Il Buon Gusto da Valerio In Ciampino

18/02/2025: During our visit to Villa d'Este, we stopped in this place for a quick meal. The service was attentive and the staff, both at the tables and at the counter, were friendly and helpful. The aperitif was particularly appreciated, especially the Spritz with honey and ginger liqueur, truly excellent. The €10 platter was good, although we noticed that some customers had been served little extras, probably because it was approaching closing time. Unfortunately, not all the dishes convinced us: the Omega 3 salad did not live up to expectations, with dry bread and not very fresh salmon. The piadinas did not satisfy us and the sandwich with bresaola, served hot, would have been better served cold. Attention to detail could also be improved: the bathroom lacked toilet paper and, upon request, we were provided with simple napkins. Overall, the place has strong points, such as the friendliness of the staff and the aperitif, but some aspects of the cuisine and service could be improved to offer a more balanced experience between quality and price.
