Guido Ristorante

Guido Ristorante is an iconic restaurant in the Langhe, known for reinventing the region’s cuisine with recipes that are lighter and more contemporary than typical dishes. Husband and wife pair, Guido Alciati and Lidia Vanzino, opened the restaurant together in 1960, serving ‘market cuisine’ to their guests ‘linked to tradition and seasonality.’ Today, the legacy of the restaurant lives on through their sons, Ugo and Piero. Guido has two locations: the original is in the Villa Reale, in the Fontanafredda bionatural reserve in the village of Serralunga D’Alba. The second is in the hotel: Relais San Maurizio. Highlights from the menu include the plin (which is not to be missed) as well as the roast chicken. Guido requires reservations well in advance. The original location is the best location to visit.
