Birthday lunch.<br>The private dining room was very nice and bright.<br>A simple menu, but with very well-cooked food.<br>The portions were just right, so you could try everything and not leave anything left over.<br>Considering five appetizers, two first courses, a second course, and dessert.<br>Excellent value.<br>The outdoor seating area was lovely.<br>Recommended
The restaurant waiters and waitresses were subpar. One of our group had their mouths stained by the sludge from the food.
Excellent dinner with friends, good, quality food in a quiet location! To be repeated.
I was looking for a venue to celebrate my partner's 40th birthday. After visiting several properties in the area and beyond, the beauty of its flower-filled balconies and the hospitality of its owners convinced me that Agriturismo La Desiderata was the right place for me. The farmhouse is located near the Agliè Castle (perhaps best known as the Ristori house from the TV series "Elisa di Rivombrosa"). To access it, you have to take a few meters of a dirt road that leads to the large parking lot, making the property safe for children to play and protected from noise, as it doesn't directly face the road. The atmosphere is delightfully rustic. The warm colors of the walls contrast with the brick ceilings typical of old cellars, and the simple furnishings perfectly suited to the setting, leave a pleasant sense of welcome. Inside, there are two rooms: a larger, less bright one with a large, ornate vaulted ceiling; The other, smaller, has a full wall of windows overlooking the outdoor garden. Both are available for events or regular dining. There is no air conditioning because the thick walls of the old farmhouses allow the rooms to maintain a pleasant temperature even in summer. During the warmer months, weather permitting, you can also dine on the outdoor veranda (just remember to bring Autan...the mosquitoes are unforgiving!). The set menu includes four appetizers, two first courses, a second course, dessert, water, wine, and coffee for the modest sum of €35 per person. Plus, at the end of each course, you're always asked if you'd like seconds. The menu isn't always the same because it varies with the seasons and the availability of the property's vegetable garden. We found everything delicious. The service staff was also efficient, polite, and always available. For those who wish, there are also rooms for overnight stays: about ten, all renovated and equipped with every comfort, divided into standard and superior rooms (currently prices start at €75 for a standard double room with breakfast included). Mr. Ferdinando and his wife were extremely kind and helpful, accommodating every request and offering valuable advice. They even gave me the opportunity to arrive in the afternoon so they could set up the room according to my wishes. Great care was also taken in the cuisine, preparing dishes suitable for celiacs, intolerant guests, and those with allergies. Mr. Ferdinando was also present throughout the evening to ensure the party was running smoothly. Indeed, it did, and for that, I thank him from the bottom of my heart. All that remains is for me to highly recommend a visit to Agriturismo La Desiderata. You will be GUESTS, not customers! The restaurant is only open on weekends (Friday and Saturday for dinner and Sunday for lunch). There are no architectural barriers that prevent disabled access (with the exception of some rooms located on the upper floor, which I don't believe have a lift or stair lift).
Lunch was excellent as was the service....we will be back...
We are three motorcyclists, and we stayed two nights. Thanks to Ferdinando and his family for the warm welcome and the excellent traditional Piedmontese menu.
I chose Agriturismo La Desiderata for my birthday dinner, opting for the Piedmontese set menu.<br>The location is truly enchanting, well-kept, and ideal for events like weddings or baptisms. As for the food, we were generally satisfied: the dishes were good, although I would have expected slightly more typical and traditional flavors from an agriturismo.<br>The only real negative, and unfortunately not insignificant, was the portions. The dishes served were meager, barely enough for half the number of people actually present. This forced us to ask for seconds of every single course to get a normal portion, which created a certain amount of embarrassment and annoyance throughout the evening.<br>In summary: is the place very beautiful? Yes.<br>Would I return for dinner? Unfortunately, no.
We just had a very tasty traditional Piemontese lunch. Wonderful location of you have kids who can play in the large safe garden
Spotlessly clean rooms, incredibly friendly owners, very quiet location, excellent cuisine, and unbeatable value for money. Would gladly return.
Nice and welcoming place<br>Excellent home-cooked food<br>Very friendly and helpful staff
Excellent lunch with a set menu that includes four appetizers, two first courses, one second course, and dessert, including wine.<br>Excellent food quality in a very pleasant setting, both inside and out. Worth a try.
I didn't stay, but I went for lunch with friends.<br>Very good value for money, I recommend it.
We had a truly wonderful meal. The dishes were simple but carefully prepared, with fresh, quality ingredients. You could taste the authentic, home-cooked food, just as you'd expect from a farmhouse.<br>The staff was attentive and efficient. The dishes had authentic flavors. We'll definitely be back!
