The pumpkin gnocchi had sold out at lunch time, so we came back for lunch today. Some of the best gnocchi I have ever had. We also ordered the zucchini flan in a subtle curry sauce that was also exceptional. For lunch, we also went for a second time for the suckling pig and added the steak. We highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!

They seemed to cater well to Orvietians and tourists alike. We hope they thrive for many years to come.

For starters, we shared the eggplant Parmesan and spinach salad. The eggplant portion was split for us (photo shows 1/2). It was deliciously crispy on top, tender and full of flavor and the accompanying sauces added to the experience (green was a touch minty and fresh, red was rich tomato-y and the cream (béchamel?) smoothed things out). The spinach salad with lightly breaded fried cheese was wonderful. No salt and pepper on the table because the chef seasoned everything perfectly. Our entrees were pappardelle with wild boar ragu which was rich, tender and delicious and the cod in a tomato and olive sauce. The cod was perfectly seared and the sauce was delicate and yum! Overall, a really great dinner. There are lots of restaurants in this small village and we are so glad we used Yelp to find this spot.

At the end, some people even ended up purchasing a few bottles from the hotel for the next night? I had a great night here.

Soraya enjoyed her rigatoni carbonara; I had a taste as the end and could confirm its quality. I did not try Abey's gnocchi with four cheeses but he and Soraya have demanded that their parents pick up gnocchi to bring home to Zanzibar -- they have added a new dish to their favorites.
