Our group of 8 looking for a place to have lunch drove right by this restaurant and decided to stop by. It was a good decision. We had some apps and first pasta dishes. It was good experience particularly the bucatini all'amatriciana and caio and pepe. The place got busy really quick of Italian patrons that the one waiter was struggling and towards the end of our meal, service started to suffer. However, the real question of any review is "will you come back again?" and that is resounding yes.

Stayed at The Castle Hotel, recommended by owners as rustic experience on a Sunday evening. Absolutely packed with locals, not a word of English spoken, so I relied on my phrase book.
I started with a delicious and beautifully cooked Risotto with Gorgonzola and Walnuts (7e 50). Followed by some well cooked lamb cutlets (13e).
The kids had pizza and enjoyed it.
Great value for money.

Great parking efficient and spacious. Excellent diligent and professional staff. More than decent food quality. The wine list is exciting. Only defect if I order 2 florentines of one kilo and 200 gr each from the name of the cut I also expect the part of the fillet. Excellent tagliate.ottimi the rum at the end of the meal. Medium-high bill, but it fits. Very nice bartender who offered us coffee while we paid the bill. We will return

We had an accomodation in the area, so we visited the restaurant as one of the closest.
What we had got was far above our expectations.
Food was excellent, we had pasta as first course and a steak as second. All of them very tasty and special.
Our waitress was very kind and perfectly spoke English.

We choose this restaurant to celebrate our last dinner in Italy, it comes out as perfect ending. This restaurant does not have English menu but the staff were so friendly & some of them can speak good English. I have no doubt that their steak is absolutely amazing by observing the way they cook, but their pasta surprised me! & if you happened to visit this restaurant on Thursday night, you must try their freshly-made Gnocchi (you will not be disappointed!)

Went for dinner with family. Ordered Mozzarella Bufala for appetizer, and it was the real thing! Just delicious! The typical roman tonnarelli cacio & pepe were excellent. The pizzas were fabulous! Also, what impressed me was very kind and attentive service. I will go back!

We were staying at the Castle Hotel and this restaurant was recommended; Castle provided the ride over to the restaurant and the restaurant provided the ride back to the hotel- fantastic! Food was excellent along with the service, they did have one young woman who spoke enough English to explain the menu. We would definitely go back.

MEAT TO FORGET :
No fine Italian meats, vented wine for standing light preservation. Gummy bread , baths not in the best condition and without guard . I asked who the Director was, they told me a guy in his early 20s. Never again .

High level restaurant, large car park, delicious food, great variety of meat, perfect cooking of the meat (as requested), delicate but tasty first courses, extremely tasty desserts, fast, professional and friendly service, average prices, excellent medium/high category restaurants. What more can I say? We will definitely be back to try other types of meat.
Overall, excellent

Excellent quality, meat I've never tried before, everything from the starter to the dessert was excellent, the homemade ice cream (with pistachio) was excellent.
Service and customer attention are rare to find.
