. Waiter service was attentive but not overpowering. A really nice, relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend.
Incredible food, great service and beautiful view for the sunset. The garden is a gorgeous place to sit. Good prices for the food, high Coperto.
Wonderful and down to earth restaurant with the most stunning view over Bergamo and surrounding hills. We had a mix of Italian primis and pizzas with local wine.
One of the best views ever. Overseeing the whole of Bergamo and the amazing hills and mountains. The food was delicious. It is a mix of local Bergamaschi dishes like rabbit stew with polenta, and lovely tuna stake , they were kind enough to arrange a big table for us that would still come with a view and keep it as we were late due to traffic. The tiramisù was perfect and they have a very good variety of vines. It is a busy place and i reccomend you book and come on time.
An excellent restaurant with the most incredible views! Food was very good, staff were welcoming and friendly, cant recommend enough
