The Top 100 Places to Eat Near Augurio
-
Rank 1. Augurio
Contemporary Italian
An old vaulted ceiling and a live kitchen on the ground floor set the tone at this family-run restaurant in central Trento, where the cooking lands somewhere between the Trentino hills and a quietly modern sensibility. Lunch runs lighter; the full menu rewards a bit of planning ahead. The room manages to feel historic and unfussy at once, which is harder than it sounds.
-
Rank 2. Osteria Il Cappello
Italian
-
Rank 3. Il Sommelier
Contemporary Italian
A tucked-away contemporary Italian restaurant near Palazzo Roccabruna, where the focus lands squarely on fish and seafood given modern treatment without abandoning the classics. The dining room was designed by the owners' father, which makes the whole sibling operation feel like a genuine family project rather than a concept. Raw fish dishes sit alongside something like a mango cheesecake, and somehow neither feels out of place.
-
A Neapolitan pizzeria that landed in Trento and apparently never left, Bella 'mbriana turns out the high, pillowy, charred-edged crust that people from Naples will either nod at or argue about. The dough is airy, the toppings are fresh, and the menu runs from straightforward classics to combinations that require slightly more explaining. The room is warm, the staff is attentive, and a table on a Friday night requires a reservation made earlier than you'd think.
-
-
Rank 6. Scrigno del Duomo
Regional Italian
-
Rank 7. Osteria a "Le Due Spade"
Alpine Italian
The dark wood and low ceilings of the dining room put you somewhere between a mountain hut and a serious osteria, which is more or less what Le Due Spade is. It has been around forever, feeding Trento since the Council of Trent era, and the kitchen still leans into Alpine Italian cooking: char, strudel, risotto, local produce handled with enough imagination that it never feels like a museum of regional food.
-
A pizza place steps from Trento's Duomo where the dough is the obvious point of pride, slow-fermented until it's soft through the middle and just crisp enough at the edge that you notice the difference. The room is small and warm, and the team runs it like they mean it. Toppings lean simple, which lets the ingredients do the talking. The "suspended pizza" initiative, where customers pay for a slice someone else will claim, is a nice thing to know about.
-
Rank 9. Locanda Margon
Contemporary Italian
The dining room looks out over Trento and the Adige Valley, which makes a persuasive case before the food arrives. This is a Michelin-starred fine dining restaurant built around three tasting menus, one designed specifically to move alongside Ferrari spumante, the sparkling wine produced on the same estate. Local Trentino ingredients anchor the cooking, though the kitchen pulls in ideas from elsewhere whenever it suits them.
-
Rank 10. Cocceria Alla Stella
Clay pot Pizza
The signature move here is pizza baked and served in a clay pot, which keeps everything molten and fragrant down to the final slice. This is a no-frills pizzeria in a small Trentino village, the kind that locals use as a benchmark rather than a destination. The dough is light, the crust blistered, and the toppings do not feel diluted by the cooking. Exactly the sort of place where nobody needs the menu after the second visit.
-
Rank 11. Osteria Ca' Dei Giosi
Italian
A basket of polenta taragna and salami arrives before you've even opened the menu, which tells you everything about how this trattoria in the Trentino hills operates. The kitchen leans into the region with carne salada, marinated trout, and housemade pasta, and the rabbit with polenta has a way of making you forget you ordered anything else. Portions are generous, the wine list is well chosen, and the whole thing costs less than you'd expect.
-
A young couple who cut their teeth at a well-regarded Alpine restaurant have opened their own place in Pergine, and the cooking leans into that same mountain-meets-modern register. The dining room feels deliberately contemporary, and the kitchen runs three tasting menus of different lengths, with dishes available à la carte from each. Expect creative, playful plates that treat Alpine ingredients as a starting point rather than a constraint.
-
Rank 13. Le Tre Colombe
Modern Italian
An old stone farmhouse tucked into a tiny hamlet in the Cembra valley, Le Tre Colombe runs a single monthly tasting menu in softly lit dining rooms that feel genuinely like someone's home. The chef leans into the region's seasonal pantry and gives it a modern turn, so the cooking feels rooted and restless at once. Shorter menu options are available for those who want dinner without a commitment.
