The best restaurants Calitri

In this intimate place with red and white walls and stone vaults, partly dug in the rock, Filomena welcomes you warmly and tells you about the dishes of the day that she prepares with love and generosity. The menu is faithful to the culinary traditions of Calitri, with a few touches of originality here and there, and the raw materials are local. A must: the cannazze of Calitri, short pasta with holes in the middle, served with a tomato sauce or al ragù. Very good home-made desserts.

The restaurant room, dug out of the tufa, was used as a stable by the Zampaglione family, a noble family of the town that occupied the palace on the upper floor. On the menu you will find hearty regional cuisine with meats and cold meats of guaranteed quality and origin from the family butchery. Typical regional pasta dishes, such as cavatelli, a short pasta made with three fingers, accompanied by al ragù sauce. Calitri's caciocavallo is also on the menu, fried in filo pastry, with honey and sesame seeds.
