Osteria a le Due Spade

Excellent restaurant with great friendly service. The food was delicious, I was welcome with a starter of ricotta balls, sun-dried tomato hummus and ordered just a gnocchi with rabbit ragu that caught my eye as I walked by. They were also very kind to provide a little petit four with coffee. Where else do you get to dine at a 480 restaurant. The interior itself is worth coming in for a bite!

My favorite spot in Trento, where I had the best risotto ever! The dish was served with lime pearls, cold gambas, basil purée, and bisque. It may sound simple, but the balance and execution were absolutely divine. Without a doubt, this is the kind of dish you don’t want to miss when visiting Trento. The service was friendly, especially thanks to the young Guinean waiter, who made the experience even more enjoyable.

Had a work dinner at Osteria a le Due Spade and it was fantastic! Cozy restaurant with a great vibe! The meal was fantastic, well seasoned and cooked perfectly! I would recommend stopping here for a meal to anyone in the area!

Great dining experience. Quality food and exceptional service- alessandro and Amadou were fantastic! The place is historic, sophisticated and has a lot of energy.

Very cute atmosphere and kind stuff. However, they served us cold and slight hard beef, which in a place like this should not be possible.. Also, in general food was very salty (for our taste). Food in served in a nice presentation and combination of different tastes.

The staff was helpful, informative and generous. We were given a complimentary antipasto because they were concerned we would not have enough with our small order. (We are light eaters). Charming atmosphere. The first glass of wine was not full bodied enough for my taste so they opened a great bottle for my second glass. Can’t praise the staff highly enough. The missing star though is due to the flavors of the food just not matching up to the rest of the experience. Maybe we just didn’t order wisely.

Excellent. We went yesterday evening for a birthday diner with family. We had the "Mountain" tasting menu with two local bottles of red wine recommended by our waiter - both excellent choices. The tasting menu includes 7 dishes of excellent traditional recipes executed with creativity. We ended up with a 380€ bill for 4 with coffee and grappa, which is very reasonable given the quality. Only criticism: the main dish could be improved. The deer was excellent, but the selection of sides did not compliment it.

After eating here, I spent the night throwing up and also going to the bathroom. I don't think the chef knows what he is doing. They gave me what looked like raw fish, which I asked them to cook more. Why would you put sweet chutney on fish? Disgusting. Then, they bring a seemingly normal white fish, and top it off with a sweet, coconut milk concoction. When I tasted it, I could tell it was too heavy and weird. And again, why would you put something sweet on fish? The chef thinks he is doing "fusion" cuisine. This is not a Thai restaurant; if you don't know what you are doing, don't do it! Sure enough, a few hours later, I threw up and spent the night with stomach cramps. I was tempted to go there the next day and demand my 50 euros back. Stay away from this place!! In their response they are saying the fish was fresh, the problem wasn’t the fish but the indigestible coconut sauce.

This is a small restaurant in the Piazza Duomo area. We were a large group of seven and ordered two plates each and shared some desserts. The servers were good although we had a flag them down a couple of times to get more wine. The food servings are presented very artfully and are on the small side. See my pictures of the food. I would recommend this place.

Disappointing and over salted.Wow,I'm sad to say this. We had hoped for a great meal based on reviews on TripAdvisor.It was not to be. Highlight was a great waiter and good local wine recommendation.Lowlight was the meal.They have a 5 course tasting for 75euros ,either meat or fish....or a la carte.But the whole table has to order the same 5 course menu so if one person likes seafood and the other meat,tough luck...you have to go with the same menu (so that preparation arrives at the same time)..so we went a la carte. The seafood was overall off putting and consistently heavily salted.other then the great crust on the ahi,I'd have rather eaten a pizza anywhere else in hindsight that night:( My lamb was cooked well but was accompanied with a whole wheat polenta that was like eating a sandy spoonful and was off putting.No interest in dessert after what I would rate as the biggest dissapointment meal of the year.Sad but true.Bright side was by going a la carte we didn't waste an additional 50.
