Excellent restaurant with a very traditional vibe and superb service. I ordered a stuffed calamari…read moredish that was very complex and tasted good. It came out so quickly that I assume it was prepared in advance, but that isn't a bad thing. Almost all the clientele was speaking Italian. There were 3 rooms, 2 of which were full by 8:20. In the traditional manner they had a cashier and if you paid with a credit card you had to go to her to pay.

We spoke a little Italian and while the staff was not overly friendly at first, they accommodated us nonetheless and were a pleasure by the end of our meal. We had the fried calamari to start which was delicious. Perfectly fried, not too much batter. Fresh. A good start. A spritz for the wife and I had a local IPA beer, both excellent. For mains we had a mushroom risotto (excellent), spaghetti al mare (seafood with mix of clams, mussels, octopus) (very good), and tagliatelle bolognese (excellent). To pay I had to go into the kitchen, which was odd but very Italian and cute looking back. Definitely would go back.

Having passed by other, packed restaurants in the square, hunger forced us to stop at this…read moretrattoria, which also appeared to be entertaining a large number of customers. Yet given the proximity of this restaurant to major tourist attractions and the fact that an English menu was available, I was skeptical about the quality of our meal before it arrived. We followed the recommendations of our waiter and shared a calamari, shrimp, and octopus primo to start: it did not disappoint. All of the seafood was cooked perfectly and swimming (in the best way) in a wonderful sauce of garlic and olive oil. Continuing the theme, we ordered a plate of seafood risotto and seafood spaghetti. Many restaurants in northern Italy compete for the best risotto, and though it was not the "best," this risotto was quite good. It had the correct slightly al dente consistency and the flavor was that wholesome kind that you expect to find in local Italian cuisine. The spaghetti was served with a light and savory tomato sauce and piles of seafood on top of it. Although the flavors of each dish were quite different, they were both well accompanied by the spicy olive oil - that seemed to have been prepared in-house - which the waiter brought. The oil was genuinely hot and thus a welcome deviation from the regional norm. Several other patrons ordered an apple sorbet that was hand-spooned into glasses at the table, and we did the same. It was clear from the container in which it was served that the sorbet was made in the restaurant's own kitchen. The exquisite creaminess and popping-with-apple flavor of the sorbet deserves five stars. As a final disclaimer, the waiters were all kind, but the service itself was slow. Nevertheless, this pleasant surprise of a meal was excellent and I would recommend Spirito Santo for a leisurely lunch after browsing Torino's center.

I had a few questions since Italian is not one of my languages and the server was great at explaining everything to me in English. I ordered the veal milanese which was served with arugula and cherry tomatoes. It was delicious. No fried taste, just veal with light breadcrumb flavor. I also ate asparagus with shaved parmesan, wow, cooked in some brown butter, it was great! The location is great on a sunny day to eat outside on the terrace.

Service is lackluster and at the same time condescending, as befits a tourist trap.

It was very good and we had a waitress that spoke English pretty well. I had the asparagus risotto…read morewhich was great and a side salad. That's a small meal for Italy but it was plenty for me. They had English menus and there was a couple of slight misunderstandings but it was mainly that we didn't order a lot of food so they weren't sure when we wanted specific things delivered to the table. I didn't experience anything bad here and the only reason they didn't get a 5 star is that I'm a tough grader and there is a lot of good food here. I definitely recommend eating here. We went on a Wednesday night with no reservation at about 7:30 and got a seat right away.
