Geoffrey's Sapori Reali - VENARIA REALE

Restaurant with a good atmosphere, run by wonderfully hospitable people like Gianni, and tasty food. Gluten-free options and eco-awareness are further plusses.

I visited La Venaria reale together with a group of friends and after a long day at the Royal Palace , we really wanted to find a nice place where to have dinner. We were just deciding where to go and what to do when we find a nice review on tripadvisor about this restaurant and when we enter we were welcomed in a nice way and they explained us that there was a surprise menu with starter and main course you could choose from starter and meat or starter and fish etc). We had many different little starters and also the main course, the Brasato al barolo was excellent. We also had a wonderful wine of the area named Ruche '. If you ever visit this area I would definitely tell you to stop and try this restaurant.

Lunched here with coeliac Glamorous Assistant and one grandson just before Christmas, after a visit to the Royal Hunting Lodge (read: Palace). As we had phoned ahead, there was pizza at lunchtime for the two standard diet lunchers. The GA had a soft egg , which was something like an egg poached with slices of truffle, under a parmesan crust. According to the GA, mere words could not do it justice! She followed up with the Beef with a spoon , a Brasato in Nebbiolo reduction which literally melted in her mouth. With two litres of water (I was driving), two glasses of Barbera, and about a litre of OJ for the grandson, a very reasonable 75 Euro.

I went to this restaurant with a friend of mine. Quiet atmosphere, good food,

Very courteous and hospitable service, fast and attentive.
