Hey friend, have you heard about Umano restaurant in Borgonovo? It's a beautiful and finely decorated place with a modern twist on Piedmontese cuisine. The portions are just right, well presented, and delicious. But what sets this place apart is their warm and welcoming attitude towards pets. They even welcomed our two medium-sized dogs with all the attention they deserved. We will definitely be going back. Highly recommended!
One of the highlights of Umano is their mouthwatering selection of meats. The owner, always present among the tables, will guide you through the different cuts and help you choose the one that suits your taste. And don't worry, they have a wide variety of meats and wines to choose from. The service is excellent, and the staff is friendly and attentive.

Don't miss out on this culinary experience. The friendly and helpful owner, the talented chef, and the attentive staff will make you feel like you're dining at a friend's house. They even went above and beyond to make our 16-month-old son feel like a king, providing him with a high chair, plastic cutlery, and a plastic cup. They even served him delicious ravioli within minutes of our arrival. We opted for their exquisite selection of premium meats, such as the Bue Bruno and Wagyu Lem, which were cooked to perfection. The side vegetables were equally delicious. And let's not forget about their homemade desserts, which were just as amazing and unique. Their extensive wine list is of high quality as well.
We spent two hours in this highly qualified establishment, enjoying top-notch service and cuisine, while also feeling like part of a warm and welcoming family. Umano restaurant is one of those hidden gems that nourish the soul. The fantastic owner has surrounded himself with an equally amazing staff. We will definitely be coming back for more.
