FIAT, or Fate Infretta A Tavola (which could be translated as: hurry up and eat!). The tone is of course ironic and mocking in this osteria, symbol of the Lingotto district. Local workers and civil servants come here to have a bite to eat at noon, so the service is very quick. Nevertheless, the dishes remain very good and the prices more than correct. On the walls, photos, newspaper articles and old advertisements tell the story of the famous Italian car brand and the city of Turin associated with it.

A variety of indoor and outdoor spaces offer the opportunity to enjoy modern dishes adapted to different dietary intolerances and preferences. Edit also produces its own beers, all unfiltered and unpasteurized.

While you're waiting to be served, take a look at the old posters featuring Snow White's seven dwarfs.

Fleg is the best takeaway pizza you can find in Turin. The little store is perfectly located in the center of Via Po, near the main points of interest in the city. The Neapolitan tradition of pizza is sublimated and there are several options of pizzas al taglio, that is to say to the size, calzones, but also Neapolitan fried. Everything is made with quality ingredients from Campania. To accompany it, excellent craft beers because in Italy, you never drink wine with your pizza, but beer!

And the service is extra, which doesn't spoil anything!

This Ligurian osteria opened in 2019, serving classics from neighboring Genoa such as trofie with pesto, but also succulent seafood dishes like these paccheri with tomato octopus ragout topped with a creamy burrata! A surprising combination, but the result is very convincing! All the dishes are cooked with the same care, in a short and controlled menu, with just the right amount on the plate. Friendly, attentive service. A faultless performance.

At this price, it's easy to see why the place is packed every day at lunchtime! 11 € for a pasta dish, meat or fish with a side of vegetables, and very pleasant service, fast without being sloppy, that's rare enough to mention.