-
Rank 14. Vecchia Sorni
Contemporary Italian
-
Rank 15. Boivin
Regional Italian
Trout with celeriac purée prepared tataki-style is the dish that signals what kind of restaurant this is: a regional Trentino kitchen that quietly borrows from Korea and Japan without making a fuss about it. The menu shifts with the market, so the specials board does the most interesting work on any given night. Regional wines anchor the list. The Michelin Guide has given it a Bib Gourmand, which tracks for a place this personal and unfussy.

A pizza restaurant in the Trentino hills where the dough gets a long, slow ferment and comes out of the oven with that blistered, airy crust that people tend to argue about. Toppings lean on local sourcing, and the craft beer list tilts toward nearby microbreweries, which is the right call in this part of Italy. The room manages to feel both contemporary and mountain-lodge without sliding into kitsch. 50 Top Pizza lists it among Italy's excellent pizzerias.
-
A medieval castle jutting into its own lake is an unusual home for a restaurant, yet here we are. The kitchen runs tasting menus and a broad à la carte of modern meat and fish dishes, the local Vino Santo pours with dinner, and in summer the terrace over the water fills up fast enough that a reservation is less optional than it sounds. The adjacent bar and castle tours round out what is a quietly theatrical evening.
-
A centuries-old wood-paneled stube inside the Biohotel Hermitage, set far enough from the lifts that you feel like you've been let in on something. This Michelin-starred fine dining room runs three tasting menus, one of which follows the chef's Ischian roots straight to the Dolomites, landing seafood in the middle of mountain country. The room seats very few people, which means the evening moves at whatever pace it wants.
-
A Michelin-starred gourmet restaurant near Lake Garda where the chef designed details of the dining room himself, which tells you something about how seriously he takes the whole picture. Modern Trentino cooking drifts between nikkei influences and Mediterranean ideas, with occasional riffs inspired by the poet D'Annunzio, which is a specific kind of ambition. Guests start with aperitifs on sofas before sitting down, and the sommelier is the kind who makes the wine list feel like a conversation.
-
Rank 20. Dolomieu
Modern Italian
-
Rank 21. Il Gallo Cedrone
Alpine Italian
A one-Michelin-star dining room inside Hotel Bertelli, with wood and warm light doing the heavy lifting on alpine atmosphere. The kitchen runs two tasting menus, one rooted in the Trentino mountains and one that drifts toward the coast, with à la carte if you'd rather graze. The wine cellar clears 800 labels, curated with the kind of care that suggests the sommelier has strong opinions and enjoys sharing them.
-
Rank 22. Grual
Contemporary Italian
The Grual mountain that rises behind the hotel gives this Michelin-starred fine dining room its name and its organizing logic. Chef Matteo Maezza structures his tasting menus around the altitude where each ingredient was sourced, valley floor to high peak, so the meal traces a kind of vertical map of the surrounding Dolomites. Candlelight, a serious wine list, and guests in their resort best complete the picture.
-
Rank 23. Hosteria Toblino
Regional Italian
-
The road up to La Tana Gourmet is all hairpin bends through the Asiago plateau, which sets the tone for a tasting menu that doesn't go where you expect either. This is a one-star Michelin dining room with no à la carte, no salt, no sugar, and no small talk: the chef comes to your table and walks you through every dish personally. The drinks pairings are as unconventional as the food, which is saying something.
-
The floor of a seventeenth-century mill creaks underfoot as you settle in, which sets the mood for what Alessandro Gilmozzi is doing in Cavalese. This is a Michelin-starred tasting-menu restaurant where alpine foraging is taken seriously: lichens, barks, resins, and local herbs appear alongside game and freshwater fish, with smoking techniques that suggest the kitchen is part apothecary. The mountains outside aren't scenery here; they're the menu.
-
Rank 26. Casa del Vino della Vallagarina
Regional Italian
A seventeenth-century palazzo in a small Trentino hill town, with mountain views on clear days and a cellar stocked with nearly every producer in the Vallagarina valley. The daily tasting menu shifts with the season and the kitchen garden, though you can pick just a few courses if commitment feels like too much. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the kind of regional wine list that makes ordering by the glass a long and pleasant exercise.
