Via Del Gusto Osteria & Vinothek

Via Del Gusto in Widnau brings a taste of authentic Italy to the Rhine Valley—with a small, seasonal menu, freshly prepared dishes, and select wines and specialties from small producers

Via Del Gusto is a family-run osteria and wine bar in Widnau in the St. Gallen Rhine Valley. Chantal, who has Tuscan roots, and Florian, from South Tyrol, bring their personal connection to Italy to the plate and the glass.

What sets it apart is the intentionally small, seasonally changing menu featuring freshly prepared dishes based on time-honored Italian recipes. The menu includes antipasti, pasta, select meat dishes, and exquisite dolci—paired with Italian wines from small producers.

The wine shop also serves as a retail space where guests can discover wines and Italian specialties and purchase them to enjoy at home. Via Del Gusto is perfect for a cozy meal for two, a tavolata with friends, or a special occasion.

Thanks to its location in Widnau, a visit here can be easily combined with a trip to the St. Gallen Rhine Valley, Lake Constance, the Appenzell region, or neighboring Vorarlberg.
