Osteria dell'Oca

A local recommended this restaurant to us. It features a beautiful decoration and well-dressed servers. The service is welcoming and efficient, and the dishes are delicious. There are many options on the menu, and I wish I had been hungrier that day or had more time in Aoste to try them. Note: An English menu is available.

DON’T GO!!!!! Terrible service, the lady who was supposed to arrange the table was the rudest person that I have ever met. We booked a table for seven people at 21:30, but we arrived earlier because we made a mistake (we thought it was 21h). The owner asked us to wait (we were in three waiting, so we weren’t occupying a lot of space)… suddenly I saw this lady complaining a lot about us, and asked to wait near the toilet and we went (without complaining). My sister in law went to get the menu to see what to order later, and suddenly this lady started to yell at her, saying that we’re not supposed to get the menu, because we arrived earlier. She completely lost her mind with no reason. This woman was so unexpectedly rude that we decided to leave the restaurant without eating.

1 star is given to the appiter of 3 kinds of traditional goose. The other star is given to the waitresses there always smile and cheer you. I don't know why they got so high review rate from google. The cheese fondue taste like milk mix flower. The goose ragu pasta looks tasty from the picture but the texture of fresh pasta taste like the overnight noodles...horrible (ragu itself is tasty). All cold cut and Lardo made us very disappointed because normally this kind of restaurant in the moutain always offer delicious local cold cut, but the one they offered are even worse than yhe one you can find it in the supermarket. They even ruined Tiramisu which taste like dry thick panna colored in yellow, It is obviously not made by mascarpone cheese. Maybe the high review is because everyone is same as me that we go there by reference of google's review. It is not worthy to book this restaurant so early even that night when we went there were full booked as usual. I never had so bad experience by reference the review of google. Be aware of it if you really have high standard of food and wanna taste good quality mountain good in Aosta, you will be disappointed.

We decided to go here as per the reviews. But we were disappointed, first of all when you see the expensive plate, you expect top quality it's not the case. Food was in the average, so there is no an explanation for the high price.

Among the crowded street, it situated in a quiet compound and very peaceful. There were many guests but plates were served very quickly. My plate , as you can see in photo, was very delicious. Goose leg was grill very well and sauce made it perfect. However I’m giving 4 stars because the rest of the plate (potatoes and fried vegetable) didn’t go so well in general. It made the meal a bit heavy. After eating meat with sauce, it would be better if there’s something refreshing like small salad. Aside from that, it was a good meal.

I liked it, it is a place of beautiful decoration, delicious Italian food and very good service. Of course we will return. Thank you, keep that quality always!

This osteria serves mainly local dishes - so lots of cheese - but specialising in goose, which I didn’t have. My entree of vegetables in pastry on cheese sauce was a bit plain and my veal was the same. But it had gorgeous polenta. My partner’s main was sausages in a tomato sauce on polenta; much tastier. Unusually, the servers are all female and they were all nice. ( no English however)

Place was fairly packed towards end of lunch hour. Got pizza and it was good, though it felt very basic and nothing special. Felt a bit undercooked. Not the best pizza (or even in top 10) I’ve ever had in Italy. Prices were great though.

Very good traditional local food choice in a nice and cozy atmosphere. Pricing is very good. I chose the "caniglio" (rabbit) and this was perfect in taste. The side dish was also very tasty so when you are in Aosta you can't go wrong if you pick this restaurant.

We went there about 2 months ago. We were one of the last guest to arrive, they kindly accepted us. The service was outstanding. Being a restaurant manager, I know how hard it can be to serve the last guest. Table presentation, plate presentation and glassware was delightful. Fluent english speaker servers with great sense of humor and great recommendations about the city.

I went to Osteria dell'Oca recently for the first time since the menu has been rewritten. The service was friendly and we didn't wait long for our food considering it was all prepared when we ordered it. The main floor is very nice, albeit a bit warm in the summer as it's attached to the kitchen. If there is space, ask to be seated downstairs (under an antique stone ceiling) or outside to avoid this. We spent about 18 euros each for one plate, drinks, and a shared appetizer.

Incredible local food in addition with wonderful outside setting. Order less maybe, as the portions are very abundant:)

This is a must stop if you are in the Aosta area. Great traditional food and pizza. Exceptional service and atmosphere. Don't miss this place.
