The name is dialect for "what a shame," which the restaurant leans into as a gentle dare to stop driving past. It's a secluded little villa outside Mercenasco, the dining room anchored by a fireplace, serving the kind of traditional Piedmontese cooking that makes the Canavese countryside worth the detour. In winter, fritto misto and bagna caoda fill the tables; in warmer months, a terrace pulls the meal outdoors into the green.

On the main square of a tiny Val Chiusella village, ringed by birch trees and cyclamen, this family-run hotel-restaurant holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand for its deeply traditional Piedmontese cooking. Tripe alla campagnola with polenta taragna is the kind of dish that reminds you what the region actually eats when nobody's performing. The surrounding village takes about ten minutes to explore, which is just enough time to justify dessert.

A nineteenth-century building with a balcony running the inner courtyard sets the tone for this Piedmontese restaurant in the small town of Caluso. The menu is a fairly faithful portrait of the region: lots of meat, some fish, vegetables that sometimes come from the kitchen garden out back. It feels like someone's grandmother's house if grandmother had a strong opinion about local sourcing and a cellar worth investigating.

The dining room sits inside a building that once housed a Workers' Mutual Aid Society, and it still carries that civic dignity, with tall windows, classic furnishings, and an atmosphere that feels pleasantly unstuck from the present. The cooking runs modern and Mediterranean, moving between seafood and meat with quiet confidence. The wine list leans Piedmontese but roams freely through Italy, France, and beyond, which is a good problem to have.

A pastry shop in the Piedmontese countryside where the display case runs from classic regional sweets to chocolate work, confections, gelato, and leavened breads, covering most of the dessert canon in a single stop. The spoon desserts are the quiet argument for making the drive, and the tiramisù, ranked among Italy's finest, lands light in texture but deep in flavor. Bonet, done properly, also shows up to make the case.

The paniscia, a Novarese risotto with beans and salami, is reason enough to find this old-school trattoria in the small town of Sizzano. The Naggi sisters have run it forever, keeping the menu firmly Piedmontese: fresh homemade pasta, stuffed boiled chicken carved tableside from a trolley, an impressive cellar of local labels. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the kind of room where regulars never need to check what's in season.

A family spent a lifetime collecting the fabrics and furnishings that fill this restaurant, and it shows: the room feels curated rather than decorated, all soft lighting and genuine warmth in a restored hamlet tucked into the Valle Cervo.

A young chef shaped by home cooking and a stretch in French kitchens runs this intimate contemporary restaurant in the middle of town. Lunch keeps things relaxed and affordable; evenings open into a more personal à la carte where land and sea dishes show off what the training was actually for. A carefully chosen natural wine list runs alongside, coherent rather than showy.

On a clear day the terrace here looks out over the kind of Piedmontese panorama that makes you forget you ordered two hours ago. This is a traditional village trattoria with contemporary instincts, the kitchen leaning on regional classics while updating the plating and finding pairings that feel thought-through rather than dutiful. The wine list covers Piedmont thoroughly and then keeps going, which is fitting given that the sommelier runs the room.

Set inside the Cantine Nervi winery, this contemporary restaurant wraps you around an open kitchen with a long counter for eating alongside the cooks or proper tables if you prefer. The menu leans creative, and while Piedmontese meat is no surprise, the kitchen keeps slipping in seafood, including a raw tuna plate built for dipping into sauces with a lean toward the East. House wines dominate the list, many poured by the glass.

A Michelin-starred restaurant in a quiet Piedmontese town, where the chef will walk the table through every dish with the kind of focused enthusiasm that makes you glad you asked. The cooking stays close to regional tradition, then takes occasional detours toward something more inventive or subtly Asian. Three tables in the garden fill fast in summer, so book ahead. The wine list runs to 1,700 labels, collected across two actual volumes like a library that happens to pair with dinner.

A converted monastery in the Monferrato hills, where the old lemon-tree house doubles as a dining room and Enrico Bartolini's two Michelin stars hang over the kitchen. The chef running the stoves day-to-day grew up on Piedmontese cooking and it shows, from a deeply traditional agnolotti del plin to dishes that push the region somewhere more inventive. The bread and focaccia alone set an early standard the kitchen then has to meet.

A self-taught cook and her husband, a dining room maître in the old European sense, have been running this Michelin-starred Piedmontese restaurant together long enough to be considered an institution. She builds the classics from seasonal ingredients and deep regional tradition; he handles wine, cheese, and the room with the kind of unhurried precision that hospitality schools try to teach and mostly fail to. Soriso is a small village, which means you are making a deliberate trip.

Frescoed ceilings from the late 1700s set the scene for a Piedmontese country restaurant that climbs, quite literally, an imposing staircase to reach its dining room inside a former aristocratic palace. The kitchen leans into regional classics, with ravioli del plin as the thread that runs through everything, plus a few seafood detours. The owner steers the wine list toward Monferrato bottles and Champagne with the enthusiasm of someone who has clearly done his homework.

A 16th-century farmhouse amid open countryside, with a kitchen garden out back supplying the dining room within. This is a contemporary Piedmontese restaurant where the chef keeps the ingredient list short and the flavors recognizably old-school, pulling modern technique into the background rather than the foreground. The wine list leans deep into the lesser-known appellations of Upper Piedmont, Ghemme, Gattinara, Boca, and Sizzano, plus bottles from the estate itself.

