An excellent experience, with delicious appetizers of cured meats and cheeses accompanied by Russian salad and fried gnocco. The same goes for the first courses, with a wide selection of pastas and sauces, and homemade desserts. The atmosphere, reminiscent of a true osteria, was much appreciated.

A Piola worth visiting and remembering, nestled in the hills of the Oltrepò Pavese. Good food, a clean place, and excellent service—everyone was quick, attentive, and unobtrusive. A special mention goes to Christian, a fantastic waiter who made the day a success. Highly recommended.

Returning after many years, and after last night, I wonder why I let so much time pass... Dinner with friends in this Osteria, with its distinctive decor and decidedly a bit out of the ordinary. Warm and welcoming atmosphere, very kind and attentive staff without being intrusive. Personally, I ordered a platter of cured meats (coppa, lardo, and salami), which were truly excellent, and the others who tried other types of cured meats confirmed my opinion. All the first courses were exquisite: pisarei e fasò, ravioli with braised beef, malfatti burro e salvi. The second courses were also excellent: fillet steak with mushrooms (melted in the mouth) and tripe. To finish, we tried these desserts: chocolate salami, tiramisu, and panna cotta, and here too, as with everything else, the quality was confirmed. The only negative note (a venial sin) was the berry garnish on the panna cotta, which was decidedly too sweet and completely overpowered the flavor of the panna cotta. We will definitely be back, also because from that As I understand, they are also equipped for afternoon snacks.

Hands down, some of the best food I’ve had recently! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend the Ravioli di brasato and Tagliatelle con Parmigiano (was made on our request only). Filippo was so polite and helpful, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Thanks Filippo for the wonderful care given to us. Worth a repeat visit!

First time at this Osteria. What can I say? A wonderful discovery, the staff were very friendly, as was the owner. Reservations are required, IF you want to find a table 😁. The appetizer was of local cured meats, really good, with fried gnocco. A good wine, excellent braised beef ravioli, good tagliatelle with hare sauce, but something was missing. The stewed snails...also missing something, very good cheeses, and fantastic local bread. Overall, I will definitely be back. Well done!

Extremely kind despite our late arrival, after 2 PM. The place is very intimate and welcoming, with prompt service. The cured meats with fried gnocco and the cheeses with jams are exceptional. The Pisarei and fasö are highly recommended, as is the trio of crème brulee!

Sunday lunch with friends and children: very good platters, not excellent fried gnocchi, excellent Russian salad, all delicious first courses, top-notch fried mushrooms! Delicious desserts. Everything was plentiful. The downsides were the very slow and somewhat distracted service (perhaps the cutlery should have been changed between appetizers and entrees), bees wandering around the dining room, and the noise of the hand dryer every time someone went to the bathroom. We'll definitely return for dinner, perhaps outside, hoping for slightly shorter service times.

34 (from 31 to 35) I'd gladly return if I'm in the area. LOCATION 8: Easily accessible, with plenty of parking, large, comfortable tables, and good spacing. Excellent cleanliness and hygiene. MENU 9: Excellent appetizers and fresh pasta, desserts a little less so, a wide selection of traditional dishes, and more than adequate portions. SERVICE 8: They found us a table even though we didn't book. The service was quick but respectful of the food preparation time. They were not intrusive, but thoughtful and attentive. BILL 9: Excellent value for money, both in terms of quality and value.

Locale arredato con gusto, a volte eccentrico, ma sempre piacevole. Cibo sincero e genuino, non fa strappare un wow ma si finisce tutto il piatto. I piatti sono quelli della tradizione. La zona non offre una vastissima scelta, e sicuramente la piola è una balia scelta per un pasto fuori casa. Buoni i salami e lo gnocco fritto.

This restaurant is located just after Ponte Nizza, on the road leading to Val Verde. It offers well-cooked, authentic dishes, including seasonal mushrooms. During the summer, meals can be enjoyed in the garden. Efficient service and friendly staff.

Good food and service, but nothing remarkable or memorable. It's an honest osteria, with local food and good choice of salumi.

Young, friendly waiters, excellent. Very nice and quaint atmosphere, very good. The cold cuts were good, but cut a long time ago; the slices were "sweaty," but nothing really good. The rest was to be ignored: the fried mushrooms were soaked in water and completely devoid of any flavor. The tagliolini with mushrooms were actually made with oil and parsley because the mushroom flavor was lacking. What leaves me perplexed is that the lady actually recommended them to us...as excellent off-menu options. The price was out of line for what we ate. *Edit after reply - sorry, I didn't specify, we came for dinner around mid-autumn.