-
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the lake so completely that arriving before dark feels less like advice and more like a rule. This Michelin-starred fine dining room inside the EALA hotel runs on two tasting menus, structured but open to à la carte choices, with freshwater fish pulling a lot of the weight. The chef's instinct leans minimal without being austere, letting the ingredients make the argument so the plate doesn't have to.
-
A wisteria-shaded pergola on a farmhouse overlooking the Sarca valley sets the scene at this alpine trattoria in Drena. The kitchen runs on genuine regionalism: carne salada cured in-house, char from local waters, Trentino mushrooms, and red berries and chestnuts grown on the family's own land. It reads like a larder tour, except someone actually cooks it all with care.
-
Rank 29. Locanda delle Tre Chiavi
Regional Italian
-
Rank 30. Maso Palù
Alpine Italian
-
Rank 31. Locanda 53 Supper Club
Creative Italian
Three tables on the second floor of a building in Arco's old centre, where a couple has turned their travels into a supper club that seats a handful of people per night. Dinner runs as a tasting menu, either meat or fish, and the cooking pulls from the Trentino, the rest of Italy, and wherever else caught their interest on the road. Intimate enough that it genuinely feels like someone's home, which is either charming or slightly nerve-wracking depending on your personality.
-
A winding mountain road leads to a converted hay barn with four tables, a floor-to-ceiling window overlooking the valley, and a Michelin star. The entrance runs through the old stables, which sets the tone nicely. This is a small, intimate creative restaurant where the chef draws on regional Veneto flavors with evident personal investment. Leave early; the uphill road does not reward impatience.
-
Rank 33. Porca Vacca
Pizza
A pizza spot in Dro where the covered veranda fills up fast and the garden takes over in summer. The dough gets a long, slow rise, which gives the crust that slightly blistered, fragrant quality worth noticing. The menu runs from straightforward marinara to more composed pies built around Southern Italian flavors. Grilled dishes round things out for anyone at the table who's made other plans.
-
-
-
Rank 36. Aqua
Contemporary Italian
The veranda dining room faces Lake Garda so squarely that the sailboats and the Trentino peaks feel like deliberate decor. This contemporary Italian restaurant on the lungolago keeps the cooking straightforward enough to let local ingredients carry the weight, with lake fish getting the most prominent run of the menu. Saltwater fish appears too, and the wine list is solid. The Ora wind does its thing outside; inside, it's calm and almost Milan-sleek.
-
Rank 37. La Terrazza
Seafood
The panoramic veranda hangs over the Torbole lakefront, which makes the lake-fish focus feel less like a concept and more like the obvious thing to do. This is a small, polished restaurant where the cooking leans on freshwater catches and local produce, with a tasting menu built around the lake and an à la carte that lets the land and garden join in. The spaghetti with freshwater prawns, ginger, and lime has a following.
-
Rank 38. Vincenzo Degasperi
Contemporary Italian
A wine-bar tucked inside a hotel on the main square in Neumarkt, where the list leans hard into Italian producers and most things worth trying are available by the glass. The chef runs the room with the kind of unhurried attention that makes you feel like the only table, and the kitchen keeps it Mediterranean and seasonal without making a fuss about it. Good stop if you want serious wine with food that keeps pace.
-
An old farm with a hay barn in the South Tyrolean hills, converted into a cozy inn with a menu split right down the middle: traditional dishes on the left, modern and creative on the right. A mother and son run the kitchen together, each cooking in their own distinct way, and the menu names the producers behind most of what arrives at the table. Ordering from both sides is the obvious move, and apparently inspectors agreed.
-
Foraged Mugo pine shoots and lichen on the menu signals immediately that this is not a hotel dining room trying to please everyone. Set inside the Lory hotel in Pinzolo, Rendenèr is a casual contemporary restaurant where the kitchen follows the Alpine seasons hard, pulling sow-thistle in spring and herbs from its own organic garden in summer. The wine list leans regional, which, given the surroundings, is exactly the right call.
