Taverna dei Velai In Sant'agata sul santerno

17/05/2026: Entering this restaurant is almost like a journey through twenty thousand leagues under the sea. Expectations are high, the staff and kitchen are welcoming, and the menu piques our curiosity. The oysters and raw shrimp are excellent. The eel risotto is delicious and well-crafted. The sturgeon dish disappointed me; the brioche was soaked in butter, and the sturgeon was a bit spicy (not inedible, but enough to annoy those who don't like spicy food), which should be noted on the menu. The iconic spaghetti is a dish made with excellent ingredients, and the spaghetti is well-cooked, but the sauce was soupy and washed out. The cheesecake is good, and the bergamot sorbet is excellent. In the small pastry shop, the caramelized popcorn has unexploded kernels, making it difficult to chew. The cuisine is still maturing, and the dining room is a bit unripe. In conclusion, a bit of a disappointment.

14/05/2026: You can really treat yourself there… Fish prepared in a way you rarely see. Truly creative and refined. On the pricier side, but good.
