Il Cacciatore In Civitella roveto

Very good and authentic I recommend booking, especially on holidays.

We found this restaurant by chance and were delighted. We tried the cheeses and game, everything was delicious. The service was fast, but they should pay more attention to the wines. We'll be back!

When I think of the Abruzzo hinterland, there's one word that immediately conjures up images of local cuisine: game. And what better place than a restaurant called Il Cacciatore to sample game-based dishes? The rather modern restaurant somewhat betrays the rustic feel its name suggests, but the atmosphere remains warm and familiar thanks to the friendly and attentive service. We began with a platter of cheeses of varying ages, produced directly on the premises: a true delight! Each cheese had a distinct personality, with intense flavors that were never overpowering. From the one aged in whiskey to the real winner of the dish, the chestnut cheese, every bite was an explosion of flavor. The first course was the star of the dinner: homemade pappardelle with wild boar ragù. While the pasta was perfectly rolled out and cooked, the ragù surpassed this excellence thanks to the balanced flavors and the taste of the quality meat. Many compliments indeed. Moving on to the main courses, we shared some grilled tagliata and the mixed game, consisting of wild boar, roe deer, and venison. The tagliata were excellent, especially the one with porcini mushrooms, cooked to our specifications and enhanced by the smoky aroma and flavor of the grill. The mixed game, however, was the sore point of the evening: alongside a wild boar stew that was probably one of the best I've ever tasted, there was a roe deer that was too dry and tough, with an excessively gamey flavor, and a venison that was also integer and lacking any distinctive flavor. A real shame. The side dish of turnip greens partially improved the situation, pairing the dishes well. The red wine and Abruzzo gentian were fully approved; the local options are numerous and delicious. I'll definitely be back when I'm in Abruzzo again, especially to try that wild boar, which is truly worth it. The prices are truly excellent.

Every time I come to eat at your place I always say that if I were to die, I would die happy!

The food is masterfully prepared. Everything is excellent and the price is affordable. I'll be back soon.

The place is very nice and clean, the food is very good as appetizer and other thanks a lot and good work and thanks a lot I will come back again soon

Very good food I highly recommend

Il Cacciatore is the reference restaurant in the area, home-made cuisine, great quality and abundant dishes alone would be enough to define the place, but in addition the welcome, professionalism and great availability of the staff make it an even better place, and it doesn't end there, the prices are also very affordable. The quality-price ratio is incredible, you eat a lot, everything is delicious and you spend very little. If you pass through those parts you can't help but stop, but even if you live far away and want to take a trip, in any case you won't regret it 👍🏼

A good restaurant where you'll find dishes made with local products, good food, and friendly staff. Try the hunter's appetizer; there are many delicious selections.
