Ristorante Pizzeria La Ballaccia In Viterbo

Excellent food quality. Mushrooms of all kinds seem to be the specialty. Very friendly service. The place is cozy, though a bit small with a stroller, but still manageable. There's a bit of difficulty getting in with a stroller due to the inevitable stairs. Overall, I'd recommend it.

It had been a long time since I'd been there for Sunday lunch, and it was a lovely discovery. The atmosphere was pleasant, with attention to detail evident from the entrance to the dining room. The dishes were typical of "Sammartinese" cuisine, with fresh mushrooms in our case, but still good quality. The mixed antipasto was plentiful, so three people ate there easily. The meat was excellent, as was the padellaccia with mushrooms and potatoes... The staff were kind and courteous, and the prices were in line with the quality of the ingredients. We'll see you again soon.

Not a particularly positive experience The food was good...for goodness sake, but a few things went wrong. I had booked a table outside, but the waiter sat us inside...only to have us moved outside after 10 minutes! Next, I ordered fresh pasta with guanciale, pistachio, and pecorino cheese, but unfortunately the pistachio cream contained crushed pistachio shells! The deconstructed tart was sublime, but the chestnut cream dessert was nothing special! Super-fast service fast! The prices were definitely above average for what we ate.

The soups and the platter are excellent.

There were 12 of us, outside under the umbrella, within reach of the smoke from the brazier set up for the fair, for roasting chestnuts. We ordered: 4 sliced ​​appetizers, 11 first courses, 2 potatoes and porcini mushrooms, 11 desserts, 1 (one) bottle of wine, 6 bottles of water, and 5 coffees. We spent €440, or €37 each. In my opinion, given the location (outside the restaurant), a traditional (not gourmet) mountain first course for €18 and a dessert for €8-9 are overpriced.

A trip to Tuscia, to this delightful and quiet village. The restaurant, though a bit cramped and sprawling, is very well-decorated and welcoming. Following the general recommendation, we opted for mushrooms, which, admittedly, were somewhat undercooked in the fettuccine, which negated their aroma and texture. The chickpea and chestnut soup, however, was good. For main course, a sliced ​​steak with arugula and mushrooms, which wasn't particularly successful, and a polenta with porcini mushrooms and sausage. Overall, we were a bit disappointed, primarily by the mushrooms featured, at least in the dishes we chose, almost like a dussel, a preparation more suited to mushrooms than to the king of porcini mushrooms. But we probably just ordered the wrong thing. Service was friendly, the bathroom impeccable. With a glass of Sangiovese, the bill came to about €80 for two.

My experience at La Ballaccia di San Martino was beyond positive. A beautiful location in the main square, where I enjoyed an excellent pan-fried mushroom and potato dish, all washed down with an excellent bottle of wine. The staff were impeccable 👏

I've always eaten very well there. I've been back many times, and it's always lived up to my expectations. I recommend the steak, the white ragù, and the pizza.

Una cena all’insegna della convivualità tipica dei cimini. Funghi e carne sono il fiore all’occhiello del locale, pizza ottima. Terrazza estiva esperienza da provare, elude dal contesto tipico di un viterbesità trascorsa. Servizio ineccepibile, amichevole e disponibile per ogni evenienza. Difficilmente trascurabile se passate da queste zone.

Durante una visita a Viterbo ci siamo fermati a mangiare a La Belloccia e ne siamo rimasti entusiasti! Il locale è accogliente, curato nei dettagli e con un’atmosfera familiare che mette subito a proprio agio. Il menù propone piatti della tradizione locale, cucinati con passione e ingredienti freschissimi. Abbiamo assaggiato i lombrichelli all’amatriciana e un cinghiale in umido davvero deliziosi. Porzioni abbondanti e ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo. Il servizio è stato impeccabile: personale gentile, attento e disponibile a consigliare con simpatia. Un’esperienza autentica che consigliamo a chi vuole scoprire i sapori veri della Tuscia. Torneremo sicuramente!
