We spent a pleasant evening with a couple of friends enjoying excellent dishes in a welcoming setting. The service is handled by friendly and attentive staff. We'll be back!

I'd been wanting to experience Il Cucinino for over a year, especially the "Eat & Meet" evening, and finally I found a friend to go with. The atmosphere was immediately welcoming, the food excellent, and the wine exquisite. Marco, known as "Destino," assigned the seats, and in just a few minutes, magic was created among strangers: spontaneous conversations, conviviality, and new friendships. We felt at home, so much so that the following week we returned for the tarot evening, which was also well-organized and with very professional readers. Il Cucinino is the perfect place for those who want to have unique experiences, broaden their knowledge, and be surprised by meeting new people. I'll definitely be back! Giovanna

My friends and I decided to attend a card reading evening at the little kitchen. First, of course, we sat down for dinner and ordered a couple of appetizers for three to share; then two hamburgers (two very generous and tasty panini) and a generous portion of tajarin with meat sauce, accompanied by a glass of wine each. After we'd properly nourished ourselves for the future, we headed downstairs for our very interesting card reading; personally, they told me the truth. We concluded the evening with a chat and an unscheduled reading with the owner of the place, a very kind man with many interesting anecdotes. The place is very nice, the staff friendly, we'll be back! (:

Unfortunately we had an evening of parties and children, so it was all a bit chaotic, but in any case we ate very well. Fassona burger with caramelized onions, melted cheese, lettuce and tomatoes, truly delicious! The fast service and the really nice and nice waitresses! Thanks for the lovely evening ❤️✨🍔

Very nice, clean, and welcoming place. The staff is very kind and helpful. The chef is truly talented, and the food is obviously top-quality. All dishes are beautifully plated and carefully prepared. They're pet-friendly. We had two dogs with us, and they offered to bring us a water bowl without us asking. We'll definitely be back.

I went to Cucinino on Via Mazzini last night for a business dinner. I was immediately struck by the kindness and helpfulness of the staff, which is crucial because, unlike my colleagues, I'm vegetarian and it's not always easy to enjoy dishes that don't contain meat. Here, however, I immediately felt at ease. The restaurant is known for the quality of its traditional Piedmontese dishes, but I can assure you that they also did a great job with vegetarian options. Even more so, because every dish was vegan, and I can assure you that I was completely satisfied. We started with a beautifully decorated appetizer, with beetroot as the dominant ingredient—a true pleasure for the palate. We moved on to an excellent rice, zucchini, and eggplant flan, truly exquisite. Then, finally, the highlight of the evening: a plate of tajerin with a beetroot and chopped hazelnut cream. A true delicacy. To round things off, for dessert, a dairy-free chocolate salami, also suitable for vegans, delicious, reminding me of old-fashioned homemade desserts. All washed down with excellent red wine. Highly recommended for vegans and vegetarians, too—a well-deserved 5 stars.

We booked a tarot card evening. We arrived 5 minutes early, and the staff was very kind and courteous. They explained the evening's schedule and seated us. The atmosphere was quiet, and we were able to chat comfortably with the people at our table. The staff was very attentive and helpful, and the food was delicious and the portions were generous. The tarot reading was interesting, definitely a new and unique experience, and a very positive one. An evening to be repeated.

The place is small but very nice and well-kept. The guys are all kind and very helpful (they had run out of gluten-free bread and went to buy it on the spot). Good food, amazing fried artichokes, good hamburgers and chips with top-quality ingredients, which makes the prices slightly above average but it's fair. We went to the tarot evening, which was nice and fun. The only flaw is that the place is small, it has two shifts for bookings, once we finished with the fortune teller we left immediately without being able to sit down again at the table for a coffee or a liqueur because there were already people waiting for the second shift

We went there as a group of 5 after a long day at university and visiting art fairs. Despite we didn't know we should reserve a table beforehand, they could gave us a table in a rather busy night. Atmosphere had a cozy and warm feel to it. Also, the staff was friendly and welcoming. We had 5 burgers, vegan, vegetarian, and fried chicken. All of them was fresh, cooked to the point, and flavorful. The chicken burger that I tried had a curry-base sauce which was packed with flavor and desirable to eat. I also had a roasted potato as the side with mayo and sriracha sauce, the roasted potato was well-cooked and well seasoned and accompanying sauce was good too.

