Had lunch here after coming up to Bergamo Alta on the second stage Funicular. After a quick look round at the castle and some magnificent views, we opted for the San Vigilio on the menu choice and the view from the terrace where we had our lunch. Staff very friendly and helpful and excellent service. The food was excellent for... More

The restaurant is just steps away of the upper station of the San Vigilio funicular, very convenient. We were offered a table next to one of the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking a peaceful valley, a beautiful view indeed. Both of us had a pizza, which were nice, but I'd give the "best pizza in or around Bergamo" award to another establishment.... More

What wonderful ambiance, amazing selections of thin-crust pizza, great menu in addition to pizza and a view to die for. While sitting on an open air but covered veranda one wants to work through a bottle of wine, slowly nibbl;e the pizza to get from lunch to dinner. What a beautiful spot, and if you stop to eat following some... More

Had lunch here twice during our short stay in Bergamo and thought this was the best restaurant we ate in. Situated in peaceful area at the top of the second funicular with stunning views. Had very good pizza cooked in authentic wood burning stove on first visit. Second time round had pea veloute and meatballs "al nonna" - delicious. On... More

As the restaurant is at the end of the second funicular it enjoys the best views. The prices are OK, service is good. They had lost the booking of our group of 13 but as we arrived early they managed to accommodate us. Nice experience but La Colombina is way better both for food and the views.

We came across this restaurant totally by chance. We had spent the morning and afternoon in the Citta Alta in Bergamo, having arrived by funicular from the lower town. Once in the Citta Alta there is a second funicular which takes you up to San Vigilio where there is an old castle and a few restaurants. We came across the... More

While visiting Bergamo, take a funicular from the beautiful Citta Alta to San Vigilio where you will be awarded with wonderful views. The San Vigilio Ristorante Pizzeria is situated very close to the funicular station and it is worth asking for a table on the terrace to enjoy the fabulous view while enjoying your meal. We arrived just after 12... More
