Trattoria del Borgo Elce In Perugia

We made a reservation for dinner, and even though we arrived late, the handyman didn't make a fuss. The food was very good, but, with no table staff, the service was lacking. Despite this, the owner was almost willing to make up for certain shortcomings.

Appetizers with home-made flavors, I rediscovered flavors from when my grandmother grew black cabbage in the garden, beans with pork rinds, tripe, stuffed courgette flowers, liver pâté and so on and so forth, first courses for the children... handmade tagliatelle and gnocco, and finally roast suckling pig with mashed potatoes, a glass of wine, water, cover charge, coffee at a more than fair price!!!!!!

A small but delightful place. Excellent traditional dishes with a focus on the finest ingredients. The owner was attentive to our every request. Highly recommended.

It was a wonderful experience, we stumbled upon it by chance, and we were very satisfied. The products used are top-quality, and it doesn't feel like a trattoria. The service from the owner was also excellent. My daughter discovered the pate and ate a whole bowl of Perugia-style chicken pate and tagliatelle with wild boar ragù... my entrecote was also excellent, both in quality and cooking.

The owner was very friendly and made fresh pasta on the spot with delicious, fresh sauces. The revisited panzanella was special! The burrata was delicious, and the vegetables were freshly cut. He offered us an appetizer of Perugia-style liver pâté, which was excellent, as well as homemade gelato with caramelized figs. He even offered us cookies to accompany the gelato. The bill was very reasonable for what we ate. I recommend it!

The atmosphere is a bit remote, a bit dark outside, and the lighting is dim. The staff is nice and friendly. The service is average, and the food is excellent. Especially the carpaccio and the meat.

Hospitality and experience! Traditional yet innovative. This is enough to describe this wonderful place.

The food is simply delicious, a must if you are in the area. The only flaw was a bad joke from the owner.

We had an excellent lunch in this simple dining room where the owner/chef prepares a few Umbrian and original dishes using fresh ingredients. Outstanding were the pappa al pomodoro and scrambles eggs with black truffle. We will certainly go back to see what this creative and accomplished chef has come up with next

We had a truly fantastic experience at this restaurant. It was a bit hidden on the second floor, but it was definitely worth it. Just outside the center of Perugia lies this hidden gem. We had a delicious multi-course menu, and the lamb was especially delicious. The chef is a very friendly man. If you're in Perugia, this is definitely a must-visit.