I came here because they were raffling off new followers. They gave me a free glass of wine and a chocolate salami. The place is divided into two floors: upstairs there are small tables for 2-4 people, while downstairs there's a moon-shaped table that's used mostly on Wednesday evenings for the Eat and Meet event. The lighting is dim and the tables are quite close together. I wouldn't recommend it for a quiet dinner. For appetizers, I tried the pulastr and the meatballs: good, but considering the price and the type of place, I think the portions were small. Then we tried the Bra sandwich with bacon, very good, and potatoes on the side. Overall, a good, easy-going place. You can tell it's new due to the inexperience of the staff, but I'm sure it's becoming a very popular place!

A small restaurant in the center of Turin, with a simple, modern ambiance. Like everyone else, we were enticed to try it by the complimentary glass of wine and chocolate salami. The restaurant is well-presented, clean, and welcoming. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The menu doesn't offer a wide selection, but there's a decent selection, especially the burgers, which offer a blend of Piedmontese and Asian cuisine, making extensive use of spices and flavors reminiscent of India or elsewhere. However, the service and organization could use some improvement; reservations are cumbersome, requiring late-night text messages and last-minute calls to confirm. The service is particularly slow, with a wait of more than thirty minutes for a burger, and in a quiet dining room, that's no small feat. We had to ask for dessert, otherwise we wouldn't be served. However, the restaurant is new, so there's plenty of room for improvement. Recommended for a quiet evening with a desire to try a different flavor.

Not a great location given the area, but that's just my personal opinion. Cute interior, nice color scheme. The place is a bit cold, especially downstairs; which might be acceptable given that it's a "cellar" with wines and tasting tables. The food is quite good, including homemade bread and chocolate salami. The wines are reasonably priced. Recommended if you're in the area.

Prenotato per la serata tarocchi al costo di 5 euro. Due turni: 19,30 o 21,00.La lettura è velocissima , nemmeno 5 minuti. Personalmente non ha azzeccato nulla, ma proprio nulla , tant'è che mi veniva da ridere ad ascoltare, deludente. Il locale è intimo, cameriere gentili e disponibili. Menù alla carta prezzi alti , così per la lista dei vini.

Cena del 04/04/2023. Ambiente piacevolmente semplice, tavoli non troppo vicini tra loro, comfort acustico non valutabile visti i pochi avventori presenti al momento della nostra cena. Possibilità di accomodarsi al piano inferiore, decisamente suggestivo per la presenza di un tavolo di ampie dimensioni in legno, circondato dalle numerose bottiglie della cantina. Tris di antipasti piemontesi degno di nota e abbondante, hamburger “cuore di Bra” e “semply” gustosi e ben farciti, accompagnati da patate fritte a spicchi ben cotte. Salame di cioccolato a chiudere adeguatamente. Carta dei vini ampia. Servizi igienici non fruibili dai disabili, essendo ubicati nel piano interrato. Conto non economico ma tutto sommato adeguato. Due nei a mio giudizio importanti: l’estrema lentezza del servizio, con oltre 30 minuti di attesa tra l’ordinazione e l’arrivo della prima portata, nonostante fossimo in tutto in cinque nel locale, e la temperatura decisamente troppo bassa per godersi appieno la cena. Voto alla cucina: 8 Voto al servizio: 6

Nice place with a relaxed vibe. There are predominantly burgers on the menu. The taste is really good but the size and bobbly shape of the burger makes it impossible to eat between buns. We had to wait quite long and the chips on the plate were completely cold. The service is friendly.

Attirato dall'invito di un calice gratis per me e i miei amici, ho provato questo ristorante e devo dire che sono rimasto un po' deluso. Il locale in sé è carino ma i piatti sono poco "di sostanza". Personalmente ho preso una seppia di qualità indubbiamente buona ma davvero troppo "concettuale". Non vado nei ristoranti per abbuffarmi però non sono mai uscito con così tanta fame. Carino il gesto del salame alla fine però ripeto, per il mio modo di vedere le cose, le pietanze dovrebbero essere un minimo più consistenti. Sicuramente sono stato ammaliato dal calice gratis. Ah e le patatine sono state battute un euro in più, ma sicuramente sarà stato un errore. P.S. modifico la valutazione a 1 stella considerando il comportamento e le risposte che sto ricevendo in privato.
