Osteria Arbustico

"Housed within the Royal Paestum hotel, this elegant, contemporary restaurant boasts an attractively simple and minimalist ambience in which owner-chef Cristian Torsiello’s cuisine takes centre stage. This 40-year-old chef (originally from Valva, a district of Salerno where the Osteria was first opened) showcases creative ideas and techniques in his search for perfect combinations. His deceptively simple dishes always allow the flavour of his locally sourced ingredients to shine through – his iconic spaghetti with saffron is a perfect example. For this dish, he prepares dried Gragnono pasta in the same way as a risotto, using a broth made with one-third beef stock, one-third parmesan cheese and one-third onions. He then blends this with sour butter and Abruzzo saffron to create a dish that is truly delicious and seemingly simple, despite its complex preparation. The wine list continues to evolve, boasting some 600 labels and including a few rare regional wines." - Michelin Inspector

Eccellente e una avventura culinaria ad altissimi livelli! We had a marvelous dinner at the Arbustico. Everything was fantastic - from the service, the food and wine(s), the location and the “magic”. I let the pictures speak for me, even though they will not be able to fully express the experience we had… Thanks to the chef and the whole staff!

A fantastic experience - more like a 2 or 3 star quality of food and service. My wife is vegetarian and her 10 course tasting menu was just as creative as mine - in fact some vegetarian courses were better. Plenty of local ingredients and wines. Wine pairing was interesting and just the right amount. Top tip - don't eat too much delicious bread!

Great food, great kitchen! But service was a bit slow, dîner lasted 3h30, instead of ~2h indicated on the menu... Also sometimes the sommelier for wine pairing missed the correct timing and we got the wine after finishing the dish it was supposed to accompany. Also some choices of wine in the pairing where weird in our amateurish opinion (NZ wine when there is so many great wine in Italy 😕)

One of the greatest places where I have ever been. Food was to die for, not the average gourmet portion but something substantial, tasty and unique. I ended up jumping in the swimming pool... Joyous, regal and matric.

Abbiamo scelto il menu da 5 portate creato da noi. Ottimo il benvenuto, a seguire tartare di scorfano e spaghetto allo zafferano eccezionali, aggiungerei risottato alla perfezione! Buono l’agnello. Brioche tradizionale meravigliosa! Ragazzi in sala attenti preparati e cordiali. Bella carta dei vini con ricarichi piu che onesti! Ottima la cristalleria, se non sbaglio Lehmann Synergie. Il tavolo anche se in marmo, personalmente avrei preferito la tovaglia alle tovagliette in plastica.

Il locale si trova sul fronte strada, facile da trovare. All’interno è un po’ buio ma piacevole perché i punti luce erano posizionati bene. Abbiamo esordito con un appetizers di benvenuto molto ma molto buono! A seguire insalatina di asparagi fagiolini ed anacardi freschissima, poi io ho preso il risotto al burro di cacao che ho trovato più invernale come piatto ed il mio compagno lo spaghetto allo zafferano che ha trovato incredibile. Come secondo l’agnello e melanzane sotto cenere che è stato giudicato molto buono ed io invece spigola radicchio e arancia che non mi è piaciuto per colpa della glassa bianca sulla spigola. La brioche con gelato e marmellata però ha aggiustato il tutto perché era buonissima.
