Restaurant Finsterwirt - Oste Scuro

How to Plan a Trip to Brixen, Italy

"Recommended for an "authentic culinary experience" by Günther Kofler, this long-running local favorite (in operation since 1870) emphasizes seasonal, locally sourced ingredients and maintains a cellar of over 400 Italian and international wines. Dining is offered across varied spaces—from parlors and dining rooms to a terrace—suiting different moods and group sizes." - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.

"Run by the capable Mayr family, this long-established restaurant has occupied a narrow alleyway in the centre of Bressanone (Brixen) since the late 19C. The dining rooms are decorated in historic style, plus there’s a charming terrace for alfresco dining in summer. Dishes are presented on different tasting menus with the option of choosing traditional or Mediterranean dishes à la carte style – we highly recommend the soup made with Sylvaner wine from the Isarco valley, as well as the Tirtl (fried pie) stuffed with ricotta, spinach and cinnamon. Guestrooms are available in the nearby and recently renovated Adler Historic Guesthouse, which is run by the same owners." - Michelin Inspector
