La Torre degli Aquila

Amazing staff, very approachable. Didn’t make me feel uncomfortable when my internet wasn’t working and I couldn’t order since the menu was in italian 😭The girl and her mother who work there are so nice. Pasta was so delicious it melts as you try it. Also, the duck was well prepared and the carrot creme was great.

What a gem of a restaurant, set in a old tower building, you get the feeling you are dining in a restaurant set in the middle ages. Food was the highlight and every single dish we tried were delicious. Lard was a simple dish, but a decadent dish when paired with homemade honey. Risotto was simple yet with flavour and another dish of the day for us. Duck ravioli was such a homely dish, the meat was so tender and had such a great texture. Run by a family, you can see the perfection in each dish that's taken them years to horn in and it shows in every single dish. Such a great find in Pavia.

Such a lovely place and extra delicious food! Both the fish and the meat that we tried were extremely tender and just perfect. The dessert and wine selection is great as well. The design of the place is very interesting and respects the history of the building. The members of staff are very friendly. Overall, it was an amazing experience and would highly recommend

Really great place! Food was amazing and the people, they were so warm and especially the waitress she was so professional and sooo good at her job, highly recommneded.

Excellent food! The gnocchi is to die for, the bread basket was top quality. For starters, the calamari and aubergine were all amazing. I got by with only speaking English but used google translate for the menu!

Excellent experience here in May 2025. Friendly staff, extensive menu, extensive wine list (the reasonably priced buttafuoco is excellent) They very obviously care about their food, service and the customer experience. Once of the best Italian restaurants I've been to and one of the best restaurants in Italy I've been to. Go and enjoy it!

I’ve eaten here a few times on visits to Pavia. It’s quite busy, and I recommend a reservation, although they might offer to squeeze you in between reservations if you eat fast. There’s outdoor seating in decent weather. The service is super friendly and speaks English if needed. The food is good honestly the bread is probably the best part of the meal. Extensive wine list.

We had tortelli, gnocchi di patate, carpaccio and house red wine. All dishes were delicious especially the one with gnocchi. They literally melt in your mouth. At the end they offered us a little dessert. It was a pleasant evening. Definitely recommended for dinner in Pavia

Very quaint, good food and service. We had a table in the entry way but the rest of the restaurant had a lot of charm. The owners bring you a plate with meatballs and bread. Also a complimentary plate of Easter cake at the end of they meal.
