Il Ginepro In Castelnovo ne' monti

Very very nice restaurant, excellent food, friendly staff

Well-kept, excellent cuisine, helpful staff, reservations recommended

Warm and familiar atmosphere; a bit like feeling at home. Traditional cuisine, well-prepared. Mushrooms alone are worth the trip, and cappelletti in brodo are worthy of the name. Prices are reasonable for the quality of service and food. Go there, you won't regret it.

We arrived at Ginepro after a day of trekking on our way back from Pietra di Bismantova, and were greeted with kindness and hospitality. The rooms were spacious, and the hot shower revitalized us. We decided to have dinner there and were truly satisfied with the dishes they served, all delicious and high-quality, and we finished with a delicious dessert of their own making. Even though we had to leave earlier than usual, they still served us breakfast and also added some excellent sandwiches for the journey. We absolutely recommend it, we hope to return!!!

Sunday lunch with the family in this little corner of paradise, a renovated rustic restaurant, where you can eat in a tastefully renovated old stable at the foot of the Bismantova rock, in a tiny hamlet that includes the building, a church, and an enchanting view. Welcoming and attentive staff, traditional dishes with a focus on raw ingredients and respect for their origins. The wine list highlights the local area, featuring little-known gems worthy of note. Special mention goes to the nettle tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms, fried mushrooms, tortelli, and a roast rabbit with olives, capers, and cherry tomatoes, which is rarely found so well-roasted and succulent inside a restaurant (of such a high standard). Desserts... Oh well...for the first time I ate a torta verde and a tagliatelle cake as God intended (almost like my mother's)... I was moved! Usually, in other restaurants in the area, I've always found the 6-star service... that is, mediocre cakes that, at worst, taste like cardboard... not here!! So much stuff!!! The price is just above the average for a restaurant/agriturismo, but it's worth it!...for the commitment to sourcing the raw materials, the processing, and the service. More than satisfying portions. Last but not least: to wash it down, a wide selection of house-made liqueurs... cordial, grape strawberry, cherry, elderflower, coffee, rosolio, and I can't remember anymore... P.S. If you're looking for a full menu from a mediocre trattoria or agriturismo for €20-25, go elsewhere. Here you'll find quality, substance, and gratification... And quality comes at a price! (Not much more, though.) Highly recommended! A firm contender in my top ten of quality restaurants!

A restaurant with just the right number of dishes, including homemade tagliatelle d'optica, among the first courses. The price is fair, and the service is friendly and fast. All in a great location.

With a group of friends, 26 of us, we spent a very nice weekday evening having the place all to ourselves! We were completely satisfied with the dinner and the service, having received an almost family-like welcome. We recommend everyone to try it and believe it!

Booked for a family lunch after searching for local agritourism options. Beautiful location and attentive, friendly staff. There's a bit of a wait, but that's understandable, considering all the tables are full. Good selection of local and international wines. The first courses were good, but the second courses could be improved... what I don't understand is the decision to call themselves "agriturismo" and then have prices and, especially, portion sizes like those of a restaurant in the center of Modena. I'm sorry, but that's not my idea of ​​an agritourism.

Lunch under the pergola, gazing out over the Cusna, and listening to Marzia's kind description of the house dishes...an experience I'd recommend to everyone, even those who don't like mountain adventures! Unforgettable in its uniqueness!

Incuriosito dalle recensioni,alcune non troppo positive,siamo venuti per un pranzo domenicale in famiglia....Accolti da Marzia,una vera padrona di casa,siamo stati accompagnati nella terrazza panoramica sui monti circostanti,e pietra di Bismantova alle spalle,fortunati come meteo (25 gradi secchi e ventilati)ma non solo,ci ha anche accompagnato nel viaggio enogastronomico secondo la loro visione e ne siamo rimasti estasiati! Antipasti:funghi fritti,involtini di verza,tosone e pancetta crunchy e per finire erbazzone con ricetta antica.... Primi: cappellacci ai porcini e tagliatelle di ortiche ai porcini.. Secondi: sformato di spinaci su crema di reggiano,costolette d'agnello impanate e fritte e spalla CBT con contorni di patate al forno e caponatina Dolci: Zuppa inglese e strudel Che dire....se vogliamo trovare il capello nell'uovo l'unica cosa che stonava un po' era lo strudel non propriamente ortodosso....ma tutto il resto era da volare via!!! Vino eccellente ,seguendo i consigli di Marzia! Location bucolica e molto suggestiva(meravigliosa) Servizio attento e gentile Cibo ottimo con chicche inusuali Prezzo leggermente sopra alla media locale ma se calcoliamo la qualità dei piatti,dei vini e del servizio è un rapporto qualità/prezzo INVIDIABILE! Non capisco come abbiano potuto scrivere recensioni negative certe persone....o sono surrogati mastercheffiani senza alcuna conoscenza gastronomica o amici di ristoratori concorrenti. Per me voto 10! (Diesci😂) CONSIGLIATISSIMO!!!