A family-run Piedmontese restaurant in Borgomanero where the dining room has quietly ignored every décor trend of the last several decades and is better for it. The cooking is classic, with the occasional modern adjustment, like their paniscia, the local bean-and-salami risotto, finished with a swoosh of vegetable cream on top. A few fish dishes round out a menu that otherwise stays firmly in the region.

A colorful, spacious Neapolitan pizza spot in Casale Monferrato's historic center, where the dough gets a long, careful rise before hitting the oven. The pizzaiolo behind it grew up on Campanian tradition and takes toppings seriously, sourcing less obvious ingredients like Pomodoro Corbarino. Desserts come straight from the Campania playbook too. It's on the 50 Top Pizza Italy list of excellent pizzerias, which gives you a sense of how the locals feel about it.

A fishmonger that gradually started feeding people, Pesceria San Martino is a small, unpretentious seafood restaurant in Ciriè where the front room is intimate and a glass conservatory opens to the garden in summer. The kitchen leans into what you'd expect from its origins: very fresh fish, fried squid available to take away, and a "seafood charcuterie" that earns its quotation marks. Weekends fill fast, so book ahead.

A Neapolitan pizza spot just outside Novara's center, where the dough is the whole conversation: high-hydration, high-quality flours, with ancient grains and kamut available, and specialty options like charcoal or multigrain for a small upcharge. The crust runs generous and the toppings don't hold back. The room mixes retro and post-industrial in a way that somehow works. A solid list of natural wines rounds things out, and the desserts are taken more seriously than you'd expect.

The kitchen works from Piedmontese tradition but doesn't stay there, reworking regional ideas with enough imagination that the results feel like the chef's own.

A savory potato crème caramel tells you everything about what's happening at this ten-seat counter restaurant near the Santuario della Consolata. The blind tasting menu plays dessert techniques against savory courses and back again, so the kitchen can keep you genuinely off-balance from start to finish. Guests are welcomed in a small lounge before taking their places at the counter. It holds a Michelin star.

1. Michelin Guide 1 Star

Antonino Cannavacciuolo is the name on the door, the celebrity chef behind Villa Crespi, and the kitchen here is run by a chef who pulls Southern Italian tradition through a decidedly modern filter. It's a Michelin-starred restaurant tucked into Borgo Po, one of Turin's quieter, more residential corners. The last dining room looks straight into the kitchen, which is either thrilling or nerve-racking depending on your relationship with eye contact. Book ahead, including for lunch.

The parquet has been creaking under the same dining room for centuries, and the view across to Palazzo Carignano hasn't changed much either. Del Cambio is a formal Piedmontese restaurant with a Michelin star, the kind of place where the room itself carries historical weight and the kitchen leans into that with classic vitello tonnato and agnolotti del Plin. The wine list runs deep into regional bottles and German Rieslings.

The wine list at this Piedmontese trattoria runs deep enough to occupy you before you've touched the menu. Chef Valentina Chiaramonte's kitchen leans into the region's more challenging cuts, offal and marrow alongside gentler seasonal vegetable dishes, so the table tends to split along predictable but happy lines. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the room fills early with locals who know not to leave it to chance.

The sand on the floor is imported from Spain, and you'll receive sandals before you sit down. Davide Scabin's one-Michelin-star tasting menu restaurant inside the Grand Hotel Sitea is a full theatrical commitment: a single seafood tasting menu that deliberately runs heavy to light, opening with turbot and red wine fish glaze before easing toward vegetable-forward, acidic finishes. Completely straight-faced about the whole thing, which somehow makes it funnier.

Vitello tonnato here arrives roasted, without the mayonnaise the rest of Turin reaches for, which tells you something about this Michelin-starred fine dining room on Piazza Solferino.

Tucked between Barriera di Milano and Regio Parco, this Neapolitan pizza spot has been a reliable fixture in Turin for a while, and the dough is the reason.

The Bruzzone brothers turned their old family delicatessen into a small trattoria devoted to Piedmontese cooking, and the transition was thorough. Two cozy dining rooms, tables packed tight, reservations required even at lunch. The menu reads like a regional roll call: acciughe al verde, agnolotti, rabbit al civet, bonet to finish. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the kind of place where you're mentally booking your return before the panna cotta arrives.

The brick ceilings still carry the shape of the warehouse this place used to be, and the wine bottles lining the shelves aren't just decoration: you can buy them to take home at a slight discount.

Tables packed close together along via Accademia Albertina, this snug trattoria is about as unfussy as Turin gets. The kitchen leans hard into Piedmont, with meat-forward mains and a cheese board that earns its keep, though it occasionally wanders pleasantly off-region.

The wine list at this modern Piedmontese restaurant is organized by color-coded mood, from "voluptuous" to "purpureal," which sounds like a game but is surprisingly useful. The space itself has history, once a grocer's shop where Lavazza first started blending coffee.

A pizza shop in central Turin sitting in the literal shadow of the Mole Antonelliana, which is a lot of pressure for any dough. The slices come pre-cut, partly for convenience and partly so toppings don't slide off the more elaborate combinations.
