At Osteria dell'Arco, located in the heart of Alba’s charming Piazza Michele Ferrero, the menu is a tribute to the authentic flavors of the Langhe region, crafted with passion and dedication to the Slow Food philosophy. This gastronomic gem offers an inviting blend of traditional Piedmontese dishes and refined culinary techniques, delivering an unforgettable dining experience for food enthusiasts and travelers alike.

Starters to awaken your palate with regional authenticity and finesse.

Begin your culinary journey with the celebrated Carne Cruda all'Albese, featuring tender Piedmontese veal delicately seasoned with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper — a dish that perfectly embodies local tradition. Another standout starter is the Vitello Tonnato, where succulent veal meets a creamy tuna-caper mayonnaise sauce with a hint of lemon juice, balancing richness with brightness for an elegant first course.

Mains crafted with passion showcasing Langhe’s culinary heritage.

Osteria dell'Arco’s main dishes shine with artisanal pasta and hearty meats that celebrate Piemonte’s rich flavors. The Tajarin '40 Tuorli' al Burro d'Alpeggio is a luxurious pasta made from egg-rich dough, enveloped in velvety Alpine butter, seasoned simply with salt and pepper to enhance its natural taste. For those seeking traditional comfort, the Agnolotti del Plin filled with capon meat deliver a divine blend of hand-pinched ravioli bursting with savory goodness. The Brasato di Vitello al Barolo elevates veal by slow braising it in Barolo wine with aromatic vegetables and herbs, resulting in a tender, flavorful masterpiece.

Decadent desserts to conclude your meal on a sweet note.

Indulge in the classic Panna Cotta, a silky and creamy dessert crafted from fresh cream, sugar, gelatin, and infused with delicate vanilla. This timeless sweet is a perfect finale that echoes the region's dedication to quality ingredients and traditional preparation.

Drinks and specials complementing your culinary adventure.

The restaurant offers a celebrated selection of local wines, including the distinguished Concerto Lambrusco, perfect for pairing with rich Piedmontese dishes. Beer lovers are also catered for, alongside the availability of coffee to finish your meal.
