Gio' In Bolsena

Giò is located in a charming wine cellar carved into the tuff rock, just steps from the historic center of Bolsena. The stone walls and barrel vaults create an intimate and welcoming atmosphere, enhanced on sunny days by an elegant outdoor seating area. Many guests also appreciate the opportunity to tour the cellar and underground section, adding a touch of historical authenticity. The young and dynamic chef (born in 1989) masterfully blends tradition and innovation. After experiences with Vissani, Robuchon, and Australia, he founded this restaurant to showcase local flavors with a modern twist. The menu changes frequently based on seasonality and is divided into "lake" (lake fish) and "hill" (meat and game) tastings, each around €45 for four courses. Recommended Dishes Soft egg with purple potato purée, sheep's cheese sauce, saffron, and black truffle crumble – a striking appetizer Tench and potato tortelli in lake broth, a perfect balance of earth and water Whitefish cooked in oil and purgatory bean hummus – a freshly reinterpreted classic Rosé pigeon with blueberry sauce and chicken livers – for those who prefer a meaty main course The wine cellar is the jewel in the crown, with a special focus on Lazio labels and local sparkling wines: a true added value compared to other restaurants in the area. The staff is ready to suggest the best pairings, making the wine experience a moment of discovery.

Gio restaurant in Bolsena is a real discovery. The cuisine is excellent and refined, with vegetarian options, demonstrating thoughtfulness and inclusiveness. The friendly staff completes a high-quality dining experience. Highly recommended for those seeking quality and innovation in Bolsena.

The food is excellent. The service needs improvement. You'll have to take care of your own aperitif. Side dishes weren't asked for. There was no wine recommendation to go with the meal. The food overshadows the lack of service, which could certainly be improved.

Excellent restaurant, professional and warm service, rare welcome, rare satisfying cuisine. Thank you
