We had the Gorgonzola and Pear pizza and it was divine! The two meat dishes were just okay - the Guinea Fowl and the suckling pig were both flavorful but a bit dry. The chocolate cake was nicely done! I'd say that and the pizza made our meal most enjoyable! Impeccable service!

There was still no one in the restaurant. We got up and left. We will not be returning and I would not recommend it.

There were local wines that paired perfectly with our meal. Flavors paired with local mushrooms were rich & buttery, yet light. I'm a fan of a salad & the side mista salads did not disappoint. The interior of the restaurant felt very home-y -- like extended family pulling up for a meal. 11/10 recommend weaving your way through the streets to find this hidden gem!

One of the favorite restaurants in Orvieto that Michelin recognizes is Trattoria La Palomba…read more Located along cobblestone streets is the Cinti family's restaurant that first opened in 1965. This charming Italian trattoria features Umbrian specialities that include delicious house-made pasta topped with wild boar ragu.  It's a favorite of Enrica Cotarella, one of the sisters running Famiglia Coratella winery. Be sure to order a bottle or glass of her white Ferentano 2021 Coratella wine. This expressive white wine from Central Italy is made from Roscetto grapes fermenting in oak barrels to provide pleasing vanilla, oak, and buttery notes. It's ideal with pastas topped with shaved fresh black truffles. Be sure to finish with a plate of crunchy pistachio biscotti. Take what is left for your  coffee or cappuccino the next morning.

There are many things we liked about this restaurant, but for me, the best part of the experience…read morewas the service. We arrived a little later for lunch without a reservation and we were told the wait would be about 20 minutes. We were seated in 10 minutes and the wait staff was very helpful keeping us out of the sun during one of the hottest days of the summer. For appetizers we enjoyed a fresh caprese salad, a cheese board and mixed bruschetta plate. All of these were well-prepared, fresh and a great way to start the meal. Continuing with our plan to eat local specialties, we got two dishes with Umbricelli, a local fresh pasta, one with a sauce of roasted tomatoes and the other with tomatoes and garlic. Our other dinner guest had cinghiale prepared alla cacciatore. This was our first time having slow roasted wild boar, and it will not be the last. We had other plans for dessert, so we will have to wait until we return to Orvieto to try theirs and I am certain that it will be fantastic.

Communication was a tad difficult as our Italian isn't great, but the staff (maybe owners?) really try their best to communicate with you. They were so kind. Now on to the good stuff- the food! We had the asparagus and pecorino appetizer and it was to die for. I had the fava bean pasta and my husband had the wild boar ragu. Both were exceptional. House white Orvieto wine was really delicious. We had no room for dessert. It was one of the best meals of this trip to Italy, and if ever in the area again we will make a point to eat here again.
