Carignano – Michelin-Starred Fine Dining in Turin, Italy

Carignano: A Michelin-Starred Experience in Turin

On Via Carlo Alberto in the heart of Turin, Carignano presents a singular vision of fine dining. The restaurant offers a single, unified tasting menu—there is no à la carte selection. This approach allows the kitchen to focus entirely on a carefully composed sequence of dishes.

The menu is a celebration of the sea and the seasons. Dishes like "Legata a un granello di sabbia" pair abalone with mushrooms, spring onion, and a broth of Parmigiano, while "Onda su onda" is a minestrone of shellfish with a printanière of sea and a plankton macaroni soup. Other courses include turbot with Jerusalem artichoke and red wine glaze, eel with radicchio and tomato salad juice, and a grilled mullet with chicken skin, cuttlefish, and black mayonnaise. The meal concludes with desserts such as a cold fusion homage to Beppe Rambaldi.

Carignano’s team is led by Francesco Polimeni, Elisabetta Riccardi, Nicola Matinata, and Matteo Dinoia, with Guido Multari, Luca Zennaro, Peter Osazee, and Serena Guidobaldi in the kitchen. The restaurant’s dedication to high-quality cooking has earned it a Michelin star, a recognition woven into the fabric of its daily operation. The dining room is open Tuesday through Saturday for dinner, and reservations are accepted exclusively online.

With its focus on a single, evolving menu and a team of skilled chefs, Carignano offers a refined and focused dining experience in Turin.
