Osteria da Nando
A family-run institution since 1957, recommended by Michelin and famous for its Fontina cheese fonduta, Burgundy beef fondue and polenta.
Located at 99 Via Sant'Anselmo in the old town, near the Church of Sant'Orso, the restaurant opened in 1957 and has been run by the Scarpa family ever since. It is listed in the Michelin Guide. Its signature dishes are a Fontina fonduta made with DOP Fontina cheese and a Burgundy beef fondue cooked at the table, served with black bread and whole-grain polenta. The menu also includes carbonade beef stew and a “1957” tasting menu. The wine list focuses on local wines, with over a hundred labels, and wines are available by the glass. The space is small and cozy; booking by phone or online is recommended. Expect about €40–70 per person. It is a three-minute walk from the Arch of Augustus.
