Re Panino il panino della Tuscia In Viterbo

14/07/2025: The food was amazing, I've never eaten like this, not to mention the location, it was truly jaw-dropping.

09/07/2025: Consistently good cuisine, but with a few setbacks compared to the past I returned to Frantoio di Lubrano after some time, driven by the excellent memories of previous experiences. A restaurant nestled in the tranquility of the countryside, with a rustic and welcoming atmosphere, which had won me over in the past for both the quality of the dishes, the generous portions, and the variety of the offerings. Unfortunately, this time the experience fell a bit short of expectations. The quality of the cuisine remains good: the dishes are prepared with fresh and well-cooked ingredients, the flavors are authentic, and the attention to detail in the preparation is evident. However, what I noticed—and what made the difference—was a noticeable reduction in portions, which in the past were one of the restaurant's strong points. This time, the portion sizes were rather small, and in some cases barely adequate. Another slightly disappointing aspect was the menu, which seemed much more limited than usual. There was little choice, especially for first and second courses, and no real surprises or specials of the day. I understand the desire to focus on quality or seasonality, but such a limited menu makes it harder to find something to please everyone, especially during a dinner with friends or family. The service was courteous and prompt, as always, and the staff was helpful and friendly. The atmosphere remains pleasant: refined, quiet, and perfectly in keeping with the setting. The atmosphere, therefore, continues to have its charm. I sincerely hope it was a special evening or a temporary phase, because Frantoio di Lubrano has everything it takes to offer a high-quality experience, as it has always done in the past. I will definitely give it another chance, hoping to rediscover the mix of abundance, variety, and flavor that made it a must-visit in the area.
