for TripAdvisor the best Italian restaurant is Lido 84 – Italian Cuisine

There are still mysteries and inconsistencies, but in the Travelers 'Choice the Camanini brothers' restaurant is in 18th place: a result that gives credibility to the ranking. But it is also true that of our eleven three-starred, not one is among the top 25 …

What if the average TripAdvisor user weren't all that different from those who feel they are the custodians of the palate? We thought about it and discovered that in the Traveller's Choice 2020 – reserved for the best of the world's best in each category, from beaches to hotels and therefore also restaurants – the best venue in our country (for fine dining, then, there is another ranking for the so-called middle range) is Lido 84 in Gardone Riviera, 18th overall. The suspicion that there have been improvements in valuations in recent years comes naturally in the light of the result: the wedding favor of brothers Camanini is a Michelin star – with many experts and enthusiasts who find the lack of the second absurd, for the record – as well as Cinque Cappelli dell’Espresso and Tre Forchette del Gambero Rosso. That wasn't enough, in the latest edition of the T.he World’s 50 Best Restaurants – that of 2019, this year was not held due to the pandemic – it won the One to Watch award which is a clear anticipation of entering the absolute elite. Good TripAdvisor reviewers? Calm.

The Italian top ten

For example, it is perplexing that our kitchen – never so popular – can only place two other restaurants in the top 25: Quintessence in Trani and Don Alfonso 1890 in Sant’Agata dei Due Golfi, among other things exactly behind Lido 84. For the record, behind the three places mentioned, in our country there are Cum Quibus in San Gimignano, Villa Crespi in Orta San Giulio (first last year), Vun of the Park Hyatt Milan, Ensama Pesce in Sala Bolognese, From Vittorio to Brusaporto, Piazza Duomo to Alba and Seta of the Mandarin Oriental Milano. All starred, with a large number of foreigners, apart from Ensama Pesce who does not appear in the guides, but has been in the top ten for several years. Quite right? Mistaken? Who knows.

The usual French

Certainly, the theory is confirmed that in every ranking (of experts, journalists, people) the French are absolute protagonists. In the first place of the Travelers' choice 2020, there is a three-starred from beyond the Alps: Auberge du Vieux Puits in Fontjoncouse, followed by The Ville Blanche, a single macaron and historic address led by the Italian-born chef Yvann Guglielmetti. In short, France lives. Even if you don't see the current No. 1 in the world – Mirazur in Menton – not even mentioned, leaves you speechless. But then one reflects that like the good Colagreco, they ignore our national hero Bottura and think that we are on par with the hated cousins.

South America at the top

That wasn't enough, there is the rest of the world ranking where (only) the insiders know the premises – and therefore it is not a question of scarsoni – but we remain perplexed about their placement and the absence of the phenomena. The third in the Travelers's Choice – Chila in Buenos Aires – is 29th in the Latin American ranking of The World’s 50 Best Restaurants while the fifth – Leo in Bogota – travels in eighth place and sixth is Aramburu in Buenos Aires: a room with 16 seats, where the chef Gonzalo Aramburu prepares Argentine meat with the technique of molecular cuisine. Well … And that TripAdvisor has a soft spot for South America is proved by the eighth place of 040 in Santiago (37th in The World’s 50 Best Restaurants). Fourth is Oldstead Black Swan, pub – but with a Michelin star – which had won the ranking last year. The top ten is completed by a transalpine two star hotel (the hotel restaurant The Maison d’à Côté in Montlivault, seventh), the Japanese Ise Sueyoshi (great kaiseki in Nishiazabu, ninth) and the English three-star The Fat Duck, in Bray, with the famous Heston Blumenthal directing.

How TripAdvisor works

It is worth remembering that, for those who work in the sector, TripAdvisor remains more of a cross than a delight (complete with complaints, trials and atavistic doubts about the veracity of the reviews); while for those the cure is pure mathematics. The site emphasizes that the popularity ranking "is based on an algorithm designed to provide a statistical measure of trust regarding the current experience at a facility". The factors that determine the ranking are "the quality, topicality and quantity of reviews that a facility receives from users, as well as the consistency of these reviews over time". In short, it does not go in spans, but it is it is clear that the number of reports – obviously, better if largely positive – remains a determining factor for climbing the mountain.

The best in the mid-range

An illuminating example, returning to our Ensama Pesce: opened in 2013, it was already fourth in 2017 and as we write it boasts a very high percentage of approval: 1091 reviews out of 1255 are excellent while joining scarce is bad it gets to 31. It's the perfect representation of TripAdvisor logic. But if this reasoning makes you smile on the Sala Baganza club, it is equally true for the formidable Lido 84: it is the # 1 of the 2020 Travelers Choice – which had to skip months of reviews here and there around the world, it should be remembered – because out of 1166 reviews boasts 804 excellent, 109 very good, 31 medium, 16 scarce and 13 bad. For the record, those with a negative sign appear to be delusional or in bad faith for almost all, but this is a separate chapter. One last curiosity remains about TripAdvisor's awards for 2020, those for the mid-range. Here are the top three in Italy: Chalet Plan Gorret in Courmayeur, Osteria del Grillo in Orvieto, Trattoria La Goccia in Desenzano. With great sincerity, we marked them on the notepad: we do not know them (and we can't wait to try them).
