Villani Skostredet - Bergen

This is a must to be in the mountains if you are looking for an amazing food experience in Italian traditional cuisine. The environment is magical, the quality is so high that a star Michelin deserves. The service is managed by staff who can feel more noble. The price is honest and fair served for quality. A special mention for the Sommelier Alessio, who took care of us like never before. This place is better than many back in Italy, and I am Italian. Massive work of management and owners.

Lovely space, reminding of a classic tavern, ostaria, with lots of wood, barrels, bottles of wine on the walls, nicely setting for the atmosphere which takes you back to the Mediterranean. All plates were beautiful and tasty. All the aperitifs and digestives you would normally find in Italy and a lot of drinks and wine to choose from. Since we are in Norway,it is rarely that you find a pizza that actually tastes like the Italian pizza,so a big shout out to the italian pizzaiolo on the other side od the bar, as caprichosa was just as it should be. Risotto properly done,and pasta had all the right flavours. Caprese with buratta is a must for starters. Would easily go there just to have a glass of wine and the caprese. Price was a bit on the expensive side, about 700 per person, but no surprises there,since we did have all the courses. The biggest disappointment (although that is a strong word) were the desserts. No spectacles there, not even the tiramisu. But still, in total- a pleasent meal in a lovely surroundings. Ask table in the back, so there is not any draft coming from the doors opening all the time. It is a busy place.

Found this restaurant a bit by accident we had been looking for Tapas, however what a great place, amazing pizza choice and we could watch it being cooked, great atmosphere and really nice staff

Wonderful Italian food. The pasta is delicious. The pizza is excellent too. The desserts were the perfect ending to the meal.

Villani is really good. The food and drinks are fantastic. The meal was delicious. The restaurant was beautiful and the team was friendly and professional.
