El Pael Ristorante

Incredible service. They made you feel very welcome from the first moment you walk into the restaurant. We sat Outside with a beautiful view. The owner is the Italian sommelier champ of 2017 and needless to say, extremely knowledgeable. He even showed us his impressive wine cellar. Our food was delicious and we have since then recommended this restaurant to everyone else for dinner. Highly recommended

A true culinary discovery in Canazei! We ordered the tasting menu, starting with smoked trout with apricot and basil mayo — delicate and beautifully balanced. The ravioli with speck and smoked ricotta was rich yet refined. We also had the local cheese tasting plate — six types of cheeses paired with honey, jams, dark chocolate, crumble, and artisanal bread. An amazing composition of flavors! The platter of local cold cuts was equally excellent: thinly sliced, high-quality meats served with pickled vegetables. The bottle of Riesling matched everything perfectly. Service was friendly and professional, with a cozy Alpine ambiance. El Pael is a place worth returning to.

A fantastic meal with fantastic ambience & excellent service. The food was something like we have never had, very unique thought-out dishes with a great depth of flavour. We enjoyed the carpaccio & anchovies as starters. The trout tartar pasta and tomato guanciale pasta were also outstanding. The ribeye was cooked to perfection. Our waiter Boris was such a delight and made some excellent recommendations. Would definitely dine here again. The wine was phenomenal with Roberto’s expertise. All I can say is if you are thinking about dinning here, I would very much recommend it!

Four of us dined at this restaurant and were seated at a fantastic table in the cozy indoor dining area. We opted for the tasting menu, which offered generous portions and an excellent variety of dishes. The presentation, flavors, and service were truly impeccable. Wine enthusiasts will appreciate the impressive selection available. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and we highly recommend it. Our final bill came to €265, including a bottle of wine—well worth it for the quality and experience.

I had a special birthday meal last night and we had a really lovely evening at El Pael. As a wine lover, the chance to go into the cellar and pick out a couple of spectacular bottles was fantastic. The service was really first class as well. Genuinely great evening

Best Dinner we had in a while. Their "Piattone" gastronomic dish from 1994 was so good, I couldn't decide, which thing in my plate was the best. Worth every penny.

Beautiful place, very good food. The El Pael is a nice little restaurant in the middle of the mountains. The owner Roberto Anesi recommended us some dishes and wines to drink with. It was a very nice experience and all tastet really good ( especially the Rib Eye). I recommend the Restaurant to everyone and for all the passionate wine drinkers, just ask Roberto. Thank you!

Fine establishment. The sommelier is best in Italy 2017, apparently. However the service lacks a bit of organization and you feel a bit institutionalized. A good Canazei restaurant, but value for money one will find better options.

Waited forever for service of any kind. Drinks food!! When I complained they got upset with me!! Embarrassed that I took my son there

Perfect place for pizza break! Really nice and decent personal! The Toilets are fancy :-)

We had a Lovely lunch. Great for kids! Very yummy salad, steak and pasta! Very recommend.
