"Elegant and friendly staff but unfortunately incompetent, especially regarding the service of wine. We asked for advice without looking at the wine list and we opened a bottle recommended by the waiter. Once opened, we realized it was a 2007 we asked for the price, about 60€, of course no one had requested such a high level bottle but we decide not to make stories, being now open. It is opened, badly, breaking the cap and shaking it too by making the whole bottom go up making the wine unbeatable even if it has embossedly tried to filter it. We still decide not to make stories. In the end, we put on practically all the bottle that once in a cashier's case, we are beaten to 75€, not even 60€ as mentioned, although it is noted that the bottle could not be drunk because full of residues, we are offered coffee. Food was nothing special. Restaurant with a lot of scene but unfortunately the competence and knowledge of wine and service are not for everyone."

"Ristorante gourmet con rivisitazione dei piatti tradizionali. Interessante il menù del viaggiatore che prevede un percorso gastronomico lucano gustosissimo servito da un impeccabile servizio al tavolo. Consiglierei alla gentilissima padrona di casa di concludere con un piccolo assaggio di pasticceria fresca tipica e non secca anche perché quel tipo di biscotto è abbastanza diffuso in Italia e non stupisce il turista interessato alla cucina locale."

"Superior restaurant, spatial cuisine, excellent dishes, sublime flavors, traditional dishes are a must, especially those with raw pepper. Refined furnishings with large airy areas, beautiful views of the castle and the valley, the rooms are multiple and on different floors. Great for ceremonies and celebrations, but also for tea parties friends / family couples. Excellent wine and wonderful food. 5 stars deserved"

"restaurant pretty expensive. I can understand that “they have to get up” after the emergency covid and the problems that unfortunately we have all been through, but to charge a bottle of coke cola 6 euro I consider it a theft. but let's go on: we call the way, and they tell us that a 12 table is not there but they can fix us 6 out and 6 in the room, and the solution is fine. after a 30 minutes we arrive at the restaurant, we enter and see various outdoor tables free, we ask to stay all 12 together but the owner denies us the pleasure of staying together with our children. We continue: we ask the manu, the owner comes to the table and lists the available courses (poor for a restaurant of such rank,) praying not to take too different dishes, so in my table from 6 we take 4 small ears with sausage and 2 cavatelli “to the seafood”, and as according only 3 dishes of meat to the grill. I do not express myself on the ears because I did not taste them, and not even on the goodness of the dish to the seafood (they cook so and I do not like them, so it could be a subjective opinion,) but objectively to call a dish “caves to the seafood “ when inside I find a clam, a few pieces of calamarus and two shrimps, it seems abomination! The meat was good, I only tasted a piece and it wasn't bad. DOC wine: Aglianico del vulture, price doubled compared to the average, but there is because it is a restaurant (but they should have a written menu or an online download menu, just to prevent customers from finding a bad and appetizing surprise at the time of the account). We ask for the account, and for what we took was all right sum (I remember that we did not know the price of nothing. ) while we loosen up, we realize that only 6 covers had been counted, so immediately we come back and realize that the account of the 6 boys was not included. the lady thanks us for our honesty’ (and we would miss anything else, we are certainly not the types that go to the restaurant and escape we pay the second account and we go away, not without having noticed that the price is excessive and the quality of the famous “caves to the seafood” with only one fruit of the sea, drowned in the oil (cost of the dish: 12 euros) was very questionable. But, I repeat, maybe in venous oano eat a dish with seafood with only one clam..."
