Vineria Cozzi

Absolutely lovely spot! I walked in by chance while exploring Bergamo and instantly fell in love with the cozy, home-style atmosphere. Super friendly and stylish staff, great food, and the idea of choosing your own bottle from the shelf and just paying the cork charge — brilliant! I’ll definitely come back again. 🍷✨

A very good restaurant. not your typical Italian restaurant, it was a new and surprising cuisine based on traditional dishes. Excellent service and good atmosphere

Fine Dining for Everyone! Never thought we would stumble into a restaurant of this calibre. Dishes were beautifully crafted but the art was in the execution of the balance of the matchmaking of the ingredients that made my taste buds dance and my heart sing. My Dark Cocoa Tartlet (savoury) was divine!!! If I am ever in Bergamo or in Milan, I will definitely come back to this under-rated restaurant again. The service was excellent. Tita looked after us wonderfully!!

Great food (if you eat just one dish, it’s small portion :) nice place

Disappointing Experience Despite High Expectations We visited this restaurant after reading several glowing reviews, hoping for a memorable meal. Unfortunately, our experience was far from satisfying. We ordered two dishes, both of which were underwhelming in flavor and presentation. The wine didn’t help either—it was equally disappointing. To make matters worse, we were charged €4.50 per person for service, bringing our total to €60. For that price, we expected much more. The portions were surprisingly small, so even if the food had been enjoyable, it wouldn’t have felt worth it. I don’t usually write negative reviews, but in this case, the value simply didn’t match the cost. Sadly, we left feeling let down and unlikely to return. P.S thanks for bread!

I dined solo for the evening. I walked in and asked for a table and was seated somewhere towards the back for a nice quiet meal. The music was a fantastic playlist to go along with the food. I had excellent service with the waitress taking care of me for my time there. She made some excellent recommendations for the evening. They have many gluten free options to choose from here. Reading some of the other reviews was unfortunate to read. I had the opposite experience with my visit to this place without a reservation and walking in. I will definitely dine here again if I’m the Bergamo area.

Great staff and cozy place where locals hang out . Try the egg appetizer! The best in the world 🌎

Disappointing. Really poor service from both members of staff. We were given the English menu automatically and it was a really bad translation that didn’t make sense so we asked for the menu in Italian. After that all communication was made by the waitress in the fastest Italian she could manage! We are Anglo Italian and do speak good Italian but she was obviously making some kind of point. We were thereafter ignored when it came to collecting plates, ordering more food and wine etc. The food was okay but I’ve had much better in Bergamo. We went somewhere else for dessert.

Great atmosphere and comprehensive wine selection, gin selection, scotch selection. Polenta entrée blew me away with two sauces perfectly divided down the center of the polenta cake like entrée. I had the meat plate appetizers that was just perfectly prepared with the amazing Parma ham. Excellent service and good price/value relationship. It is impossible to find a mediocre meal in the city of Bergamo.

Among the many enotecas of Bergamo, Cozzi deserves special mention. Founded in 1848, the Vineria still has many of its original fittings, and the owner Simona takes pride in keeping things as they are. Step inside through the modest but pretty frontage, and you are in a timeless place, where the ancient hand carved shelves groan with wine and the old marble counter is topped with delicacies to nibble upon as you enjoy your glass of wine. To the rear lies a tiny internal dining room where you can take a more substantial meal, and on through here is a courtyard with a few more tables. Everything is beautifully laid out in an exceptionally tasteful manner. The dining aspect of Cozzi's has taken on a more serious aspect in recent years, and today it can lay claim to a place among the top destinations in the Citta Alta. Inventive cookery based on local products could offer you dishes such as: Tart of Potato, Honey, Goats Cheese and Chestnuts; Rice cooked in Barolo with Radicchio; Lamb cutlets with winter ratatouille; and red fruit meringues with white chocolate. Lunch is an excellent option at Cozzi's, as from Mon-Fri only they offer a 25% discount off their menu prices.

Pretentious place with low quality food. The starter, goat cheese on smoked aubergine was mediocre. The ravioli was swimming in a heavy buttery oily sauce. The black angus burger was dry and full of irrelevant herbs. It was closer to a sujuk than to a burger. The service was good but they were always running around you leaving. The wine selection is interesting. Avoid.

This place is full of smiling faces, good food, and an authentic atmosphere. This was by far the best food we had on our trip to Italy. You really get the sense that the staff enjoy working here. Don't hesitate to pay them a visit.

This is one of the best places to eat in Citta Alta, infact the whole of Bergamo. We've been here for both lunch and dinner and enjoyed great food (the lamb was amazing), great wines and family like welcome.
