The restaurant – Taste and tradition
The highlight of our menu is the authentic Fritto Misto alla Piemontese, freshly prepared by Chef Marco and fried on the spot according to the strictest tradition. An iconic and harmonious dish, where sweet and savory ingredients alternate in a perfect balance of flavors and textures: seasonal vegetables, fruit, semolina, amaretto, brains, filone, steak, mushrooms, lamb ribs, and sausage, all enhanced by a light, crisp golden finish.
Our fresh pasta is entirely homemade: hand-closed agnolotti, velvety egg tagliatelle, and gnocchi made with local valley potatoes, telling the story of the region with simple authenticity.
Among the main courses, game dishes stand out, such as slow-cooked wild boar served with traditional “pignulet” polenta, a genuine expression of Alpine cuisine.
We also pay great attention to vegetarian cuisine, with seasonal dishes highlighting local vegetables, herbs, and products, prepared creatively and with respect for the ingredients.
Our cheese selection celebrates Piedmontese excellence, featuring the prestigious Castelmagno alongside refined locally produced goat cheeses.
To end on a sweet note, we offer traditional desserts: the elegant Bunet, Torta Delizia alla frutta, and the classic Pesche ripiene.

Everything exceptional
We go there as a family every holiday for the fritto misto. The best in the area. Everything is meticulously prepared. The owners are very kind.
Tripadvisor Review – May 2019
Sunday lunch
From the appetizer to the mixed fried fish, everything was excellent. We returned after a while and were as satisfied as the last time.
Tripadvisor Review – Francesco A. – September 2019
At La Pineta, you’ll find truly well-executed traditional Piedmontese cuisine, attentive, friendly, and helpful service.
Then you’ll find homemade pasta that takes you back to certain meals at Grandma’s… Top marks!

Free time
For lovers of the outdoors, hiking, or even history, the La Pineta restaurant offers opportunities for hiking, cycling (mountain biking, MTB), or relaxing walks along beautiful trails that will take you to breathtaking views or to discover the history of this beautiful area and the Maira Valley.
Winter snowshoe excursions (ciastre) are particularly suggestive, and are recommended (unless you’re an expert) with a guide.
Here are some possible destinations:
EXCURSIONS
Sant’Anna di Roccabruna
From Sant’Anna di Roccabruna, a charming hamlet born around the chapel and its panoramic square, numerous trails and excursions begin, immersed in unspoiled nature.
EXCURSIONS
Rocca Cubiera and Castlas
From Sant’Anna, you can reach Rocca Cubiera, an impressive natural rock climbing area, ideal for climbers and outdoor adventure lovers. Continuing onward, you arrive at the Castlas, whose ancient ruins, shrouded in legend, recall a castle of a distant past. From their summits, breathtaking views open up: the Roccabruna basin, the village of Dronero, and the Cuneo plain stretch out to the horizon, offering a spectacular experience of history, nature, and freedom that will remain in every hiker’s memory.
EXCURSIONS
Monte San Bernardo
Chi volesse proseguire l’escursione di un paio di ore (andata e ritorno) dal Castlas, si consiglia la strada che risale al Colle di Valmala e al Monte San Bernardo.
EXCURSIONS
Rocceré mountain
A more challenging hike in terms of elevation is the ascent to Monte Roccerè, where the cup marks carved into the rocks tell ancient stories and give the place a unique charm, blending history and nature. Reaching the Colle della Ciabra, you encounter the Strada dei Cannoni, now transformed into the highest cycling route in Europe, winding along the watershed between the Maira and Varaita valleys up to Colle di Sampeyre in the municipality of Elva, offering spectacular views and an unforgettable experience for hikers and cyclists alike.
EXCURSIONS
Chapel of San Chiaffredo
Following the Occitan Paths, a cool, shaded trail leads to the Chapel of San Chiaffredo, perched on a meadow plateau just 200 meters from the Roi hamlet in the municipality of San Damiano Macra. Walking among ancient woods and pristine landscapes, the route offers an experience of nature, history, and spirituality, perfect for those seeking peaceful moments and authentic glimpses of the Valle Maira.
EXCURSIONS
Sant’Anna Pine Forest and Freedom Trails
The woods of Sant’Anna di Roccabruna were the operational base of the 104th Garibaldi Brigade, a partisan command that fought for freedom during the Second World War. To retrace those dramatic moments in history, you can follow the Paths of Freedom, passing through the hamlets of Combetta, Grangia, Norat, and Ferre.
The Sant’Anna partisan refuge hosts an exhibition commemorating those heroic years, while the nearby gently sloping pine forest offers a peaceful oasis, where in spring and summer visitors can enjoy the coolness and fragrances of nature.
For those who love panoramic views, a short walk along the dirt road next to the restaurant leads, in just a few hundred meters, to a scenic clearing above the hamlet of Ferre, offering a breathtaking view of the mountains of Valle Maira, dominated by the majestic profiles of Monte Chersogno and Pelvo d’Elva.
