WOW! Bibenda in Assisi is incredible. We had an amazing experience with Nila doing a wine tasting…read more Nila is very generous with her tasting pours and is so thorough with details about each wine. We had our favorite wines with Nila! Nila was also so kind to our 3 teenagers and made sure we all had plenty of cheeses and meats to taste. We keep talking 2 weeks later about the goose meat (delicious!) If you want to meet an incredible Wine Master -- You must stop by Bibenda and spend some time with Nila. Inside The tasting room/wine shop is cozy and there is also outdoor seating. It is an unforgettable Italian experience.

This is my favorite wine bar in the world. In. The. World. It has been for five years, ever since…read moreI first found it while living in Perugia. To understand why its so special, you have to be kind of into wine and also a little adventurous. It's not for everyone. The place is run by a wonderful Italian couple who only speak Italian. Service is casual; it's normal for them to be sitting with other customers and talking. If you need something, you might have to ask. But here's why you should love it. One, they REALLY REALLY know Italian wine-- not just wine from the region (which is standard), but from all over. If you tell them what kind of experience you want, they will find the wine for you. Second, they have a lot of special small-production stuff. Third, they prepare a delicious tapas spread and its next to free (like 2 euros or something) with your wine. Finally, they'll open any bottle in the house as long as you're willing to get two glasses: that makes it the biggest, best by-the-glass wine list anywhere! We had five rounds in our last visit-- a Montefalco Rosso, an Aglianico, an Etna Rosso, an Valpolicella Riserva, and something else I don't remember. We loved everything, and it came to about €20 a person. You just couldn't do that in the U.S.. Anyway, it's our little secret but I hope others get to enjoy our favorite place too.

We'd already bought more wine than we should have been carrying but that didn't stop the owner from talking to us about all the local wines. He didn't try and sell us anything but went out of his way to suggest that we visit a small local winery, Podere Fontesecca, near where we were staying. I love Spello so next time I will be sure to stop for wine and snacks.

Staff is kind and patient, wine list is well curated with delicious offerings at a variety of price points (the house wine was delicious and inexpensive). The whole dining experience was a delight...the perfect place for a lively meal with friends or an intimate night with someone you love. They get busy, so reservations are suggested. But if there's a wait, they're happy to bring you a glass of wine while you make new friends out in the alley. All-in-all, one of Perugia's best intimate restaurants!!

Still busy for lunch and at first there weren't any outdoor tables but somehow one became available right after we arrived. Smaller interior with sectioned dining areas and a good sized outdoor eating area. Our server recommended the Buffalo Ricotta cheese with honey truffle-wow! It was exquisite-so light with honey truffle taking it over the top. They ran out of their Rose so we went with the recommended Red-Monica de Sardegna (delicate/spicy- Sardinian) For main, despite many enticing options, we ordered Lasagna Funghi and the Ricotta Ravioli stuffed with artichokes with Cacio Pepe cream. The lasagna was like no other we've had before -must try! The Ravioli was decadent and creamy-delicious! We were talked into the fresh Panna Cotta for dessert-simple, fruity and light -just right with our espresso and milk. Our server, Anna, took great care of us-kind and patiently provided recommendations and menu option details. One of the top restaurants in the Monti area and not to be missed!
