Agriturismo La Contessa

The tasting menu was a highlight: vegetable appetizers, cheeses with homemade jams, two very good first courses, grilled roast, then dessert and liquorice bitters. Everything was delicious. It's a lovely find for simple dishes and homemade products. The prices are good, the staff are really friendly, and service was quick. I'd definitely return.

We paid a more than fair price, and the wait staff were so kind, patient, and smiling throughout dinner. The "Cappello del Prete" was the standout, a tender, really delicious stew. The only thing that kept this from five stars was the awful acoustics in the glass-enclosed outdoor area. That's the one flaw I noticed. Otherwise, I highly recommend the restaurant.

We'd heard about their usual dishes, but because of Covid they had switched to a set menu each evening. Even so, the appetizers were such a hit that we ordered more than one portion, and the grill was excellent too. Recommended!

The place was welcoming, and the staff were friendly. What disappointed us was the food and the bill. For an "Agriturismo," there were only a few starters and main courses that really reflected that kind of place. The appetizers should have been the signature, but they felt more like "Gurmet" cuisine. They were good, just not what we had expected. The mixed roast meat that came next lacked both flavor and quantity. We paid a lot for what we ate, and the "Gurmet" Agriturismo didn't even include a cover charge, despite the paper napkins and tablecloths. Maybe things will improve in summer, when more local produce is available.
