The wine list was very deep in the Barbaresco section and with a healthy selection of other wines from Piemonte. Be aware that Barbaresco wines are nearly as pricey as Barolo. Our son was very pleased with his marinated and smoked salmon. The rest of us enjoyed our meal but were not quite as enthusiastic as he was. Prices were quite reasonable for the dishes, though the cheese plate (which had plenty of interesting kinds of cheese on it) was slightly pricey in my opinion. The coffee was OK but not fantastic. A very solid three stars.

Absolutely outstanding meal here in October 2025 (white truffle season). Setting is rustic and…read morethere are only a handful of tables. I loved that each guest can order a different tasting menu, so we took one "land" and one "sea". We thought the land was the winner, but choosing both allowed for an outstanding number of options. So many highlights, but 2 I'll mention were the ethereal violet-mousse dessert, and the foie dish from the land menu that was one of the best things I've eaten. There were 2 servers and both were exceedingly helpful and attentive, though the young lady with the short hair had such a bad cough that I worried for her health (and ours! Though we didn't catch anything). Chef Flavio also works during the day extensively in the office out front, and it is a rare opportunity to meet him as guests of the hotel attached to the restaurant (which offered comfortable rustic rooms). The setting amidst vineyards is also very special. And I must also make mention of the excellent wine list which is worth a trip on its own! A deep selection of vintage barolos - I got a 2013 barolo that had nicely aged and was served in the finest stemware at the amazing price of 58€ (the next evening I dined at another 1-star restaurant where the same bottle would've been several times as much, if you could even find it). 21.9 was probably my best meal of 2025 thanks to the intimate setting, outstanding wines and exclusivity. Highly recommend dinner and a night's stay to go with it.

At Bovio, you can get a 6 generous course set at the price of 55 euros (drinks excluded) during lunch! Each dish was insanely delicious and very classic to the La Morra region and we were genuinely floored by the food, beautiful view, and amazing wine. My favorite dish had to be the veal tartare which was topped with black truffle. Its taste and consistency reminded me very much of my favorite beloved prosciutto.

The restaurant is full of regulars from the area but as a first time guest we were made to feel welcome. Chef Massimo visits every table. My Italian is not very good, neither is his English, but we felt appreciated for our visit. There is a 49 page wine list presented on an iPad focusing on the region. Prices are not cheap but fair with Gosset Brut Grand Reserve Champagne at 100 Euros, for example, during our December 2023 visit, and perhaps some better values on wines from Piedmonte. What I love about Italy is that wines in most places are priced closer to retail than in the US where wines are routinely markup up two to four times retail. That's why you see wine on almost every table in Italy while in the US people will drink iced tea or cocktails rather than spend $200 for a $50 bottle of wine. I digress. Pet peeve. The food is available as a Chef's Menu around 120 Euros or A La Carte with plates from 25 - 30 Euros. A four glass wine pairing was available for only 60 Euros pp. The Egg with potato foam, foie gras and liquid fondue was very enjoyable as was the Tortello Pasta stuffed with pumpkin and anchovy cream. We also enjoyed the Risotto with Jerusalem Artichoke and Roccaverano Cheese Fondue. My partner did not love the Lamb Ribs Breaded and fried with Crispy Batter but I could see how some people would like it. Our favorite dish was not even on the menu, a delicious Pannetone with Zabaglione from Moscato. I never loved Panetone because I always ate the ones in the US that were mass produced and probably sitting in boxes for a month. Some of the Pannetones we had in Piedmonte completely changed our appreciation for them, fresh, soft, juicy, delicious.
