The story
At Restaurant Nives, located on the village square in the heart of Selva Val Gardena, the culinary philosophy is clear: "preserve tradition and dare to try new things." This approach, blending high-quality regional ingredients with the lightness of Mediterranean cuisine, has earned the restaurant a Michelin recommendation for 2026.
The setting is as distinctive as the food. Housed in a building that includes a rustic Stube (traditional Tyrolean parlour) dating from 1859, the restaurant also features a wine cellar and a wine bar. The atmosphere is sophisticated yet welcoming, making it an ideal spot for both a leisurely lunch and a romantic dinner.
The modern cuisine here is driven by seasonal availability. Expect homemade pasta creations, the finest meat and fish specialities, and a variety of delicious desserts. The menu is primarily sourced from South Tyrol and Italy, ensuring a strong connection to the local terroir. Whether you choose from the à la carte menu or explore the varied wine list, the focus is on high-quality ingredients and small, surprising details that elevate each dish.
