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.

An unmatched setting for a unique experience. The gourmet restaurant of Relais San Lorenzo is embedded within a Roman and medieval Archeological site: an exciting door on time. The fine and high-level cuisine will allow you to taste the pleasure of Italia

The most amazing setting within the restaurant...you sit elevated over medieval and Roman ruins that they uncovered when they were building the hotel & it truly is spectacular.The service really was top notch and you were brought little appetisers and amuse bouche before during and after the courses.32 pages of red wines in the wine list and the sommelier really wasn't pushy, singing the praises of a cheap little Primitivo as much as the 100 euro Amarone we went for.A lovely little ceremony of preparing the wine and glasses to show off the wine's full potential and very long legs. Plus wine glasses that could probably hold a bottle each!Then onto the food...we were going to go for the 3 traditional Italian courses and skip dessert, but we only managed 2 as the portions were fairly generous.Incredibly tasty...there's no need to list what we had as I'm sure every choice would have been just as good.In the end it was around E220 for 2 courses for the 2 of us, but that included a E100 bottle of wine, so I thought a bargain for the setting plus quality of food & wine.The most expensive item on the menu was around 30 euros.Michelin Star service without the pricetag.

At Nasturzio I've had a variety of visual, olfactory, and gustatory experiences.The quality of the "unusual" food, and how it is prepared and presented, is something really delicious.The chefs are super, as well the staff at the tables who are nice and professional at the meantime.The price is ok, also.Plus, I like a lot the minimal look of the restaurant, where you have to be concentrated on the dishes.

We enjoyed dinner here, having chosen one of the tasting menus - the seafood one.Each course, together with the complimentary appetiser at the beginning and petit fours with limoncello at the end, was delicious. The dishes were also beautifully prepared and presented and the suggested wine was excellent.Service is both friendly and efficient and the room has a pleasant ambienceThe restaurant is quite small and booking would be advisable.This is not cheap - tasting menu â¬60, wine â¬28 - but does, I believe, offer value for money.
