Excellent food, typical Umbrian, I'll be back

A beautiful, tastefully renovated old farmhouse, perched on a panoramic hilltop with convenient parking. The food is good, including excellent meat. They strive for trendy, refined cuisine, and the prices reflect this, though they don't always succeed. Dishes tried: - Rustico Tasting, a sampling of the four appetizers on the menu, cost €20, too much for a bite of tartare (the meat was excellent and well-prepared, but the caramelized onion, cooked at a low temperature, was also excellent, and overpowered the flavor of the meat). A fried couscous meatball on chickpea hummus was good but not tasty (the hummus didn't really add anything to the meatball, which didn't taste much, even though it was well-breaded and not greasy). A potato tart with truffle and guanciale (a good combination). A savory cannoli with ricotta and anchovy sauce, served with vegetables and a salad (a great idea, but the cannoli was too hard and fell apart when you tried to bite into it or cut it, and the anchovy was too strong, overpowering the rest of the flavors). - Tagliatelle with truffle, delicious and rich in truffle shavings. - Off-menu: paccheri with pumpkin cream, bacon, and chopped walnuts, excellent, plentiful, and richly seasoned. The pasta was slightly overcooked (personal preference), but still a successful dish. - Tagliatelle with tomato ragù for the child, plentiful and tasty. - Pheasant breast wrapped in bacon, green beans, and citronette sauce, looked like sausage, tasty and perfectly cooked, but the green beans were disproportionately abundant compared to the meat. - Sliced ​​beef, well-cooked but not exciting, served with coarse pink salt, not exactly ideal for adding to the meat (better to use a refined medium/small-grain wholemeal salt from traditional Italian saltworks). - Rabbit in pistachio breadcrumbs stuffed with vegetables on a red onion cream. The meat and the combinations were excellent, even though the vegetables were barely noticeable. - Roasted potato rings, tasty and soft. - Espresso tiramisu, tasteless without espresso. The ladyfingers weren't soaked, the coffee wasn't noticeable. The cream was good, but certain desserts are really good if made hours ahead of time to allow the various ingredients to meld together. The dinnerware used to carry the dishes is very unique, but the pairings are often completely wrong when it comes to presentation. For example, the breaded rabbit with red onion sauce (the sauce was dark, the rabbit dark) was presented on a plate with a modern, asymmetrical design and dark brown/dark gray/blue colors that almost obscured the food. I recommend a light-colored plate to contrast with the colors and highlight the dish. Dark dishes like these can, however, enhance light-colored dishes, or at least serve them on light-colored plates. Overall, it was a nice day and we ate well, but the bill was a bit surprising (even though, looking at the prices on the menu, we were quite prepared).

Very positive experience. Excellent food. Friendly and attentive staff. We'll be back.

It was a very pleasant surprise! We were invited by a friend for a birthday party. The location was beautiful and welcoming (with plenty of parking), the service was friendly and fast, and the food was excellent!

In reality, 5 stars is a lot; such a high rating should only be given for excellence. Obviously, this isn't the case, but the staff is very young (all women), and I think an extra star is warranted. The location is nice, relatively small, and welcoming. The natural "terrace" overlooking the valley is beautiful; it's truly enjoyable on beautiful summer and spring days. The food is high-quality, especially the meats. The fried pulled pork is truly amazing. I would have preferred a little more punch on the pasta, which is a bit bland. As mentioned in the introduction, there's nothing to complain about with the service. What I liked most was the atmosphere; there were many other people there, but the location was so convivial that it felt like we were one big group. I really enjoyed it. Mission accomplished.

Last night we had dinner to celebrate my birthday and had a wonderful time. The menu, arranged with one of the owners (very kind and helpful), was tasty, full of creative ideas, and well-balanced. The service was very attentive, and the staff who served us were attentive to our needs but never intrusive. Overall, an experience worth repeating. Thank you.

I had lunch here and was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is meticulously designed, yet not overly formal, and offers a truly enchanting view. The menu is original, far from the usual standards, and the dishes are not only delicious, but also beautiful to look at. The value for money is excellent, considering the care and quality of the food served. Highly recommended.
