Circolo dei lettori Reviews

A place with a great atmosphere in a historic building in Turin, the Circolo dei readers with always interesting events. You eat excellent Piedmontese cuisine, especially snails and an excellent priest's hat. Impeccable service.

Best place ever in Torino. Had a glass of a lovely white wine, sat in a beautiful room and enjoyed listening to Italians talking about their lives. Little gem.

Splendid ancient building in the center of Turin, equipped with decorated rooms used as study rooms, conference rooms and bars: to visit absolutely in a few minutes!

Excellent restaurant as well as the staff. Excellent dishes with attention to the smallest detail. Location in a context that combines culture and food in the best way.

Very valid and altruistic staff, always puts you at ease

Gorgeous environment. Bar that offers an excellent aperitif in a spectacular setting. Not to be missed. Events are also organized.

The place is very beautiful. Never would the passing cumune imagine that this noble palace there is a restaurant.
Very good prices considering the "location" It was Valentine's Day and the evening was excellent.
The sommelier, (Japanese) was good at explaining the wine served.
To try. Best to book.

A beautiful place where very interesting meetings are organized

Fascinating atmospheres evenings of reading presentations and events. Consult the site for news.

Ristornate in palazzo storico di Torino. Centralissimo. Personale cortese. Aperti a alternative vegetariane. Piatti molto curati.

Gorgeous historic palace where you can go have a drink, have a bite, read, study, write... beautiful large rooms with an antique traditional look. It also offer literary activities such as readings, conferences and the like. People that work there are very nice and make you feel pampered together with the place.
If I had to write a book I would definitely go there.

Beautiful location, always interesting and quality events. Too bad for someone on the staff, downright rude. Ah, and give us I'm WIFI !!!!

Elegant and informal at the same time, pregnant with art, culture and a calm and reflective atmosphere ...

I have had the peace of going to this delightful restaurant twice and for both I can say I am extremely satisfied. Fantastic dishes, welcoming staff and very quiet rooms and perfect picture frames give a perfect touch of style for an intimate and pleasant evening. I recommend everyone to have this wonderful experience !!

Suggestive "old Turin" environment with cultural influences ... surely you feel in an exclusive place. The cuisine is equally so: we do not forget that we are in Piedmont but the interpretation is original without overflowing. The choice of wines is interesting and sometimes even a bit brave. Attentive and professional service, reserved up to the risk of being a little "cold" (still Turin?)

Beautiful for everyone, attending this sacred place for every human being invigorates the spirit and elevates us from the animal to the human ecumene with its doubts and contradictions ....

Pleasant place and always full of interesting initiatives. Maybe a few more chairs wouldn't hurt

Cucina fantasiosa, vini molto buoni, ambiente raffinato

Beautiful place in a truly impressive period building. The restaurant is absolutely excellent. Equally adequate service

A large reading room with all the newspapers. Conferences. Great buffet bars.

Quiet and refined environment it is worth spending a few hours of relaxation

It is always interesting to participate in the events promoted by this club

Going to see The great Leo Ortolani at the readers' club was a fantastic experience

Good circle, friendly staff, excellent experience, to be repeated.

Wonderful location of the past for a reading or a coffee with friends

Excellent cultural point in the center of Turin with a meeting program that is always valid only flaw in the reservations if you are a member some advantage there is otherwise you have to show up if there are seats maybe you enter differently you come home I would say from the third world give the opportunity to everyone by paying to attend when you reach the full stop there is the web the whole world turns like this, not here!

Place of other times !!! I have a photo from several years ago in the same place ... gorgeous

Beautiful room, very kind staff, interesting evening!

Very good restaurant. The dishes are well presented, the waiters are very friendly and precise in what they do. The particular place has a charm of other times, it seems to be in a 19th century room. The prices are in accordance with the place, with the refinement of colors and taste. Recommended.

Excellent dishes, new flavors, seductive combinations ... with so much, so much kindness

A place of culture, full of interesting events, the interiors of the building are fantastic

Location in the ancient Graneri della Roccia palace rich in stuccoes, paintings, stairways and courtyard

Place perhaps a bit exclusive but efficient. Well organized ticket office. Friendly staff.

A beautiful place, a forge of culture, many initiatives, places to go to for reading, pleasant environments inside a splendid building. And if you want you can also eat.

Posto elegante e di classe per tutti quelli che amano la cultura. Sempre un calendario ricco di eventi

Those who like a classic environment, which reminds you of the muffled atmosphere of the RAI dramas of the last century. Very good and well presented food and prompt and kind service. Price in line with environment and quality.

Very welcoming and reserved place. Very competent and quality staff.

