3 stars of encouragement.
We visited this agriturismo with high expectations, but the overall experience was a bit disappointing. The location is pleasant, rustic, with a beautiful natural setting, but poorly maintained. The children's play area, for example, is outdated and in need of maintenance to ensure safety and functionality.
The menu was simple and rightly limited. The appetizer was decent: salami and prosciutto were not homemade, but still good.
Among the first courses, the children's pasta with tomato sauce was simple but overall acceptable, made with local artisanal pasta (even if not produced by the agriturismo). The maccaronara with porcini mushroom and truffle oil was good, but unfortunately the oil, purchased at a local grocery store, wasn't local, and this detracted from the dish's authenticity.
The second courses were the most disappointing: the lamb was certainly not locally sourced, not of high quality, and poorly cooked—plus, only four small pieces for a price of 12 euros. The sausage was also not of high quality or well-cooked. The only exception was the "ammugliatillo," prepared in a different way than the traditional recipe, which stood out.
The quality-price ratio is unsatisfactory: the dishes absolutely don't justify the price paid.
To make matters worse, the overall impression is made worse by the total lack of empathy and hospitality from the owners: no greeting, no presence during the meal, not even a simple "how was it?" when the bill arrived. Not even a coffee or a liqueur were offered, as is often the case out of courtesy in similar places, except for the waiter, a good and polite young man.
Desserts were practically nonexistent: just a rather bland sponge cake with cream.
In conclusion: an agriturismo with potential, but managed without attention to hospitality, with a cuisine that focuses on the bare minimum. Greater care, authenticity, and involvement are needed to offer a truly worthwhile experience.
