7-course menu at Rufino Osteria in Christianshavn – Taste Chef Alessandro Polledri’s homage to Italian traditions in rustic settings, dubbed one of the best Italian restaurants in the city

The menu is always written in Italian, but if you’re feeling lost, turn to the tables of homesick Italians for help. Revered by chefs around the city, Rufino Osteria is more than an Italian restaurant; it’s a personal tour of the country’s culinary deep cuts. Leading the kitchen is Chef Alessandro Polledri, whose influences span from his Ligurian heritage to bold Sicilian flavors. Here, Alessandro and his team immerse guests in explorations of the storied cuisine’s lesser-known traditions. The season-driven menu highlights thoughtfully sourced ingredients, including imported cheeses and cured meats, while the wine list shares the kitchen’s ethos of discovery outside of the mainstream. The result is an experience reminiscent of spontaneous holiday drop-ins to charming Roman osterias.

WHAT YOU GET

Enjoy a 7-course menu at Rufino Osteria. The menu is chef’s choice, so dishes rotate regularly and reflect the best produce of the season. Start with creamy stracciatella topped with sautéed Swiss chard and a drizzle of olive oil. Then, taste ‘crostino con brandacujun’ – a Ligurian-inspired dish of rye crostini served with creamed salted cod and potato, topped with black olives. Savor ‘asparagi con tuorlo d’uovo e maionese all’aglio orsino’ – poached asparagus topped with egg yolk gel, ramson aioli, and parmigiano foam. Taste oxtail and mortadella meatballs served with Parmigiano Reggiano cream, Bolognese-style stewed onions and tomatoes, and crisped prosciutto crudo. Revel in ‘fettuccine con ragù di scottiglia’ – handmade fettuccine served with a ragù of veal, chicken, pork sausage, and rabbit, finished with rosemary butter. Eat potato gnocchi coated in a pesto of sun-dried tomatoes from Napoli, basil, and almonds, topped with ricotta salata. For dessert, indulge in Rufino’s signature tiramisù with toasted hazelnuts, bold espresso, and rich gianduja cream.
