How can I give 7 stars? Best restaurant in Ascoli hands down. People who complain about the lack of a la carte menu or the fact they bring a bottle of wine if you ask for a glass, don’t understand the culture and should not travel to Ascoli.

A wonderful experience. Every dish was so tasty, that possibly I haven't eaten so well during all my life (and I have lived a long life). Everything was exceptional, il salame di fegato, i cremini, la panna cotta, il vino.... thanks for cooking so well

yum yum yum, from the outside you can only see a very modest place, but the food here is so tasty, Gigi the owner has his own farms, all veges and meat from his farms, plus a genuine good heart, made this place a local favorite. all grilled meats are wonderful, I love the lamb and pig liver, don't miss the stewed meat as well, especially the stewed lamb with black olives, I am normally a seafood lover but Gigi changed me!

NB, 40€ pp fixed price. Good food and services. They really want to accommodate vegetarians in the menu.
