Nestled in the hills about an hour outside of Rome is where you'll find this charming family owned…read morerestaurant serving up fresh made pastas, homemade cheese and cured meats, and so much more. My sister and I were taken to this place by a local guide during a private olive oil tour and he truly couldn't have picked a better place off the tourist beaten path. Every single bite that went into our mouth was absolutely delicious...this was honestly one of the meals I've had in Italy. We started with a selection of fresh mozzarella cheese before moving on to an expansive meats and cheese board that included a selection of items I'm still dreaming of. It was one of the best charcuterie boards I've ever enjoyed and our guide informed us that the meats and most of the cheeses were all made in-house. There was an amazing blood sausage that was out of this world. (the family also owns a sheep farm near the property) Next up were two melt in your mouth pasta dishes that get two thumbs up from me. We somehow managed to have just enough room left for dessert which consisted of tiramisu and a pana cotta topped with this amazing pistachio cream that was to die for. Luckily for me, the restaurant also offers a small aisle of local food items (pasta, olive oil, etc.) that you can purchase and you best believe I bought a jar of the pistachio cream to take home. We left this lunch so full we didn't even bother with dinner that night. If you find yourself in this neck of the woods be sure to stop in because you won't leave disappointed (or hungry).

The restaurant address maps accurately with Google maps; it is across from the "Calcata" sign at the main road entrance to the town. Although they have entrees with rabbit and wild boar we chose two vegetarian "primi piatti" options: A crepe made with chickpea flour, milk and egg, filled with cheese and arugula pesto and topped with diced tomatoes; and a mini-lasagna with ricotta cheese, egg and asparagus baked in a flat chickpea pasta crust. Both were outstanding, and different from anything else we had on our trip. Although not huge in quantity, they were exceptional in their quality, and at a reasonable price (9 euros each). The proprietors had just opened a few months before and it was clear they took great pride in their restaurant and the food they served. Although we did not ask specifically, it is possible many items on their menu were gluten-free. If that is a concern for you and you plan to visit Calcata, it would be worth inquiring through their e-mail address: larmeriaristogallerysrl@pec.it
