I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Umbria

08/03/2026: Yesterday, March 7, 2026, we arrived in Castiglione del Lago. We weren't sure where to eat, and by chance we found this restaurant. We called and booked a table for two. When we arrived, we were greeted by a waitress named Ludovica. She was extremely polite, kind, and above all, very professional, and knew exactly what to recommend. We ordered a house appetizer, a first course: Pici al ragù (a type of pasta) and Pici al cacio e pepe (a type of pasta typical of Rome). This was a very strange choice, considering it's a Roman type of pasta. She also recommended a local sparkling wine (excellent) and a bottle of water. 1 coffee for the modest sum of €47.00. I have to be honest: we ate divinely, everything was delicious, in fact, we promised ourselves we'd absolutely return as soon as we're in the area. A heartfelt compliment goes to Ludovica, the waitress who served us. Everyone is very kind. I highly recommend it. Daniele

21/03/2026: A slice of Naples (and the sea) in Ponte San Giovanni! If you're looking for a place where quality meets tradition, Ristorante Pizzeria La Gioiosa is an absolute must. I was there recently and the experience was impeccable from start to finish. The "Mergellina" Pizza: a journey of flavors I tried their Mergellina pizza and what can I say... amazing! A light, digestible dough with a honeycomb crust that screams "true Neapolitan school." The broccoli rabe topping is generous and flavorful, perfectly balanced. You can taste the top-quality ingredients. Fried Fish: Pure Crispyness I couldn't resist trying the mixed fried fish. Served in a very original way in the classic "cuoppo" paper wrapper inside the plate, it was dry, crispy, and not at all greasy. The shrimp and calamari were incredibly tender and fresh. The presentation is refined and inviting, accompanied by a fresh lemon salad that cleanses the palate. ​Ambience: Welcoming and spacious, perfect for both a romantic dinner and a large group of friends. ​Service: Friendly, prompt, and always smiling staff. ​Value for Money: Excellent, considering the freshness of the ingredients. If you're in the Perugia/Ponte San Giovanni area and crave well-prepared seafood or an unforgettable pizza, La Gioiosa is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back!

04/03/2026: Everything was excellent: the food was excellent and plentiful, the service was fast, friendly, and helpful, and the location was truly charming. 10 out of 10

26/02/2026: The €25 "tourist" menu is anything but a tourist trap. It includes a generous plate of charcuterie, two types of pasta, a main course with vegetables, two almond biscuits with Vin Santo, a quarter-liter of wine, mineral water, and coffee. All of high quality and served with a smile.

16/03/2026: We've had lunch at Tenuta several times. It's a beautiful place for any occasion, from family lunches or dinners to celebrations of any kind. The food is excellent, and the staff is very friendly and eager to please. Thanks to Michela for serving us so professionally and always ready to assist. We'll be back soon.

07/03/2026: Really beautiful and welcoming location, exquisite food, impeccable service

25/02/2026: Two Margherita pizzas, a platter, a dessert, a beer, a water, two coffees, €57. But the icing on the cake: do you want bread or focaccia? I opted for focaccia. 4 small slices, €4. Cover charge, €2. Let's just say expensive prices!

20/02/2026: The food is excellent, the staff are welcoming and friendly, the place is wonderful... what can I say... try it and believe it!!!

10/12/2025: We discovered this pizzeria by chance. We had a great time, we had a delicious mixed fry, super dry, and then the pizzas were fabulous, and the owner even offered us coffee at the end. Everyone was really kind.

30/11/2025: The pizza and fries were delicious. The price was excellent.

22/02/2026: Nice, quiet bar. Good stuff. I'd forgotten it was so close to me.

09/03/2026: Evocative setting, in a cave. Smiling, kind, and attentive staff. Food quality 10+! The cured meats and cheeses as appetizers were delicious. The grilled meat was plentiful. The suckling pig was tender and delicious. Trust me, it's a must-try if you want to eat and feel good ☺️

07/03/2026: This evening I went with my pregnant partner to this unique restaurant, carved into Etruscan caves. The welcome was excellent, the staff were incredibly courteous (everyone was smiling). The dishes were generous and beautifully presented! We had polenta with capocollo and fondue as an appetizer (EXCEPTIONAL), followed by a tasting of cured meats, cheeses, and bruschetta (abundant and made with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors). Then we moved on to umbrichelli pasta with scallop and pistachio (delicious), and wild boar in a sweet and sour sauce with caramelized onion! To finish, a ricotta and cream casserole and a profiteroles to drink: two bottles of water and a bottle of wine came to €80 (a more than reasonable price for the location and the good food). The cleanliness of the place, the attention to detail, and the customer service were all truly perfect! A special thanks to Sandra, the owner, and Luana, the waitress who served us. They were kind, helpful, and courteous! An evening to remember, for sure. Thank you ❤️

26/09/2025: We spontaneously stopped by for dinner last night. We opted for carbonara and pizza, and both were delicious. The service was very friendly and even made us cocktails that weren't on the menu. We highly recommend this restaurant! P.S.: The carbonara here is thankfully made the way it's traditional in Italy. No cream, no peas, no obscure meat fillings like in Germany. We also noticed that the restaurant isn't directly on the lake, even before we entered. Why other reviews have given it a downgrade for this reason is neither understandable nor comprehensible.

09/09/2025: Takeaway pizza... vegetarian, truly excellent quality.

18/03/2026: We stumbled upon it by chance and it was a very pleasant surprise. The best burger I've ever had! Everything was really good: pasta, fries, nuggets... Highly recommended, also for the kindness of the waitresses.

19/02/2026: Good pizza, excellent prices, friendly staff.

07/02/2026: Nice place, good service. TOP paella!

28/01/2026: Unbeatable value for money, nice place, fast and friendly service, more than generous portions, full marks!!!
