Trattoria Afra In Valleve

15/04/2025: On the recommendation of a friend I come here for lunch. I had a great time and can't wait to go back. Very nice location, excellent food, generous and very satisfying portions. I made the complete lunch menu for €25 including water and coffee.

03/04/2025: I found out about this place thanks to a couple of friends. I had lunch on a weekday with the business lunch formula. The characteristic place, an ancient farmhouse with vaults and a star with exposed bricks, a warm and welcoming yet large environment. The "business lunch" formula includes a buffet and then you can choose a first or second course or a complete lunch. Excellent price, 18 or 21 or 25 euros for the three options including water, wine and coffee. The buffet is excellent, not the usual arranged vegetables but a real triumph of various products, from cured meats to omelettes, from cheeses to leavened products, all very well done, remarkable quality of raw materials. The buffet alone would be a super lunch on its own. I then opted for a second course and they served me a whole cockerel with baked potatoes, very well done, tasty and soft, really excellent. One diner opted for a risotto that was served in the characteristic pan, had been made espresso, al dente and well creamed. Before going out I tried to book for a Sunday in May for lunch where I would have brought some guests (I would have made a great impression) but unfortunately everything was already reserved (Confirmations in progress). The place is definitely worth it and the staff is capable, professional and kind. We will definitely return, perhaps to have lunch outdoors since there is this possibility in the summer months.
