La Petra In Castelfranci

Without a doubt, the best place around. They have DELICIOUS ravioli stuffed with ricotta cheese in truffle sauce or porcini mushroom sauce (the best I've had in Italy). The dessert is spectacular. It's all worth it.

Incredible place, the food is spectacular and the service is excellent. Guaranteed to be the best place in the area.

The service from its staff is excellent, the food is delicious, and it's also in a fantastic town for its beauty and the hospitality of its people. People

Excellent home cooking, the maccaronara is top of the list, delicious! Impeccable service, very friendly staff, and a welcoming location. I'm really happy to have spent a Sunday lunch here with the people I care about most.

An authentic gem in the heart of Irpinia In the picturesque village of Castelfranci, in the heart of the Aglianico and Taurasi wine region, lies a small, great osteria worth discovering: Osteria La Petra. A place where traditional cuisine meets creativity, and hospitality is an integral part of the experience. As soon as you're seated, you're greeted with a warm turmeric and mint pizzillo, a welcome that speaks to the soul of the place: authentic flavors, refined through simplicity and seasonality. The true star of the kitchen is chef Natalina, who offers dishes that speak of local tradition and passion. Her seasonal first course—paccheri with zucchini flowers and porcini mushrooms—is a small masterpiece: masterfully balanced flavors, the freshest ingredients, and a preparation that highlights the natural goodness of the ingredients. The appetizers speak of Irpinia in every bite, with a selection that changes according to availability and season. Each dish is carefully crafted but never contrived: you can sense the "natural cuisine" that is Natalina's hallmark, transforming simple ingredients into genuine emotions. Enhancing the experience is the host, Michele, a genuine and friendly character, who with his wit and spontaneity creates a relaxed and familiar atmosphere. Between one joke and another, he leads guests on a tasty journey through local wines, recommending excellent labels such as Aglianico di Castelfranci and, of course, Taurasi, the pride of this region. In short, Osteria La Petra is a true osteria, in the truest sense of the word. A place where you eat excellently, feel good, and want to return. A little corner of Irpinia that deserves to be experienced, savored, and shared.

Siamo stati in questa Osteria per un pranzo domenicale con un gruppo di amici legati dalla passione per l'Avellino Calcio. Eravamo in 28 tra adulti e bambini, Michele ci accolto nel suo locale facendoci assaggiare la genuinità della sua cucina. Piatti semplici, abbondanti e ottimamente preparati. Noi abbiamo provato: Antipasto, la famosa Maccarona, le Pappardelle ai funghi porcini e il capretto al forno con le patate. Tutto davvero eccezionale, consigliatissimo. Forza Lupi :-)
