I couldn't believe it: so close to the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi, just 50 meters away, there's such a beautiful structure. Evocative interiors with carved rock, a magnificent garden outside, and truly beautiful lava stone tables. Luckily, I took the advice: I came and had a truly wonderful meal.

The garden is beautiful, well-kept with plants and colorful, uniquely crafted lava stone tables. The brickwork throughout makes the atmosphere even more welcoming. The interior is also fantastic, with a charming and characterful dining room.
The staff is truly helpful, and the food is delicious: it's definitely not a touristy place, despite the very reasonable prices. And it's worth noting: it's just 50 steps from the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi.

I reluctantly leave a review for La Bella Selva Assisi, because I would prefer for this gem of a restaurant to remain my little secret!
Would you like a rooftop/terrace experience in Assisi with beautiful views and fantastic food?
If yes, then come to this hidden spot in Assisi. Perfect for lunch and then stroll down the hill to visit the Basilica of Saint Francis. Or come in the evening and be surrounded with the soft lighting of Assisi.
You won't be disappointed!
Thank you Veronica and the staff here who do an incredible job with a smile! 🥰

La Bella Selva is a magnificent discovery from Assisi, right above the Basilica of San Francesco. You imagine a tourist place and you find a magnificent garden with a beautiful restaurant where you can also have a cocktail, since they also have a bar and an Apericena.

In addition to the familiar garden, we found some splendid, colorful lava stone tables that truly evoke the idea of summer and the sun's healing energy. The food is always fantastic. Perhaps even better with the many truffle dishes we adore. La Bella Selva is always a great choice.

"Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful... from the terrace to the interior, from the setting to the view: everything is thoughtfully designed and truly delightful. The building is charming and the food is delicious. An unexpected setting, just 50 meters from the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi. Look for it and you'll discover a truly wonderful place to stay."

“Beautiful place, a real surprise: a little hidden, but definitely worth seeking out (luckily the internet helps us discover these gems these days!). The food is exquisite, top-quality: the carpaccio was truly memorable. The prices are absolutely reasonable considering the experience.”
