I migliori ristoranti in Umbria

22/02/2026: After a long journey to Umbria, with the legitimate expectation of a gastronomic break befitting the region's fame, we decide to stop in Spello and have lunch at the Il Pinturicchio restaurant. The order is simple: two salads, water, wine, and two first courses, starting with truffle stringozzi from the menu (€16). The waiter emphatically suggests the option "with the most prized black truffle from Norcia," described as far superior in quality and aroma, with a €20 surcharge. We accept, confident in the authenticity of the product, worthy of the description. The salads arrive, as does the water; the wine does not. Despite the dining room being practically empty, we are forced to call the waiter back, distracted by his phone, before he completes the service. A seemingly minor detail, which already highlights a lack of attention to detail. Then the stringozzi with the "most prized truffle" arrives. The olfactory impact is nil: no scent, no trace of the aroma that should characterize the dish even before tasting. The situation worsens on the palate: the pasta is completely bland, devoid of flavor, character, and above all, any real perception of truffle. The flakes on the surface are purely decorative, devoid of any sensory feedback. We call the waiter, and shortly thereafter the owner intervenes. After clearly explaining the lack of flavor, aroma, and balance, the response is surprising: the owner openly admits both the dish's lack of flavor and the lack of truffle aroma and flavor, justifying it with phrases like "I offer what the suppliers send me," "it wasn't one of the best vintages," etc. A statement that doesn't alleviate but rather aggravates the criticality: if the inadequacy of the main ingredient is known, it becomes incomprehensible to propose it as the star dish of the day, with a surcharge and emphatic claims of its supposed excellence. Out of sheer necessity, not pleasure, we're forced to add Parmesan cheese, oil, and salt to make the dish at least edible, an intervention that effectively certifies the failure of the original preparation. Despite the explicit acknowledgement of the deficiencies, the bill is not followed by any correction, no commercial gesture, nor any concrete assumption of responsibility: €60 requested and paid in full. The most critical point is not the culinary error itself, but the discrepancy between promise and reality. The customer doesn't pay the supplier, but the restaurant, the selection of raw materials, the quality control, and the consistency between description and result. Presenting as "precious Norcia black truffle" an ingredient that the owner himself describes as lacking in aroma and flavor constitutes a serious communication and quality discrepancy, difficult to justify from a professional perspective. In short, the experience was disappointing on every level: inattentive service despite the empty dining room, overblown and misleading marketing, a dish lacking in character, and a complete lack of corrective action in the face of acknowledged issues. Given how frequently we return to the area, we feel we cannot recommend the restaurant to anyone seeking a dining experience consistent with Umbria's high culinary reputation.

07/03/2026: I wish I could actually give a review of the food, but unfortunately, having waited 80 minutes for an appetizer, I'll limit myself to one star. It could be the perfect place to accompany a game of Risk; 5-6 hours of play should be enough to enjoy a full dinner. The only positive note: the waitress tried to apologize for the situation, an attitude that absolutely didn't come across at the cashier, without even a single €1 of shame.

30/12/2025: Slightly off the main drag, but the food is excellent and the prices are fair. The service is good.

26/09/2025: An exceptional place! From the decor, the service, the atmosphere, the food, and the history of the place… 🤭 If you're in the center of Foligno and want to take a break from Italian food, then Moon Rise is the place to be. The sushi is unique, the fish super fresh, and each piece is presented with the utmost attention to detail. We loved it so much that my family and I went three times! They have new and used CDs for sale, as well as t-shirts, vinyl records, and memorabilia from your favorite bands. I was able to buy albums from my favorite bands that I couldn't afford when I was a teenager. If you love Asian food, a bohemian atmosphere, and music, you'll definitely be delighted here.

10/08/2025: Friendly and knowledgeable bartender, a wide and varied list of alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails, more than decent sushi, and plenty of treats for film and music lovers. What can I say? Five stars!

18/11/2025: We were guests at the restaurant, and had a wonderful time. We finally tasted the stuffed black celery, which was truly delicious. The other dishes (gnocchi, appetizer, and meat) were also very satisfying, excellent, and plentiful. The wine was also very good. Reasonable prices. The terrace is beautiful and offers a lovely view of the surrounding hills. I highly recommend it.

16/11/2025: Quality traditional Umbrian cuisine. My family and I only used the restaurant, which is located very close to Trevi's historic center. The environment is clean and well-maintained, with a family atmosphere. The menu offers a wide selection of traditional local dishes. We were fortunate enough to try the bruschetta with new extra virgin olive oil and the truly delicious hand-sliced ​​prosciutto. The homemade tortellini with fresh truffle were excellent, as were the meats in the main course. The fillet steak with green peppercorns was very tasty. The desserts are homemade, all very fresh. Generous portions and a good value. The staff was friendly and helpful.

06/10/2025: A lovely place that feels like a family! They sell lots of fresh pasta and special ravioli! You can eat there or buy pasta and ravioli by weight and prepare them at home. Highly recommended! This is a perfect place to eat right after the Shabbat market! Delicious food, a pleasant atmosphere and free water, which is really not something you can take for granted in a restaurant in Italy... In short, highly recommended!

27/09/2025: Truly a surprise! You can buy fresh, quality products or eat them on-site, choosing one of the condiments of the day. The place is very simple and self-service, with the counter service welcoming, friendly, attentive, and kind, even to the most hesitant customers. Excellent for a quick, tasty meal.

14/09/2025: Excellent breakfast with a wide selection of pastries. The price is a bit high.

11/09/2025: Lovely bakery with delicious selection of pastries & savoury items. The lady who served us spoke excellent English and was incredibly helpful and friendly!

18/02/2026: A good restaurant with a stunning view of the Tiber Valley. The fish is excellent.

16/02/2026: The place is beautiful and well-kept down to the last detail. The service is excellent and the food is delicious. The prices are perhaps a little above average, but if you choose quality and professionalism, you have to pay a little more. A well-deserved 5 stars.
