Awards 2017

11/12/2025: An excellent restaurant nestled, in a good way, in the mountains of Irpinia. The road leading there, though winding, is very pleasant, relaxing, and beautiful. Inside, you enter a family-friendly, refined, and professional atmosphere, without being pretentious or stuffy. The dishes are balanced and tasty, as well as simple, making them enjoyable even for those less accustomed to a Michelin-starred restaurant. A final treat for us: a gift of a book on the best risottos, including a recipe. We thank everyone and recommend it to everyone.

29/11/2025: Very nice place, good food, and very friendly staff. Wonderful experience :)

29/11/2025: "A massage for all the senses." Excellent food, kind and friendly staff. Unique atmosphere.

23/11/2025: UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE A selection of innovative and refined dishes that enhance the flavors of traditional Italian cuisine with a touch of creativity. The service is impeccable. Federica, the maître d', is very kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. The cellar boasts a selection of high-quality wines. A unique experience for lovers of good food. Congratulations!

21/12/2025: A family-run restaurant full of character and authenticity, "Da Gigi" still manages to make every dish unique and impeccable, revisiting them or keeping them classic, accentuating everything with products made, harvested, and prepared directly by them, from the pastas to the vegetables, fruit, and even the desserts. The service is impeccable, never lacking in attention, and the waitresses are very kind and willing to help. The restaurant is furnished to find the perfect blend of refined cuisine and mountain village, which makes you feel almost at home. Although it's a long drive, upon returning, you'll realize it was worth every mile. In short, we were amazed as usual; absolutely a destination not to be missed. Highly recommended (Very careful attention to gluten-free options, the staff was attentive and super helpful.)

13/12/2025: Truly beautiful location, friendly and prepared staff, quality cuisine from appetizers to dessert. If we pass through the valley we will definitely return.

13/12/2025: It never disappoints. Always excellent.

02/11/2025: I returned to La Trota to celebrate a birthday, and for me it remains the best restaurant in Rieti, where you don't just go for the food but for a true sensory experience. The dishes are sublime in flavor. The autumn dessert of persimmons, chestnuts, and coffee meringues was truly exceptional. Definitely worth a try.

18/10/2025: Fascinating tasting experience.

31/10/2025: A truly wonderful experience at the Cavallini Restaurant in San Severino! As soon as you enter, you immediately sense the care and attention to every detail: an elegant yet welcoming space, a warm and relaxed atmosphere, and extremely kind staff, always available with a smile. The cuisine is simply extraordinary: carefully crafted, beautifully presented, and prepared with the freshest ingredients. Each course speaks to the chef's passion and expertise. The fish cappellacci are truly unique—delicate, balanced, and bursting with flavor… truly a dish worthy of applause, a small masterpiece that alone is worth the visit. The other dishes also stand out for their flavor and originality, with always spot-on pairings. My only personal complaint concerns the champagne risotto, which I found a bit too intense in flavor: for my taste, the champagne slightly overpowered the other aromas. That said, it's still a well-executed dish and a testament to the kitchen's desire to experiment. Service is fast, attentive, but never intrusive. The portions are just right, the timing between courses is perfect, and the prices are absolutely in line with the quality. It's one of those places where you eat truly well and leave feeling completely satisfied, wanting to return. Highly recommended for those seeking high-end cuisine, without too much formality but with lots of passion and authentic flavor.

11/10/2025: High quality cuisine that combines tradition and creativity with balance. I recommend the fish. Very well-kept cellar. Delicious desserts.

17/06/2025: Un buon ristorante. Ambiente poco accogliente e la toilette era mancante di carta igienica.

15/05/2025: non è stata la prima volta che ci siamo stati,ed è stata una giornata molto bella e molto squisita !

10/11/2025: This was our second stay at Il Borgo but it won't be the last. The staff, from top to bottom, are dedicated to their jobs and you can tell they love working there. The wait and kitchen staff at La Taverna and La Sala dei Grappoli are true professionals. We enjoyed one meal at each and both were the highlights of our visit. We will happily make reservations next spring when we have our annual spring trip to Toscana. Keep up the great work!

01/11/2025: Our stay at Castello Banfi was the one the best vacation experiences. The staff was excellent and just the best. We loved every minute of our stay at Castello Banfi. La Taverna was amazing, the food excellent. We will do everything we can to stay again.

29/11/2025: Everything was impeccable: from the raw materials to the service.

20/11/2025: Beautiful ambiance, excellent service, and delicious food, most of the dishes exceptional. The only flaw in this dinner was that, amidst this wonderful blend of flavors, the first course on the ten-course menu lacked a bit of flavor, and the cacio e pepe lacked creativity. Perhaps by choice, but my imagination was a bit underwhelmed. The pralines to finish were exceptional.
