Il Trombone In Spello

We stumbled upon it by chance, strolling through the narrow streets of Spello. It was an excellent choice for lunch! The owner, despite being incredibly busy given the packed restaurant, was incredibly kind. The food was excellent! And the place was very, very cute and welcoming!

Excellent value for money. The owner was very kind and efficient. Even though it was crowded, we didn't have to wait for our food, and everything was excellent. The reviews in our case don't reflect the quality of the restaurant.

We had an absolutely incredible time at Il Trombone, the pastas were to die for and the service made us feel right at home! Highly highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a truly local experience in Spello with fantastic food!

We had lunch at this restaurant on a Sunday when Spello was packed with people attending a wine event. We entered and found no staff to welcome us. We entered the restaurant and waited a bit for someone to welcome us (the tables inside were occupied by only a small group; the rest of the place was empty). We attempted to access the terrace, but were blocked by the only restaurant staff member we could see. When we asked to eat outside, he told us it was all booked and invited us inside—a shame, because from what we could see, the terrace didn't appear to be full. Furthermore, as he seated us, he warned us that there would be a long wait for our food because they were having problems in the kitchen (we had the impression that he was asking us to leave, a fact confirmed by observing how other people who wanted to sit down to eat were treated). Once seated, we waited a quarter of an hour to place our reservations, and as instructed, we waited quite a while for our appetizer, wine, and cutlery, which we had to ask for. We didn't have to wait for the first course because it arrived while we were still eating our appetizer. The positive aspect of all this was the quality of the food: everything was very good, except for the pumpkin cream in the first course, which was cold compared to the rest of the dish, which failed to retain its heat. While we waited for our dishes, we stopped to admire the restaurant: very charming and historic. The terrace, which we were able to admire at the end of the meal (which we later discovered had many free tables, as was the rest of the restaurant), was very beautiful and had a remarkable view, but it was a shame we couldn't enjoy our lunch there. Continuing our observation, we noticed that the chair at the table next to us was very dirty with dried coffee splatters. We couldn't have coffee at the end of the meal because the machine had broken. Added to all this are the prices which are not exactly cheap, on the contrary.

Great experience! Spectacular view. The restaurant is reached via charming alleys. Lunch is slow food, where you don't have to rush your meal, but rather enjoy the view and the food, made with love. Dogs are welcome. Many compliments!!!

We have eaten here twice now, sitting outside in the shade sharing the amazing views. The food was fantastic (carbonara gets a special mention but also the starter board of mixed meats and cheeses, the steak tartare and their gnocchi rucola e Gorgonzola). Choosing wine was easy - red and/or white, both delicious! Lovely lady seems to both cook and serve was very sweet.

Spectacular restaurants, with authentic and carefully prepared dishes, precise and courteous service and a unique view.

Magnificent place! Spectacular view and good food. Fairly affordable.

Lovely place both inside and out (spectacular view). Attentive and fast service. Excellent food. Recommended.

Beautiful location, food and service could be improved.
