The food is good and refined, but not overdone. The quality/price ratio is excellent. The only flaw of the evening: after the main courses were served, the service became very slow. We'll be back!

While walking, I discovered this restaurant and, after a quick phone call for information, decided to have lunch. Although I had personally reserved an hour in advance, I later realized it wasn't necessary, on any given day, at the beginning of the week. As is customary in these parts, they work at lunchtime, mostly on Saturdays and a lot on Sundays. In any case, my goal was to get to know the cuisine and the wine list. A cuisine that uses local products, with a modern, gourmet twist, where not only the palate, but also the eye, plays its part. An interesting wine list, which, in addition to local wines, also finds room for other renowned ones. For my €45 tasting menu, I chose the Perticaia, a good Sagrantino di Montefalco. Between courses, I had the opportunity to chat with the manager, making the conversation not only technical, but pleasantly relaxing and informative. Thanks to the whole team.

The atmosphere is welcoming and refined, with a warm atmosphere that evokes tradition without sacrificing a touch of elegance. Traditional Marche dishes are presented with refined presentation, showcasing their authentic flavors. The vincisgrassi are excellent, prepared according to the traditional recipe and elegantly served, with a perfect balance between the richness of the ragù and the delicacy of the béchamel. The wine list is also excellent, well-stocked and featuring quality local labels, perfect to pair with the dishes.

We really appreciated her endless availability; she even helped us with the menu designs and the floral arrangements. The result? Everything was wonderful. Thank you so much again!
