Alla Vedova In Udine

29/08/2025: Simple traditional Friulian dishes, mostly meat-based, with steak as the star. They're well-cooked, if a bit fatty. The atmosphere is very family-friendly, but the restaurant itself leaves much to be desired.

17/08/2025: I stopped by Maurizio's for the first time four years ago, purely by chance. My boyfriend and I were pilgrims on the Camino Celeste that connects Grado to Mount Lussari. It was raining that day, and at Maurizio's we didn't just find a place to shelter from the rain. We found welcoming, hospitable faces, good wine, and amazing meat! That day we left with the intention of returning as soon as possible, even if only to give thanks for those moments we shared, to relive happy times. Today, four years later, by car, as newlyweds, with a small child for company, we returned to that beloved place. We found it renovated compared to the past, in the aesthetics of the outdoor veranda and the impeccable quality of the dishes served. We enjoyed two New Zealand roast beef steaks (with potatoes and mixed vegetables) so tender they could be cut with a fork. Our little one ate his well-done steak, and to finish, we indulged in a parfait with Amaro del Capo liqueur, something we'd never tasted before. What can I say...it was worth it. Places where we feel good are always worth it...thank you, Maurizio and Enrico, for making us feel like lucky pilgrims on this journey, as sweet as life itself!
