I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Rieti

01/10/2025: There is a shower, a toilet for free, parking is good.

21/09/2025: I really appreciated the presence of many gluten-free products (not the usual crisps or peanuts), the very clean toilets

30/10/2025: Characteristic location Homemade food and a family atmosphere Wide selection of dishes

22/09/2025: When we booked and after reading the reviews, our expectations were high, but not for the atmosphere and service, which we immediately imagined would be "down-to-earth," but especially for the food. We were four adults and a two-year-old child. We arrived at 12:50. At 1:30, we were served drinks: still water, sparkling water, and half a liter of red wine. At 2:00, we were brought an appetizer consisting of: a tray of mixed cold cuts, five slices of cheese, a small plate of sautéed zucchini, a small plate of peppers, and a small plate of eggplant. Next, we opted for the mezze maniche alla amatriciana. We were brought a beautiful tray of pasta, inviting to look at but terrifying to taste. More than an amatriciana, it tasted like an arrabbiata, especially considering there was a two-year-old child there who, poor thing, couldn't eat anything. We didn't order a second course because it was already past 4:00 PM and the child was a bit confused. We only had four coffees brought to us. Moral of the story: the lady presented us with a bill of €140, which we paid "strictly" in cash. I don't think anything else needs to be said.

26/09/2025: A hidden place, behind a vending machine.... Then you enter and find an excellent place with quality food and lots of friendliness....

16/09/2025: The 25 euro fixed menu is spectacular; you can eat there for three days, the food is very good and authentic. It's best to book, as it's always full.

07/09/2025: Warm welcome, excellent food and advice about what to order. Perfect portion sizes. I especially loved the fettuccine al boscaiolo and the coniglio but everything including the dolci was great. Very picturesque setting too, with good outdoor shade.

06/09/2025: Family atmosphere, top-quality food. From the appetizers to the first courses, from the grilled meats to the desserts, everything is delicious. I'll definitely be back.

20/05/2025: A place I have known all my life with a beautiful view of the mountains and the whole town with a breathtaking panorama of the Valle Santa il bara offers with table service and at the counter beautiful outdoor space with veranda excellent for breakfasts coffee and cappuccinos (super) yeasts aperitifs first and second courses fresh every day 👍❤️

21/06/2025: Il termine esatto è come a casa di amici. Non aspettatevi un menù gourmet, i piatti sono i classici della zona. Grigia e amatriciana di ottima qualità, abbacchio veramente buono e ben cotto. Un plauso in più per la possibilità di pasta senza glutine servita in sicurezza e veramente buona ovviamente ben condita dal sugo di amatriciana. Attenzione al bis, non sono due assaggi ma due porzioni , come tutti i piatti le porzioni sono abbondanti. Titolare gentile e disponibile, il prezzo eccezionale. Torneremo quando prenotando, oggi ci siamo presentati a sorpresa.

14/06/2025: Che dire ...accoglienza cibo top... qualità...abbondanza ...Luigi e Barbara sono una garanzia .. se vuoi passare una giornata in totale relax tra buon cibo e amici è il luogo perfetto. I bambini hanno tantissimo spazio, campetto da calcio, giochi esterni e interni Messi a disposizione dai proprietari. Top top

12/10/2025: Excellent pizza, with an endless variety of flavors, but also excellent cuisine with truly generous portions!! The staff is always friendly and helpful. Highly recommended 👍👍

10/10/2025: Updated October 9, 2025 ...and while other customers post photos of appetizers, first courses, second courses, side dishes, and desserts, I prefer to post a photo of a simple coffee, because it's in the details that you can see the class of an unsurpassed professional like Sandro!! Unsurpassed in skill, education, and friendliness. THANK YOU, every evening is a guarantee 😉 February 2025, update to the previous review from over a year ago Recently renovated, the restaurant has further improved aesthetically. The quality of the products, the preparation of the dishes, and the service are excellent as always! Sandro is a true professional in skill, class, and friendliness. I can say without hesitation that every evening at La Siesta is a success...you leave wanting to return as soon as possible! Five stars and PRAISE... because I can't give more than that!! Highly recommended Previous review I discovered this place with my husband on February 14th for Valentine's Day, and we've been back often since. Even on busy evenings, wait times were acceptable. I'm only rating the pizza because, so far, we haven't tried the restaurant service, which is also why I'm giving it four stars instead of five. The pizza is good in terms of dough (neither too thin nor too crumb), toppings, and cooking. We recently tried the maxi pizza, which we liked... (probably because it's served on a wooden board, which helps retain heat and flavor longer! Plus, you can choose from a variety of flavors). The assortment of bruschetta is very tasty, with decidedly delicious sauces. The dining rooms are pleasant, used during the winter, while in the summer the tables are set in a lovely garden. Convenient parking. Special thanks to Sandro, who takes care of table service and is affectionately nicknamed "Speedy Gonzales" by my husband and I for his incredible speed! Sandro is highly experienced and manages to be fast, yet attentive to customer requests. He's extremely professional, knowledgeable in his advice, and always available. The prices are fair. I recommend booking because the place is busy even on weekday evenings.

