Antica Trattoria delle Grotte In Pastena

A unique place to rediscover traditional flavors. The owner, Domenico, is exceptional.

A charming trattoria, still in its 1970s glory, complete with a telephone booth. The charming gentleman welcomes us like a local. The set menu is unpretentious, and for €20 you can't get more: fettuccine with meat sauce, a main course of skewered sausage, with baked potatoes, water, wine, coffee, and amaro.

Domenico is a kind person with a welcoming atmosphere and authentic cuisine.

Characteristic trattoria, good food and authenticity are the strong points... great Domenico

Great Domenico always number ONE 🔝

The magnificent caves and the nearby trattoria are a welcoming and friendly place where you can eat good, genuine food.

We had a wonderful meal, with wine and liqueur made by the owner, for the fixed price of 20 euros. The owner served us with courtesy and kindness. The restaurant is also located opposite the Pastena Caves parking lot. Highly recommended!
