Locanda Margon

This restaurant with views of Trento and the Adige valley is home to chef Edoardo Fumagalli, who puts all his energy and creativity into three tasting menus (one of which has been designed to combine perfectly with the Ferrari sparkling wine made by the winery that owns the restaurant). His menus showcase local ingredients (especially the Straordinario Trentinomenu), which he prepares with technical expertise, occasionally combining them with produce from further afield. Our inspector especially recommends the “Arlecchino” mountain egg with Trentingrana cream, bisque reduction with Chardonnay vinegar and puffed amaranth. Although the adjacent Bistrot is designed to be more informal in character, it offers the attraction of reliable Italian cuisine and the option of alfresco dining.

• Three tasting menus, including Passione Bollicine, designed around pairings with Ferrari’s Trentodoc sparkling wines.
• A technical, clean style that keeps flavours sharp and balanced, built on ingredients, technique, and freedom of execution.
• A destination setting above Trento with valley views, plus a next door Bistrot for a more informal meal.

Signature Ingredients

• Mountain egg, used in the restaurant’s Arlecchino dish
• Trentingrana cheese
• Chardonnay vinegar, used in reductions
• Local Trentino produce, rotated through the tasting menus
• Ferrari Trentodoc sparkling wines, built into the pairing focused menu

Three tasting menus frame the kitchen at Locanda Margon, with one route built to pair with the house Trentodoc sparkling wines, another focused on Trentino’s standout ingredients in a fresh, modern register, and a third organised around nature and the raw material of the plate. The room looks out over Trento and the Adige Valley, with a more informal Bistrot next door serving Italian dishes with outdoor seating.