13/10/2025: What can I say? Rustic place, the owner chef is amazing, he makes you feel at home.

11/10/2025: We went today for the first time, welcoming place, excellent Roman cuisine, friendly chef and excellent value for money, I recommend it

28/07/2025: Wonderful experience, excellent service, good food, nice welcome, to be repeated

08/06/2025: Speechless and by speechless, I mean in a clearly positive way!!! We celebrated my children's confirmation and communion in this little restaurant and I assure you that you will be pleasantly surprised! We opted for a fish menu and we are extremely satisfied with the quality of everything cooked and the absolutely honest price!! The service guys were fast, friendly and easy-going!! The guests were all satisfied and we were even more satisfied, for the excellent success of the ceremonies!! I sincerely thank the management and employees!! To say excellent is an understatement!! For those who want to go and eat fish in the mountains, it is a pleasant surprise... of course with a reservation well in advance!

16/08/2025: The Torda and Gorgonzola/Speck pizzas are superb. Even my partner, who's worse than the MasterChef judges, raved about them. Paired with Gewürztraminer. There's just one problem: we live 300 km away! But we'll be back anyway!

07/08/2025: Very good pizzas. Simple but neat atmosphere. Service ok.

19/09/2025: We’ve been here a few times and the food is great. The people are lovely too. Highly recommend the pizzas (really crispy bases) but also the meat and sides.

24/08/2025: Excellent lunch with friends, attentive and welcoming service. Traditional cuisine prepared with quality ingredients. Near Casperia, a village worth visiting and within walking distance. An experience to repeat.

13/07/2025: Nice place, zero-mile food and delicious dishes, simple place immersed in a beautiful park, we will be back

23/06/2025: Surrounded by greenery, well-kept and welcoming, but above all excellent gastronomic choice: simple and home-made cuisine, good raw materials; exceptional oil, dry and crispy fried foods. There is a fixed menu that I believe varies every week, with three choices for first course and three for second course and a super abundant and tasty appetizer.. I don't like fixed menus, but here there is originality and wisdom, among the first courses there is a good choice and not the usual carbonara or amatriciana. We will definitely return

07/09/2025: It's delicious ice cream...the service is top notch 🥰

06/09/2025: Fondente con rum e amarena è il top, ma consiglio anche torta di mele e Noci e fichi, il gelato più buono di rieti

01/09/2025: We left the restaurant with smiles on our faces: Mama's cooking, respectful of tradition, with the freshest ingredients and balanced flavors. The maltagliati made with ancient grain flours were exceptional, the lamb in sauce and the saddle of veal were incredibly tender, and the chopped chicory, just the way I like it, was fantastic. Excellent wines and, above all, a top-notch digestif: Amaro Virentis! The atmosphere is family-friendly, ideal for a get-together with friends or a family gathering. Very good value for the quality offered. I recommend booking! In short: superb cuisine, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere—a little restaurant definitely worth a visit!

02/06/2025: Halfway through a long bike ride, we arrive at 2:30 pm. A first course on the fly, water, wine and coffee (15€) and we were out at 3:00 pm. We had an excellent wild boar ragù. When we asked to add truffle to the fettuccine, they explained to us, with kind firmness, that certain combinations are not done at their house: "truffle is delicate, it goes with butter, anchovy, not with game." It was a lesson. "Of course if you really insist..." Oh no, in front of the chef with that sincerely pained face, no. We had already made a fool of ourselves, we are people who learn from our mistakes. In short, we left fuller and wiser. Thank you

28/07/2025: A delicious gelato shop with a welcoming atmosphere. Lorenzo is a down-to-earth guy, always smiling, and he makes everyone happy, especially the kids! The gelato is homemade, artisanal, and you can taste it: all the flavors are delicious, but the "Giusto Gusto" remains a favorite with both adults and kids. Don't underestimate the baby cornetto, which Lorenzo is the only one making in the area: perfect for little ones, both in terms of price and quantity. A true must-try on summer evenings. Not to be missed!

01/06/2025: Great ice cream and fast service.
