Al Tripiciano

The desserts alone would bring me back. I’ve never had panna cotta this good, with very little sugar, no artificial syrups, and the freshest strawberries. The owner’s bitter orange tart was wonderful too. The €25 fixed menu was full of generous, high-quality local appetizers, including fresh ricotta, other cheeses, homemade arancini, and eggplant meatballs. The pasta was tasty, though a little salty. We later found out the owners pay close attention to salt and sugar, which they get right. I was amazed to find a restaurant so focused on people’s health. We visited on Sunday, June 6, 2021, and felt completely at home. The terrace looks out over the valley, with a breathtaking view, and the location was worth every mile. The mixed grill of local meats was very good, as were the sweet and sour rabbit, just like grandma used to make, and the pork tenderloin in orange sauce. The owners are kind and talented, the place is beautiful, and we’ll definitely return. So many compliments, and thank you for everything!

The food was delicious, made with quality local ingredients, and the prices were quite affordable. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely come back. The restaurant sits among greenery just outside the town of Tripi. As soon as we arrived, the owners made us feel welcome with their kindness and hospitality.

I enjoyed lunch so much that I booked another one for May 1st before we’d even left. Everything was excellent, except there was no ice for my Coke or water. That’s why I’m giving 4 stars. 😃

We ate fantastic food that was both healthy and local, and it was worth every penny. The setting is beautiful, the place is furnished with care, and the owners are very welcoming.
