I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Umbria

17/07/2025: A wonderful lady, very nice and communicative, very nice atmosphere and delicious food

04/08/2025: We stopped for lunch to order two pasta dishes and salads. Simple but delicious dishes. Outdoor and covered seating. Enjoy your visit.

21/06/2025: Very good first courses for €5...the owner is friendly and kind...you have to go!!!

23/10/2025: Entering Lievito is like crossing the threshold into a place where a passion for pizza meets the art of mixology and the sophistication of signature pastry making. It's one of those places that, once discovered, immediately becomes a must-visit: for its quality, its atmosphere, and the attention to detail evident in every detail. Simone, the heart and mind behind the project, has built a pizzeria that goes far beyond the traditional "pizza and beer" concept. At Lievito, you can enjoy a complete and surprising experience, where the selection of ingredients and the combination of flavors are designed to amaze. The pizzas are unusual: each dough is the result of hours of study and testing, each topping is a discovery. You'll find unexpected combinations, with seasonal ingredients and excellent products, selected with a keen eye for quality and provenance. But what makes Lievito truly unique is the option to pair the pizzas with exclusive cocktails, prepared with artisanal spirits and infusions, often homemade and impossible to find commercially. It's an unusual yet successful combination that transforms every dinner into a sensory journey. The balance between the savory pizzas and the aromatic notes of the cocktails creates a refined and modern gastronomic experience that few places can offer with such consistency and taste. The restaurant is elegant and welcoming, with a contemporary yet warm design, perfect for those seeking a relaxed yet stylish atmosphere. Every detail is carefully chosen: from the soft lighting to the music, everything contributes to creating a pleasant and never forced atmosphere. And then there are Sabrina's desserts, a chapter in themselves. Her creations recall the style of the famous Cédric Grolet, with desserts that are true works of art: impeccable aesthetics, surprising textures, and balanced flavors. A perfect ending to a truly memorable dinner. In short, Lievito is more than just a pizzeria: it's a contemporary gastronomic experience, a place where excellence is at home and where every detail speaks of passion, expertise, and love for what they do.

20/10/2025: We had to wait forty minutes for our pizzas, and the staff was quite distracted. The food, however, was very good.

24/08/2025: I'll start by saying that I'm a carnivore. But today I tasted the best!!

16/07/2025: Delicious food, enchanting and certainly evocative location. Value for money is average. The only criticism I'd make is regarding the communication between the dining room and the kitchen; if you shout, they'll hear you even from outside.

23/11/2025: Saturday evening, the restaurant was practically empty, four people, appetizers and mixed cold cuts, no brand, three main courses left on the plate, not because of a complaint, a chickpea soup, three side dishes, a bottle of water, a 33cl beer, and a 66cl beer. The restaurant was unheated, we dined in jackets, and the cost was €184 without a receipt because the POS and cash register were "dead," according to the manager. Upon request, a fake receipt was issued from a new receipt pad, with no serial number.

11/10/2025: A small town trattoria with a wide selection of high-quality local products, perfectly cooked at competitive prices. These include superb fresh fried porcini mushrooms, as well as pappardelle with wild boar and beans with pork rind.

30/10/2025: Pizza already cut into squares: I choose a stuffed piece (not exactly freshly baked, so presumably it needs at least a quick reheat in the oven); the lady at the counter asks me if I'd like anything else (a small bottle of water from the fridge) and charges me: end of our conversation; she doesn't ask if I'd like to eat it there, or take it away, nothing at all. Since there are other customers eating at the tables, I lean against a table too and wait trustingly... a quarter of an hour! Meanwhile, the lady, with indescribable calm, was serving two other customers who had arrived immediately after me. I point out that I was waiting directly in front of the cash register, so she saw me standing there like a statue with my arms folded, waiting for my slice of pizza (the place is small). At a certain point, tired of waiting in vain, I ask, "Excuse me, ma'am, but what about my pizza?" and, listen, I hear her reply, "IT'S THERE," pointing to a tiny paper package on the counter. I was speechless...! You leave me there like a salami for a long time without saying a word, without even bothering to ask, "Should I heat it up or eat it like this? Here or take it away?" like ANY pizza chef or baker would, and does! But according to the girl, I was just standing there doing nothing for all that time. For what purpose? To warm up? To kill time? To keep her company? Frankly, nothing like this has ever happened, and I go to a lot of pizza places! I really didn't know what to say, other than, "I thought you were waiting while she heated it up," and she said, "No, but if you want, I'll heat it up for you now," and then my arms literally dropped and I replied, "I thought that since it's cold, it was normal for her to have heated it up... but no thanks, anyway... I'll heat it up myself at home." A truly annoying, indifferent and incomprehensible attitude.

