"I stumbled upon Siegi's by chance while exploring the South Tirol wine region on a sunny autumn day. Siegi's is an extremely small restaurant, having four tables in the dining room and two tables in the bar area and five stools at the bar. The restaurant is cozily decorated for informal dining and it is more like being in someone's nice home rather than a restaurant. Tables have paper placemats, paper napkins, everyday utensils plus a great steak knife. Three types of regional artisan breads were served in a paper bag. Siegi speaks limited English though he was helpful in explaining items on his menu. The menu is written in German on a chalkboard and there were two or three types of antipasto dishes to choose from, two soups, two pasta dishes and four or five entrees and one dessert. I started my meal with an assortment of five bruschetta's; each topped with a different topping and all very delicious. One was topped with strips of speck (cured smoked ham); another with marinated eggplant; another with sliced lard and an anchovy; another with fresh tomatoes and the last was topped with a Gorgonzola type cheese. I then enjoyed a large bowl of linguini tossed with small cubes of tender beef in a scrumptious tomato sauce. The portion was generous in size and I used some of the bread to mop up the remaining sauce. Prices were reasonable with the above meal, plus a glass of wine, a small bottle of water and a cafe totaled 25 Euros. I enjoyed my meal and the setting so much that I plugged Siegi's into my navigator as a saved favorite for the next time I'm the area. I highly recommend Siegi's to the TripAdvisor community."
