07/11/2025: Rossella keeps her promise! I've been wanting to try this restaurant in Tufo, near Carsoli, for at least two years. It's changed the face of Abruzzo's restaurant scene.
Despite being open for several years, I only recently heard about it, and every time I called, there were no seats. For a while, they managed to keep it a "secret," but then, little by little, word spread, and word of mouth spread the word about these immense, outsized, and exceptional ravioli.
We managed to get there on a Monday in October for lunch, and in addition to the famous ravioli, we also tried a fresh pasta dish with porcini mushrooms and truffles, the memory of which still delights me.
The French fries are REAL, enough to light a candle to the Madonna.
The service is prompt; sure, you might have to wait a bit, but the wait is worth it.
The prices are more than fair, and that's a bonus!
My only complaint, a matter of personal preference, is that the tomato sauce is a bit too smooth; I prefer a more rustic, full-bodied texture. However, this in no way detracts from the satisfaction of eating at Rossella's.
Lunch also included the spectacle of watching the food being eaten at the tables around us.
Good heavens, I've rarely seen people manage to gorge on such quantities of food. It felt like we were back in the fabulous '70s.
My compliments to this wonderful business, carried out with passion and undoubtedly a lot of hard work!
Thank you