-
-
A family-run trattoria in the Val di Non that has been feeding the same regulars for generations, Nerina keeps things unshowy: regional cheeses, house-cured salami, and whatever the kitchen garden is yielding. The cooking leans on Trentino staples with the occasional nod to the rest of Italy, and the Di Nuzzo family have turned genuine hospitality into a kind of house specialty. The Michelin Guide awards it a Bib Gourmand.
-
A historic building on the South Tyrolean wine road, with a garden romantic enough to make you forget the menu is short. This is a regional restaurant where the chef leans into local ingredients, venison and Termeno asparagus alongside house-cured speck, with a few fish dishes rounding things out. Everything has a modern, considered feel without straining for it. Guestrooms are available if the wine list makes leaving seem like a poor decision.
-
-
A Michelin-starred restaurant tucked into a small alleyway above Malcesine's old town, where the garden opens onto olive trees and a sweep of Lake Garda. The chef has been cooking in this corner of the Veneto long enough that the regulars call his dishes by name, and two tasting menus let him have it both ways, one for new ideas and one for the classics he can't shake. À la carte is also on the table, literally.
-

Rank 47. Frosch Restaurant
Contemporary Italian
-
Rank 48. Maso Burba
Alpine Italian
-
Rank 49. Osteria Europa
Venetian
-
Rank 50. Osteria della Tana
Venetian
The red house at Kaberlaba holds two restaurants, and this is the more relaxed one, where the kitchen turns toward Veneto classics like baccalà alla vicentina and tripe. It shares a roof with a Michelin-starred sibling, so the odd crossover dish appears on the menu. The carbonara, made with local ingredients, has developed its own following. An osteria in the old sense: proper food, full flavors, no need to dress up.
-
Rank 51. Zur Rose
Alto Adige Italian
The dining room dates to the 14th century, and the name above the door has been there since before anyone's great-great-grandmother was born. Zur Rose is a fine-dining restaurant on the South Tyrolean Wine Road, where the kitchen, now a father-and-son operation, runs a seasonal tasting menu rooted in Alto Adige tradition. A vegetarian menu runs alongside it. One Michelin star.
-
Rank 52. Osteria Acquarol
Alpine Italian
A one-Michelin-star osteria on a pedestrianized street in the South Tyrol, with a spare, almost bare interior and a few outdoor tables when the season allows. The kitchen gardens behind the restaurant drive the menus, and the Alpine herbs and vegetables grown there show up in modern tasting menus that read like a quiet argument for the region. Chef Alessandro Bellingeri is from Cremona, which makes his obvious devotion to Trentino all the more pointed.
-
Rank 53. Antica Osteria
Regional Italian
A family-run osteria tucked into a pretty Alpine village where two valleys meet and the Presanella mountains loom above. Three small dining rooms carry a genuine mountain feel, and a veranda with floor-to-ceiling windows lets the landscape do its thing. The kitchen leans into the region, turning local char and venison into something more considered than the surroundings might suggest, without ever losing the thread back to traditional recipes.
-
Rank 54. Locanda Alpina
Regional Italian
Nested in the Val di Non among apple orchards and castle silhouettes, this family-run locanda in a handsome old village building has been cooking regional Trentino food for what feels like forever. The menu follows the seasons closely, white asparagus and venison turning up when they should, with the occasional nod to broader Italian cooking. The pistachio ice cream has become something of a local legend, apparently.
-
Rank 55. Osteria Platzegg
Alto Adige Italian
A gasthaus tucked into the pedestrianized center of San Michele, where the wine list is all Alto Adige, the cooking leans on regional recipes, and gorgonzola sauce somehow ends up on arancini without anyone blinking. Herbert Hintner is considered the defining name in this corner of Italian cuisine, and the room reflects that confidence: simple, contemporary, and unfussy. The Michelin Guide awards it a Bib Gourmand.
