Their traditional dishes are executed in a creative style with well balanced flavors and ingredients. We had the agnolotti and the risotto as a first course and they were both exquisite with the agnolotti made with fresh hand made pasta. Ad a second dish we had the brasato and it was just delicious. The meat was very flavorful and tender. The torta alle nocciole is the perfect dessert for a really good meal. Service is very friendly and the wine list includes several types of barolo and barbera, red wines typical of the region. The atmosphere is casual with a traditional mountainous feel to the restaurant decor.

This Italian chef knows what he is doing and each dish surprised me in taste, texture and even how it is cooked . I can now say I have had beef tartare and cheek!

Heard it's hard to get reservations so plan way in advance . Only down side was it was really dark In the restaurant .... I like to see my food .

Named after Aristarco Scannabue, the pseudonym used by Giuseppe Baretti, a 1700 poet/writer/critic…read morefrom Turin, as Scannabue is located at the intersection between Via Saluzzo and Via Baretti, this wonderful restaurant serves excellent traditional dishes that gravitate around local ingredients, in a "vintage" setting that is both charming and welcoming. In a city that offers high quality food at affordable prices, this was perhaps the dining experience I'll remember the most of my stay in Turin. The menu is curated and offers a large variety of Turin and Piemonte dishes; some are traditional by the book, and other ones are reinvented by Scannabue. I highly recommend the "Menu della tradizione/Traditional tasting menu", which offers a panoramic culinary view of what this fantastic city and region have to offer and, at €32.50 p/p[1] it's an amazing deal. Our meal started with Bruschetta w. liver patè and candied orange amuse bouche, and the traditional tasting menu featured: - Vitello Tonnato/Thinly sliced veal with tuna sauce and capers. - Cappuccino di baccala'; cured cod served with potatoes to resemble a cappuccino. - Agnolotti del Plin 3 meats: rabbit, veal, and pork; sautéed in Alpine butter. - Guancia brasata/braised beef cheek slow cooked in Barbera wine, served over potato pure'. - For dessert choice of Bunet/bonnet (traditional Piedmont chocolate pudding) or Panna cotta. I loved my meal at Scannabue, and I would certainly come back to try all the other dishes on the menu. As Scannabue is also popular among locals, reservations are strongly recommended. -------------- [1] 2 people minimum.

Service was gracious - host suggested wines by the glass which were very reasonably priced as was the entire menu. We couldn't consider another place besides this for authentic food from the region.

We came here on a Monday night after getting off of our flight from Atlanta. We started off with…read morethe Battuta di carne cruda con salsa senape-miele (Raw beef tartare with mustard and honey sauce). It was really good. The mustard and honey sauce definitely added to the flavor and improved the dish. The star of tonight was the Tajarin "trenta tuorli" con burro e tartufo nero ("Thirty egg yolks" tajarin with butter and black truffle) I couldn't get enough of it. Everything was cooked perfectly and the tajarin was so buttery and delicious. It was excellent. The Agnolotti del plin ai tre arrosti was delicious as well. I would have it again.

I highly recommend La Conca if you are ever in Turino, Italy!! RIght next to the metro (Porto…read moreNuevo) and several hotels. Highlights: -The bread basket was amazing and much better than any breadbasket I've ever experienced for high-end Italian restaurants in the United States. They even refilled the basket mid-way through our meal. -Food arrived promptly, ~5-10 minutes in between courses. -The ham, tomato and mozzarella appetizer was so rich, flavorful, and fresh, -The risotto+asparigus+calamari was the best I've ever had. -The pasta+bolognase was satisfactory, although I really enjoyed the texture of the pasta. -The Sea Bass and Swordfish+pine nuts dish were also very fresh, earthy, and delicious!! -Excellent selection of Moscato!! ;-) -Friendly staff and accommodating -Clean atmosphere

We came to the restaurant by pure chance and were told that the kitchen is still closed and we…read moreshould come back in 20 minutes. I am ever so glad we did! The mixed starter player was to die for. Not only were there two different types of local meat, but also great burrata, some mozzarella twists, plenty of great tasting olives and some picked pepperoncino. But the highlight of the platter was the eggplant, which was positively divine. The main dishes were very good too... I had agnoletti, a local take on meat stuffed ravioli in a meaty sauce. It was very satisfying indeed... And quite filling at that... Other dishes were flawless, if slightly rustic as well. House wine is inexpensive and very agreeable. The service is relaxed, but courteous, helpful and unimposing. I will gladly visit this place again!

Our waitress did not speak much English but she was wonderful and we worked our way through the options. My wife and I couldn't agree on an appetisers to order, so our waitress custom ordered an appetiser that had items we both wanted. Fantastic result! The BBQ octopus was my favorite and was so tasty and tender that my wife ate octopus for the first time. There were 7 different options on the plate for only 12 euro, an exceptional deal. Main course was tuna spaghetti that was great. Dessert was Nutella cheese cake that was delicious. The cuisine is from the southeast part of italy. Waitress suggested an excellent wine for what I considered a low price for the quality. Overall one of the best restaurants we ate at while touring italy. I can't recommend it enough.

We ended up WAY over-ordering as portions are quite substantial, but that meant we had enough leftovers for lunch on our train trip to Milan. Started the night with a Piedmont red wine and cheese plate. I then had the mixed salad with lard, chestnuts, croutons, honey, and maccagno, which was a very fillings salad! I honestly could have been done at that point. Husband had the very interesting (and tasty) risotto with parmesan, pears and wasabi gel. We'd ordered two meat dishes as well just because they'd sounded so good on the menu. I can never resist when I see venison, so I had to get the marinated, stewed deer served with red cabbage. It was a HUGE dish, very filling, and I ended up having to take most of it to go. Sweetie got the beef steak that was served with a rich sauce and crispy potatoes...again, we took a lot of that to go with us. Despite how full we are, sweetie always needs his dessert, so we got the thankfully light panna cotta to share. All in all it was a nice night out with a good selection of interesting and different dishes to try, a good wine list, and a comfortable atmosphere to linger in.