29/09/2025: Top taste of the products (recommendations: Gamberetti and Tonno) - very friendly service

10/09/2025: Stopped in during pouring rain - the Norcina was excellent, one of the better homemade pastas I’ve had traveling Italy. Inexpensive, and local.

21/07/2025: An experience to forget. The sign "Typical Dishes" was just misleading advertising for those of us who stopped for lunch at 1:30 PM on a road trip. In fact, one of us didn't even eat...they forgot to tell us the dish wasn't on the menu. Better to just stop at the bar.

05/10/2025: Very nice place, the Saturday pizza menu is amazing! The price is right for the price.

04/10/2025: A night out for pizza—you know, a pizza is a pizza. When we arrived (there were four of us), it wasn't crowded, but the wait was over half an hour. The waiter, without ever smiling, made us wait both to order drinks and to bring the change. I didn't know they had a single Saturday menu consisting of a mixed fried fish for four, one pizza, and one dessert, with no option to choose what to eat. The pizza was good, but there were only a few options to choose from. The food/service/price ratio seemed unfair.

31/10/2025: Prices are not in line with the location (it's a bar), good pizza ingredients, but very salty dough, loud noise (music from the radio in the background)

16/08/2025: Locale che non delude mai per gentilezza, professionalità, accuratezza nella preparazione dei piatti. Cibo di ottima qualità, altrettanto si può dire per la scelta dei vini (in questo caso è da sottolineare l'onestà dei prezzi con ricarico davvero marginale). Consigliatissimo in tutte le fasce orarie, ovviamente anche per aperitivo (credo si possa dire che i cocktail siano tra i migliori della città), servito con piattino sempre molto particolare. Sempre ben frequentato. Complimenti a tutto lo staff!

24/11/2025: Excellent restaurant, the space is a bit cramped in the winter. The staff is professional and welcoming. Good wine and a warm atmosphere.

21/09/2025: Helpful and friendly. Light pizza dough, everything good.

09/11/2025: The tart that the lady makes.......delicious!!!

24/10/2025: Honestly, I didn't like it very much. Every time I go in, the owner is on the phone, which is unprofessional, especially if a customer you're not familiar with arrives. Every now and then, you can hear swearing and curses coming from the counter... it's unprofessional at all, and to add something very important, mothers come in with their children, and I don't think it's right that small children hear such bad words!!!! The owner is sullen, sometimes rude, and the grandfather who occasionally strolls around the dining room and bar is also very sullen. The food is good, but it's served in small quantities, and especially in some cases, it's cold. I honestly wouldn't drink the coffee, seeing how it's made... it disgusts me. The jug isn't cleaned thoroughly to remove excess coffee, and that can give the coffee a burnt taste. There are so many things that could be improved... TOO MANY!! The ice cream too. It's good, for sure, but after a while, it makes you nauseous. IMPROVE!! ESPECIALLY THE SERVICE, IT'S NOT PROFESSIONAL!!

06/12/2025: A terrible experience... Only the sliced ​​steak was edible; we were left hungry for the rest! Highly not recommended!

22/11/2025: A welcoming, family-friendly place with fantastic pizza and an excellent selection of mushroom dishes.

30/11/2025: It's been a while since I've been here, and I'm wondering what happened to this place. They seat us and bring us the menu: 3 black and white photocopies, stapled and crumpled. The beginning didn't look good at all. After almost half an hour of sitting (and it wasn't even packed), we ordered two piadinas and a hamburger. The piadinas arrived cold; the ham looked like it had been cut with a cleaver, so thick it was, and it hadn't even been cleaned, with pieces of rind and rancid fat. The 250g hamburger arrived on a bun from an 80g hamburger. Practically half the meat was hanging out of the bun. Unwatchable!!! The potato chips, let alone the one they had, were cold and hard. We gloss over the slice of orange in the Pepsi Cola and close with the waiters who, while we were finishing dinner, were lifting the chairs at the tables around us... well, maybe they were in a hurry to go to the disco!!!

15/08/2025: Good pizza, nice and quiet atmosphere

31/10/2025: Restaurant with excellent dishes and equally excellent wines.

07/08/2025: Excellent restaurant with fresh dishes, including fish. Super friendly staff who recommended a truly excellent wine.

27/11/2025: Excellent food and professional, friendly staff. In addition to the first courses, we also ordered two tagliata with side dishes. Good value for money.

03/11/2025: It exceeded our expectations. The simplicity of its dishes made us feel at home, and the staff was incredibly kind.
