I was a bit apprehensive to eat here since the location screams tourist restaurant to me, however,…read moreI was pleasantly surprised. The servers and service was tops. 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.

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.

So when you are done and you have that bread leftover in your plate...you need to soak it up and then get to the bottom so that bread is not only soaked with the butter, wine and garlic, but there is some cheese on top as well. Pure liquid heaven. My husband ordered the branzini which is a nice white fish, comes out with the head and tail on....nothing I like to see, however, they did the whole fillet thing right there and it was very good. We both enjoyed the meal, atmosphere was nice, not to noisy, servers were very nice. I would recommend going there for sure.

The current owner who is the son-in-law of the original owner took our order. I ordered the pappardelle Raghu with rabbit and my hubby ordered the braised veal. The veal came with a side of pickled zucchini. I ordered a Da Mauro special salad which was radicchio, tomato, and Parmesan shavings. The salad had no dressing. The cheese was the dressing and it was good. The veal was tender and the tomato sauce was tasty. My pappardelle was good not quite al dente but the sauce was good and the meat was tender. Tasted like chicken ;-) For dessert, I ordered the seasonal fresh fruit with gelato and hubby had wanted a port which they did not carry but the owner recommended something similar but better he said. He tried it but at first thought it was sweeter than he'd liked but after the 2nd sip, it started to grow on him. The food was pretty good and the atmosphere friendly with the servers chit chatting with customers like old friend.
