Trattoria Da Linetta In Canepina

06/04/2026: We'd booked this restaurant based on the excellent reviews, and it didn't disappoint! Fresh from a walk in the Sacred Woods of Bomarzo, and with a decent appetite, we immediately knew from the aromas wafting from the restaurant that we'd made the right choice. We started with the appetizer of the day—Easter pizza with cheese, capocollo, and salami from their farm—and for the child, roast porchetta with potatoes, and everything turned out excellent: sublime cured meats, exceptional pizza, and the porchetta was truly unique! We happily cleared our plates and moved on to two first courses: rigatoni carbonara, made to perfection, and tagliatelle with asparagus and exceptional guanciale. We were so impressed by the crispiness and flavor of the guanciale that we decided to buy a small piece from the butcher shop adjacent to the restaurant. My wife finished with a plate of sautéed escarole with olives—excellent—and I had a local specialty, beef stewed with tomato sauce, olives, and fennel. I finished off the bread with a ferocious mopping up of the bread, also finishing off the very drinkable house wine. We finished with Neapolitan pastiera and zabaglione tart, all strictly homemade. We were so hungry and hungry that we forgot to take photos, but we definitely won't forget to return to try some of the other tempting dishes! P.S. If we hadn't ordered dessert, we would have paid around seventy euros: a very fair price!!!
