Ristorante i Girasoli In Montalto di castro

I'd like to point out that this criticism should be taken as a starting point for improvement, not for harm. I've read many 5-star reviews, but I honestly don't understand where they come from. Food... I don't want to argue with the quality, but it's definitely not treated as it deserves. Some dishes are heavy with oil... the presentation is barely adequate... much better can be done, even if you're at a farmhouse and not a Michelin-starred restaurant. I'd happily pay 30 euros for a 500- or 600-gram sea bream or sea bass (freshly caught), but not here. Ambience... what can I say... they have a place that could be a key location in the area... where there aren't many noteworthy restaurants... but it's absolutely under-appreciated, poorly maintained... the interior is squalid... the exterior needs a complete overhaul and renovation (the photos on the various pages don't represent the current state of the location). The space is there... make the most of it and make it more presentable and welcoming. Come on guys... get busy... you have the cards... play them!

Simple but elegant atmosphere, very friendly staff and excellent food, fair value for money.