-
The wagyu on the menu comes from Monte Baldo, just up the road, which tells you most of what you need to know about the kitchen's logic here. A Michelin-starred tasting menu restaurant inside Hotel Belfiore, NIN offers two menus alternating between meat and lake fish, with vegetables from the property's own farm. Book a veranda table for the Lake Garda view, then let the theatrical, locally-obsessed plates do their thing.
-
Rank 57. Alle Ciaspole
Alpine Italian
A timber Alpine house in the Val di Non, where a husband-and-wife team has been running a regional restaurant for what feels like forever. She works the room with the ease of someone who actually likes people; he cooks local beef, char, game, and cheese with the quiet precision of a man who has made these dishes a thousand times and isn't bored yet. A few fish dishes and seasonal additions from beyond the valley round things out.
-
A Michelin-starred dining room inside the Engel resort in the Dolomites, where wood, stone, and local materials give the space a warmth that doesn't feel designed to death. The chef's table doubles as a spot for aperitifs served by the chef personally, which sets the tone: attentive without being stiff. The kitchen leans into alpine ingredients and seasonal vegetables with enough technique to make the restraint feel intentional. The sommelier knows the regional wine list cold.
-
A steep, winding road leads to this family-run restaurant in the Veneto hills, which holds a Michelin star and has been in the same hands for generations. The dining room has a fireplace and the kind of unhurried warmth that makes you forget you need to get home. The kitchen leans into the region hard, particularly in winter when game and mushrooms take over the menu. The wine list runs deep into organic and biodynamic bottles.
-
Rank 60. CUORE – Luca Brancati
Neapolitan Pizza
Three dough styles under one roof: the classic Neapolitan round with a high puffed crust, Roman tray pizza sliced thin, and the house "Fa Crock," crispy outside and pillowy within. This is a serious pizza shop in a small Veneto town, run by a Campanian heart, so the fried starters, montanare, supplì, and mozzarella in carrozza, arrive as family tradition rather than afterthought. Toppings roam from Venetian asparagus to Calabrian 'nduja. The beer list comes with pairing notes, which few pizza places bother.
-
A glass-walled Alpine dining room suspended above Moena with the whole Val di Fassa spread out below you, which does raise the question of how much attention you'll pay to the plate. The answer is quite a lot, since this Michelin-starred restaurant trades in creative, territory-rooted cuisine that quietly outpaces its postcard setting. The wine list leans into local terroir with some care. An old mountain dairy it once was; the only remnant now is the name.
-
Rank 62. Vögele
Regional Austrian
-
Rank 63. Marechiaro
Seafood
A seafood restaurant in landlocked Bolzano run by two brothers from Naples, which explains both the Campanian lilt to the menu and the wood-fired pizza available come evening. The room goes candlelit and romantic after dark, but the daily spread of raw fish is the main event regardless of hour. Classic Italian maritime cooking, Mediterranean sourced, clean flavors, no fussiness about it.
-
Rank 64. Foresta
Regional Italian
-
Dinner at this two-Michelin-star restaurant inside one of Lake Garda's grand historic villas starts with an aperitif in the garden, the lake catching the last light before you move inside to a single elaborate tasting menu. Vegetables are the quiet obsession here, lifted with aromatic herbs and the occasional exotic turn, while lake fish and meat fill the gaps. The wine list leans Italian, with Champagne given a generous second chair.
-
Rank 66. 13 Comuni
Regional Italian
-
Rank 67. Apollonia
Regional Italian
The road up to this family-run trattoria winds through vines and orchards before hitting woodland at 900 meters, where the Dolomites spread out below like a postcard nobody bothered to send you. Three generations of the Geiser family have been feeding the valley on seasonal Alto Adige cooking, potato rösti, baked pumpkin, porcini cream, homemade tarts. The Michelin Guide awards it a Bib Gourmand, which tracks for a place this quietly sure of itself.
-
-
Rank 69. Zur Kaiserkron
Modern Mediterranean
Vaulted ceilings inside a grand old palazzo on Bolzano's main piazza set the stage for a restaurant that runs two distinct modes under one roof. Lunch leans casual and regional, riffing on South Tyrolean flavors with a lighter touch, while the gilded back dining room is where the chef gets serious, offering a full gastronomic tasting experience. Dressing up is not required, but the gilded room will make you wish you had.
