About Top Italian RestaurantsThe quality of the “cucina italiana” abroad has reached a new level. Gambero Rosso has released the third edition of the digital guide to Italian restaurants around the world. For rating places Gambero Rosso calls its well-known system: from one to three, forks for fine dining restaurants, shrimps for bistrot and trattorias, pizza slices for pizzerias and bottles for wine bars and enoteca.
Authentic character, product traceability, purity of flavors (cucina italiana can’t exist without a proper extra-virgin olive oil), service and the quality of the wine list were important criteria. From the 100,000 estimated eating places that serve up our traditions in wine and food, Gambero Rosso selected 600 for now – as the guide will expand month by month.
