Pizzeria Panorama - VALDAORA

This restaurant was recommended by a local. It’s the first time I have seen a salad bar in Italy, and it was very good and much appreciated. The service was super fast. There is also beer and wine on tap. I would have preferred a few more chanterelles on my pizza though.

When in Italy, I always expect a higher level of the culinary finesse. Unfortunately, Panorama is void of that. Perhaps, if one is looking for a pizza and a beer it is an OK place (seems to be popular with families with kids). The soup with mushroom filled Ravioli was a bowl of thin tasteless ... can’t even call it a broth. Ravioli within had no hint of Steinpilz in them. Pasta with home smoked salmon... yeah, there was plenty of smoke flavor in that salmon but the creamy pasta sauce was as tasteless as that soup. Wife had a cordon blue ... was ok but no better than what one can get at a highway restaurant in Germany. Service ... neither fast nor with any personal touch. Normally, I expect a waiter to notice that a dish is left hardly touched and ask if it was not to expectation. The girl taking away the full plate of soup was told it was no good. Yet, no offer of a substitute or a simple: “I’ll take it off your bill”. If you are in the area and are looking for a nice, well priced, and served with care meal give the Picknick a try. Panorama meals prepared with no Love or pride. Below average.

We had an evening meal with our dog in this nice restaurant last week. It was nicely priced and the pizza was good, with a thin base and nice ingredients. Try the 2 faces one, half pizza and half calzone basically... different!

Carbonara was absolutely delightful! The splendid view definitely helped the cause. Servers were friendly and helpful with recommendations as menu was only in Italian and German.

Beautiful view, good service, good value for money. For lunch they offer day-menu, but also the full menu is available. Pizzas and calzone available after 5 pm. We went there one day for dinner, very nice pizza and calzone and other day for lunch. Chocolate mouse was also delicious.
