The cuisine offers updated Umbrian dishes, sometimes revisited with a confident and expert touch, with a vaguely French flavor. Such is the case with the lamb crepinette or the pigeon with foie gras. The egg, with creamed potato, truffle, and kataifi pasta, is delicious, as are the tagliatelle with black truffle. Simple and perfect. The wine list is extensive and satisfying. The bill is appropriate for the setting. An excellent place.

If the intent was to promote extreme slow food, they achieved their goal! ; Jokes aside, a little more attention to service timing would make the experience perfect! To be honest, the place was packed, making it difficult to keep track of everything. The dishes were extremely carefully crafted and unique, though it's a shame about the pre packaged gluten free sandwich. This is still high end dining, so the price is affected, but it's absolutely in line with the quality and attention to detail. We'll definitely be back.

It's intimate and cozy, the table lit by a small lamp; the dishes are excellent, solid, and enjoyable, without frills but never banal. The service is attentive and courteous. An excellent lunch. A well-deserved Michelin mention.
