Grotto Angela - Osteria Da Giacinto

🏡 In 1980, Giacinto Bertazzoli purchased Grotto Angela, nestled in the tranquility of the village of Iragna, just a few minutes from Biasca.
His choice was dictated by the enchanting location at the foot of the mountain, far from traffic and noise and surrounded by a magnificent chestnut grove 🏔️🌰: the perfect setting for an authentic Ticino grotto 🍽️🍷.

In February 1982, he finally realized his dream: to open, together with his wife Vincenza, a small business of his own, after years of experience gained in hotels and restaurants.

From the very beginning, Giacinto won everyone over with his simple, authentic cuisine and attention to detail.
His passion ❤️ andhospitality 🤝 soon made him a point of reference in the gastronomic scene of Ticino and beyond the Gotthard Pass.

🎉 In 2012, on the occasion of their 30th anniversary, Vincenza and their children Roberto and Cristina decided to pay tribute to Giacinto's dedication, so Grotto Angela officially took on the name now known to loyal customers: Osteria Da Giacinto – or more affectionately, "il Grott dal Giaci" 😄.

🍴 THE CUISINE:

At the heart of every dish: fresh, seasonal ingredients and traditional recipes, revisited with taste and sensitivity.

The finest meats 🥩 – beef, lamb, veal, and other specialties – are grilled 🔥 and enhanced with aromas selected 🌿 by chef Roberto.

🍂 In autumn and winter, game 🦌 accompanied by rustic polenta and porcini mushrooms takes center stage.
🌸 Spring brings with it the scents of thyme and rosemary 🌿, which enhance the flavor of roast kid 🐐.
☀️ Summer is the time for lighter, fresher dishes 🥗: carpaccio, tartare and roast beef 🥩, marinated trout 🐟 and tasty lobster salads 🦞.

🍰 To round off a generous meal: a selection of cheeses from the Ticino Alps 🧀 or one of our homemade desserts 🍮.
