Osteria da Giorgione In L'aquila

I have nothing to complain about the service, always attentive and courteous, nor about the atmosphere, which is refined and welcoming. However, the dishes didn't live up to the restaurant's style and image. My first course, chitarra pasta with black summer truffle, was overly salty, despite the fresh homemade pasta as indicated on the menu. The ricotta and spinach ravioli was decent, overall pleasant but lacking any particular distinctive flavors. As an Abruzzese, I have to say that the arrosticini (€1.50 each) disappointed me: they weren't tender enough and, again, too salty. The cheesecakes, one with berries and the other with Nutella, were good, but the biscuit base was truly minimal, even if you can't tell from the photo. In short, I find the prices unjustified given the overall quality of the dishes and their preparation.

We stopped to eat at this restaurant on a Sunday. Honestly, I can't give it more than three stars. The first courses weren't worth the price. A mushroom pappardella was stuck together, and a spaghetti dish with zucchini and saffron that didn't blend well with the sauce. The side dishes were served late and were cold. We definitely won't be returning.

Knowing Giorgio through social media, I would have expected something more.

Very nice and excellent food. Right in the center.

I had dinner at this very nice and semi-elegant osteria. I didn't really appreciate the football matches being shown. The staff were attentive and friendly, the place was clean. The menu was varied, including appetizers, first courses, second courses, red and white pizzas, and desserts. The wine list was extensive and suitable for all tastes. The room temperature was slightly too high. Overall, I was very satisfied; I'll be back. PS. I really appreciate the elegant and hygienic cutlery holder.
