Osteria Del Balon - Torino

Great family-owned family-owned restaurant. Very friendly and welcoming owner and staff. Excellent food. Go for the seafood mix appetizer dish. Meat Ragu with pasta is great. Very reasonable pricing. Great value! Will definitely visit again...

We took a chance on this restaurant as we really fancied fish, which featured heavily on their menu. We ordered a selection of cold and warm fish, 1 scallop gratin, 1 oyster, white bait fritters, salmon in pink sauce, a slice of artichoke frittata, anchovies and mussels (but strangely no calamari). The food was average, the service exceptional but the lack of a menu was annoying. It pains me to say this, as the owner looked like a decent guy, he probably invested a lot of time and money in this business but the restaurant is just so dreary that I came out feeling depressed.

Semplicemente spettacolare. Ho scoperto oggi questo posto dove si mangia e beve magnificamente, ci vedremo presto. Gli antipasti sono abbondanti e deliziosi. Il primo è generoso e perfetto. Un momento fantastico. I dolci sono come quelli precedenti. Altamente raccomandato. Congratulazioni a Debora.
