Il Tipico - BOGLIASCO

I returned to the typical after a few years of absence to offer a lunch to some special people. this time I found a great excellence both in the service and in the quality and preparation of the dishes. well and thank you, always keep it like this!

It is very difficult to park at this restaurant, especially if you arrive after 8pm. which is what we unfortunately did. Maybe better to get there on foot or by bus? I wonder. The owner doesn’t seem to care and disciplines “creative parking” as we admittedly tried to do. We were asked to move our vehicle and weren’t offered any advice on where to alternatively park. “I cook”, meaning (in my interpretation) “finding a parking spot is your problem, not mine”. Fair enough? Maybe, but I possibly understood this establishment had a parking. My mistake, if not. Yet , try as I might, I cannot spirit my car away into my pocket. Eating dinner somewhere else, as a consequence. Pity, because we were offered a very nice table with a stunning view, well above my expectations.

I went with my daughter and fiance..came out hungry and paid 200 euros with no alcohol.small biscuits on side of espresso coffee for 2 of us.....I know for a fact other italian locals have eaten there and paid for 6 people and lots of alcohol 150 euros..so Tipico owner obviously likes to price according to your tourist stature...total ripoff

We went for a romantic night out and chose this restaurant because everyone has talked about it. We went with very high expectations but we rather disappointed for the amount we spent that night. Food: average, nothing mind blowing for the prices you are charged. The antipasti dishes were not any more special than any of the other restaurants we have been too. Pastas were cooked very well though... Fish dishes were okay. Value for money: go for the view but if its purely for the food... It's overrated. Atmosphere: mostly couples on the night we went so very nice atmosphere that night despite the oldish deco. We went for the experience but won't be rushing to go back again...

Excellent dinner compliments Essen: 5 Service: 5 atmosphere: 5.
