The story
Tucked into Torino’s San Donato neighborhood, Angolo Goloso earns a stellar 4.7-star rating, but local creator Franchino Er Criminale offers a grounded perspective. In his *Forni criminali* series, he calls it “decent” and “nothing exceptional”—a reliable spot rather than a destination worth a special trip. He notes that the focaccia is “okay,” while the schiacciatine are “good.” Specific offerings include Focaccia Rossa, Focaccia Bianca, a Schiacciatina Rossa con Spezie, and Frappe Ricce.
The verdict: a pleasant neighborhood stop with a warm, casual vibe, but not one that demands a detour. For those nearby, it’s a dependable bakery-pastry shop for a quick bite—just don’t expect fireworks. The straightforward offerings feel right at home in San Donato, exactly as Franchino described, making it a solid local option rather than a culinary landmark.

A decent bakery-pastry shop in San Donato, but nothing exceptional — the focaccia is okay, the schiacciatine are good, but overall it's not worth a special trip.
Dishes mentioned
Focaccia Rossa
The focaccia rossa has a nice color, with oil and salt, but the dough is a bit too thick and could have been cooked better — it's slightly white inside. The tomato on top is good, but the white focaccia works better. I'd give it a 7.5.
Focaccia Bianca
The white focaccia is well-seasoned, I like that it's well-seasoned. It's good, decent. I'd give it a 7.5.
Schiacciatina Rossa con Spezie
These round red schiacciatine with spices intrigued me, and I was right to be intrigued — the dough is strange but good, with a spicy kick almost like Indian food. Very good, I'd give them an 8.
Frappe Ricce
I took a handful of frappe ricce. I've had better frappe — they could have been cooked better. Pleasant but nothing more. I'd give them a 7.
