Where to eat Lombard food in Bergamo: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Reviews on Lombard food in Bergamo, Province of Bergamo, Italy. Bergamo is a northern Italy treasure. Dating from 49 BC, Bergamo has two centers: the Alta (upper) city and the Bassa (lower) city, connected by a funicular and walking trails. For historic sites, go to Alta for the Piazza Vecchia,the Cattedrale di Bergamo e Battistero, and the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore Baptistry, as well as the quirky mausoleum of Rastelli, the world famous juggler. Bassa is more modern and residential, and boasts Via 20 Settembre - the shopping district.

Our B&B recommended this restaurant as one which the locals enjoy. Whilst it may have been less expensive than many in Bergamo, the waiting staff were frankly rude to us, as non-Italians. We and an American couple were pretty much ignored and put on the most disadvantageous tables, even though I speak Italian. I would not recommend to any overseas visitors.

Delightful ride up the mountain on the Funicolare S. Vigilio to Baretto di San Vigilio Ristorante. The views from the restaurant are so beautiful across the green lush valley. The food was excellent and the service outstanding. Very good wine list too. It is well worth a visit and you will need to book. Tel: +39 035 253191. Make sure that you get a table with the view across the valley. I can highly recommend it.

This is an upscale; delightful and delicious restaurant to find typical Northern Italian cuisine.There were no tourists!!! Not many youngsters, either.Please try a little Italian; there is a waiter that can explain the lunch choices, but rude behavior wonât cut it here; this is classic ( and old school ) food and hospitality at itâs very best!

Had a really brilliant meal here. It's about 5 minutes outside of the Bergamo city centre, though really worth it. Really cozy and nice ambience inside, with local specialties. I had the salad appetiser with "Pecora Gigante Bergamasca" (lamb meat) and "Casonsei" which is the local pasta. Really enjoyed this!

I have difficulty understanding the positive reviews on Tripadvisor for this establishment.The location was very good, but my experience was not good at all.The staff were unfriendly and not helpful. Maybe because we are in the middle of tourist season? But there is never a good reason for bad service.They also did not give us correct change, so we had to go back to correct this, which they did.First of all we are not people who want to give a bad service to tourists because most of our customers are tourists. We have been doing this work for many years and I don't think it is correct to write a review where there is no useful but free criticism.

Heard great things about this place from reviews of our accommodation (La Valletta Relais) so got the hotel to book us in.This was the best meal of our Italian holiday and great fun. The restaurant is decorated in a very interesting way so certainly unique!The waitress was amazing, so enthusiastic and friendly and recommended dishes to us as weâd never heard of many of them. We ended up trying the local specialities of taranga, polenta, frog...all really delicious, different and in huge portions at a ridiculously reasonable price. Great wine too and amazing tiramisu (shared by 3 so big) this restaurant is a must visit when in Bergamo - take the 10 min walk from Citte Alta you wonât be disappointed. Booking essential as was very busy.

Called in on way to Airport.Only realised after that the restaurant was due to close.Was offered English menus which made our life a lot easier, English are so lazy when it come to languages!We was still made welcome by what I presume the owner, also spoke good English.All food was lovely, the house wine was just how I like it, not too dry, pity I didnât ask what it was.Food was lovely and sensible prices.If back in the area will defiantly call in again.Thanks very much for looking after us Dear Mrsubby, we're so happy that you enjoyed the food and the wine at our restaurant. Thank you a lot for all the nice words. Hoping for you return! Thank you very much.I'm going to send you all the details of the wine in the private chat.

This is a classy restaurant. Set in the heart of the beautiful high town of Bergamo, it is a place for romantic dinners or a relaxed meeting of close friends or business colleagues.So when eight, thirsty English golf tourists crash through the door, it rather took the waiter by surprise. Not that we were loud but we were thirsty and we do enjoy a glass of wine followed by another glass of wine as we are studying a menu, which incidentally is terrific here, because this is Lombardian food and cooking very much at its zenith.So, after a while up came the first, crisp bottle of dry Lombardian white which did not stay long in the glass. Sadly it had not occurred to our waiter to recognise that our group were here to have a good time so we needed our stocks replenishing rapidly and were quite happy to pour out our own wine rather than him serve us.However that is the only criticism other than my main course, a perfectly cooked and flavoursome piece of pork that had been slow cooked over 20 hours, could have been hotter.Otherwise the food was superb, with the glorious casoncelli, a stuffed pasta filled with a sage sauce, butter and pancetta, described by one of our party as one of the most delicious starters he had ever eaten. I had a small tartare of the local beef which was sublime, and only wished a larger portion of it had been available as a main.Plates of local beef and rabbit were eaten clean as we eased into some decent cabernet sauvignon, which was now coming through from the shelves at a most pleasing rate.What for me was the highlight was the local cheese board we all had with a selection of Lombardy cheeses all matched on a plate with appropriate sauces. Our waiter, helpfully explained what they all were plus the sauces, known as marmellate or jams in Italy, but I forget now other than that they were universally delicious.Fire in a complimentary grappa with our coffee and we were eight happy chaps. Our group had been a test for the establishment but it had come through with flying colours.

Great food, wine, service and atmosphere!The veggies that you can see through the front window are enough to catch your eyes; then you start to taste the wonderful dishes and recall exactly why you return to Italy over and over again!The locals fill the restaurant because everything is delicious so come early to get a seat!
