La Vecchia Taverna In Velletri

La Vecchia Taverna is one of those truly delightful discoveries. Located in the historic center of Velletri, this restaurant welcomes guests in a rustic, warm, and familiar setting, where the atmosphere is authentic and convivial. The cuisine is home-style and faithful to Velletri's traditions: flavorful dishes, prepared with quality ingredients and meticulous attention to detail. The pasta is homemade, and it shows: authentic, flavorful, and with that artisanal touch that makes all the difference. Each course is well-cooked and plentiful, perfect for those who love good, old-fashioned cuisine. The staff is truly impeccable: kind, smiling, and welcoming, they make you feel right at home. Not to mention the wine cellar, stocked with their own wines: we tasted one of their wines and it was truly delicious, perfect for accompanying lunch. The homemade desserts were also excellent, a perfect ending to a quality meal. The only complaint was the wait between courses, which was slightly longer than expected. No big deal, though, because overall we had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. In short, La Vecchia Taverna is an authentic, welcoming, and quality restaurant, perfect for those seeking authentic flavors and a warm, rustic atmosphere. Highly recommended for a pleasant lunch in the heart of Velletri.

Really like this place. A true “hidden gem” - the food is wonderful and the service is kind and polite.

We had an wonderful evening today. The waiter even was so kind and gave us an English explanation of all the dishes due to our very very basic Italian skills. We felt heartly welcomed and it was a pleasure to be a guest. Big recommendation! We started with a lovely cheese plate, had two different pastas and a tiramisu as a dessert - and everything was just perfect. You will love it!

Family restaurant discovered by chance We ate very well After ordering they offered us small bruschettas with organic oil from Lanuvio, very fragrant to follow My daughter and I had mezze maniche all'amatriciana and my wife had porchetta di manzo co patate arrosti The first ones were rich and tasty as per tradition, the second one was divinely prepared with hours of work for a succulent result Since it was lunch, with a very high outside temperature, while inside the climate was perfect, we went straight to the coffee available in three versions, strong, delicate and normal In short, as I write this review from the sofa at home in Ostia I am still licking my lips Highly recommended and thanks to the lady and her son Well done well done well done

One of the best for food, hospitality and professionalism. Promoted with honors

Cute setting. Doesn’t look like much from the outside but it’s a wonderful place with great hospitality. They even recommended an ice cream place and wrote the name of it down for us.

The old tavern is truly exceptional.... Friendly welcome, sublime food and excellent value for money... We had a really good time❤️

Per non arrivare fino alla consueta Ariccia abbiamo tentato la fortuna su Velletri e ci hanno ingolosito le buone recensioni. Il locale non è molto grande, ma tenuto bene, forse una vecchia cantina o bottega. Non ha parcheggio davanti. Abbiamo preso un semplice antipasto di formaggio e prosciutto (non ricordo la provenienza) ed erano buonissimi. Poi le classiche amatriciana, carbonara e una pasta fatta da loro con le verdure. Erano eccellenti. Non so quanto e se si discostano dal disciplinare dei piatti tipici ma da 1 a 10 abbiamo dato 10 alla carbonara e 9,5 agli altri 2. Una sorpresa veramente. Consigliatissimo.

The old tavern is a special place, the friendliness of the owner, the good food and the charming venue make you feel at home straight away. The chef is really good and the staff also knows how to advise very well based on customer needs. The value for money is excellent. Well what can I say, I'll be back tomorrow evening!!
