La Cascina - TORTORETO

That was one of our favorites a few years ago. No, it's not okay, they look like people are coming to them, nothing worth it! the food is prepared as an “industrial line”.

We were twice for dinner in this restaurant. when we did not make it a meat, we were too full on the appetizers, sweet and pasta. excellent value at 12 euro inclusive wine and eating is very good. the second time we have done with the meat and we are satisfied with great sorts. recommend to make reservations for dinner (does not know about lunch) that can be a challenge because they speak English in a limited way. a great place to eat.

I am glad that we have found this restaurant at the end of our vacation, otherwise we would have eaten it every day and after home go a stone heavier! delicious food and charge it for the price its great value. only on the side was the wait for one. table, the waiters were so busy that I think they ignored us consciously, but it was worth waiting. it was the best meal we had in tortoreto. price: 15 € fished and 12 € meated. price includes all beer wine and water they want. they only pay extra for desert and coffee.

This from the way taverna is located in the hills over torteleto with a magnificent view of the sea. an outdoor playground for children. a set menu (fish on midday and meat in the evening) is far from fine dining, but sets. value for money €15 for fish and €12 for meat) including wine. everyone who was before will notice a deterioration both in quality and in quantity. if they want to explore the opposite, they want a change from the pizza.

You'd think that the owner of this restaurant is actively trying to discourage tourists. First of all, the place is almost impossible to find. Second, an English-speaking wait staff member is hard to find. But the food is so good for the price that you...really need to make the effort. This is a nicely decorated family place where they offer a lunch menu for a fixed price of 15 euro per person, and dinner for a fixed price of 12 euro for meat dishes and 15 euro for fish. The menu changes daily, and the price includes bread, antipasto, primi, and secondi. We went there last night for Father's Day. The antipasti were sliced meats and cheese. The contorni were peas with carrots, mushrooms, and grilled mixed vegetables. The primi were ravioli with lemon sauce, cepe with sausage, and tortellini in a cream sauce. The secondi we chose were ossio buco (marvelous and grilled meats that included sausage, liver and country bacon. Everything was very good, and the quantity of food was amazing. I wouldn't call the food quality or the preparation outstanding, but it was very good and a wonderful value for the price. I've had worse food at double to triple the price in some of the tourist traps near the beach. Now how to find it. You know that going anyplace in Italy requires an element of faith. Street with 14-syllable names will change names four times in four blocks. Getting from point A to point B requires the ability to read 12 place name signs on a pole as you approach a traffic circle at 30 KPH while a jerk in a Beemer is coming up behind you at 120. (While living in Los Angeles for 60 years, I thought that it was only LA jerks who drove BMW's now I'm convinced that the community of jerks who drive Beemers is worldwide! When I first scoped out this place, I'd planned to drive up the road from Tortoreto Lido to Tortoreto Alto past the churches. Tried that and the road petered out before I ever found Via Badette. So here's the way that works. From SS16 in Alba, go west on Via Ascolana to the first signal light. Turn left onto Via Certosa and follow it under A14. Once you cross under A14, the road swings left a bit to travel alongside A14. Follow it about 1300 meters and then cut back hard right onto Via Fontanelle. When you get to the top of the hill, Via Fontanelle turns into Via Badette. You'll see a sign for Via Badette going to the right. Don't turn there go straight through the intersection and the Ristorante Cascina is about 300 meters further on your left. You'll spot a neon sign that says Aperto and you can turn into the parking lot. Follow the road down to the second parking lot so you don't have to hike down and back up the stairs. Enjoy!
