The food was carefully prepared and presented But after five months in Umbria searching several times a week for something other than tipico with almost no success I can without hesitation say that Umbrian food is often...

Orvieto is one of the birthplaces of the Slow Foods Movement. The food here seems to be all completely handmade from scratch using locally sourced products. You can really taste how fresh this food is.

One of the best places to eat all over Italy, believe me. The restaurant decoration is simple, but the food proposal is amazing, typical Orvieto preparation made with exquisite taste and love.

We ate in the restaurant twice during our stay and felt privileged to do so. Meats... More

My wife and I were eagerly recommended this place by a shop keeper near the church. Despite the directions on the back we did have to ask a few times where it was. But it was oh so worth it. The food is interesting and delicious. The owner/chef specializes in recreating traditional Umbrian dishes. And with this comes much extra... More
