Vecchio Botticino Piazzale Arnaldo Reviews
I’ve been to Brescia many times but this was first visit to this restaurant. Absolutely outstanding. Antipasti, pasta and second course just amazing. Now my favourite restaurant. Definitely return next time in Brescia.
I must say that every time I go to Vecchio Botticino, I leave truly satisfied! The owners are obsessive about the quality of their products. From the bread to the sliced beef, to the wines, the pastas, the vegetables... it's all excellent quality!!! And above all, the quality is constant!! (I've never had a dish that was "subpar" or wrong in all my years.) There's very little sauce or spices because they're not necessary... The quality of the food conveys the true flavor of the ingredients to the palate. Add to this the impeccable and courteous service from the entire staff... The prices are rightly proportionate to the quality of the food, but still fair! I give it a 5-star rating and highly recommend it...
I went to Osteria Vecchio Botticino for a business dinner, and we all had a truly wonderful dinner. The atmosphere is welcoming, the staff is kind and attentive, and the dishes are carefully prepared and very tasty. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a quality dinner, with a pleasant atmosphere and that "homey" feeling that makes you feel at home. I will definitely be back! Thanks to all the staff
High quality food, service and nice location. The pasta was super tasty.
Well-prepared traditional cuisine. Saturday evening. We call at the last minute, but we're lucky; there's still a table for two available. The friendliness on the phone is confirmed by the smile on arrival. The restaurant is full, small, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Many of the customers are regulars, and that's a good start. We order prosciutto and salami, horse steak tartare, snails and potatoes, a sliced steak, and a porcini mushroom. Everything is truly delicious. A ripasso to drink. Fruit and tiramisu. This will be our go-to in Brescia. The bill is fair.
Best in Brescia
A modestly sized restaurant located in the center of Brescia. Its layout is very unique and charming. The mezzanine tables may not be the most comfortable for anyone taller than 1.85 meters, but it's worth it. You immediately sense that the team serving is very close-knit, almost like a family, which I really appreciated. The snail appetizer was very good, as were the casoncelli with ricotta and spinach. I recommend the meat casoncelli only to those who love bitter almonds; for my taste, the bitter almonds overpower the flavor of the meat and the dough, but they're still well-executed. The tarte tatin was delicious, and the sbrisolona with grappa was also good. The price was more than fair, and I recommend the restaurant.
I've been in Brescia for almost 15 years and I'd never tried this trattoria! Well... what a pleasant surprise! Very cute place, in the heart of the renowned Piazza Arnaldo! Smiling and attentive staff! Excellent food and wine!!! I really think it's earned a place on my list of favorite Brescia trattorias! 🔝🔝🔝

The place isn't huge, but it's very charming, showcasing Brescian tradition and more. The staff is attentive and friendly. We had the tonnarelli with anchovies and pistachios, which was truly delicious. The cold cuts platter was also good, and the meat was very good. The homemade sbrisolona with grappa was also excellent. In short, even if it might seem unnoticeable from the outside, the place is definitely worth a visit.
A very nice restaurant near the center. The place isn't very big, but there's a small room with a window overlooking the entrance and bar, and a few tables on a sort of balcony/gallery that runs around the entrance hall. Warm colors on the walls and an exposed-beam ceiling make the atmosphere warm and welcoming. The menu is varied and delicious: the appetizers are excellent and appetizing, from burratina with anchovies to artichoke salad or grilled octopus. The first courses are delicious, such as beef ravioli with crumbled Amaretto cheese, tagliatelle with anchovies or pasta with pumpkin. The second courses are also delicious, such as shrimp with zucchini or the more traditional stew with polenta, and I've heard the fillet steak is delicious. And finally, the desserts: tiramisu, chocolate and pistachio cake, or the classic sbrisolona served with grappa (it seems strange, but it's actually quite delicious when paired...and I hate grappa, and I'm telling you this...) Very friendly staff, fast service. Average prices, in line with the quality of the product offered. Absolutely not to be missed.
Nice coffee
The best Italian food I'd ever enjoyed. Very positive personnel.
Eating outside overlooking the piazza is always an experience. On a sunny day, it's priceless. The osteria's cuisine is simple: a few dishes, but well-known, well-researched, and of remarkable quality. The wine selection is extensive and not limited to Brescian labels. The bread is tempting. All anti-COVID regulations are adhered to with exemplary care.
Nice setting, friendly staffs but the prices are just not justified for the dishes served. Presentation is the bare minimum - pretty much like those served in canteens. Probably good enough to order a primi for an experience but that would be all that I would order.
