Born from a love of Italian tradition

Taverna started as a dream shared over a bottle of Barolo. Chef Marco and his wife Elena wanted to bring the flavors of Piedmont to the heart of the city — not a replica, but a living interpretation that honors tradition while embracing the present.

Every morning, our team visits local farms and markets. Every evening, those ingredients become something extraordinary on your plate. No shortcuts, no frozen anything, no compromise.

Behind Every Plate

👨‍🍳

Chef Marco Bellini

Executive Chef & Co-Owner

With 18 years in professional kitchens and training under two Michelin-starred chefs in Milan, Marco brings a depth of technique and an unwavering commitment to ingredient quality that defines every dish at Taverna.

His philosophy is simple: start with the best ingredients you can find, treat them with respect, and let their natural flavors lead. The result is food that feels both familiar and extraordinary.

“Cooking is not about complexity. It's about finding the soul of each ingredient and letting it sing.”