Nice place but cold there is no one who welcomes you everyone minds his own business. You have to bring the companies. A good book and friends a buffet and there are no differences.

beautiful and refined, with several activities for children, but most useful for those who live in Turin. Refined, too much, and relatively expensive. You easily spend 50/60.

An enchanting place full of knowledge and opportunities for comparison.

Haute cuisine, impeccable service, pleasant atmosphere with an ancient but not heavy flavor, fair price, excellent choice of wines, original dishes by the great chef Stefano, a great gentleman!

An exceptional place to spend time reading and sipping a good tea.

In a historical place in the center of Turin, refined cuisine

Ottima atmosfera e personale giovane e professionale!

Outstanding cuisine. Historic and well-kept location. Impeccable service.

an excellence of turin and of the unique Piedmont in Italy

Tonight wonderful evening with matador Max Pezzali and Zerocalcare

Very elegant historic building that hosts events of interest.

Enchanting palace, atmosphere of other times that strikes as soon as you cross the beautiful entrance door .... worth a visit ....

Wonderful old building in the center of Turin. Environment restored with incredible taste, in respect of history, but with an eye to a fine and thoughtful contemporaneity. The events organized, both for adults and for children, are very successful, level and well managed.

A starry experience.
Starting from the welcome to the service to the kitchen, everything was perfect.
I particularly appreciated the Plin with roast sauce, the perfection with which it is made, in terms of flavor, clarity, I found it sublime.

Simply fantastic.
A club that I would like to attend regularly.

restaurant rich in personal history excel professional attentive a real brigade Stefano Fanti transmits emotions in the dishes! Compliments

Great supermarket. Prices aligned with the competition but relationship with the most personal customer. Recommended

Great and refined I went for an elegant birthday dinner and everything was fine and good

I had the pleasure of meeting the Circolo dei Lettore because I attended the "Dreams between dream and reality" event of my dear friend and colleague Elena Givone. Cozy place in a period building in the heart of Turin, very close to Piazza Vittorio, Piazza Castello, via Po and the Egyptian museum

An unexpectedly beautiful place inside the old university building. The frescoes in the hall and its structure are the setting for the restaurant that offers simple and quick dishes

An environment for the dissemination of culture from which you always get better and which I really like.

Restaurant at a very elegant ancient learned society/arts venue. Very good meal. Tasting menu is surprisingly cheap for the ambience and good range of dishes. Reservation on Tripadvisor/thefork.it.

Restaurant in a beautiful historic central location. Located in the basement, pleasant with paintings and carpets. Piedmontese menu of meat but also fish. Great desserts. Attentive and professional service. Correct prices.

Very beautiful and charming palace. I attended a book presentation. Excellent organization even though there were many of us and not all of them managed to find a place.

I brought two colleagues from the US and I had a very good feedback. Hearing from an American that he had there the best veal in his life it's certainly an awesome appreciation. I have to say that the location is elegant and sober at the same time and that the service was impeccable. I strongly recommend this place

Amazing building, a must to visit and to see the interior

A welcoming place where you can relax by reading a good book or having an excellent aperitif! On Saturdays they organize Brunch!
It is also home to a lot of cultural encounters.

Very interesting conferences. Presentation of the books and meetings with the authors. Very refined environment

A famous and appreciated club in the Turin culture. A meeting place for writers, editors, journalists and lovers of news and knowledge. In addition to the presentation of books, meetings, debates, round tables where almost all of them are free to participate and the sectors are many disparate between sports, adventure, novels, history etc.
In addition, an excellent restaurant (starred) offers seasonal and refined specialties that distinguish it with the possibility of celebrating various anniversaries and themed dinners.
With the possibility of renting the different types of rooms, they are a beautiful setting for those who want to promote their own event.

An impactful historical place, where culture is the fulcrum.

Having made our reservation well in advance, it took us a little while for us to find the restaurant. It is in a library, surrounded by books and old portraits of intellectuals. The service was impeccable as was the food. The only glitch was that the mussels soup had octopus and my fiance didn t know or like. Nice

Very familiar place, both for the study and for the proposed events

Elegante e raffinato. Cibo ottimo e gentilezza superba dello staff. Conto equo.
Vini e liquori all'altezza di una location, nel suo complesso, davvero notevole.
Stra consigliato

It is a wonderful place in the city of Turin open to all, where I often take friends to appreciate Something unique in Turin is rare in the rest of Italy. enjoying an 18th century building with deckchairs and armchairs, strewn with books for everyone is something truly wonderful. As well as enjoying concerts, shows and conferences and also being able to take advantage of the restaurant and the bar, chatting with new people is a gem that I always point out is the wonderful staircase that frames the entrance to the restaurant and the bathroom, a gem of architecture for me.

Nice to study, and nice press review on Saturday morning. Too bad for the internet connection, which only members win.
