In the heart of Lavarone Chiesa, overlooking the renewed Piazza Italia and just a few steps from the lake, Ristorante Pizzeria Esperia is a place that tells the story of the mountains through hospitality, flavour, and conviviality.
Family-run, it represents an authentic table of Alpe Cimbra, welcoming everyone: families, couples, young travellers, seniors, and passing guests, in a simple yet refined atmosphere that is warm and genuine.
During the warmer months, the experience extends outdoors thanks to the wooden terrace, ideal for open-air lunches, breathing in the mountain air, and embracing the slow rhythm of the village.
Inside, the dining room welcomes guests with an elegant and contemporary style: natural wood, soft LED lighting, and paintings depicting local landscapes create a refined yet familiar environment, where every detail invites togetherness.
The gastronomic offer is a true journey through the flavours of Trentino.
The menu features starters, first courses, main dishes, and desserts inspired by Alpine tradition: from speck to lucanica sausage, from the iconic Vezzena cheese of Lavarone to canederli, from carne salada to venison, and finishing with the classic apple strudel from Val di Non—a symbol of a cuisine that smells of home and memory.
Great attention is also given to high-quality meat, featured in dishes such as fillet and tagliata, carefully selected and enhanced through simple, essential cooking that highlights the raw ingredients.
Alongside traditional cuisine, Esperia is also a pizzeria: pizzas range from timeless classics such as margherita and capricciosa to more original creations enriched with local products like lucanica, porcini mushrooms, and other regional ingredients.
The experience is completed with a selection of Trentino and South Tyrolean wines, along with good beer, offering a complete and authentic taste journey.
Ristorante Pizzeria Esperia is not just a place to eat well, but a space where guests feel welcomed, where the territory comes alive in the dishes and hospitality becomes part of the experience.
An ideal destination for those who want to discover the flavours of Trentino in a familiar, elegant setting deeply rooted in the identity of Alpe Cimbra.
