I SETTE CONSOLI
Read moreUmbrian specialities are in the spotlight in this elegant restaurant in the centre of Orvieto. The food is neat and very good. Taste the taglioli with porcini funghi and the risotto with parmesan cheese and white truffles, a real treat. Wild boar, duck (duck breast with honey and citrus fruits, tarragon and carrot purée with turmeric...) and wild deer meat. For cheese lovers, take the Pecorino di Pienza with honey to end your meal! The terrace offers a beautiful view of the cathedral. Professional service and prices accordingly.
TIPICA TRATTORIA ETRUSCA
Read moreWithin these 14th century walls, typical Orvieto dishes are cooked. In this tasty menu, the establishment offers homemade pasta, fresh grilled meat, mushroom specialities... Taste the delicious umbricelli al tartufo... truffles, truffles again! An old cellar inside keeps some very good wines, a cellar where visits with tasting take place. You can book by mail or by calling directly. At the table, the service is as good as what you will taste on your plate.
ANTICO BUCCHERO
Read moreA delightful address where you can enjoy yourself for a reasonable amount of money in a most pleasant and warm setting. On top of that, the service is attentive. This establishment is ideally located slightly set back from the main and tourist routes, facing the cinema. On the menu, the escalope with balsamic vinegar is a delight, but you will also have the choice of more traditional dishes such as pasta dishes with truffles, of course, risottos, meats and typical dishes of the region. Enough to spend a pleasant evening!
L'OSTE DEL RE
Read moreThe restaurant is taken by storm at noon by passing tourists (including Italians), as it is a very good option to eat at attractive prices. The waitresses are sometimes a little overwhelmed (the quality sometimes suffers from this great attendance), the setting is without fuss, but warm, and the cuisine enhances the local products with typical products of the region. The porchetta accompanied by a homemade beer is a real delight! Otherwise, choose the pasta dishes, a sure value.
GROTTE DEL FUNARO
Read moreSituated in an impressive old and beautiful tufa cave, with a pleasant piano bar. On the menu: grilled meat, wood oven baked pizza, homemade pasta... A tasting menu is entirely dedicated to chianina meat (an ancient Italian breed of cattle bred mainly in Tuscany, but also in Umbria). Outside there is a terrace on one of the most exquisite squares in the city. Excellent wine cellar and Umbrian specialities. One of the best addresses in town, with one drawback: the service leaves something to be desired..
TRATTORIA LA PERGOLA
Read moreSituated on a small alley near the Duomo, La Pergola has always been a family establishment: it offers a simple but quality regional cuisine. Delicious homemade pasta and local meats. In addition to a warm interior room coloured in green and yellow, this trattoria has a veranda (winter garden) and a small covered courtyard for eating in the sun. The service is fast and courteous. Ask for advice if you can't choose from the regional wine list! Good value for money.