-
Rank 70. Alla Fassa
Italian Contemporary Seafood
A cycle path is all that stands between the terrace and Lake Garda, which means a warm evening here involves a quiet negotiation for the outdoor tables. This is a lakeside restaurant leaning heavily into fish, split between local catch from the water you're practically sitting in and seafood from the coast. The kitchen balances the classic and the contemporary without making a fuss about it. A handful of guestrooms upstairs, all with lake views, if you'd rather not leave.
-
Rank 71. La Favellina
Contemporary Italian
The winding drive up into the Lessini hills is part of the deal at this family-run, Michelin-starred restaurant tucked into the Veneto countryside. A mother handles the pasta from the kitchen while her sons run the rest of the show, front and back, which gives the whole evening a warmth that's hard to manufacture. The cooking ranges widely across Italian ingredients with the occasional unexpected pairing thrown in for good measure.
-
The Liberty-style dining room inside Parkhotel Laurin turns lunch into a minor occasion, and the garden tables under old trees make summer in Bolzano feel earned. The cooking is rooted in Italian tradition with detours into modern technique, so you'll find local South Tyrolean specialities alongside dishes that borrow ideas from further afield. Jacket optional, but the room will make you wish you'd tried a little harder.
-
Rank 73. Loewengrube
Modern Alpine Italian
-
Rank 74. Eggentaler
Steakhouse
The charcoal grill has been the main attraction at this old-school South Tyrolean restaurant since long before anyone eating there was born. The Schmieder family has run it for decades, and the smoke-kissed meats are still the reason to come, though the kitchen also moves through Italian seafood and land dishes with quiet confidence. A family member curates the wine list personally, which shows. It sits just off the Bolzano highway, convenient in the way that only truly committed restaurants can be.
-
A Neapolitan pizza spot tucked under the arcades of Piazza Vittoria, where the high-rimmed crust gets a long, slow rise before it ever sees a flame. The room is tidier than you'd expect from a place this warm, and the family running it treats regulars and first-timers with the same unhurried attention. Dogs are welcome, and the outdoor tables under the arcade are a fine reason to linger over a seasonal pie longer than you planned.
-
Rank 76. Piccerè
Neapolitan Pizza
A Neapolitan pizza spot a short walk from the Bolzano train station, decorated in blues that have clearly committed to a maritime theme despite being about as far from the sea as Italy allows. The high-crusted pies are made with quality ingredients, and the fried Neapolitan sides have their own following. There's a garden out back for anyone who prefers to eat al fresco, dogs included.
-
Rank 77. La Tortuga
Contemporary Italian
Lake Garda sits just outside, and the kitchen makes that count, pulling from its waters for a menu that moves between regional tradition and something more considered. La Tortuga is a small, romantic fine dining room on Gargnano's main street, with a Michelin star and a wine list that rewards the curious. The host runs the floor with the warmth of someone who actually knows the cellar, which on a good night is most of the reason to stay for another glass.
-
Rank 78. Ostaria Tyrol
Regional Italian
-
Rank 79. La Rosina
Venetian
-
Rank 80. Agritur El Mas
Alpine Italian
The cows, horses, and pigs outside are not decorative; they end up on the plate, as charcuterie, braised stews, and cheese dumplings made with the farm's own production. This agriturismo above Moena is the working-farm-restaurant in full Alpine earnest, with antique wood furnishings and a brazier anchoring the dining room. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand, which tracks for a place this straightforwardly good at what it does.
-
Rank 81. Antica Locanda al Cervo - Landgasthof zum Hirschen
South Tyrol Italian
Five generations of women have kept this inn on the Altopiano del Salto plateau running, which gives the kitchen a confidence that no restaurant group can manufacture. It's a traditional South Tyrolean trattoria, the kind where home-produced ingredients and generous portions are the whole argument. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and you can borrow a Haflinger horse afterward, which is not something many restaurants can offer.
