  1. Belotti

    Piedmontese

    Save to a list Write a review On the Way Around

    Regulars who speak Italian with the owner and never bother with the menu fill the bar at this cozy Rockridge enoteca. The kitchen leans into Piemonte, which means brasato over polenta and house-made pastas that are the main event. The tortino, a spinach flan with egg yolk and truffle, is the kind of quiet overachiever that makes you ignore everything else you ordered.

    • Brasato

      Michelin Guide
    • Tortino

      “But more unexpected dishes excel as well: try the delicious butter lettuce salad with lemon and pine nuts, or the decadent tortino, a spinach flan with egg yolk and truffle.”

      Michelin Guide
    • Brown butter casoncelli

      “Richness is what Belotti does best, seen with its best-selling pasta like agnolotti in a beef reduction, brown butter casoncelli ($18.95) with smoked pancetta and pappardelle doused in rich gravy.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
