Great views, good food and attentive service. We had dinner around 8pm and were the only guest. Paid 23 euros per person for a 2 course meal, 1/2lt wine and a tiramisu for dessert.

Perfect place to eat. We ate here for 2 consecutive days and had a variety of meals from lasagna, arabiata, polenta and mille feullie- all of which were excellent and a very reasonable price. The server/chef was great, kind and generous and if we’re back we’ll definitely be eating here again!

Stayed here recently as part of a cycling trip through the region. A great little hotel and restaurant with an amazing view. Dinner was clearly made with love and skill - excellent lasagna and polenta with local mushrooms. Would love to return someday.
