Il Bastione: the upscale Italian restaurant in Lille
Yes, Il Bastione does indeed belong to Bottega, like a handful of excellent Italian restaurants in Lille. But, if we choose to include Il Bastione in this top list instead of Bottega, it's because the menu is not exclusively made up of pizzas. Here, fresh pasta, lasagna, scallopa alla milanese, ravioli, and risotto that changes depending on the arrival of fresh daily products are also on offer! Of course, the delicious pizzas we know are also available, making Il Bastione one of our favorite Italian restaurants: an ultra complete and upscale menu!
