I had the shrimp souffle which was very light and full of flavor. It paired really well with my sparkling prosecco. The carbonari salad was large and very good.

Sadly to say we can't comment on the steak. The next table had it and it didn't look so appetizing!

For three persons we opted to split a bottle of wine, go with the appetizer trio (three really yummy spreads with bread), and ordered two primi and two secondi to share. The pasta dishes we chose were a tagliatelle and agnolotti, and the secondi included one shrimp and one tuna dish. All-in-all, we left at just under 100 euro, which I considered a great price for the meal we had. The really interesting thing about the food here was the sometimes outlandish seeming pairings (tuna with a blueberry yogurt sauce?!), which somehow turned out to go together perfectly. Be adventurous with what you try here even if it sounds a bit odd, you won't be disappointed. We went on a weekend evening and seemed to get there just early enough to miss the rush. If you want to sit outside during peak hours its probably a good idea to make a reservation.

We had the appetizer sampler and the crudo, some of the pasta, the spaghetti chitarra with sea urchin and mussels and the tagliolini with prawns were fantastic, and a fish filet with veggies that was as simple as delicious.

Can't miss this when in Torino you have an appetite for seafood.

We waited just 15 minute and he felt bad that he even gave us each a glass of wine! Now on to the food. This place serves southern style Italian seafood. We started with the mix of fritto misto which was calamari, shrimp, and anchovies. It was so lightly fried but so crunchy and the flavor of the seafood really came through. Delicious! Our server also recommended 2 dishes and I simply cannot remember the name of. One was a tuna type fish that was a whole filet.. Its a bit oilier for my liking but my husband raved about it. My white fish was cooked with bread crumbs and tomatoes. It was light. Loved it! This is a local joint. Our taxi driver knew about it and said it was a local favorite. It's a great restaurant kind of on the homey side with really nice people serving really good food. Thumbs up!

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.

The menu is hand written on a piece of paper in Italian but our server (she was fantastic) helped with whatever we could not interpret. The restaurant has a nice patio in the back which we enjoyed during our dinner. We started with a variety of Italian appetizers which were all tasty and authentic to the area. We then split a pasta with Bolognese which was very good. Entrees were hearty and full of flavor. Braised chicken in a mild vinegar sauce and braised pork with potatoes. We also had a half liter of red wine which was nice and a silly good price of 8 Euro. For desserts we had a chocolate torte and a light pana cotta. Both were yummy. As I had mentioned our server was wonderful throughout the evening and even called a taxi for us. Osteria Antiche Sere was a fun and tasty evening. Be sure to get a reservation if you decide to go.

They had English menus and there was a couple of slight misunderstandings but it was mainly that we didn't order a lot of food so they weren't sure when we wanted specific things delivered to the table. I didn't experience anything bad here and the only reason they didn't get a 5 star is that I'm a tough grader and there is a lot of good food here. I definitely recommend eating here. We went on a Wednesday night with no reservation at about 7:30 and got a seat right away.

The current owner who is the son-in-law of the original owner took our order. I ordered the pappardelle Raghu with rabbit and my hubby ordered the braised veal. The veal came with a side of pickled zucchini. I ordered a Da Mauro special salad which was radicchio, tomato, and Parmesan shavings. The salad had no dressing. The cheese was the dressing and it was good. The veal was tender and the tomato sauce was tasty. My pappardelle was good not quite al dente but the sauce was good and the meat was tender. Tasted like chicken ;-) For dessert, I ordered the seasonal fresh fruit with gelato and hubby had wanted a port which they did not carry but the owner recommended something similar but better he said. He tried it but at first thought it was sweeter than he'd liked but after the 2nd sip, it started to grow on him. The food was pretty good and the atmosphere friendly with the servers chit chatting with customers like old friend.