-
Rank 82. Osteria Madonnetta
Italian
The wisteria-covered terrace sits just off Marostica's famous chessboard square, and the dining room inside feels like it has barely changed in decades. This old-school trattoria holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand and runs on a tight menu of Venetian classics: bigoli pasta, salt cod the Vicenza way, tripe soup. Tables are few and regulars are loyal, so booking ahead is less a suggestion than a fact of life.
-
-
Rank 84. Kro
Alpine Austrian
-
Rank 85. Al Pozzo
Seafood
-
An old farmhouse in Tisens, barn and stables folded into the dining room so the stone walls and timber feel less like decor than something that was always there. The kitchen runs a "Wine & Dine" concept, pairing South Tyrolean flavors with dishes that are clean rather than fussy. The wine cellar has been quietly accumulated over years and it shows. Service is the kind that doesn't need to announce itself.
-
Perched at the edge of Bosco Chiesanuova in the Lessini Mountains, Araldo is a pizzeria that treats local sourcing like a quiet obsession. Neapolitan rounds share the menu with Roman-style shovel pizzas made from ancient grains, named after a Cimbrian word from when medieval German settlers colonized these hills. Cheeses come from Monte Veronese dairies, cured meats from the village butcher. Good beer and wine list to match.
-
The name nods to the year the surrounding hotel opened, and the room leans into that Liberty-era design, but the cooking is firmly now. This contemporary restaurant in Soprabolzano runs a tasting menu built around Alto Adige produce, including Wagyu beef raised on the chef's home turf in the Renon region. A wine list of nearly 400 regional labels gives the kitchen a lot to work with, and non-alcoholic pairings are taken just as seriously.
-
Rank 89. Trattoria alla Ruota
Modern Italian
Tortelli stuffed with Amarone-braised meat is a reasonable argument for making the drive into the Valpolicella hills. This is a cozy trattoria with a fireplace, a veranda, and a terrace for warmer evenings, the kind of room that makes it easy to stay for an extra glass. The wine list leans deep into Verona, with a generous pour-by-the-glass selection. The Michelin Guide has given it a Bib Gourmand, which tells you the cooking punches above the price.
-
Rank 90. Ristorante Da Anita - Chalet Prà delle Nasse
Alpine Italian
-
A farmhouse restaurant on the western slopes of Monte Baldo, where the terrace looks straight down to Lake Garda and the menu follows whatever the season is willing to hand over. The kitchen works through meat, fish, and vegetable dishes with local ingredients doing most of the talking. The wine list runs to over a thousand bottles kept in an old underground cellar, which is a serious number for a hillside dining room this quiet.
-
-
Rank 93. Damini Macelleria & Affini
Steakhouse
You walk in through a butcher shop, past cured meats and niche pantry goods worth lingering over, before finding the dining room tucked behind it all. At this Michelin-starred restaurant, meat is the main event, sourced regionally and from further afield, with a menu that moves between classic preparations and more inventive ideas. Wine bottles line the walls, and the cellar behind them is serious business.

Venetian Seafood
Sandrigo is the town that gave the world the bacalà alla vicentina festival, so it makes sense that a restaurant here has built its entire identity around cod. Palmerino serves the fish plain, salted, and dried, with the house centerpiece being that same local classic, made with stoccafisso despite what the name implies. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, the menu adds other seafood and a few meat dishes for the unconvinced.

-
The Alpini Bridge fills the window and the Brenta runs below, which is a pretty solid backdrop for a pizza place. This Bassano del Grappa pizzeria works several dough styles, from puffy Neapolitan to a thinner Venetian version, piling them with Southern Italian imports alongside local Asiago and cod. Desserts come with a nod to the local grappa tradition, and the wine list punches above its weight. Ranked in 50 Top Pizza Italy.
-
A historic villa in the Monte Grappa foothills, with kitchen gardens that actually feed the tasting menus, is a good argument for creative modern cuisine. The chef builds seasonal menus around short-supply-chain and organic ingredients, following the territory's rhythm rather than fighting it. The cellar leans into PIWI grape varieties alongside the classics, and the front-of-house runs things with the kind of quiet attention that makes a long tasting dinner feel easy rather than exhausting.
