"This restaurant is a wonderful example of genuine, regional Umbrian cooking and food, in a small, unspoiled, rural village in the mountains. Our food was superb, starting with a very large antipasti of local cured meats and cheese. A delicious, complementary appetiser followed: courgette flower stuffed with anchovy and mozzarella, fried in a light batter. The secondi was a rich tagliatelle with beef and tomato ragu and then came the primi piatti of fresh local trout, roasted on the wood fired barbecue, served with salad. The experience of watching the chef cook this on the old, outdoor barbecue was fascinating and a great way to enjoy the local wine whilst digesting the previous courses! Our dessert of the classic Tiramisu, 'fatti in casa ' was a lovely end to an excellent meal. The service was excellent as was the whole experience, and the only downside was that we were the only customers. Sadly this may be because the area is still recovering from the 2016 earthquake which damaged the village, so this restaurant needs all the customers it can get, as is the case for many businesses in the area. The price was very good for the menu we had, which included a litre of wine, bottled water, bread and coffee, at 35 euros a head. The outdoor terrace, where we ate, was a beautiful location to enjoy the stunning views and sunset, making this a wonderful meal served by lovely friendly Italian people and a unique experience. You must visit!"
